AD7714-5 OUTPUT NOISE
Table Ia shows the output rms noise and effective resolution for some typical notch and –3␣ dB frequencies for the AD7714-5 with
f
CLK␣ IN
= 2.4576␣ MHz while Table Ib gives the information for f
CLK IN
= 1␣ MHz. The numbers given are for the bipolar input ranges
with a V
REF
of +2.5␣ V and with BUFFER = 0. These numbers are typical and are generated at an analog input voltage of 0␣ V. The
numbers in brackets in each table are for the effective resolution of the part (rounded to the nearest 0.5␣ LSB). The effective resolu-
tion of the device is defined as the ratio of the output rms noise to the input full scale (i.e., 2 × V
REF
/GAIN). It should be noted that
it is not calculated using peak-to-peak output noise numbers. Peak-to-peak noise numbers can be up to 6.6 times the rms numbers
while effective resolution numbers based on peak-to-peak noise can be 2.5 bits below the effective resolution based on rms noise as
quoted in the tables.
The output noise from the part comes from two sources. The first is the electrical noise in the semiconductor devices used in the
implementation of the modulator (device noise). Secondly, when the analog input signal is converted into the digital domain, quan-
tization noise is added. The device noise is at a low level and is largely independent of frequency. The quantization noise starts at
an even lower level but rises rapidly with increasing frequency to become the dominant noise source. Consequently, lower filter
notch settings (below 100␣ Hz approximately for f
CLK IN
= 2.4576␣ MHz and below 40␣ Hz approximately for f
CLK IN
= 1␣ MHz) tend to
be device noise dominated while higher notch settings are dominated by quantization noise. Changing the filter notch and cutoff
frequency in the quantization-noise dominated region results in a more dramatic improvement in noise performance than it does in
the device-noise dominated region as shown in Table I. Furthermore, quantization noise is added after the PGA, so effective resolu-
tion is largely independent of gain for the higher filter notch frequencies. Meanwhile, device noise is added in the PGA and, there-
fore, effective resolution reduces at high gains for lower notch frequencies. Additionally, in the device-noise dominated region, the
output noise (in µV) is largely independent of reference voltage while in the quantization-noise dominated region, the noise is pro-
portional to the value of the reference. It is possible to do post-filtering on the device to improve the output data rate for a given
–3␣ dB frequency and also to further reduce the output noise.
At the lower filter notch settings (below 60␣ Hz for f
CLK IN
= 2.4576␣ MHz and below 25␣ Hz for f
CLK IN
= 1␣ MHz), the no missing
codes performance of the device is at the 24-bit level. At the higher settings, more codes will be missed until at 1␣ kHz notch setting
for f
CLK␣ IN
= 2.4576␣ MHz (400␣ Hz for f
CLK IN
= 1␣ MHz), no missing codes performance is only guaranteed to the 12-bit level.
