Hello team,
What should I do if I don't use REFBUF and VCOM pins?
Can I leave them floating?
Best Regards,

Hi Kei-san,
What is customer wanting to use as voltage reference? See table below. Pulling this pin high through a 10k pullup resistor to 1.8V will use the external 1.6V voltage reference that is supplied through the VREF pin. If wanting to use a 1.2V reference, then supply the 1.2V reference to this REFBUF pin. If wanting to use internal reference, then supply a 0.6V signal or pulldown to GND through a 10k for differential clock and single ended clock options, respectively.
If the customer is using multiple of this chip in a larger system and wants to ensure the reference voltage is common across them all, then using one of the external reference options will ensure this. If this is a single ADC3562 on the customer board then the internal reference is easiest and requires no external 1.6V or 1.2V precision reference.
I am guessing VCOM is a typo for VCM output pin? If so, I recommend connecting a 0.1uF capacitor to GND if not driving a common mode input of an upstream differential amplifier.
Thanks, Chase
Hi Chase-san,
Thank you for the detailed answer!
Sorry missed that from datasheet.
