REFERENCE CIRCUIT
The ADS5510 has built-in internal reference generation, requiring no external circuitry on the printed circuit
board (PCB). For optimum performance, it is best to connect both REFP and REFM to ground with a 1-µF
decoupling capacitor (the 1-Ω resistor shown in Figure 29 is optional). In addition, an external 56.2-kΩ resistor
should be connected from IREF (pin 31) to AGND to set the proper current for the operation of the ADC, as
shown in Figure 29. No capacitor should be connected between pin 31 and ground; only the 56.2-kΩ resistor
should be used.

CLOCK INPUT
The ADS5510 clock input can be driven with either a differential clock signal or a single-ended clock input, with
little or no difference in performance between both configurations. The common-mode voltage of the clock inputs
is set internally to CM (pin 17) using internal 5-kΩ resistors that connect CLKP (pin 10) and CLKM (pin 11) to
CM (pin 17), as shown in Figure 30.

When driven with a single-ended CMOS clock input, it is best to connect CLKM (pin 11) to ground with a
0.01-µF capacitor, while CLKP is ac-coupled with a 0.01-µF capacitor to the clock source, as shown in
Figure 31.
