PRODUCTION DATA
The ADC has three analog power supplies, AVDD1, AVDD2, and AVSS, all of which must be well regulated and free from switching power-supply noise (voltage ripple < 1mV). The AVDD1 power-supply voltage is relative to AVSS and powers the PGA and buffer. AVSS is the negative power supply. The ADC can be configured for single-supply operation with AVDD1 = 5V or 3.3V with AVSS connected to ground. Because the minimum voltage of AVDD1 to AGND = 2.375V, dual-supply operation is only possible when AVDD1 – AVSS = ±2.5V. Single-power supply operation requires a level-shift voltage at the geophone input through the input termination resistors. The level-shift voltage is typically equal to AVDD1 / 2. Bypass AVDD1 with 1μF and 0.1μF parallel capacitors to AVSS.
The AVDD2 power supply powers the modulator. To simplify system power management, AVDD2 can be connected AVDD1, regardless whether AVDD1 and AVSS are configured for single- or dual-supply operation (AVDD2 voltage range is 2.375V to 5.25V with respect to AGND). Bypass AVDD2 with 1μF and 0.1μF parallel capacitors to AGND.
