An internal test current source is provided for basic func-
tionality testing and diagnostics. This approximately 100nA
current source is pin activated and sums with the external
input current.
Figure 3 shows a more detailed circuit configuration of the
DDC101. The single integration capacitor, C
INT
, and the
D/A converter have been replaced with a high resolution
Capacitor Digital-to-Analog Converter (CDAC). By switch-
ing between ground and V
REF
the binary weighted capacitor
array of the CDAC accumulates the input signal’s charge to
keep the comparator input at virtual ground.
