ZHCSE42D April 2015 – April 2019 ADS54J60
PRODUCTION DATA.
Figure 145 shows a histogram of output codes when no signal is applied at the analog inputs of the ADS54J60. When the dc offset correction block of the device is bypassed, Figure 146 shows that the output code histogram becomes multi-modal with as many as four peaks because the ADS54J60 is a 4-way interleaved ADC with each ADC core having a different internal dc offset.
When the dc offset correction block is frozen (instead of being bypassed), as shown in Figure 147, the output code histogram improves (compared to when bypassed). However, when temperature changes, the dc offset difference among interleaving cores may increase, resulting in increased spacing between peaks in the histogram.
