CAP
CAP (pin 4) is the output of the internal reference buffer. A
2.2µF tantalum capacitor should be placed as close as
possible to the CAP pin from ground to provide optimum
switching currents for the CDAC throughout the conversion

tied HIGH will power-down the internal reference reducing
the overall power consumption of the ADS7806 by approxi-
mately 5mW.
The internal reference has approximately an 8 ppm/°C drift
(typical) and accounts for approximately 20% of the full-scale
error (FSE = ±0.5% for low grade, ±0.25% for high grade).
The ADS7806 also has an internal buffer for the reference
voltage. Figure 10 shows characteristic impedances at the
input and output of the buffer with all combinations of power-
down and reference down.
REF
REF (pin 5) is an input for an external reference or the output
for the internal 2.5V reference. A 2.2µF tantalum capacitor
should be connected as close as possible to the REF pin
from ground. This capacitor and the output resistance of REF
create a low-pass filter to bandlimit noise on the reference.
Using a smaller value capacitor will introduce more noise to
the reference, degrading the SNR and SINAD. The REF pin
should not be used to drive external AC or DC loads, as
shown in Figure 10.
The range for the external reference is 2.3V to 2.7V and
determines the actual LSB size. Increasing the reference
voltage will increase the full-scale range and the LSB size of
the converter which can improve the SNR.
