AD7322
Preliminary Technical Data
When the ADC starts a conversion (
and SW1 will move to position B, causing the comparator to
become unbalanced. The control logic and the charge
redistribution DAC is used to add and subtract fixed amounts
of charge from the sampling capacitor arrays to bring the
comparator back into a balanced condition. When the
comparator is rebalanced, the conversion is complete. The
Control Logic generates the ADC output code.

SW1 and SW2 will move to position B, see
impedances of the source driving the Vin+ and Vin- pins must
be matched; otherwise the two inputs will have different settling
times, resulting in errors.

Output Coding
The AD7322 default output coding is set to two’s complement.
The output coding is controlled by the Coding bit in the
Control Register. To change the output coding to Straight
Binary Coding the Coding bit in the Control Register must be
set. When operating in Sequence mode the output coding for
each channel in the sequence will be the value written to the
coding bit during the last write to the Control Register.
Transfer Functions
The designed code transitions occur at successive integer LSB
values (i.e., 1 LSB, 2 LSB, and so on). The LSB size is dependant
on the Analog input Range selected.

ANALOG INPUT
The analog inputs of the AD7322 may be configured as Single-
Ended, True differential or Pseudo Differential via the Control
Register Mode Bits as shown in
The AD7322 can accept True bipolar input signals. On power
up the Analog inputs will operate as 2 Single-Ended Analog
Input Channels. If True Differential or Pseudo Differential is
required, a write to the Control register is necessary to change
this configuration after power up.
