5. AD converter with successive approximation Questions, preparation at home a) b) c) d) e) Do you have USB flash-disc with you? What are the basic blocks of the AD converter with successive approximation? What is the purpose of the voltage comparator? Compare Fig.3 and Fig.6 in [1]. What are the differences? Which bit is being sent first in the serial communication protocol of the WSH570 and ADS8512 ADCs? MSB or LSB? f) At which edge of the clock signal are the data valid? Rise or fall? g) What are the differences between the two ADCs? (serial protocol, power supply, input ranges, resolution etc.) h) The logic analyzer has two basic modes: synchronous and asynchronous analyses. The acquisition of the input signals can be done in two different ways: state analyses, time analyses. Can you describe the difference? Task a) Describe the functionality of the AD converter with successive approximation and make drawing of the diagram to your notebook. Write up the differences between the ADCs WSH 570 a ADS8512. b) Explore the functionality and possibilities of the digital oscilloscope MSO4000 with integrated logic analyzer. Be ready to explain how to set-up a mode of single acquisition, continual acquisition, time base parameters, analog channel gain, selection of active digital channels and the storage of acquired data on USB drive. c) Check the connections / wiring of the tools with the AD converters, power supply connection. Switch on the power supplies. Switch on the power supplies for the AD converters FIRST (basically, circuits should be powered before there is some voltage on their inputs). d) In the time analyses mode show on the oscilloscope screen following signals: (do it for two different voltage levels at the ADC input: 4.950 and 5.050V) 1) Parallel output B1 to B8, STATUS (status output), S OUT (serial output), CLK (clock signal), START A/C – connected to the digital inputs of the logic analyzer. 2) Output before the voltage comparator – output at the application board of the WSH570 ADC (see Fig.1 and Fig.3), marked as COMP [1]. Signal must be connected to the analog input channel of the oscilloscope. Store the waveforms to your USB flash-disc and after necessary modifications insert into your notebook – to the protocol about the measurement. e) Explain the connection between the analog value of the signal COMP (output of the DA converter summed with the input) and the digital output word of the converter. f) Measure the transfer function of the AD converters in few points (e.g. 0,000 V; 0,039 V; 1,000 V; 2,500 V; 5,000 V; 7,500 V; 9,000 V; 9,961 V). You will need to apply some type of a mathematical correction to one of the outputs (e.g. to cut the output of the ADS8512 ADC to 8-bits, invert the bit values). 1/6 Optional measurements g) Measure the time of one conversion of the WSH570 ADC. h) Measure the time of one conversion of the ADS8512 ADC; measure also the time needed to send the output data through the serial interface. i) Measure the clock signals for both ADCs, describe the differences (frequency, duty cycle). j) Measure the amplitude of an overshoot on DATA CLK signal of the ADS8512 ADC (overshoot is generated at rise and fall edge of the SPI clock signal). k) Observe the changes in the signals if the frequency of triggering pulses is increased (increased in such a way, that the triggering period is shorter than the time of a single conversion) l) Compare the representation (how they are displayed) of the triggering pulses acquired by the analog input channel and the digital input channel, explain the differences. 2/6 Settings of the instruments Impulse generator settings: output A frequency 100 kHz pulse length 1 µs maximum amplitude Block diagram of the measurement setup The signals shown on Fig.2 correspond to circuit-diagram shown on Fig.1. More detailed information about the internal circuit of the WSH570 ADC can be found in [1] (as well as the detailed description of the functionality of all inputs). Fig.1 Block diagram of the measurement 3/6 Fig.2 Acquired analog and digital signals 4/6 Description of an AD converter with successive approximation The 8-bit ADC Tesla WSH 570 [1] made by “hybrid” technology contains: reference voltage supply, 8-bit DAC, voltage comparator, approximation register and clock generator. See Fig.3 for simplified circuit diagram. The ADC converts the input analog voltage by successive approximation by 8 internally generated, binary scaled voltage weights (5V, 2.5V, 1.25V...). The ADC sends 9 clock pulses during the conversion (STATUS signal is at high level) and eight data bits which are synchronous with the clock. The parallel output is not valid during the conversion. The conversion is finished and the parallel output valid when the STATUS output goes back to low level. Fig.3 Simplified internal structure of the WS 570 ADC Compare the block diagram shown on Fig.3 with the implementation of the ADS8512 ADC, which is shown on first page of [2]. Application circuit of the ADS8512 ADC is shown on Fig.4, it requires minimal amount of external components for its operation. Fig.4 Application circuit of the ADS8512 ADC [2] 5/6 The application board of the ADS8512 ADC allows to connect: input voltage to (R1IN), conversion start input (/CONV), output indicating that the conversion is in progress (/BUSY) and two output signals of the serial interface SPI (DATA a DATACLK). The converter can convert an input voltage within a range –10V...+10V, thanks to built-in input resistor divider. On the contrary the WSH570 ADC can convert only positive input voltage within a range 0...10V (-1 LSB). One LSB corresponds to 39,06 mV for WSH570 and to 4,88 mV for ADS8512 ADC. The output coding of both ADC is shown in Tab.1.
