solete Product(s) The minimum value for CIN is determined by the ac-
b curacy required, the time taken to sample the input
O and the input impedance during that time, while the
- maximum value is determined by the required fre-
) quency response and the value of RS.
t(s Thus for a resistive input A/D connector where :
c TS = Sample time (Seconds)
du RD = Device input resistance (Ohms)
ro VIN = Input voltage (Volts)
P k = Required accuracy (%)
te Q1 = Charge on capacitor before sampling
le Q2 = Charge on capacitor after sampling
o ID = Device input current (Amps)
ObsThus :
k ⋅ Q1
Q1– Q2 = 100
but
Q1 = CIN VIN
and
Q1– Q2 = ID – TS
so that
and
so
k ⋅ CIN – VIN
ID TS =
100
ID ⋅ TS
CIN (min) = VIN ⋅ k Farad
100 ⋅ TS
CIN (min) = k ⋅ RD Farad
The calculation for a sample and hold type convertor
is even simpler :
k = Required accuracy (%)
CH = Hold capacitor (Farad)
100 ⋅ CH
CIN (min) = k
