AD9280 - 1V input at AIN pin with 0.5V offset

Hi,

I have 1V input (0.5 offset) connected to AIN pin of the AD9280. The AD9280 is connected as per Figure 18 (Internal Reference - 1 V p-p Input span Top/Bottom mode).

Once I apply the 5V at AVDD and DRVDD, output D7 is stuck at high for about 80 seconds before it starts giving some sensible reading.

different signal on the ADC pin reads as below:

AVDD, DRVDD, MODE - 5V

Clock - works as expected at power up

VREF, REFSENSE, REFTS - 1V

REFTF wrt REFBF -1V.

REFTF wrt 0V = 3V

REFBF wrt 0V = 2V

D7 - 5V

D6 - 0V

D5 - 5V

D4 - 5V

this data line suggests the input is very high which is not. OTR line stays low all the time. TRI and STB lines are always low.

Why I am seeing data out stuck at this level for about sometime before it settles?

Have I got correct mode for the input type?? Please reply as soon as possible. Thanks,,

Hello,

Voltages appearing at non-digital output pins appear correct.

Input span should be 0 to 1 V at the AIN pin thus voltage inputs from approximately 0 to 1 V should provide digital codes of 0x00 to 0xFF.
One can monitor the OTR to determine the  -FS voltage and +FS voltage (referring to figure 32).  When OTR is reached at low end of -FS (around 0 V).............digital code should read 0x00 and on high end of +FS (approximately 1 V) it should read 0xFF.  Once your determine these voltage inputs.......you can then change voltage input level to fall within -FS and +FS and read codes that fall between these lower and upper limits.

  • Note.......comments above assume a DC input from a low source impedance input (op amp, ext).

  • Thanks for the reply. at no inputs the digital output should be low. Should I be doing anything to the CLAMP signal? Thanks
