Reference Inputs
The reference inputs VRT (Top Reference Voltage ) and VRB (Bottom Reference Voltage) are the top and bottom of the reference ladder of ADC. ? (with VDD = +5.0V). The top and bottom of the ladder should be bypassed with 10F tantalum capacitors located close to the reference pins, as shown in Figure 5. Superior performance can generally be achieved by driving the reference pins with a low impedance source. By forcing a little current into or out of the top and bottom of the ladder, the top and bottom reference voltages can be trimmed. The resistive divider at the amplifier inputs can be replaced with potentiometers. The operation amplifier shown was chosen for its low offset voltage and low cost. Note that a negative power supply is needed for these amplifiers as their outputs may be required to go slightly negative to force the required reference voltages. ? If ADC input is smaller than or equal to VRB, ADC outputs 0, if ADC input is large than or equal VRT, ADC output s 255.User can adjust VRT/VRB adequately to obtain better image quality. Its recommend that VRB is set to 2.9V and VRT is set to 4.3V.
