DISCUSSION OF
PERFORMANCE
The accuracy of a successive approximation A/D converter
is described by the transfer function shown in Figure 1. All
successive approximation A/D converters have an inherent
Quantization Error of 1/2 LSB. The remaining errors in the
A/D converter are combinations of analog errors due to the
linear circuitry, matching and tracking properties of the
ladder and scaling networks, power supply rejection, and
reference errors. In summary, these errors consist of initial
errors including Gain, Offset, Linearity, Differential Linear-
ity, and Power Supply Sensitivity. Initial Gain and Offset
errors may be adjusted to zero. Gain drift over temperature
rotates the line (Figure 1) about the zero or minus full scale
point (all bits Off) and Offset drift shifts the line left or right
over the operating temperature range. Linearity error is
unadjustable and is the most meaningful indicator of A/D

converter accuracy. Linearity error is the deviation of an
actual bit transition from the ideal transition value at any
level over the range of the A/D converter. A Differential
Linearity error of 1/2 LSB means that the width of each bit
step over the range of the A/D converter is 1 LSB, 1/2 LSB.
The ADC71 is monotonic, assuring that the output digital
code either increases or remains the same for increasing
analog input signals. Burr-Brown guarantees that these con-
verters will have no missing codes over a specified tempera-
ture range when short-cycled for 14-bit operation.
TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
The timing diagram (Figure 2) assumes an analog input such
that the positive true digital word 1001 1000 1001 0110
exists. The output will be complementary as shown in Figure
2 (0110 0111 0110 1001 is the digital output). Figures 3 and
4 are timing diagrams showing the relationship of serial data
to clock and valid data to status.
DEFINITION OF DIGITAL CODES
Parallel Data
Two binary codes are available on the ADC71 parallel
output; they are complementary (logic “0” is true) straight
binary (CSB) for unipolar input signal ranges and comple-
mentary offset binary (COB) for bipolar input signal ranges.
Complementary two’s complement (CTC) may be obtained
by inverting MSB (Pin 1).
Table I shows the LSB, transition values, and code defini-
tions for each possible analog input signal range for 12-, 13-
and 14-bit resolutions. Figure 5 shows the connections for
14-bit resolution, parallel data output, with 10V input.
