Internal Reference Generator, V
ROUT
and V
RIN
The HI5808 has an internal reference generator, therefore, no
external reference voltage is required. V

must be
connected to V
RIN
when using the internal reference voltage.
The HI5808 can be used with an external reference. The
converter requires only one external reference voltage con-
nected to the V
RIN
pin with V

left open.
The HI5808 is tested with V
RIN
equal to 3.5V. Internal to the
converter, two reference voltages of 1.3V and 3.3V are
generated for a fully differential input signal range of
±
2V.

Analog Input, Differential Connection
The analog input to the HI5808 can be configured in various
ways depending on the signal source and the required level
of performance. A fully differential connection (Figure 15) will
give the best performance for the converter.
Since the HI5808 is powered off a single +5V supply, the
analog input must be biased so it lies within the analog input
common mode voltage range of 1.0V to 4.0V. The
performance of the ADC does not change significantly with
the value of the analog input common mode voltage.
A 2.3V DC bias voltage source, V
DC
, half way between the
top and bottom internal reference voltages, is made avail-
able to the user to help simplify circuit design when using a
differential input. This low output impedance voltage source
is not designed to be a reference but makes an excellent
bias source and stays within the analog input common mode
voltage range over temperature.
The difference between the converter’s two internal voltage
references is 2V. For the AC coupled differential input, (Figure
15), if V

converter will be at positive full scale, all 1s digital data output

at V

-1V (V

at negative full scale, all 0s digital data output code, when
the V

DC
-1V and V
IN
- is at V
DC
+1V
(V
IN
+-V
IN
- = -2V). From this, the converter is seen to have
a peak-to-peak differential analog input voltage range of
±
2V.
The analog input can be DC coupled (Figure 16) as long as
the inputs are within the analog input common mode voltage
range (1.0V
≤
VDC
≤
4.0V).
The resistors, R, in Figure 16 are not absolutely necessary
but may be used as load setting resistors. A capacitor, C,
connected from V
