ADC1415S series
Single 14-bit ADC; input buffer; CMOS or LVDS DDR digital outputs
11.3 System reference and power management
11.3.1 Internal/external references
The ADC1415S has a stable and accurate built-in internal reference voltage to adjust the
ADC full-scale. This reference voltage can be set internally via SPI or with pins VREF and
SENSE (programmable in 1 dB steps between 0 dB and 6 dB via control bits
INTREF[2:0] when bit INTREF_EN = logic 1; see Table 21
) See Figure 18 to Figure 21.
The equivalent reference circuit is shown in Figure 17
. External reference is also possible
by providing a voltage on pin VREF as described in Figure 20
.
If bit INTREF_EN is set to logic 0, the reference voltage is determined either internally or
externally as detailed in Table 11
.
[1] The voltage on pin VREF is doubled internally to generate the internal reference voltage.
