APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
fastest expected input signal. Figure 20 shows the large
signal response of the circuit in Figure 19.
3. Measure noise performance of the complete circuit. A
good technique is to build one amplifier for each input,
even if only one will be used in the end application. Bias
both amplifier outputs to midscale, with the inputs tied
together. Verify that the noise is as expected, taking into
account the bandwidth of the LTC2440 inputs for the
OSR being used, the amplifier’s broadband voltage noise
and 1/f corner (if any) and any additional noise due to the
amplifier’s current noise and source resistance.
For more information on testing high linearity ADCs, refer
to Linear Technology Design Solutions 11.
Input Bandwidth and Frequency Rejection
The combined effect of the internal SINC
4
digital filter and
the digital and analog autocalibration circuits determines
the LTC2440 input bandwidth and rejection characteristics.
The digital filter’s response can be adjusted by setting
the oversample ratio (OSR) through the SPI interface or
by supplying an external conversion clock to the f
O
pin.
