ADC108S052 TRANSFER FUNCTION
The output format of the ADC108S052 is straight binary. Code transitions occur midway between successive
integer LSB values. The LSB width for the ADC108S052 is V
A
/ 1024. The ideal transfer characteristic is shown
in Figure 35. The transition from an output code of 00 0000 0000 to a code of 00 0000 0001 is at 1/2 LSB, or a
voltage of V
A
/ 2048. Other code transitions occur at steps of one LSB.

ANALOG INPUTS
An equivalent circuit for one of the ADC108S052's input channels is shown in Figure 36. Diodes D1 and D2
provide ESD protection for the analog inputs. The operating range for the analog inputs is 0 V to V
A
. Going
beyond this range will cause the ESD diodes to conduct and result in erratic operation.
The capacitor C1 in Figure 36 has a typical value of 3 pF and is mainly the package pin capacitance. Resistor R1
is the on resistance of the multiplexer and track / hold switch and is typically 500 ohms. Capacitor C2 is the
ADC108S052 sampling capacitor, and is typically 30 pF. The ADC108S052 will deliver best performance when
driven by a low-impedance source (less than 100 ohms). This is especially important when using the
ADC108S052 to sample dynamic signals. Also important when sampling dynamic signals is a band-pass or low-
pass filter which reduces harmonics and noise in the input. These filters are often referred to as anti-aliasing
filters.
