DESCRIPTION
The ADS8344 is an 8-channel, 16-bit, sampling
Analog-to-Digital (A/D) converter with a synchronous serial
interface. Typical power dissipation is 10mW at a 100kHz
throughput rate and a +5V supply. The reference voltage
(VREF) can be varied between 500mV and VCC, providing a
corresponding input voltage range of 0V to VREF. The
device includes a shutdown mode that reduces power dissi-
pation to under 15µW. The ADS8344 is tested down to 2.7V
operation.
Low power, high speed, and an on-board multiplexer make
the ADS8344 ideal for battery-operated systems such as
personal digital assistants, portable multi-channel data log-
gers, and measurement equipment. The serial interface also
provides low-cost isolation for remote data acquisition. The
ADS8344 is available in a QSOP-20 or SSOP-20 package
and is ensured over the –40°C to +85°C temperature range.

DISCHARGE SENSITIVITY
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments
recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with appropriate
precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation proce-
dures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to
complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could
cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

ADS8344 11
SBAS139E
THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADS8344 is a classic Successive Approximation
Register (SAR) A/D converter. The architecture is based on
capacitive redistribution that inherently includes a sample-
and-hold function. The converter is fabricated on a 0.6µs
CMOS process.
The basic operation of the ADS8344 is shown in Figure 1.
The device requires an external reference and an external
clock. It operates from a single supply of 2.7V to 5.25V. The
external reference can be any voltage between 500mV and
+VCC. The value of the reference voltage directly sets the
input range of the converter. The average reference input
current depends on the conversion rate of the ADS8344.
The analog input to the converter is differential and is
provided via an 8-channel multiplexer. The input can be
provided in reference to a voltage on the COM pin (which
is generally ground) or differentially by using four of the
eight input channels (CH0 - CH7). The particular configura-
tion is selectable via the digital interface.

ANALOG INPUT
See Figure 2 for a block diagram of the input multiplexer on
the ADS8344. The differential input of the converter is
derived from one of the eight inputs in reference to the COM
pin, or four of the eight inputs. Table I and Table II show the
relationship between the A2, A1, A0, and SGL/DIF control
bits and the configuration of the analog multiplexer. The
control bits are provided serially via the DIN pin (see the
Digital Interface section of this data sheet for more details).
When the converter enters the hold mode, the voltage
difference between the +IN and –IN inputs is captured on
the internal capacitor array (see Figure 2). The voltage on
the –IN input is limited between –0.2V and 1.25V, allowing
the input to reject small signals that are common to both the
+IN and –IN input. The +IN input has a range of –0.2V to
+VCC + 0.2V.
The input current on the analog inputs depends on the conver-
sion rate of the device. During the sample period, the source
must charge the internal sampling capacitor (typically 25pF).
After the capacitor has been fully charged, there is no further
input current. The rate of charge transfer from the analog
source to the converter is a function of conversion rate.

REFERENCE INPUT
The external reference sets the analog input range. The
ADS8344 will operate with a reference in the range of
100mV to +VCC. Keep in mind that the analog input is the
difference between the +IN input and the –IN input, as
shown in Figure 2. For example, in the single-ended mode,
a 1.25V reference with the COM pin grounded, the selected
input channel (CH0 - CH7) will properly digitize a signal in
the range of 0V to 1.25V. If the COM pin is connected to
0.5V, the input range on the selected channel is 0.5V to
1.75V.
There are several critical items concerning the reference
input and its wide-voltage range. As the reference voltage is
reduced, the analog voltage weight of each digital output
code is also reduced. This is often referred to as the LSB

(Least Significant Bit) size and is equal to the reference
voltage divided by 65536. Any offset or gain error inherent
in the A/D converter will appear to increase, in terms of LSB
size, as the reference voltage is reduced. For example, if the
offset of a given converter is 2LSBs with a 2.5V reference,
then it will typically be 10LSBs with a 0.5V reference. In
each case, the actual offset of the device is the same,
76.3µV.
Likewise, the noise or uncertainty of the digitized output
will increase with lower LSB size. With a reference voltage
of 500mV, the LSB size is 7.6µV. This level is below the
internal noise of the device. As a result, the digital output
code will not be stable and will vary around a mean value by
a number of LSBs. The distribution of output codes will be
gaussian and the noise can be reduced by simply averaging
consecutive conversion results or applying a digital filter.
With a lower reference voltage, care should be taken to
provide a clean layout including adequate bypassing, a clean
(low-noise, low-ripple) power supply, a low-noise reference,
and a low-noise input signal. Because the LSB size is lower,
the converter will also be more sensitive to nearby digital
signals and electromagnetic interference.
The voltage into the VREF input is not buffered and directly
drives the Capacitor Digital-to-Analog Converter (CDAC)
portion of the ADS8344. Typically, the input current is
13µA with a 2.5V reference. This value will vary by
microamps depending on the result of the conversion. The
reference current diminishes directly with both conversion
rate and reference voltage. As the current from the reference
is drawn on each bit decision, clocking the converter more
quickly during a given conversion period will not reduce
overall current drain from the reference.
DIGITAL INTERFACE
The ADS8344 has a four-wire serial interface compatible
with several microprocessor families (note that the digital
inputs are over-voltage tolerant up to +5.5V, regardless of
+VCC). Figure 3 shows the typical operation of the ADS8344
digital interface.
Most microprocessors communicate using 8-bit transfers;
the ADS8344 can complete a conversion with three such
transfers, for a total of 24 clock cycles on the DCLK input,
provided the timing is as shown in Figure 3.

The first eight clock cycles are used to provide the control
byte via the DIN pin. When the converter has enough
information about the following conversion to set the input
multiplexer appropriately, it enters the acquisition (sample)
mode. After four more clock cycles, the control byte is
complete and the converter enters the conversion mode. At
this point, the input sample-and-hold goes into the Hold
mode. The next sixteen clock cycles accomplish the actual
A/D conversion.
Control Byte
See Figure 3 for placement and order of the control bits
within the control byte. Tables III and IV give detailed
information about these bits. The first bit, the “S” bit, must
always be HIGH and indicates the start of the control byte.
The ADS8344 will ignore inputs on the DIN pin until the
START bit is detected. The next three bits (A2-A0) select
the active input channel or channels of the input multiplexer
(see Tables I and II and Figure 2).

HIGH, the device is always powered up. If both PD1 and
PD0 are LOW, the device enters a power-down mode
between conversions. When a new conversion is initiated,
the device will resume normal operation instantly—no delay
is needed to allow the device to power up and the very first
conversion will be valid.
Clock Modes
The ADS8344 can be used with an external serial clock or an
internal clock to perform the successive-approximation con-
version. In both clock modes, the external clock shifts data in
and out of the device. Internal clock mode is selected when
PD1 is HIGH and PD0 is LOW.
If the user decides to switch from one clock mode to the other,
an extra conversion cycle will be required before the
ADS8344 can switch to the new mode. The extra cycle is
required because the PD0 and PD1 control bits need to be
written to the ADS8344 prior to the change in clock modes.
When power is first applied to the ADS8344, the user must
set the desired clock mode. It can be set by writing PD1
= 1 and PD0 = 0 for internal clock mode or PD1 = 1 and PD0
= 1 for external clock mode. After enabling the required
clock mode, only then should the ADS8344 be set to power-
down between conversions (i.e., PD1 = PD0 = 0). The
ADS8344 maintains the clock mode it was in prior to
entering the power-down modes.
External Clock Mode
In external clock mode, the external clock not only shifts data
in and out of the ADS8344, it also controls the A/D conversion
steps. BUSY will go HIGH for one clock period after the last
bit of the control byte is shifted in. Successive-approximation
bit decisions are made and appear at DOUT on each of the next
16 DCLK falling edges (see Figure 3). Figure 4 shows the
BUSY timing in external clock mode.
The SGL/DIF-bit controls the multiplexer input mode: ei-
ther in single-ended mode, where the selected input channel
is referenced to the COM pin, or in differential mode, where
the two selected inputs provide a differential input.
See Tables I and II and Figure 2 for more information. The
last two bits (PD1 - PD0) select the power-down mode and
Clock mode, as shown in Table V. If both PD1 and PD0 are

TA = –40°C to +85°C, CLOAD = 50pF).
Since one clock cycle of the serial clock is consumed with
BUSY going HIGH (while the MSB decision is being
made), 16 additional clocks must be given to clock out all 16
bits of data; thus, one conversion takes a minimum of 25
clock cycles to fully read the data. Since most microproces-
sors communicate in 8-bit transfers, this means that an
additional transfer must be made to capture the LSB.
There are two ways of handling this requirement. One is
where the beginning of the next control byte appears at the
same time the LSB is being clocked out of the ADS8344
(see Figure 3). This method allows for maximum throughput
and 24 clock cycles per conversion.
The other method is shown in Figure 5, which uses 32 clock
cycles per conversion; the last seven clock cycles simply
shift out zeros on the DOUT line. BUSY and DOUT go into a
high-impedance state when CS goes HIGH; after the next
CS falling edge, BUSY will go LOW.
Internal Clock Mode
In internal clock mode, the ADS8344 generates its own
conversion clock internally. This relieves the microproces-
sor from having to generate the SAR conversion clock and
allows the conversion result to be read back at the processor’s
convenience, at any clock rate from 0MHz to 2.0MHz.
BUSY goes LOW at the start of a conversion and then
returns HIGH when the conversion is complete. During the
conversion, BUSY will remain LOW for a maximum of 8µs.
Also, during the conversion, DCLK should remain LOW to
achieve the best noise performance. The conversion result is
stored in an internal register; the data may be clocked out of
this register any time after the conversion is complete.

If CS is LOW when BUSY goes LOW following a conver-
sion, the next falling edge of the external serial clock will
write out the MSB on the DOUT line. The remaining bits
(D14-D0) will be clocked out on each successive clock cycle
following the MSB. If CS is HIGH when BUSY goes LOW
then the DOUT line will remain in tri-state until CS goes
LOW, as shown in Figure 6. CS does not need to remain
LOW once a conversion has started. Note that BUSY is not
tri-stated when CS goes HIGH in internal clock mode.
Data can be shifted in and out of the ADS8344 at clock rates
exceeding 2.4MHz, provided that the minimum acquisition
time tACQ, is kept above 1.7µs.

Data Format
The ADS8344 output data is in straight binary format, as
shown in Figure 7. This figure shows the ideal output code
for the given input voltage and does not include the effects
of offset, gain, or noise.
POWER DISSIPATION
There are three power modes for the ADS8344: full-power
(PD1 - PD0 = 11B), auto power-down (PD1 - PD0 = 00B),
and shutdown (SHDN LOW). The effects of these modes
varies depending on how the ADS8344 is being operated.
For example, at full conversion rate and 24-clocks per
conversion, there is very little difference between
full-power mode and auto power-down; a shutdown will not
lower power dissipation.
When operating at full-speed and 24-clocks per conversion
(see Figure 3), the ADS8344 spends most of its time
acquiring or converting. There is little time for auto
power-down, assuming that this mode is active. Thus, the
difference between full-power mode and auto power-down
is negligible. If the conversion rate is decreased by simply
slowing the frequency of the DCLK input, the two modes
remain approximately equal. However, if the DCLK fre-
quency is kept at the maximum rate during a conversion, but
conversions are simply done less often, then the difference
between the two modes is dramatic. In the latter case, the
converter spends an increasing percentage of its time in
power-down mode (assuming the auto power-down mode is
active).
If DCLK is active and CS is LOW while the ADS8344 is in
auto power-down mode, the device will continue to dissipate
some power in the digital logic. The power can be reduced
to a minimum by keeping CS HIGH.
Operating the ADS8344 in auto power-down mode will
result in the lowest power dissipation, and there is no
conversion time “penalty” on power-up. The very first
conversion will be valid. SHDN can be used to force an
immediate power-down.
NOISE
The noise floor of the ADS8344 itself is extremely low, as
shown in Figures 8 thru 11, and is much lower than compet-
ing A/D converters. The ADS8344 was tested at both 5V
and 2.7V, and in both the internal and external clock modes.
A low-level DC input was applied to the analog-input pins
and the converter was put through 5,000 conversions. The
digital output of the A/D converter will vary in output code
due to the internal noise of the ADS8344. This is true for all
16-bit SAR-type A/D converters. Using a histogram to plot
the output codes, the distribution should appear bell-shaped
with the peak of the bell curve representing the nominal code
for the input value. The ±1σ, ±2σ, and ±3σ distributions will
represent the 68.3%, 95.5%, and 99.7%, respectively, of all
codes. The transition noise can be calculated by dividing the
number of codes measured by 6 and this will yield the ±3σ
distribution, or 99.7%, of all codes. Statistically, up to 3
codes could fall outside the distribution when executing
1,000 conversions. The ADS8344, with < 3 output codes for
the ±3σ distribution, will yield a < ±0.5LSB transition noise
at 5V operation. Remember, to achieve this low-noise per-
formance, the peak-to-peak noise of the input signal and
reference must be < 50µV.

sion results will reduce the transition noise by 1/2 to
±0.25LSBs. Averaging should only be used for input signals
with frequencies near DC.
For AC signals, a digital filter can be used to low-pass filter
and decimate the output codes. This works in a similar
manner to averaging: for every decimation by 2, the
signal-to-noise ratio will improve 3dB.
LAYOUT
For optimum performance, care should be taken with the
physical layout of the ADS8344 circuitry. This is particu-
larly true if the reference voltage is LOW and/or the conver-
sion rate is HIGH.
The basic SAR architecture is sensitive to glitches or sudden
changes on the power supply, reference, ground connec-
tions, and digital inputs that occur just prior to latching the
output of the analog comparator. Thus, during any single
conversion for an n-bit SAR converter, there are n “win-
dows” in which large external transient voltages can easily
affect the conversion result. Such glitches might originate
from switching power supplies, nearby digital logic, and
high-power devices. The degree of error in the digital output
depends on the reference voltage, layout, and the exact
timing of the external event. The error can change if the
external event changes in time with respect to the DCLK
input.
With this in mind, power to the ADS8344 should be clean
and well bypassed. A 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitor should
be placed as close to the device as possible. In addition, a
1µF to 10µF capacitor and a 5 or 10 series resistor may
be used to low-pass filter a noisy supply.
The reference should be similarly bypassed with a 0.1µF
capacitor. Again, a series resistor and large capacitor can be
used to low-pass filter the reference voltage. If the reference
voltage originates from an op amp, make sure that it can
drive the bypass capacitor without oscillation (the series
resistor can help in this case). The ADS8344 draws very
little current from the reference on average, but it does place
larger demands on the reference circuitry over short periods
of time (on each rising edge of DCLK during a conversion).
The ADS8344 architecture offers no inherent rejection of
noise or voltage variation in regards to the reference input.
This is of particular concern when the reference input is tied
to the power supply. Any noise and ripple from the supply
will appear directly in the digital results. While
high-frequency noise can be filtered out as discussed in the
previous paragraph, voltage variation due to line frequency
(50Hz or 60Hz) can be difficult to remove.
The GND pin should be connected to a clean ground point.
In many cases, this will be the “analog” ground. Avoid
connections that are too near the grounding point of a
microcontroller or digital signal processor. If needed, run a
ground trace directly from the converter to the power-supply
entry point. The ideal layout will include an analog ground
plane dedicated to the converter and associated analog
circuitry.
AVERAGING
The noise of the A/D converter can be compensated by
averaging the digital codes. By averaging conversion result s,
transition noise will be reduced by a factor of 1/n, where n
is the number of averages. For example, averaging 4 conver-

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46C and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48B. Buyers should
obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All
semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time
of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components which meet ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. Components which
have not been so designated are neither designed nor intended for automotive use; and TI will not be responsible for any failure of such
components to meet such requirements.
