DITHER SETTINGS

All modulators include a dithering algorithm that can be

enabled through the DITHER<1:0> bits in the

Configuration register. This dithering process improves

THD and SFDR (for high OSR settings), while slightly

increasing the noise floor of the ADCs. For power

metering applications and applications that are

distortion sensitive, it is recommended to keep DITHER

at maximum settings for best THD and SFDR

performance. In the case of power metering

applications, THD and SFDR are critical specifications.

Optimizing SNR (noise floor) is not problematic due to

the large averaging factor at the output of the ADCs.

Therefore, even for low OSR settings, the dithering

algorithm will show a positive impact on the

performance of the application.

SINC3 + SINC1 Filter

The decimation filter present in all channels of the

MCP3913 is a cascade of two sinc filters (sinc3+sinc1):

a third order sinc filter with a decimation ratio of OSR3,

followed by a first order sinc filter with a decimation

ratio of OSR1 (moving average of OSR1 values).

Figure 5-2 represents the decimation filter architecture.

function.

FUNCTION

Equation 5-2 calculates the settling time of the ADC as

a function of DMCLK periods.

EQUATION 5-2:

The SINC1 filter following the SINC3 filter is only

enabled for the high OSR settings (OSR > 512). This

SINC1 filter provides additional rejection at a low cost

with little modification to the -3 dB bandwidth. The

resolution (number of possible output codes expressed

in powers of two or in bits) of the digital filter is 24-bit

maximum for any OSR and data format choice. The

resolution depends only on the OSR<2:0> settings in

the CONFIG0 register per the Table 5-3. Once the OSR

is chosen, the resolution is fixed and the output code
