Design Notes
Ensure clean power supplies for AVDD and DVDD. Use low-noise LDOs, such as the ADP150, to power the analog supply and minimize noise coupling. Decouple each supply pin with 0.1uF and 10uF capacitors placed close to the device. The separate logic supply allows independent digital voltage levels, but avoid digital noise from coupling into the analog supply.
For optimal performance, use a solid ground plane and separate analog and digital ground planes if possible. Place the ADAQ4381-4 close to the signal source to minimize trace length and reduce noise pickup. Route differential input pairs with matched lengths and avoid crossing digital traces. Use via stitching to connect ground planes and reduce EMI.
Do not exceed the absolute maximum ratings for supply voltages. Ensure the reference pin is properly bypassed with a 10uF capacitor to maintain stability. The SPI interface should be operated within the specified timing to avoid data corruption. Avoid floating unused inputs; tie them to ground or a defined voltage.
