ADS8528: Behavior of parallel data bus during AVDD=0V

Part Number: ADS8528

Dear Technical Support Team,

Unexpected data appears on DB[15:0]  during AVDD =0V.

Normally DB[15:0]  are 3.3V when  AVDD=5V but about these are about 1.6V when AVDD=0V.

Supply voltages while power-on are following.

AVDD:0V 

DVDD:3.3V

HVDD:15V

HVSS:-15V

"Power Supply Recommendations" describes below. Does it affect DB[15:0] ?

----------------------

However, when HVDD is supplied before AVDD, the internal electrostatic discharge (ESD) structure conducts, increasing the IHVDD beyond the specified value until AVDD is applied.

----------------------


Best Regards,

  • Hello,

    Although there might not be specific power sequencing requirements, it is best practice to bring up AVDD and DVDD together, or AVDD first. We cannot guarantee behavior during your stated condition; but with only half the device powered, it does make sense that DB[15:0] would not be properly driven.
