- Pin-compatible with AD7625BCPZ (vs AD7625BCPZ)
Design Notes
The AD7621BCPZ-RL7 operates from a single 2.5V supply. Use low-noise LDO regulators to supply AVDD and DVDD separately to minimize digital noise coupling into the analog supply. Place 0.1uF and 10uF decoupling capacitors close to each supply pin. The reference pin should be bypassed with a 10uF low-ESR capacitor to ensure stable operation.
For optimal performance, use a solid ground plane and separate analog and digital ground areas, connecting them at a single point near the ADC. Keep analog input traces short and shielded to reduce noise pickup. The differential inputs should be routed as a closely coupled pair to maintain common-mode rejection. Avoid routing digital signals under the analog input area.
Ensure the analog input signal settles within the acquisition time to avoid conversion errors. The input source impedance should be low (typically < 50 ohms) to drive the ADC's sample-and-hold circuit. Use an op-amp buffer if necessary. Also, avoid exceeding the absolute maximum ratings on any pin, as this can damage the device. Refer to the datasheet for the recommended input drive circuit.
