The following cookbook introduces a solution to detect if the analog input is floating on SAR ADCs.
Circuit for detecting input floating on ADS8681 ADC
Key features:
- Simple solution for input floating detection.
- No high bandwidth amplifier required because these ADCs have integrated ADC driver and high input impedance - low cost.
- Small noise from larger resistance in the resistor divider( >M ohms) because of lower output impedance from the source.
This solution can be used for these ADCs:
