ADS8900B: Reference used with ADS8900B

Part Number: ADS8900B
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OPA211

What external reference was used with the ADS8900B in figure 33 on the datasheet, and what reference output cap was used?

  • Hi Carl,

    The REF5045 was used with the circuit shown on Figure 105 for the case when using internal buffer and a 22uF X7R grade bypass capacitor at the REFBUFOUT pin. The REF5045 without buffer was used to generate the external reference without buffer. I will have to check with the team as to which buffer circuit was used for the case of external reference buffer driving the SAR ADC. I will confirm and get back to you with this information.

    Thank you,
    Best Regards,
    Luis
  • Hi Carl,

    Confirmed with the team that the circuit on Figure 105 was used for the case of using internal buffer with a 22uF bypass capacitor at the REF input.  For the case of external buffer, the OPA211 was used.

    Please let me know if you have additional questions.

    Thank you,

    Kind Regards,
