ADC0801/ADC0802/ADC0803/ADC0804/ADC0805
8-Bit µP Compatible A/D Converters
General Description
The ADC0801, ADC0802, ADC0803, ADC0804 and
ADC0805 are CMOS 8-bit successive approximation A/D
converters that use a differential potentiometric
laddersimilar to the 256R products. These converters are
designed to allow operation with the NSC800 and INS8080A
derivative control bus with TRI-STATE output latches directly
driving the data bus. These A/Ds appear like memory loca-
tions or I/O ports to the microprocessor and no interfacing
logic is needed.
Differential analog voltage inputs allow increasing the
common-mode rejection and offsetting the analog zero input
voltage value. In addition, the voltage reference input can be
adjusted to allow encoding any smaller analog voltage span
to the full 8 bits of resolution.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. DC and AC electrical specifications do not apply when operating
the device beyond its specified operating conditions.
Note 2: All voltages are measured with respect to Gnd, unless otherwise specified. The separate A Gnd point should always be wired to the D Gnd.
Note 3: A zener diode exists, internally, from VCC to Gnd and has a typical breakdown voltage of 7 VDC.
Note 4: For VIN(−)VIN(+) the digital output code will be 0000 0000.Two on-chip diodes are tied to each analog input (see block diagram) which will forward conduct
for analog input voltages one diode drop below ground or one diode drop greater than the VCC supply. Be careful, during testing at low VCC levels (4.5V), as high
level analog inputs (5V) can cause this input diode to conduct–especially at elevated temperatures, and cause errors for analog inputs near full-scale. The spec
allows 50 mV forward bias of either diode. This means that as long as the analog VIN does not exceed the supply voltage by more than 50 mV, the output code will
be correct. To achieve an absolute 0 VDC to5V
DC input voltage range will therefore require a minimum supply voltage of 4.950 VDC over temperature variations,
initial tolerance and loading.
Note 5: Accuracy is guaranteed at fCLK = 640 kHz. At higher clock frequencies accuracy can degrade. For lower clock frequencies, the duty cycle limits can be
extended so long as the minimum clock high time interval or minimum clock low time interval is no less than 275 ns.
Note 6: With an asynchronous start pulse, up to 8 clock periods may be required before the internal clock phases are proper to start the conversion process. The
start request is internally latched, see
Figure 4
and section 2.0.

AC Electrical Characteristics (Continued)
Note 7: The CS input is assumed to bracket the WR strobe input and therefore timing is dependent on the WR pulse width.An arbitrarily wide pulse width will hold
the converter in a reset mode and the start of conversion is initiated by the low to high transition of the WR pulse (see timing diagrams).
Note 8: None of these A/Ds requires a zero adjust (see section 2.5.1). To obtain zero code at other analog input voltages see section 2.5 and
Figure 7
.
Note 9: The VREF/2 pin is the center point of a two-resistor divider connected from VCC to ground. In all versions of the ADC0801, ADC0802, ADC0803, and
ADC0805, and in the ADC0804LCJ, each resistor is typically 16 k. In all versions of the ADC0804 except the ADC0804LCJ, each resistor is typically 2.2 k.

1.0 UNDERSTANDING A/D ERROR SPECS
A perfect A/D transfer characteristic (staircase waveform) is
shown in
Figure 1
. The horizontal scale is analog input
voltage and the particular points labeled are in steps of 1
LSB (19.53 mV with 2.5V tied to the V
REF
/2 pin). The digital
output codes that correspond to these inputs are shown as
D−1, D, and D+1. For the perfect A/D, not only will
center-value (A−1, A, A+1, ....)analog inputs produce
the correct output digital codes, but also each riser (the
transitions between adjacent output codes) will be located
±
1

LSB away from each center-value. As shown, the risers
are ideal and have no width. Correct digital output codes will
be provided for a range of analog input voltages that extend

LSB from the ideal center-values. Each tread (the range
of analog input voltage that provides the same digital output
code) is therefore 1 LSB wide.
Figure 2
shows a worst case error plot for the ADC0801. All
center-valued inputs are guaranteed to produce the correct
output codes and the adjacent risers are guaranteed to be
no closer to the center-value points than ±

LSB. In other
words, if we apply an analog input equal to the center-value
±

LSB,
we guarantee
that the A/D will produce the correct
digital code. The maximum range of the position of the code
transition is indicated by the horizontal arrow and it is guar-
anteed to be no more than

The error curve of
Figure 3
shows a worst case error plot for
the ADC0802. Here we guarantee that if we apply an analog
input equal to the LSB analog voltage center-value the A/D
will produce the correct digital code.
Next to each transfer function is shown the corresponding
error plot. Many people may be more familiar with error plots
than transfer functions. The analog input voltage to the A/D
is provided by either a linear ramp or by the discrete output
steps of a high resolution DAC. Notice that the error is
continuously displayed and includes the quantization uncer-
tainty of the A/D. For example the error at point 1 of
Figure 1
is +
1
2
LSB because the digital code appeared
1
2
LSB in
advance of the center-value of the tread. The error plots
always have a constant negative slope and the abrupt up-
side steps are always 1 LSB in magnitude.

Functional Description (Continued)
2.0 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The ADC0801 series contains a circuit equivalent of the
256R network. Analog switches are sequenced by succes-
sive approximation logic to match the analog difference input
voltage [V
IN
(+)−V
IN
(−)] to a corresponding tap on the R
network. The most significant bit is tested first and after 8
comparisons (64 clock cycles) a digital 8-bit binary code
(1111 1111 = full-scale) is transferred to an output latch and
then an interrupt is asserted (INTR makes a high-to-low
transition). A conversion in process can be interrupted by
issuing a second start command. The device may be oper-
ated in the free-running mode by connecting INTR to the WR
input with CS =0. To ensure start-up under all possible
conditions, an external WR pulse is required during the first
power-up cycle.
On the high-to-low transition of the WR input the internal
SAR latches and the shift register stages are reset. As long
as the CS input and WR input remain low, theA/D will remain
in a reset state.
Conversion will start from 1 to 8 clock
periods after at least one of these inputs makes a low-to-high
transition
.
A functional diagram of the A/D converter is shown in
Figure
4
. All of the package pinouts are shown and the major logic
control paths are drawn in heavier weight lines.
The converter is started by having CS and WR simulta-
neously low. This sets the start flip-flop (F/F) and the result-
ing “1” level resets the 8-bit shift register, resets the Interrupt
(INTR) F/F and inputs a “1” to the D flop, F/F1, which is at the
input end of the 8-bit shift register. Internal clock signals then
transfer this “1” to the Q output of F/F1. The AND gate, G1,
combines this “1” output with a clock signal to provide a reset
signal to the start F/F. If the set signal is no longer present
(either WR or CS is a “1”) the start F/F is reset and the 8-bit
shift register then can have the “1” clocked in, which starts
the conversion process. If the set signal were to still be
present, this reset pulse would have no effect (both outputs
of the start F/F would momentarily be at a “1” level) and the
8-bit shift register would continue to be held in the reset
mode. This logic therefore allows for wide CS and WR
signals and the converter will start after at least one of these
signals returns high and the internal clocks again provide a
reset signal for the start F/F.

Functional Description (Continued)
After the “1” is clocked through the 8-bit shift register (which
completes the SAR search) it appears as the input to the
D-type latch, LATCH 1. As soon as this “1” is output from the
shift register, theAND gate, G2, causes the new digital word
to transfer to the TRI-STATE output latches. When LATCH 1
is subsequently enabled, the Q output makes a high-to-low
transition which causes the INTR F/F to set. An inverting
buffer then supplies the INTR input signal.
Note that this SET control of the INTR F/F remains low for 8
of the external clock periods (as the internal clocks run at
1
8
of the frequency of the external clock). If the data output is
continuously enabled (CS and RD both held low), the INTR
output will still signal the end of conversion (by a high-to-low
transition), because the SET input can control the Q output
of the INTR F/F even though the RESET input is constantly
at a “1” level in this operating mode. This INTR output will
therefore stay low for the duration of the SET signal, which is
8 periods of the external clock frequency (assuming the A/D
is not started during this interval).
When operating in the free-running or continuous conversion
mode (INTR pin tied to WR and CS wired lowsee also
section 2.8), the START F/F is SET by the high-to-low tran-
sition of the INTR signal. This resets the SHIFT REGISTER
which causes the input to the D-type latch, LATCH 1, to go
low.As the latch enable input is still present, the Q output will
go high, which then allows the INTR F/F to be RESET. This
reduces the width of the resulting INTR output pulse to only
a few propagation delays (approximately 300 ns).
When data is to be read, the combination of both CS and RD
being low will cause the INTR F/F to be reset and the
TRI-STATE output latches will be enabled to provide the 8-bit
digital outputs.
2.1 Digital Control Inputs
The digital control inputs (CS, RD, and WR) meet standard
T
2
L logic voltage levels. These signals have been renamed
when compared to the standardA/D Start and Output Enable
labels. In addition, these inputs are active low to allow an
easy interface to microprocessor control busses. For
non-microprocessor based applications, the CS input (pin 1)
can be grounded and the standard A/D Start function is
obtained by an active low pulse applied at the WR input (pin
3) and the Output Enable function is caused by an active low
pulse at the RD input (pin 2).

2.2 Analog Differential Voltage Inputs and
Common-Mode Rejection
This A/D has additional applications flexibility due to the
analog differential voltage input. The V
IN
(−) input (pin 7) can
be used to automatically subtract a fixed voltage value from
the input reading (tare correction). This is also useful in 4
mA–20 mA current loop conversion. In addition,
common-mode noise can be reduced by use of the differen-
tial input.
The time interval between sampling V
IN
(+) and V
IN
(−) is 4-
1
2
clock periods. The maximum error voltage due to this slight
time difference between the input voltage samples is given
by:
where:
V
e
is the error voltage due to sampling delay
V
P
is the peak value of the common-mode voltage
f
cm
is the common-mode frequency
As an example, to keep this error to
1
4
LSB (5 mV) when
operating with a 60 Hz common-mode frequency, f
cm
, and
using a 640 kHzA/D clock, f
CLK
, would allow a peak value of
the common-mode voltage, V
P
, which is given by:
or
which gives
V
P
.1.9V.
The allowed range of analog input voltages usually places
more severe restrictions on input common-mode noise lev-
els.
An analog input voltage with a reduced span and a relatively
large zero offset can be handled easily by making use of the
differential input (see section 2.4 Reference Voltage).
2.3 Analog Inputs
2.3 1 Input Current
Normal Mode
Due to the internal switching action, displacement currents
will flow at the analog inputs. This is due to on-chip stray
capacitance to ground as shown in
Figure 5
.
The voltage on this capacitance is switched and will result in
currents entering the V
IN
(+) input pin and leaving the V
IN
(−)
input which will depend on the analog differential input volt-
age levels. These current transients occur at the leading
edge of the internal clocks. They rapidly decay and
do not
cause errors
as the on-chip comparator is strobed at the end
of the clock period.
Fault Mode
If the voltage source applied to the V
IN
(+) or V
IN
(−) pin
exceeds the allowed operating range of V
CC
+50 mV, large
input currents can flow through a parasitic diode to the V
CC
pin. If these currents can exceed the 1 mA max allowed
spec, an external diode (1N914) should be added to bypass
this current to the V
CC
pin (with the current bypassed with
this diode, the voltage at the V
IN
(+) pin can exceed the V
CC
voltage by the forward voltage of this diode).
2.3.2 Input Bypass Capacitors
Bypass capacitors at the inputs will average these charges
and cause a DC current to flow through the output resis-
tances of the analog signal sources. This charge pumping
action is worse for continuous conversions with the V
IN
(+)
input voltage at full-scale. For continuous conversions with a
640 kHz clock frequency with the V
IN
(+) input at 5V, this DC
current is at a maximum of approximately 5 µA. Therefore,
bypass capacitors should not be used at the analog inputs or
the V
REF
/2 pin
for high resistance sources (>1k). If input
bypass capacitors are necessary for noise filtering and high
source resistance is desirable to minimize capacitor size, the
detrimental effects of the voltage drop across this input
resistance, which is due to the average value of the input
current, can be eliminated with a full-scale adjustment while
the given source resistor and input bypass capacitor are
both in place. This is possible because the average value of
the input current is a precise linear function of the differential
input voltage.
2.3.3 Input Source Resistance
Large values of source resistance where an input bypass
capacitor is not used,
will not cause errors
as the input
currents settle out prior to the comparison time. If a low pass
filter is required in the system, use a low valued series
resistor (1k) for a passive RC section or add an op amp
RC active low pass filter. For low source resistance applica-
tions, (1k), a 0.1 µF bypass capacitor at the inputs will
prevent noise pickup due to series lead inductance of a long

Functional Description (Continued)
wire. A 100series resistor can be used to isolate this
capacitorboth the R and C are placed outside the feed-
back loopfrom the output of an op amp, if used.
2.3.4 Noise
The leads to the analog inputs (pins 6 and 7) should be kept
as short as possible to minimize input noise coupling. Both
noise and undesired digital clock coupling to these inputs
can cause system errors. The source resistance for these
inputs should, in general, be kept below 5 k. Larger values
of source resistance can cause undesired system noise
pickup. Input bypass capacitors, placed from the analog
inputs to ground, will eliminate system noise pickup but can
create analog scale errors as these capacitors will average
the transient input switching currents of the A/D (see section
2.3.1.). This scale error depends on both a large source
resistance and the use of an input bypass capacitor. This
error can be eliminated by doing a full-scale adjustment of
the A/D (adjust V
REF
/2 for a proper full-scale readingsee
section 2.5.2 on Full-Scale Adjustment) with the source re-
sistance and input bypass capacitor in place.
2.4 Reference Voltage
2.4.1 Span Adjust
For maximum applications flexibility, these A/Ds have been
designed to accommodatea5V
DC
, 2.5 V
DC
or an adjusted
voltage reference. This has been achieved in the design of
the IC as shown in
Figure 6
.
Notice that the reference voltage for the IC is either
1
2
of the
voltage applied to the V
CC
supply pin, or is equal to the
voltage that is externally forced at the V
REF
/2 pin. This allows
for a ratiometric voltage reference using the V
CC
supply, a 5
V
DC
reference voltage can be used for the V
CC
supply or a
voltage less than 2.5 V
DC
can be applied to the V
REF
/2 input
for increased application flexibility. The internal gain to the
V
REF
/2 input is 2, making the full-scale differential input
voltage twice the voltage at pin 9.
An example of the use of an adjusted reference voltage is to
accommodate a reduced spanor dynamic voltage range
of the analog input voltage. If the analog input voltage were
to range from 0.5 V
DC
to 3.5 V
DC
, instead of 0V to 5 V
DC
, the
span would be 3V as shown in
Figure 7
. With 0.5 V
DC
applied to the V
IN
(−) pin to absorb the offset, the reference
voltage can be made equal to
1
2
of the 3V span or 1.5 V
DC
.
TheA/D now will encode the V
IN
(+) signal from 0.5V to 3.5 V
with the 0.5V input corresponding to zero and the 3.5 V
DC
input corresponding to full-scale. The full 8 bits of resolution
are therefore applied over this reduced analog input voltage
range.
2.4.2 Reference Accuracy Requirements
The converter can be operated in a ratiometric mode or an
absolute mode. In ratiometric converter applications, the
magnitude of the reference voltage is a factor in both the
output of the source transducer and the output of the A/D
converter and therefore cancels out in the final digital output
code. The ADC0805 is specified particularly for use in ratio-
metric applications with no adjustments required. In absolute
conversion applications, both the initial value and the tem-
perature stability of the reference voltage are important fac-
tors in the accuracy of the A/D converter. For V
REF
/2 volt-
ages of 2.4 V
DC
nominal value, initial errors of ±10 mV
DC
will
cause conversion errors of ±1 LSB due to the gain of 2 of the
V
REF
/2 input. In reduced span applications, the initial value
and the stability of the V
REF
/2 input voltage become even
more important. For example, if the span is reduced to 2.5V,
the analog input LSB voltage value is correspondingly re-
duced from 20 mV (5V span) to 10 mV and 1 LSB at the
V
REF
/2 input becomes 5 mV. As can be seen, this reduces
the allowed initial tolerance of the reference voltage and
requires correspondingly less absolute change with tem-
perature variations. Note that spans smaller than 2.5V place
even tighter requirements on the initial accuracy and stability
of the reference source.
In general, the magnitude of the reference voltage will re-
quire an initial adjustment. Errors due to an improper value
of reference voltage appear as full-scale errors in the A/D
transfer function. IC voltage regulators may be used for
references if the ambient temperature changes are not ex-
cessive. The LM336B 2.5V IC reference diode (from Na-
tional Semiconductor) has a temperature stability of 1.8 mV
typ (6 mV max) over 0˚CT
A
+70˚C. Other temperature
range parts are also available.

Functional Description (Continued)
2.5 Errors and Reference Voltage Adjustments
2.5.1 Zero Error
The zero of the A/D does not require adjustment. If the
minimum analog input voltage value, V
IN(MIN)
, is not ground,
a zero offset can be done. The converter can be made to
output 0000 0000 digital code for this minimum input voltage
by biasing the A/D V
IN
(−) input at this V
IN(MIN)
value (see
Applications section). This utilizes the differential mode op-
eration of the A/D.
The zero error of the A/D converter relates to the location of
the first riser of the transfer function and can be measured by
grounding the V
IN
(−) input and applying a small magnitude
positive voltage to the V
IN
(+) input. Zero error is the differ-
ence between the actual DC input voltage that is necessary
to just cause an output digital code transition from 0000 0000
to 0000 0001 and the ideal
1
2
LSB value (
1
2
LSB = 9.8 mV
for V
REF
/2=2.500 V
DC
).
2.5.2 Full-Scale
The full-scale adjustment can be made by applying a differ-
ential input voltage that is 1
1
2
LSB less than the desired
analog full-scale voltage range and then adjusting the mag-
nitude of the V
REF
/2 input (pin 9 or the V
CC
supply if pin 9 is
not used) for a digital output code that is just changing from
1111 1110 to 1111 1111.
2.5.3 Adjusting for an Arbitrary Analog Input Voltage
Range
If the analog zero voltage of the A/D is shifted away from
ground (for example, to accommodate an analog input signal
that does not go to ground) this new zero reference should
be properly adjusted first. A V
IN
(+) voltage that equals this
desired zero reference plus
1
2
LSB (where the LSB is cal-
culated for the desired analog span, 1 LSB=analog span/
256) is applied to pin 6 and the zero reference voltage at pin
7 should then be adjusted to just obtain the 00
HEX
to 01
HEX
code transition.
The full-scale adjustment should then be made (with the
proper V
IN
(−) voltage applied) by forcing a voltage to the
V
IN
(+) input which is given by:
where:
V
MAX
=The high end of the analog input range
and
V
MIN
=the low end (the offset zero) of the analog range.
(Both are ground referenced.)
The V
REF
/2 (or V
CC
) voltage is then adjusted to provide a
code change from FE
HEX
to FF
HEX
. This completes the
adjustment procedure.
2.6 Clocking Option
The clock for the A/D can be derived from the CPU clock or
an external RC can be added to provide self-clocking. The
CLK IN (pin 4) makes use of a Schmitt trigger as shown in
Figure 8
.

Functional Description (Continued)
Heavy capacitive or DC loading of the clock R pin should be
avoided as this will disturb normal converter operation.
Loads less than 50 pF, such as driving up to 7 A/D converter
clock inputs from a single clock R pin of 1 converter, are
allowed. For larger clock line loading, a CMOS or low power
TTL buffer or PNP input logic should be used to minimize the
loading on the clock R pin (do not use a standard TTL
buffer).
2.7 Restart During a Conversion
If the A/D is restarted (CS and WR go low and return high)
during a conversion, the converter is reset and a new con-
version is started. The output data latch is not updated if the
conversion in process is not allowed to be completed, there-
fore the data of the previous conversion remains in this latch.
The INTR output simply remains at the “1” level.
2.8 Continuous Conversions
For operation in the free-running mode an initializing pulse
should be used, following power-up, to ensure circuit opera-
tion. In this application, the CS input is grounded and the WR
input is tied to the INTR output. This WR and INTR node
should be momentarily forced to logic low following a
power-up cycle to guarantee operation.
2.9 Driving the Data Bus
This MOS A/D, like MOS microprocessors and memories,
will require a bus driver when the total capacitance of the
data bus gets large. Other circuitry, which is tied to the data
bus, will add to the total capacitive loading, even in
TRI-STATE (high impedance mode). Backplane bussing
also greatly adds to the stray capacitance of the data bus.
There are some alternatives available to the designer to
handle this problem. Basically, the capacitive loading of the
data bus slows down the response time, even though DC
specifications are still met. For systems operating with a
relatively slow CPU clock frequency, more time is available
in which to establish proper logic levels on the bus and
therefore higher capacitive loads can be driven (see typical
characteristics curves).
At higher CPU clock frequencies time can be extended for
I/O reads (and/or writes) by inserting wait states (8080) or
using clock extending circuits (6800).
Finally, if time is short and capacitive loading is high, external
bus drivers must be used. These can be TRI-STATE buffers
(low power Schottky such as the DM74LS240 series is rec-
ommended) or special higher drive current products which
are designed as bus drivers. High current bipolar bus drivers
with PNP inputs are recommended.
2.10 Power Supplies
Noise spikes on the V
CC
supply line can cause conversion
errors as the comparator will respond to this noise. A low
inductance tantalum filter capacitor should be used close to
the converter V
CC
pin and values of 1 µF or greater are
recommended. If an unregulated voltage is available in the
system, a separate LM340LAZ-5.0, TO-92, 5V voltage regu-
lator for the converter (and other analog circuitry) will greatly
reduce digital noise on the V
CC
supply.
2.11 Wiring and Hook-Up Precautions
Standard digital wire wrap sockets are not satisfactory for
breadboarding this A/D converter. Sockets on PC boards
can be used and all logic signal wires and leads should be
grouped and kept as far away as possible from the analog
signal leads. Exposed leads to the analog inputs can cause
undesired digital noise and hum pickup, therefore shielded
leads may be necessary in many applications.
A single point analog ground that is separate from the logic
ground points should be used. The power supply bypass
capacitor and the self-clocking capacitor (if used) should
both be returned to digital ground. Any V
REF
/2 bypass ca-
pacitors, analog input filter capacitors, or input signal shield-
ing should be returned to the analog ground point. A test for
proper grounding is to measure the zero error of the A/D
converter. Zero errors in excess of
1
4
LSB can usually be
traced to improper board layout and wiring (see section 2.5.1
for measuring the zero error).
3.0 TESTING THE A/D CONVERTER
There are many degrees of complexity associated with test-
ing an A/D converter. One of the simplest tests is to apply a
known analog input voltage to the converter and use LEDs to
display the resulting digital output code as shown in
Figure 9
.
For ease of testing, the V
REF
/2 (pin 9) should be supplied
with 2.560 V
DC
andaV
CC
supply voltage of 5.12 V
DC
should
be used. This provides an LSB value of 20 mV.
If a full-scale adjustment is to be made, an analog input
voltage of 5.090 V
DC
(5.120–1
1
2
LSB) should be applied to
the V
IN
(+) pin with the V
IN
(−) pin grounded. The value of the
V
REF
/2 input voltage should then be adjusted until the digital
output code is just changing from 1111 1110 to 1111 1111.
This value of V
REF
/2 should then be used for all the tests.
The digital output LED display can be decoded by dividing
the 8 bits into 2 hex characters, the 4 most significant (MS)
and the 4 least significant (LS).
Table 1
shows the fractional
binary equivalent of these two 4-bit groups. By adding the
voltages obtained from the “VMS” and “VLS” columns in
Table 1
, the nominal value of the digital display (when
V
REF
/2 = 2.560V) can be determined. For example, for an
output LED display of 1011 0110 or B6 (in hex), the voltage
values from the table are 3.520 + 0.120 or 3.640 V
DC
. These
voltage values represent the center-values of a perfect A/D
converter. The effects of quantization error have to be ac-
counted for in the interpretation of the test results.

www.national.com23
Functional Description (Continued) For a higher speed test system, or to obtain plotted data, a
digital-to-analog converter is needed for the test set-up. An
accurate 10-bit DAC can serve as the precision voltage
source for the A/D. Errors of the A/D under test can be
expressed as either analog voltages or differences in 2
digital words.
Abasic A/D tester that uses a DAC and provides the error as
an analog output voltage is shown in
Figure 8
.The2op
amps can be eliminated if a lab DVM with a numerical
subtraction feature is available to read the difference volt-
age, “A–C”, directly. The analog input voltage can be sup-
plied by a low frequency ramp generator and an X-Y plotter
can be used to provide analog error (Y axis) versus analog
input (X axis).
For operation with a microprocessor or a computer-based
test system, it is more convenient to present the errors
digitally. This can be done with the circuit of
Figure 11
, where
the output code transitions can be detected as the 10-bit
DAC is incremented. This provides
1
4
LSB steps for the 8-bit
A/D under test. If the results of this test are automatically
plotted with the analog input on the X axis and the error (in
LSB’s) as the Y axis, a useful transfer function of the A/D
under test results. For acceptance testing, the plot is not
necessary and the testing speed can be increased by estab-
lishing internal limits on the allowed error for each code.
4.0 MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING
To dicuss the interface with 8080A and 6800 microproces-
sors, a common sample subroutine structure is used. The
microprocessor starts the A/D, reads and stores the results
of 16 successive conversions, then returns to the users
program. The 16 data bytes are stored in 16 successive
memory locations. All Data and Addresses will be given in
hexadecimal form. Software and hardware details are pro-
vided separately for each type of microprocessor.
4.1 Interfacing 8080 Microprocessor Derivatives (8048,
8085)
This converter has been designed to directly interface with
derivatives of the 8080 microprocessor. The A/D can be
mapped into memory space (using standard memory ad-
dress decoding for CS and the MEMR and MEMW strobes)
or it can be controlled as an I/O device by using the I/O R
and I/O W strobes and decoding the address bits A0 A7
(or address bitsA8 A15 as they will contain the same 8-bit
address information) to obtain the CS input. Using the I/O
space provides 256 additional addresses and may allow a
simpler 8-bit address decoder but the data can only be input
to the accumulator. To make use of the additional memory
reference instructions, the A/D should be mapped into
memory space. An example of an A/D in I/O space is shown
in
Figure 12
.

bus. A bus driver should be used for larger microprocessor
systems where the data bus leaves the PC board and/or
must drive capacitive loads larger than 100 pF.
4.1.1 Sample 8080A CPU Interfacing Circuitry and
Program
The following sample program and associated hardware
shown in
Figure 12
may be used to input data from the
converter to the INS8080A CPU chip set (comprised of the
INS8080A microprocessor, the INS8228 system controller
and the INS8224 clock generator). For simplicity, the A/D is
controlled as an I/O device, specifically an 8-bit bi-directional
port located at an arbitrarily chosen port address, E0. The
TRI-STATE output capability of the A/D eliminates the need
for a peripheral interface device, however address decoding
is still required to generate the appropriate CS for the con-
verter.
It is important to note that in systems where the A/D con-
verter is 1-of-8 or less I/O mapped devices, no address
decoding circuitry is necessary. Each of the 8 address bits
(A0 to A7) can be directly used as CS inputsone for each
I/O device.
4.1.2 INS8048 Interface
The INS8048 interface technique with the ADC0801 series
(see
Figure 13
) is simpler than the 8080A CPU interface.
There are 24 I/O lines and three test input lines in the 8048.
With these extra I/O lines available, one of the I/O lines (bit
0 of port 1) is used as the chip select signal to the A/D, thus
eliminating the use of an external address decoder. Bus
control signals RD, WR and INT of the 8048 are tied directly
to the A/D. The 16 converted data words are stored at
on-chip RAM locations from 20 to 2F (Hex). The RD and WR
signals are generated by reading from and writing into a
dummy address, respectively. A sample interface program is
shown below.

4.2 Interfacing the Z-80
The Z-80 control bus is slightly different from that of the
8080. General RD and WR strobes are provided and sepa-
rate memory request, MREQ, and I/O request, IORQ, sig-
nals are used which have to be combined with the general-
ized strobes to provide the equivalent 8080 signals. An
advantage of operating the A/D in I/O space with the Z-80 is
that the CPU will automatically insert one wait state (the RD
and WR strobes are extended one clock period) to allow
more time for the I/O devices to respond. Logic to map the
A/D in I/O space is shown in
Figure 14
.Additional I/O advantages exist as software DMA routines
are available and use can be made of the output data
transfer which exists on the upper 8 address lines (A8 to

A15) during I/O input instructions. For example, MUX chan-
nel selection for the A/D can be accomplished with this
operating mode.
4.3 Interfacing 6800 Microprocessor Derivatives
(6502, etc.)
The control bus for the 6800 microprocessor derivatives
does not use the RD and WR strobe signals. Instead it
employs a single R/W line and additional timing, if needed,
can be derived fom the φ2 clock. All I/O devices are memory
mapped in the 6800 system, and a special signal, VMA,
indicates that the current address is valid.
Figure 15
shows
an interface schematic where the A/D is memory mapped in
the 6800 system. For simplicity, the CS decoding is shown
using
1
2
DM8092. Note that in many 6800 systems, an
already decoded 4/5 line is brought out to the common bus
at pin 21. This can be tied directly to the CS pin of the A/D,
provided that no other devices are addressed at HX ADDR:
4XXX or 5XXX.
The following subroutine performs essentially the same func-
tion as in the case of the 8080Ainterface and it can be called
from anywhere in the users program.
In
Figure 16
the ADC0801 series is interfaced to the M6800
microprocessor through (the arbitrarily chosen) Port B of the
MC6820 or MC6821 Peripheral Interface Adapter, (PIA).
Here the CS pin of the A/D is grounded since the PIA is
already memory mapped in the M6800 system and no CS
decoding is necessary. Also notice that the A/D output data
lines are connected to the microprocessor bus under pro-
gram control through the PIA and therefore the A/D RD pin
can be grounded.
Asample interface program equivalent to the previous one is
shown below
Figure 16
. The PIAData and Control Registers
of Port B are located at HEX addresses 8006 and 8007,
respectively.
5.0 GENERAL APPLICATIONS
The following applications show some interesting uses for
the A/D. The fact that one particular microprocessor is used
is not meant to be restrictive. Each of these application
circuits would have its counterpart using any microprocessor
that is desired.
5.1 Multiple ADC0801 Series to MC6800 CPU Interface
To transfer analog data from several channels to a single
microprocessor system, a multiple converter scheme pre-
sents several advantages over the conventional multiplexer
single-converter approach. With the ADC0801 series, the
differential inputs allow individual span adjustment for each
channel. Furthermore, all analog input channels are sensed
simultaneously, which essentially divides the microproces-
sors total system servicing time by the number of channels,
since all conversions occur simultaneously. This scheme is
shown in
Figure 17
.

Functional Description (Continued)
The following schematic and sample subroutine (DATA IN)
may be used to interface (up to) 8 ADC0801’s directly to the
MC6800 CPU. This scheme can easily be extended to allow
the interface of more converters. In this configuration the
converters are (arbitrarily) located at HEX address 5000 in
the MC6800 memory space. To save components, the clock
signal is derived from just one RC pair on the first converter.
This output drives the other A/Ds.
All the converters are started simultaneously with a STORE
instruction at HEX address 5000. Note that any other HEX
address of the form 5XXX will be decoded by the circuit,
pulling all the CS inputs low. This can easily be avoided by
using a more definitive address decoding scheme. All the
interrupts are ORed together to insure that all A/Ds have
completed their conversion before the microprocessor is
interrupted.
The subroutine, DATA IN, may be called from anywhere in
the users program. Once called, this routine initializes the
CPU, starts all the converters simultaneously and waits for
the interrupt signal. Upon receiving the interrupt, it reads the
converters (from HEX addresses 5000 through 5007) and
stores the data successively at (arbitrarily chosen) HEX
addresses 0200 to 0207, before returning to the users pro-
gram. All CPU registers then recover the original data they
had before servicing DATA IN.
5.2 Auto-Zeroed Differential Transducer Amplifier
and A/D Converter
The differential inputs of the ADC0801 series eliminate the
need to perform a differential to single ended conversion for
a differential transducer. Thus, one op amp can be elimi-
nated since the differential to single ended conversion is
provided by the differential input of the ADC0801 series. In
general, a transducer preamp is required to take advantage
of the full A/D converter input dynamic range.

Note 25: In order for the microprocessor to service subroutines and interrupts, the stack pointer must be dimensioned in the user’s program.
For amplification of DC input signals, a major system error is
the input offset voltage of the amplifiers used for the preamp.
Figure 18
is a gain of 100 differential preamp whose offset
voltage errors will be cancelled by a zeroing subroutine
which is performed by the INS8080A microprocessor sys-
tem. The total allowable input offset voltage error for this
preamp is only 50 µV for
1
4
LSB error. This would obviously
require very precise amplifiers. The expression for the differ-
ential output voltage of the preamp is:
where I
X
is the current through resistor R
X
. All of the offset
error terms can be cancelled by making ±I
X
R
X
=V
OS1
+
V
OS3
−V
OS2
. This is the principle of this auto-zeroing
scheme.
The INS8080A uses the 3 I/O ports of an INS8255 Progra-
mable Peripheral Interface (PPI) to control the auto zeroing
and input data from the ADC0801 as shown in
Figure 19
.
The PPI is programmed for basic I/O operation (mode 0) with
Port A being an input port and Ports B and C being output
ports. Two bits of Port C are used to alternately open or close
the 2 switches at the input of the preamp. Switch SW1 is
closed to force the preamp’s differential input to be zero
during the zeroing subroutine and then opened and SW2 is
then closed for conversion of the actual differential input
signal. Using 2 switches in this manner eliminates concern
for the ON resistance of the switches as they must conduct
only the input bias current of the input amplifiers.
Output Port B is used as a successive approximation regis-
ter by the 8080 and the binary scaled resistors in series with
each output bit create a D/A converter. During the zeroing
subroutine, the voltage at V
x
increases or decreases as
required to make the differential output voltage equal to zero.
This is accomplished by ensuring that the voltage at the
output of A1 is approximately 2.5V so that a logic “1” (5V) on

any output of Port B will source current into node V
X
thus
raising the voltage at V
X
and making the output differential
more negative. Conversely, a logic “0” (0V) will pull current
out of node V
X
and decrease the voltage, causing the differ-
ential output to become more positive. For the resistor val-
ues shown, V
X
can move ±12 mV with a resolution of 50 µV,
which will null the offset error term to
1
4
LSB of full-scale for
theADC0801. It is important that the voltage levels that drive
the auto-zero resistors be constant. Also, for symmetry, a
logic swing of 0V to 5V is convenient. To achieve this, a
CMOS buffer is used for the logic output signals of Port B
and this CMOS package is powered with a stable 5V source.
Buffer amplifier A1 is necessary so that it can source or sink
the D/A output current.

Functional Description (Continued)
Aflow chart for the zeroing subroutine is shown in
Figure 20
.
It must be noted that the ADC0801 series will output an all
zero code when it converts a negative input [V
IN
(−) V
IN
(+)].
Also, a logic inversion exists as all of the I/O ports are
buffered with inverting gates.
Basically, if the data read is zero, the differential output
voltage is negative, so a bit in Port B is cleared to pull V
X
more negative which will make the output more positive for
the next conversion. If the data read is not zero, the output
voltage is positive so a bit in Port B is set to make V
X
more
positive and the output more negative. This continues for 8
approximations and the differential output eventually con-
verges to within 5 mV of zero.
The actual program is given in
Figure 21
.All addresses used
are compatible with the BLC 80/10 microcomputer system.
In particular:
Port A and the ADC0801 are at port address E4
Port B is at port address E5
Port C is at port address E6
PPI control word port is at port address E7
Program Counter automatically goes toADDR:3C3D upon
acknowledgement of an interrupt from the ADC0801
5.3 Multiple A/D Converters in a Z-80 Interrupt
Driven Mode
In data acquisition systems where more than one A/D con-
verter (or other peripheral device) will be interrupting pro-
gram execution of a microprocessor, there is obviously a
need for the CPU to determine which device requires servic-
ing.
Figure 22
and the accompanying software is a method
of determining which of 7 ADC0801 converters has com-
pleted a conversion (INTR asserted) and is requesting an
interrupt. This circuit allows starting the A/D converters in
any sequence, but will input and store valid data from the
converters with a priority sequence of A/D 1 being read first,
A/D 2 second, etc., through A/D 7 which would have the
lowest priority for data being read. Only the converters
whose INT is asserted will be read.
The key to decoding circuitry is the DM74LS373, 8-bit D type
flip-flop. When the Z-80 acknowledges the interrupt, the
program is vectored to a data input Z-80 subroutine. This
subroutine will read a peripheral status word from the
DM74LS373 which contains the logic state of the INTR
outputs of all the converters. Each converter which initiates
an interrupt will place a logic “0” in a unique bit position in the
status word and the subroutine will determine the identity of
the converter and execute a data read. An identifier word
(which indicates which A/D the data came from) is stored in
the next sequential memory location above the location of
the data so the program can keep track of the identity of the
data entered.

5.3 Multiple A/D Converters in a Z-80 Interrupt Driven
Mode (Continued)
The following notes apply:
It is assumed that the CPU automatically performs a RST
7 instruction when a valid interrupt is acknowledged
(CPU is in interrupt mode 1). Hence, the subroutine
starting address of X0038.
The address bus from the Z-80 and the data bus to the
Z-80 are assumed to be inverted by bus drivers.
A/D data and identifying words will be stored in sequen-
tial memory locations starting at the arbitrarily chosen
address X 3E00.
The stack pointer must be dimensioned in the main pro-
gram as the RST 7 instruction automatically pushes the
PC onto the stack and the subroutine uses an additional
6 stack addresses.
The peripherals of concern are mapped into I/O space
with the following port assignments:

General Description
The ADC0801, ADC0802, ADC0803, ADC0804 and ADC0805 are CMOS 8-bit successive approximation A/D
converters that use a differential potentiometric ladder-similar to the 256R products. These converters are
designed to allow operation with the NSC800 and INS8080A derivative control bus with TRI-STATE output
latches directly driving the data bus. These A/Ds appear like memory locations or I/O ports to the
microprocessor and no interfacing logic is needed.
Differential analog voltage inputs allow increasing the common-mode rejection and offsetting the analog zero
input voltage value. In addition, the voltage reference input can be adjusted to allow encoding any smaller
analog voltage span to the full 8 bits of resolution.

General Description
The ADC0801, ADC0802, ADC0803, ADC0804 and ADC0805 are CMOS 8-bit successive approximation A/D
converters that use a differential potentiometric ladder-similar to the 256R products. These converters are
designed to allow operation with the NSC800 and INS8080A derivative control bus with TRI-STATE output
latches directly driving the data bus. These A/Ds appear like memory locations or I/O ports to the
microprocessor and no interfacing logic is needed.
Differential analog voltage inputs allow increasing the common-mode rejection and offsetting the analog zero
input voltage value. In addition, the voltage reference input can be adjusted to allow encoding any smaller
analog voltage span to the full 8 bits of resolution.
