8.2.1.3 Application Curve

Table 28 and Figure 121 summarize the performance for this design. In this example, multiple sinusoidal input signals of an amplitude at ±10 V are applied to the inputs of the ADC. The initial phase angle is the same for all signals, but the input frequency is varied from 45 Hz to 55 Hz. The phase error in the last column of Table 28 reflects the measurement accuracy of this design.

Table 28. Theoretical and Measured Phase Difference

INPUT TEST CONDITION THEORETICAL PHASE ERROR(1) MEASURED PHASE ERROR(2) PHASE ERROR AFTER COMPENSATION(3)
Phase difference
(consecutive channels) 		0.036° 0.036145° 0.000145°
Phase difference
(farthest channels, channel 0 to channel 7) 		0.252° 0.249964° 0.002036°
(1) Theoretical phase difference introduced by multiplexing is calculated based on the formula: Δφ = (fIN / fADC) × N × 360°, where N = integral gap between two channels in the multiplexer sequence; fIN = input signal frequency; and fADC = 500 kSPS, maximum throughput of the ADC.
(2) Measured phase value (before compensation) includes phase difference between any two channels resulting from multiplexing ADC inputs.
(3) The algorithm subtracts theoretical phase difference from the measured phase to compensate for the phase difference resulting from the MUX inputs.
