Power Supply Sequencing
Because of the nature of the CMOS process used to
fabricate the ICL7104, and the multiple power supplies
used, there are certain conditions of these supplies under
which a disabling and potentially damaging SCR action can
occur. All of these conditions involve the V+ supply (Norm
+5V) being more positive than the V++ supply. If there is
any possibility of this occurring during start-up, shut down,
under transient conditions during operation, or when insert-
ing a PC board into a “hot” socket, etc., a diode should be
placed between V+ and V++ to prevent it. A germanium or
Schottky rectifier diode would be best, but in most cases a
silicon rectifier is adequate.
Analog and Digital Grounds
Extreme care must be taken to avoid ground loops in the
layout of ICL8068 or ICL8052/7104 circuits, especially in
16-bit and high sensitivity circuits. It is most important that
return currents from digital loads are not fed into the analog
ground line. A recommended connection sequence for the
ground lines is shown in Figure 16.
