Rev A Locked Architecture Details

Run AD5940 datasheet limits review only.
Do not modify schematic wiring. Do not add components. Do not change nets.
Review the AD5940 placeholder against datasheet/application-circuit requirements and identify what must be locked before PCB layout.
Check:
  1. Rail requirements:
  • AVDD valid voltage range
  • DVDD valid voltage range
  • IOVDD / digital I/O rail requirement
  • REG_1V8 role
  • whether DVDD_AD5940 may remain tied to MCU_3V3: yes/no/uncertain
  • whether separate 1.8 V rail placeholder is required: yes/no/uncertain
  1. SPI/logic compatibility:
  • whether STM32L552 3.3 V SPI can directly connect to AD5940: yes/no/uncertain
  • whether level shifting may be required: yes/no/uncertain
  1. BioZ/EIS pins:
  • map placeholder nets to likely AD5940 pins/functions: AD5940_I_PLUS_PATH AD5940_I_MINUS_PATH AD5940_V_PLUS_PATH AD5940_V_MINUS_PATH AD5940_CURRENT_SENSE_P AD5940_CURRENT_SENSE_N AD5940_EXC_MON AD5940_AIN_MON
  1. Application-circuit blockers:
  • required external references
  • required RTIA/RLOAD/RCAL components
  • required clock/crystal if any
  • required decoupling not already represented
  • required reset/interrupt/control pins
  1. Pre-layout decision: Choose one: A. Keep AD5940 as placeholder only B. Add separate 1.8 V LDO placeholder C. Add level-shifter placeholder only D. Split DVDD_AD5940 from MCU_3V3 E. Need human datasheet review before schematic changes
Report only:
  • AD5940 rail blockers
  • SPI/logic blockers
  • missing application-circuit components
  • recommended next schematic action
  • whether current AD5940 section is safe for PCB layout: yes/no
I’ll run a read-only AD5940 datasheet-limits review against the current placeholder section, check rails, SPI logic, pin-role mapping, and application-circuit gaps, then report only the blockers and next action.
STOP

Sorry for the wait — almost done...

Rev A Locked Architecture
Bench EchoSpec AFE V7 uses:
  • One AD5940 only.
  • Seven live electrode inputs: E1 through E7.
  • One dedicated calibration/reference node labeled CAL_COM or CAL_REF.
  • CAL_COM must not be labeled E8.
  • Four identical 16:1 analog muxes: MUX_I_PLUS, MUX_I_MINUS, MUX_V_PLUS, MUX_V_MINUS.
  • All four muxes use the same IN0-IN15 channel map.
  • Calibration standards are pseudo-electrodes.
  • Real and calibration paths must use the same mux family and same one-switch-per-terminal path.
  • Calibration components use thin-film resistors and C0G/NP0 capacitors only.
  • No X7R, X5R, Y5V, Z5U, electrolytic, or tantalum capacitors in calibration, HSTIA, phase-reference, or precision analog paths.
