tsuCS. With the minimum possible sample time of 6µs,
RSOURCE+ < 5k and C1 < 20pF will provide adequate
settling time. In general for both the LTC1292 and LTC1297
keep the product of the total resistance and the total
capacitance less than tSMPL/ 9. If this condition can not be
met, then make C1 > 0.47µF (see RC Input Filtering
section).
“–” Input Settling
At the end of the sample phase the input capacitor switches
to the “–” input and the conversion starts (see Figures 11a,
11b, 11c and 12). During the conversion, the “+” input
voltage is effectively “held” by the sample-and-hold and
will not affect the conversion result. It is critical that the
