ADS8363EVM: About R11

Part Number: ADS8363EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS8363

Hi team,

Why is the Pin22(CLOCK) ADS8363 connected to R11?
Besides, should CMA and CMB be left open?


Beat Regards,

  • Hi Tom,

    R11 is there to dampen the SCLK rise/fall edge.  It's not always necessary to have such a termination resistor, but it does help with EMI issues in some cases.  CMA and CMB can be left open if you are using the internal common mode source.
