Analog input to inverting terminal of
NORM input amplifier.
Output terminal of NORM amplifier.
Analog input to inverting terminal of
AUX input amplifier.
Output terminal of AUX amplifier.
Analog output from noninverting
terminal of differential output amplifier.
Analog output from inverting terminal of
differential output amplifier.
On-chip bandgap voltage reference
(2.5 V ± 10%).
Master clock input; frequency must
equal 13.0 MHz to guarantee listed
specifications.
Serial clock used to clock data or control
bits to and from the serial port
(SPORT). The frequency of SCLK is
equal to the frequency of the master
clock (MCLK) divided by 5. SCLK is
3-stated when CS is low.
Serial data input of SPORT. Both data
and control information are input on
this pin. Input at SDI is ignored when
CS is low.
Serial data output of SPORT. Both data
and control information are output on
this pin. SDO is 3-stated when CS is
low.
Framing signal for SDI serial transfers.
Input at SDIFS is ignored when CS is
low.
Framing signal for SDO serial transfers.
SDOFS is 3-stated when CS is low.
Configures AD28msp02 for either data
or control information transfers (via
SPORT).
Active-high chip select. Can be used to
3-state the SPORT interface; when CS
is low, the SCLK, SDO, and SDOFS
outputs are 3-stated and the SDI and
SDIFS inputs are ignored. If CS is de-
asserted during a serial data transfer, the
16-bit word being transmitted is lost.
Active low reset signal; resets Control
Register and clears digital filters. RESET
does not 3-state the SPORT outputs
(SCLK, SDO, SDOFS).
Analog supply voltage; nominal +5 V.
Analog ground.
Digital supply voltage; nominal +5 V.
Digital ground.
D/A CONVERSION
The D/A conversion circuitry of the AD28msp02 consists of a
sigma-delta digital-to-analog converter (DAC), an analog
smoothing filter, a programmable gain amplifier, and a differen-
tial output amplifier.
DAC
The AD28msp02’s sigma-delta DAC implements digital filters
and a sigma-delta modulator with the same characteristics as the
filters and modulator of the ADC. The DAC consists of a digital
high-pass filter, an anti-imaging interpolation filter, and a digital
sigma-delta modulator.
The DAC receives 16-bit samples from the host DSP processor
via AD28msp02’s serial port at an 8 kHz rate. If the host pro-
cessor fails to write a new value to the serial port, the existing
(previous) data is read again. The data stream is filtered first by
the DAC’s high-pass filter and then by the anti-imaging interpo-
lation filter. These filters have the same characteristics as the
ADC’s anti-aliasing decimation filter and digital high-pass filter.
The output of the interpolation filter is fed to the DAC’s digital
sigma-delta modulator, which converts the 16-bit data to 1-bit
samples at a 1.0 MHz rate. The modulator noise-shapes the sig-
nal such that errors inherent to the process are minimized in the
passband of the converter. The bit stream output of the sigma-
delta modulator is fed to the AD28msp02’s analog smoothing
filter where it is converted to an analog voltage.
High-Pass Filter
The digital high-pass filter of the AD28msp02’s DAC has the
same characteristics as the high-pass filter of the ADC. The
high-pass filter removes frequency components at the low end of
the spectrum; it attenuates signal energy below the passband of
the converter. The DAC’s high-pass filter can be bypassed by
setting the DABY bit (Bit 2) of the AD28msp02’s control
register.
The high-pass filter is a 4th-order elliptic filter with a passband
cutoff at 150 Hz. Stopband attenuation is 25 dB. This filter has
the following specifications:

Stopband ripple:
4th-order high-pass elliptic IIR
8.0 kHz
150.0 Hz
± 0.2 dB
100.0 Hz
–25.00 dB
(Note that these specifications apply only to this filter, and not to the entire DAC.
The specifications can be used to perform further analysis of the exact characteris-
tics of the filter, for example using a digital filter design software package.)
Figure 3 shows the frequency response of the high-pass filter.
Interpolation Filter
The anti-imaging interpolation filter contains two stages. The
first stage is an IIR low-pass filter that interpolates the data rate
from 8 kHz to 40 kHz and removes images produced by the in-
terpolation process. The output of this stage is then interpolated
to 1.0 MHz and fed to the second stage, a sinc4 digital filter that
attenuates images produced by the 40 kHz to 1.0 MHz inter-
polation process.
