shows a typical connection diagram when operating the ADC
in single-ended mode.
Differential Mode
The
Differential signals have some benefits over single-ended
signals, including noise immunity based on the common-
mode rejection of the device and improvements in distortion
performance. Figure 38 defines the fully differential analog
input of the AD7294.
The amplitude of the differential signal is the difference

of the differential signal is, therefore, −V

The common mode is the average of the two signals
The common mode is, therefore, the voltage on which the two
inputs are centered.
This results in the span of each input being V
voltage has to be set up externally, and its range varies with the

mode range decreases. When driving the inputs with an amplifier,
the actual common-mode range is determined by the output
voltage swing of the amplifier.

functionality of the AD7294.

Driving Differential Inputs
The differential modes available on V
require that V
equal signals that are 180° out of phase. The common mode on
which the analog input is centered must be set up externally. The
common-mode range is determined by V
and the particular amplifier used to drive the analog inputs.
Differential modes of operation with either an ac or dc input
provide the best THD performance over a wide frequency
range. Because not all applications have a signal preconditioned
for differential operation, there is often a need to perform a single-
ended-to-differential conversion.
Using an Op Amp Pair
An op amp pair can be used to directly couple a differential signal
to one of the analog input pairs of the AD7294. The circuit con-
figurations illustrated in Figure 39 show how a dual op amp can
be used to convert a single-ended bipolar signal into a differential
unipolar input signal.
The voltage applied to Point A sets up the common-mode voltage.
As shown in Figure 39, Point A connects to the reference, but any
value in the common-mode range can be the input at Point A to
set up the common mode. The AD8022 is a suitable dual op amp
that can be used in this configuration to provide differential
drive to the AD7294.
Care is required when choosing the op amp because the selection
depends on the required power supply and system performance
objectives. The driver circuits in Figure 39 are optimized for dc
coupling applications requiring best distortion performance.
The differential op amp driver circuit shown in Figure 39 is
configured to convert and level shift a single-ended, ground
referenced (bipolar) signal to a differential signal centered at
