Chapter 2 Analog Interface The ADS8402/ADS8412EVM analog-to-digital converter has a unipolar differential input. A unipolar differential input is a differential signal (inverting and noninverting input is 180 degrees out of phase) that is level shifted such that the signals levels are always equal to or above zero volts. The peak-to-peak amplitude on each input pin can be as large as the reference voltage. See the respective product data sheet for more information. Topic Page 2.1 Signal Condit

Signal Conditioning 2.1 Signal Conditioning The ADS8402/ADS8412EVM comes installed with the unity gain buffer (U2) wired for single-ended in to differential out configuration. The common-mode voltage is derived from a REF3040 reference IC and is adjustable using a potentiometer (R9). The common-mode voltage pin of the THS4503 is set to 2 V on the evaluation module. A single-ended input signal can be applied at pin connector P1 or via SMA connectors J2 (noninverting input). The buffer circuit can
