APPLICATION INFORMATION
Differential Inputs
With differential inputs, the ADC no longer converts just a
single voltage but rather the difference between two volt-
ages. In this case, the voltage on the selected “+” input is
still sampled and held and therefore may be rapidly time
varying just as in single-ended mode. However, the volt-
age on the selected “–” input must remain constant and be
free of noise and ripple throughout the conversion time.
Otherwise, the differencing operation may not be per-
formed accurately. The conversion time is 12 CLK cycles.
Therefore, a change in the “–” input voltage during this
interval can cause conversion errors. For a sinusoidal
voltage on the “–” input this error would be:
Where f(“–”) is the frequency of the “–” input voltage,

CLK. In most cases V
60Hz signal on the “–” input to generate a 1/4LSB error
(305 V) with the converter running at CLK = 200kHz, its
peak value would have to be 13.48mV.
ANALOG INPUTS
Because of the capacitive redistribution A/D conversion
techniques used, the analog inputs of the LTC1286/
LTC1298 have capacitive switching input current spikes.
These current spikes settle quickly and do not cause a
problem. However, if large source resistances are used or
if slow settling op amps drive the inputs, care must be
taken to insure that the transients caused by the current
spikes settle completely before the conversion begins.
“+” Input Settling
The input capacitor of the LTC1286 is switched onto “+”
input during the t
input signal within that time. However, the input capacitor
of the LTC1298 is switched onto “+” input during the
sample phase (t
1 1/2 CLK cycles before conversion starts. The voltage on
the “+” input must settle completely within t
LTC1286 and the LTC1298 respectively. Minimizing

“–” Input Settling
At the end of the t
“–” input and conversion starts (see Figures 1 and 7).
During the conversion, the “+” input voltage is effectively
“held” by the sample-and-hold and will not affect the
conversion result. However, it is critical that the “–” input
voltage settles completely during the first CLK cycle of the
conversion time and be free of noise. Minimizing R
and C2 will improve settling time. If a large “–” input
source resistance must be used, the time allowed for
settling can be extended by using a slower CLK frequency.
Input Op Amps
When driving the analog inputs with an op amp it is
important that the op amp settle within the allowed time
(see Figure 7). Again, the“+” and “–” input sampling times
can be extended as described above to accommodate
slower op amps. Most op amps, including the LT1006 and
LT1413 single supply op amps, can be made to settle well
even with the minimum settling windows of 6 s (“+”
input) which occur at the maximum clock rate of 200kHz.
Source Resistance
