CCS/TMS320F28034: Calculation of input impedance of ADC using TMS320F28034

Part Number: TMS320F28034
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OP07

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi, TI engineer!

As shown in the above figure.Input is battery voltage.OP07 operational amplifier differential.Input to DSP ADC pin.How do I calculate the input impedance of ADC in the above figure?Thank you very much.

  • jin chao yang,

    You can find the ADC input model in the datasheet.

    This other discussion may help with understanding how to condition the ADC input:

    The content of reply is much.Let me take a closer look.

  • Hi tlee!

    Linker:

    The following answer is included in the link.  

    Ok, yeah we can explain the behavior here.  The effective source impedance is extremely high.  Since you have a 3-pole filter here, just as a really rough approximation we can say that the total RC time constant is roughly sqrt(RC1^2 + RC2^2 + RC3^2) = sqrt(57.6K*100n^2+ 57.6K*100n^2 + 1K*1n^2) = 8.15ms. To get 1/4LSB settling at 12-bit resolution, you need -ln(0.25/4096) = 9.7 time constants, so for ideal settling your S+H window would need to be in the ballpark of 8.15ms*9.7 = 79.1ms!  The maximum S+H window for the ADC runing at 30MHz is 64 ADCCLKs or (1000/30)*64 = 2.1us.

    sqrt(RC1^2 + RC2^2 + RC3^2) = sqrt(57.6K*100n^2+ 57.6K*100n^2 + 1K*1n^2) = 8.15ms. I can't get the same answer.How did 8.15ms get it?

  • jin chao yang,

    I am able to arrive at 8.146ms.  Are you squaring the entire RC product?  The equation is more clearly represented as:

    sqrt[ (R1*C1)^2 + (R2*C2)^2 + (R3*C3)^2 ]

  • Thanks! tlee!

    Yes, I am designing the application of RC. It is used in DSP's ADC input.
