Some applications may require that the conversion be initiated
by the microprocessor rather than an external timer. One
option is to decode the AD7863
CONVST
from the address bus
so that a write operation starts a conversion. Data is read at the
end of the conversion sequence as before.
Figure 23 shows an
example of initiating conversion using this method. Note that
for all interfaces, it is preferred that a read operation not be
attempted during conversion.
AD7863 TO MC68000 INTERFACE
An interface between the AD7863 and the MC68000 is shown
in
Figure 22. As before, conversion can be supplied from the
MC68000 or from an external source. The AD7863 BUSY line
can be used to interrupt the processor or, alternatively, software
delays can ensure that conversion has been completed before a
read to the AD7863 is attempted. Because of the nature of its
interrupts, the MC68000 requires additional logic (not shown
in
Figure 23) to allow it to be interrupted correctly. For further
information on MC68000 interrupts, consult the MC68000
users manual.
The MC68000
AS
and R/
W
outputs are used to generate a
separate
RD
input signal for the AD7863.
CS
is used to drive
the MC68000
DTACK
input to allow the processor to execute
a normal read operation to the AD7863. The conversion results
are read using the following MC68000 instruction:
MOVE.W ADC, D0
where:
D0 is the 68000 D0 register.
ADC is the AD7863 address.

AD7863 TO 80C196 INTERFACE
Figure 23 shows an interface between the AD7863 and the
80C196 microprocessor. Here, the microprocessor initiates
conversion. This is achieved by gating the 80C196
WR
signal
with a decoded address output (different from the AD7863
CS
address). The AD7863 BUSY line is used to interrupt the
microprocessor when the conversion sequence is completed.

VECTOR MOTOR CONTROL
The current drawn by a motor can be split into two components:
one produces torque and the other produces magnetic flux.
For optimal performance of the motor, these two components
should be controlled independently. In conventional methods of
controlling a three-phase motor, the current (or voltage)
supplied to the motor and the frequency of the drive are the
basic control variables. However, both the torque and flux are
functions of current (or voltage) and frequency. This coupling
effect can reduce the performance of the motor because, for
example, if the torque is increased by increasing the frequency,
the flux tends to decrease.

Vector control of an ac motor involves controlling the phase in
addition to drive and current frequency. Controlling the phase
of the motor requires feedback information on the position of
the rotor relative to the rotating magnetic field in the motor.
Using this information, a vector controller mathematically
transforms the three phase drive currents into separate torque
and flux components. The AD7863 is ideally suited for use in
vector motor control applications.
A block diagram of a vector motor control application using the
AD7863 is shown in
Figure 24. The position of the field is
derived by determining the current in each phase of the motor.
Only two phase currents need to be measured because the third
can be calculated if two phases are known. V
A1
and V
A2
of the
AD7863 are used to digitize this information.
Simultaneous sampling is critical to maintaining the relative
phase information between the two channels. A current sensing
isolation amplifier, transformer, or Hall effect sensor is used
between the motor and the AD7863. Rotor information is
obtained by measuring the voltage from two of the inputs to the
motor. V
B1
and V
B2
of the AD7863 are used to obtain this
information. Once again the relative phase of the two channels
is important. A DSP microprocessor is used to perform the
mathematical transformations and control loop calculations on
the information fed back by the AD7863.

MULTIPLE AD7863S
Figure 25 shows a system where a number of AD7863s can be
configured to handle multiple input channels. This type of
configuration is common in applications such as sonar and
radar. The AD7863 is specified with typical limits on aperture
delay. This means that the user knows the difference in the
sampling instant between all channels. This allows the user to
maintain relative phase information between the different
channels.

Figure 25. Multiple AD7863s in Multichannel System
A common read signal from the microprocessor drives the
RD
input of all AD7863s. Each AD7863 is designated a unique
address selected by the address decoder. The reference output of
AD7863 Number 1 is used to drive the reference input of all
other AD7863s in the circuit shown in
Figure 25. One V
REF
can
be used to provide the reference to several other AD7863s.
Alternatively, an external or system reference can be used to
drive all V
REF
inputs. A common reference ensures good full-
scale tracking between all channels.

APPLICATIONS HINTS
PC BOARD LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
The AD7863 is optimally designed for lowest noise performance,
both radiated and conducted noise. To complement the
excellent noise performance of the AD7863 it is imperative that
great care be given to the PC board layout.
Figure 26 shows a
recommended connection diagram for the AD7863.
GROUND PLANES
The AD7863 and associated analog circuitry should have a
separate ground plane, referred to as the analog ground plane
(AGND). This analog ground plane should encompass all
AD7863 ground pins (including the DGND pin), voltage
reference circuitry, power supply bypass circuitry, the analog
input traces, and any associated input/buffer amplifiers.
The regular PCB ground plane (referred to as the DGND for
this discussion) area should encompass all digital signal traces,
excluding the ground pins, leading up to the AD7863.
POWER PLANES
The PC board layout should have two distinct power planes,
one for analog circuitry and one for digital circuitry. The analog
power plane should encompass the AD7863 (V
DD
) and all
associated analog circuitry. This power plane should be
connected to the regular PCB power plane (V
CC
) at a single
point, if necessary through a ferrite bead, as illustrated in
Figure 26. This bead (part numbers for reference:
Fair-Rite 274300111 or Murata BL01/02/03) should be located
within three inches of the AD7863.
The PCB power plane (V
CC
) should provide power to all digital
logic on the PC board, and the analog power plane (V
DD
) should
provide power to all AD7863 power pins, voltage reference
circuitry and any input amplifiers, if needed. A suitable low
noise amplifier for the AD7863 is the AD797, one for each
input. Ensure that the +V
S
and the −V
S
supplies to each
amplifier are individually decoupled to AGND.
The PCB power (V
CC
) and ground (DGND) should not overlay
portions of the analog power plane (V
DD
). Keeping the V
CC
power and the DGND planes from overlaying the V
DD
contributes
to a reduction in plane-to-plane noise coupling.
SUPPLY DECOUPLING
Noise on the analog power plane (V
DD
) can be further reduced
by use of multiple decoupling capacitors (
Figure 26).
Optimum performance is achieved by the use of disc ceramic
capacitors. The V
DD
and reference pins (whether using an
external or an internal reference) should be individually
decoupled to the analog ground plane (AGND). This should be
done by placing the capacitors as close as possible to the
AD7863 pins with the capacitor leads as short as possible, thus
minimizing lead inductance.
