AD7856
The AD7856 powers up from a full hardware or software
power-down in 5 s typ. This limits the throughput which the
part is capable of to 93 kSPS for the K grade and 113 kSPS for
the A grade when powering down between conversions. Figure
22 shows how power-down between conversions is implemented
using the CONVST pin. The user first selects the power-down
between conversions option by using the SLEEP pin and the
power management bits, PMGT1 and PMGT0, in the control
register, (see last section). In this mode the AD7856 automati-
cally enters a full power-down at the end of a conversion, i.e.,
when BUSY goes low. The falling edge of the next CONVST
pulse causes the part to power up. Assuming the external refer-
ence is left powered up, the AD7856 should be ready for normal
operation 5 s after this falling edge. The rising edge of CONVST
initiates a conversion so the CONVST pulse should be at least
5 s wide. The part automatically powers down on completion
of the conversion.
NOTE: Where the software CONVST is used, the part must be
powered up in software with an extra write setting PMGT1 = 0
and PMGT0 = 1 before a conversion is initiated in the next
write. Automatic partial power-down after a calibration is not
possible; the part must be powered down manually. If software
calibrations are to be used when operating in the partial power-
down mode, then three separate writes are required. The first
initiates the type of calibration required, the second write pow-
ers the part down into partial power-down mode, while the third
write powers the part up again before the next calibration com-
mand is issued.
Using the Internal (On-Chip) Reference
As in the case of an external reference, the AD7856 can power-
up from one of two conditions, power-up after the supplies are
connected or power-up from hardware/software power-down.

up calibration mode be disabled as explained above. When using
the on-chip reference, the power-up time is effectively the time
it takes to charge up the external capacitor on the REF
pin. This time is given by the equation:
where R
The recommended value of the external capacitor is 100 nF;
this gives a power-up time of approximately 150 ms before a
calibration is initiated and normal operation should commence.

internal switch opens to provide a high impedance discharge
path for the reference capacitor during power-down—see Figure
23. An added advantage of the low charge leakage from the
reference capacitor during power-down is that even though the
reference is being powered down between conversions, the
reference capacitor holds the reference voltage to within
0.5 LSBs with throughput rates of 100 samples/second and over
with a full power-down between conversions. A high input im-
pedance op amp like the AD707 should be used to buffer this
reference capacitor if it is being used externally. Note, if the
AD7856 is left in its power-down state for more than 100 ms,
the charge on C
time will increase. If this long power-up time is a problem, the
user can use a partial power-down for the last conversion so the
reference remains powered up.
POWER VS. THROUGHPUT RATE
The main advantage of a full power-down after a conversion is
that it significantly reduces the power consumption of the part
at lower throughput rates. When using this mode of operation
the AD7856 is only powered up for the duration of the conver-
sion. If the power-up time of the AD7856 is taken to be 5 s
and it is assumed that the current during power up is 12 mA
typ, then power consumption as a function of throughput can
easily be calculated. The AD7856 has a conversion time of
3.5 s with a 6 MHz external clock. This means the AD7856
consumes 12 mA typ, (or 60 mW typ V
every conversion cycle if the device is powered down at the end
of a conversion. If the throughput rate is 1 kSPS, the cycle time
is 1000 s and the average power dissipated during each cycle is
(8.5/1000)
the power consumption of the AD7856 as a function of through-
put. Table VII lists the power consumption for various through-
put rates.
