GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Analog Devices' model AD2010 represents an advance in price!
performance capabilities of 3~ digit digital panel meters. The
AD20l0 offers O.OS%~l digit maximum error with bipolar,
single ended input, resolution of lO°StV, .and a common mode
rejection ratio of 60dB (CMRR) at %lOOm (CMV).
V
The AD20l0 features a light-cmitting-diode (LED) display
with a full scale range of 0 to ~l99.9 miRivolts, latched digital
data outputs and control interface signals, and leading zero dis-
play blanking. Automatic-zero correction circuitry measures
and compensates for offset and offset drift errors, thereby
providing virtually no error. Another useful feature of the
AD20l0 is its SV de operation. The AD20l0 can operate from
the users' SV de system supply, thereby eliminating the shield-
ing and dc:coupling needed for line powered units when the ac
line must be routed near signal leads.
To satisfy most application requirements, the conversion rate
of the AD2010 is normal1y 4 readings per second. However, an
external trigger may be applied to vary the sampling rates from
a maximum of 24 readings per second down to an indef'mite
hold time. The AD2010 can also be connected for automaric
conversion at its maximum conversion rate. During conversion,
the previous reading is held by the latched logic. The numeric
readout is available as BCD
da.ta.Applica.tion
of the metering
system in a computer or data logging system is made easy with
the availability of the "overrange," "polarity, It...overload,"
and "statUs" signals.
A simplified block diagram of the AD20l0, illustrating the
features described above is shown in Figure 1.

IMPROVED NOISE IMMUNITY, ACCURACY AND
ZERO STABILITY
Dual-slope integration, as used in the AD2010 and as described
in the tbeory of operation section, offers several design benefits.
. Conversion accuracy, for example, is independent of both
the timing capacitor value and the clock frequency, since
they affect both the up ramp and down ramp integration
in the same ratio.
. Normal mode noise at line frequencies or its harmonics is
rejected since the average value of this noise is zero over the
integration period.
. To achieve Zero stability, a time interval during each conver-
sion is provided to allow the automatic-zero correction cir-
cuitry to measure and compensate for offset and offset drift
errors, thereby, providing virtUally no zero error.

External Trigger - Operation in the "External Trigger"
mode requires that the "EXternal Hold" input be a logic
"0" or sround.
Neptive Triaer Pulses - Applying a logical "low" to
the "HOLD" input disables the internal trigger. A
negative trigger pulse (logic "I" to logic "0") of
1.0p.s minimum applied to the "EXT TRIGGER" in-
put will initiate conversion in the same manner as the
internal oscillator. The eXternal trigger should not be
repeated, however, until the "status" indicates com-
pletion of the convetsion in process.

used to trigger the AD20 10 from a "normally low"
signal with the "EXT TRIGGER" input open or logic "1".
Following a "hold" a new reading will be initiated on the
leading edge of the "hold" signal Thus, a mo~ntary
positive pulse on the "HOLD" input can be used to
trigger the AD201O. The drift correct interval, how-
ever, begins on the trailing edge of the positive pulse,
so if [he pulse width exceeds 1ms, the conversion will
actually be initiated by the internal trigger.
