Reference Section
An external reference source should be used to supply the 2.5 V
reference to the AD7490. Errors in the reference source result
in gain errors in the AD7490 transfer function and add to the
specified full-scale errors of the part. A capacitor of at least 0.1 μF
should be placed on the REF
IN
pin. Suitable reference sources
for the AD7490 include the AD780, REF192, AD1582, ADR03,
ADR381, ADR391, and ADR421.
If 2.5 V is applied to the REF
IN
pin, the analog input range can
either be 0 V to 2.5 V or 0 V to 5 V, depending on the RANGE
bit in the control register.
MODES OF OPERATION
The AD7490 has a number of different modes of operation.
These modes are designed to provide flexible power manage-
ment options. These options can be chosen to optimize the
power dissipation/throughput rate ratio for differing application
requirements. The mode of operation of the AD7490 is controlled
by the power management bits, PM1 and PM0, in the control
register, as detailed in Table 7. When power supplies are first
applied to the AD7490, care should be taken to ensure that the
part is placed in the required mode of operation (see the
Powering Up the AD7490 section).
Normal Mode (PM1 = PM0 = 1)
This mode is intended for the fastest throughput rate performance
because the user does not have to worry about any power-up
times with the AD7490 remaining fully powered at all times.
Figure 22 shows the general diagram of the operation of the
AD7490 in this mode.

Figure 22. Normal Mode Operation
The conversion is initiated on the falling edge of
CS
, and the
track-and-hold enters hold mode, as described in the Serial
Interface section. The data presented to the AD7490 on the
DIN line during the first 12 clock cycles of the data transfer is
loaded
to the control register (provided the WRITE bit is 1). If data is
to be written to the Shadow register (SEQ = 0, SHADOW = 1
on previous write), data presented on the DIN line during the
first 16 SCLK cycles is loaded into the Shadow register. The part
remains fully powered up in normal mode at the end of the
conversion as long as PM1 and PM0 are set to 1 in the write
transfer during that conversion. To ensure continued operation
in normal mode, PM1 and PM0 are both loaded with 1 on every
data transfer. Sixteen serial clock cycles are required to complete
the conversion and access the conversion result. The track-and-
hold goes back into track on the 14
th
SCLK falling edge.
CS
may
then idle high until the next conversion or may idle low until
sometime prior to the next conversion, (effectively idling
CS
low).
Once a data transfer is complete (DOUT has returned to three-
state WEAK/
TRI
bit = 0), another conversion can be initiated
after the quiet time, t
QUIET
, has elapsed by bringing
CS
low again.
Full Shutdown (PM1 = 1, PM0 = 0)
In this mode, all internal circuitry on the AD7490 is powered
down. The part retains information in the control register
during full shutdown. The AD7490 remains in full shutdown
until the power management bits in the control register, PM1
and PM0, are changed.
If a write to the control register occurs while the part is in
full shutdown, with the power management bits changed to
PM0 = PM1 = 1 (normal mode), the part begins to power up
on the
CS
rising edge. The track-and-hold that was in hold
while the part was in full shutdown returns to track on the 14
th
SCLK falling edge.
To ensure that the part is fully powered up, t
POWER UP
(t
12
) should
elapse before the next
CS
falling edge. Figure 23 shows the
general diagram for this mode.
