PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The AD1877 is a stereo, 16-bit oversampling ADC based on
Sigma Delta (∑∆) technology intended primarily for digital
audio bandwidth applications requiring a single 5 V power supply.
Each single-ended channel consists of a fourth-order one-bit
noise shaping modulator and a digital decimation filter. An on-
chip voltage reference, stable over temperature and time, defines
the full-scale range for both channels. Digital output data from
both channels are time-multiplexed to a single, flexible serial
interface. The AD1877 accepts a 256

clock (F
S
is the sampling frequency) and operates in both serial
port “master” and “slave” modes. In slave mode, all clocks must
be externally derived from a common source.
Input signals are sampled at 64

onto internally buffered
switched-capacitors, eliminating external sample-and-hold ampli-
fiers and minimizing the requirements for antialias filtering at the
input. With simplified antialiasing, linear phase can be preserved
across the passband. The on-chip single-ended to differential signal
converters save the board designer from having to provide them
externally. The AD1877’s internal differential architecture provides
increased dynamic range and excellent power supply rejection
characteristics. The AD1877’s proprietary fourth-order differen-

one-bit comparator’s quantization noise out of the audio pass-
band. The high order of the modulator randomizes the modulator
output, reducing idle tones in the AD1877 to very low levels.
Because its modulator is single-bit, AD1877 is inherently
monotonic and has no mechanism for producing differential
linearity errors.
The input section of the AD1877 uses autocalibration to correct
any dc offset voltage present in the circuit, provided that the inputs
are ac coupled. The single-ended dc input voltage can swing
between 0.7 V and 3.8 V typically. The AD1877 antialias input
circuit requires four external 470 pF NPO ceramic chip filter
capacitors, two for each channel. No active electronics are
needed. Decoupling capacitors for the supply and reference pins
are also required.
The dual digital decimation filters are triple-stage, finite impulse
response filters for effectively removing the modulator’s high
frequency quantization noise and reducing the 64

output data rate to an F

and a narrow transition band that properly digitizes 20 kHz signals
at a 44.1 kHz sampling frequency. Passband ripple is less than
0.006 dB, and stopband attenuation exceeds 90 dB.
