APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Each pipelined stage shown in Figure 1 contains an ADC,
a reconstruction DAC and an interstage residue amplifi er.
In operation, the ADC quantizes the input to the stage and
the quantized value is subtracted from the input by the
DAC to produce a residue. The residue is amplifi ed and
output by the residue amplifi er. Successive stages operate
out of phase so that when the odd stages are outputting
their residue, the even stages are acquiring that residue
and vice versa.
When ENC is low, the analog input is sampled differentially
directly onto the input sample-and-hold capacitors, inside
the “Input S/H” shown in the block diagram. At the instant
that ENC transitions from low to high, the sampled input is
held. While ENC is high, the held input voltage is buffered
by the S/H amplifi er which drives the fi rst pipelined ADC
stage. The fi rst stage acquires the output of the S/H dur-
ing this high phase of ENC. When ENC goes back low, the
fi rst stage produces its residue which is acquired by the
second stage. At the same time, the input S/H goes back
to acquiring the analog input. When ENC goes back high,
the second stage produces its residue which is acquired
by the third stage. An identical process is repeated for the
third and fourth stages, resulting in a fourth stage residue
that is sent to the fi fth stage ADC for fi nal evaluation.
Each ADC stage following the fi rst has additional range to
accommodate fl ash and amplifi er offset errors. Results
from all of the ADC stages are digitally synchronized such
that the results can be properly combined in the correction
logic before being sent to the output buffer.
SAMPLE/HOLD OPERATION AND INPUT DRIVE
Sample/Hold Operation
Figure 2 shows an equivalent circuit for the LTC2242-12
CMOS differential sample-and-hold. The analog inputs are
connected to the sampling capacitors (C

voltage is held on the sampling capacitors. During the
hold phase when ENC is high, the sampling capacitors are
disconnected from the input and the held voltage is passed
to the ADC core for processing. As ENC transitions from
high to low, the inputs are reconnected to the sampling
capacitors to acquire a new sample. Since the sampling
capacitors still hold the previous sample, a charging glitch
proportional to the change in voltage between samples will
be seen at this time. If the change between the last sample
and the new sample is small, the charging glitch seen at
the input will be small. If the input change is large, such
as the change seen with input frequencies near Nyquist,
then a larger charging glitch will be seen.
Common Mode Bias
For optimal performance the analog inputs should be driven
differentially. Each input should swing ±0.5V for the 2V
range or ±0.25V for the 1V range, around a common mode
voltage of 1.25V. The V
