The ADS1274/78 uses switched-capacitor circuitry to
measure the input voltage. Internal capacitors are
charged by the inputs and then discharged. Figure 67
shows a conceptual diagram of these circuits. Switch
S
2
represents the net effect of the modulator circuitry
in discharging the sampling capacitor; the actual
implementation is different. The timing for switches S
1
and S
2
is shown in Figure 68. The sampling time
(t
SAMPLE
) is the inverse of modulator sampling
frequency (f
MOD
) and is a function of the mode, the

VOLTAGE REFERENCE INPUTS
(VREFP, VREFN)
The voltage reference for the ADS1274/78 ADC is
the differential voltage between VREFP and VREFN:
V
REF
= (VREFP – VREFN). The voltage reference is
common to all channels. The reference inputs use a
structure similar to that of the analog inputs with the
equivalent circuitry on the reference inputs shown in
Figure 70. As with the analog inputs, the load
presented by the switched capacitor can be modeled
with an effective impedance, as shown in Figure 71.
However, the reference input impedance depends on
the number of active (enabled) channels in addition to
f
MOD
. As a result of the change of reference input
impedance caused by enabling and disabling
channels, the regulation and setting time of the

The average load presented by the switched
capacitor input can be modeled with an effective
differential impedance, as shown in Figure 69. Note
that the effective impedance is a function of f
