AD7485 TERMINOLOGY Total Harmonic Distortion Integral Nonlinearity
Total harmonic distortion (THD) is the ratio of the rms sum This is the maximum deviation from a straight line passing of the harmonics to the fundamental. For the AD7485, it is through the endpoints of the ADC transfer function. The end- defined as: 2 2 2 2 2 points of the transfer function are zero scale, a point 1/2 LSB V2 + V3 + V4 + V5 + V THD dB 20 log ( ) = 6 below the first code transition, and full scale, a point 1/2 LSB V1 above the last code transition. where V1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental and V2, V3,

Peak Harmonic or Spurious Noise Offset Error
Peak harmonic or spurious noise is defined as the ratio of the This is the deviation of the first code transition (00 . 000) to rms value of the next largest component in the ADC output (00 . 001) from the ideal, i.e., AGND + 0.5 LSB. spectrum (up to fS/2 and excluding dc) to the rms value of the fundamental. Normally, the value of this specification is deter-

Intermodulation Distortion Track/Hold Acquisition Time
With inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and fb, Track/hold acquisition time is the time required for the output any active device with nonlinearities will create distortion products of the track/hold amplifier to reach its final value, within ±1/2 LSB, at sum and difference frequencies of mfa ± nfb where m, n = 0, 1, 2, after the end of conversion (the point at which the track/hold 3, and so on. Intermodulation distortion terms are those for which returns to track mode). neither m nor n is equal to zero. For example, the second-order

In this case, the second-order terms are usually distanced The ratio is dependent on the number of quantization levels in in frequency from the original sine waves while the third-order the digitization process; the more levels, the smaller the quanti- terms are usually at a frequency close to the input frequencies. zation noise.
