What circuit methods do you recommend for keeping digital input signal transitions from showing up on the analog inputs?
I'm using the AD2 as a mixed-signal scope to view low-amplitude differential analog signals and twiddle/debug GPIO bits from an MCU (48 MHz). I'm using the flywire harness (connected to a custom PCB mounted on an NXP FRDM-KL25Z MCU eval. board). The analog signals are picking up the transitions on the digital input signals and ringing at ~40 MHz. Adding a series resistor (e.g. 1k) reduces the noise about 5x, and capacitor (e.g. 10 nF) does by about another 2x, though I haven't looked at the impact on signal timing perceived by the AD2.
Before I spend too much time reading up on snubber networks and RC filters I figured I'd ask if your other customers have run into this and what the common solutions are.
