AD7933/AD7934
Track-and-Hold Acquisition Time
The track-and-hold amplifier returns to track mode at the end
of conversion. The track-and-hold acquisition time is the time
required for the output of the track-and-hold amplifier to reach
its final value, within ±½ LSB, after the end of conversion.
Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio (SINAD)
This is the measured ratio of signal-to-noise and distortion at
the output of the ADC. The signal is the rms amplitude of the
fundamental. Noise is the sum of all nonfundamental signals up
to half the sampling frequency (f
ratio is dependent on the number of quantization levels in the
digitization process; the more levels, the smaller the
quantization noise.
The theoretical signal-to-noise and distortion ratio for an ideal
N-bit converter with a sine wave input is given by
Thus, for a 12-bit converter, SINAD is 74 dB, and for a 10-bit
converter, SINAD is 62 dB.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of harmonics to the fundamen-
tal. For the AD7933/AD7934, it is defined as

Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise
Peak harmonic or spurious noise is defined as the ratio of the
rms value of the next largest component in the ADC output
spectrum (up to f
the fundamental. Normally, the value of this specification is
determined by the largest harmonic in the spectrum, but for
ADCs where the harmonics are buried in the noise floor, it is a
noise peak.
Intermodulation Distortion
With inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and
fb, any active device with nonlinearities create distortion products
at sum and difference frequencies of mfa ± nfb where m, n = 0,
1, 2, 3, and so on. Intermodulation distortion terms are those
for which neither m nor n are equal to zero. For example, the
second-order terms include (fa + fb) and (fa − fb), while the
third-order terms include (2fa + fb), (2fa − fb), (fa + 2fb), and
(fa − 2fb).
The AD7933/AD7934 is tested using the CCIF standard where
two input frequencies near the top end of the input bandwidth
are used. In this case, the second-order terms are usually
distanced in frequency from the original sine waves, while the
third-order terms are usually at a frequency close to the input
frequencies. As a result, the second- and third-order terms are
specified separately. The intermodulation distortion is
calculated per the THD specification, as the ratio of the rms
sum of the individual distortion products to the rms amplitude
of the sum of the fundamentals, expressed in dB.
