#120336 - AD7798 with 89S52 - ADC failure
AD7798 ADC( 16 bit ADC -Analog devices) was used with Atmel 89S52. Inteface as follows
5V LDO (Micrel make) – 10 uF tantalum and 0.1 uf mlc at output - Vout
Vout is given to analog Vcc of ADC through a ferrite bead and a 0.1uF mlc to GND- Va
Vout is also given to uC and display circuit through 27ohms and ferrite bead and 0.1 uF mlc – Vdd
Va is given to the digital supply of ADC through a ferrite bead and 0.1 uF mlc.
We made some pcbs and tested. Initially they were all ok but 25% of them failed within a day. Others continue to work ( now about 3 weeks).
After carefull analysis I could make out perhaps one grey area – ie. uC supply is less than that of the ADC. Can it do any harm. Or have I missed any thing ?
