Hi,
I am trying to build a 10-bit ADC circuit... and the ADC I have chosen has both analogue and digital power and ground pins. The circuit I have, will be have a DC source and no analogue input. In the ADC datasheet, it says, I can share the analogue supply with the digital.
I am confused as to how to introduce an analogue supply to a system with a DC source. The final application will be powered by battery - so using a seperate analogue supply is not really an option. Is it possible to use the DC power supply rails for the ADC analogue supply as well - or is there something I need to do to convert it to analogue.
The ADC chip I am using is a AD7470 from analog devices.
Any help would be much appreciated.
