VOLTAGE REFERENCE INPUT
The AD7684 voltage reference input, REF, has a dynamic input
impedance. It should therefore be driven by a low impedance
source with efficient decoupling between the REF and GND
pins, as explained in more detail in the Layout section.
When REF is driven by a very low impedance source (for
example, an unbuffered reference voltage such as the low
temperature drift
the
chip capacitor is appropriate for optimum performance.
If desired, smaller reference decoupling capacitor values down
to 2.2 μF can be used with minimal impact on performance,
especially DNL.
POWER SUPPLY
The AD7684 powers down automatically at the end of each
conversion phase and therefore the power scales linearly with
the sampling rate, as shown in Figure 24. This makes the part
ideal for low sampling rates (even of a few Hz) and low battery
powered applications.
DIGITAL INTERFACE
The AD7684 is compatible with SPI, QSPI, digital hosts, and
DSPs (for example, Blackfin® ADSP-BF53x or ADSP-219x). The
connection diagram is shown in Figure 25, and the corresponding
timing is given in Figure 2.

A falling edge on CS initiates a conversion and the data transfer.

low. The data bits are then clocked MSB first by subsequent
DCLOCK falling edges. The data is valid on both DCLOCK
edges. Although the rising edge can be used to capture the data,
a digital host also using the DCLOCK falling edge allows a
faster reading rate, provided it has an acceptable hold time.
LAYOUT
The printed circuit board housing the AD7684 should be
designed so that the analog and digital sections are separated
and confined to certain areas of the board. The pinout of the
AD7684 with all its analog signals on the left side and all its
digital signals on the right side eases this task.
Avoid running digital lines under the device because these couple
noise onto the die, unless a ground plane under the AD7684 is
used as a shield. Fast switching signals, such as CS or clocks,
should never run near analog signal paths. Crossover of digital
and analog signals should be avoided.
At least one ground plane should be used. It could be common
or split between the digital and analog sections. In such a case,
it should be joined underneath the AD7684.
The AD7684 voltage reference input REF has a dynamic input
impedance and should be decoupled with minimal parasitic
inductances. This is done by placing the reference decoupling
ceramic capacitor close to, and ideally right up against, the REF
and GND pins and by connecting these pins with wide, low
impedance traces.
Finally, the power supply, VDD, of the AD7684 should be
decoupled with a ceramic capacitor, typically 100 nF, and placed
close to the AD7684. It should be connected using short and
large traces to provide low impedance paths and reduce the
effect of glitches on the power supply lines.
EVALUATING THE PERFORMANCE OF THE AD7684
Other recommended layouts for the AD7684 are outlined in the
evaluation board for the AD7684 (EVAL-AD7684CBZ). The
evaluation board package includes a fully assembled and tested
evaluation board, documentation, and software for controlling
the board from a PC via the
