CONNECTING THE CONVERTER
Refer to Figure 5. Ground should be connected to the AGND
pin and DGND pin. Positive power supply V
DD
= +5 V dc ± 5%
should be connected to the AV
DD
pin and DV
DD
pin. Typical
values for the decoupling capacitors are 10 nF and 4.7 µF,
respectively. These capacitors should be placed as close to the
device pins as possible, and should be connected to both AV
DD
and DV
DD
. If desired, the reference oscillator frequency can be
changed from the nominal value of 10 kHz using FS1 and FS2.
Typical values for the oscillator decoupling capacitors are 20 pF.
Typical values for the reference decoupling capacitors are 10 µF
and 0.01 µF, respectively.

Figure 5. Connecting the AD2S1200 to a Resolver
The gain of the buffer depends on the type of resolver used.
Since the specified excitation output amplitudes are matched to
the specified Sin/Cos input amplitudes, the gain of the buffer is
determined by the attenuation of the resolver.
In this recommended configuration, the converter introduces a
V
REF
/2 offset in the Sin, Cos signals coming from the resolver.
Of course, the SinLO and CosLO signals may be connected to a
different potential relative to ground, as long as the Sin and Cos
signals respect the recommended specifications. Note that since
the EXC/
EXC
outputs are differential, there is an inherent gain
of 2×.
For example, if the primary to secondary turns ratio is 2:1, the
buffer will have unity gain. Likewise, if the turns ratio is 5:1, the
gain of the buffer should be 2.5×. Figure 6 suggests a buffer
circuit. The gain of the circuit is

Figure 6. Buffer Circuit
Separate screened twisted cable pairs are recommended for
analog inputs Sin/SinLO and Cos/CosLO. The screens should
terminate to REFOUT. To achieve the dynamic performance
specified, an 8.192 MHz crystal must be used.
