APPLICATION INFORMATION
As discussed before, the ADS8284 is 18-bit analog SoC that includes various blocks like a multiplexer, ADC
driver, internal reference, internal reference buffer, buffered reference output, and Ref/2 output on-board. The
following diagram shows the recommended analog and digital interfacing of the ADS8284.

Figure 70. Analog and Digital Interface Diagram
As shown in Figure 70, the ADS8284 accepts unipolar differential analog inputs in the range of ±Vref with a
common-mode voltage of Vref/2 (0 to Vref at positive input and Vref to 0 at negative input). An application may
require the interfacing of true bipolar input signals. Figure 71 shows the conversion of bipolar input signals to
unipolar differential signals.
