LTC2444/LTC2445/ LTC2448/LTC2449 24-Bit High Speed 8-/16-Channel ∆∑ ADCs with Selectable Speed/Resolution FeaTuresDescripTion n Up to 8 Differential or 16 Single-Ended Input Channels The LTC®2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 are 8-/16- n Up to 8kHz Output Rate (External fO) channel (4-/8-differential) high speed 24-bit No Latency n Up to 4kHz Multiplexing Rate (External fO) ∆Σ™ ADCs. They use a proprietary delta-sigma architec- n Selectable Speed/Resolution ture enabling variable speed/resolution. Through a simple n 2µVRMS Noise at 1.76kHz Output Rate 4-wire serial interface, ten speed/resolution combinations n 200nVRMS Noise at 13.8Hz Output Rate with 6.9Hz/280nVRMS to 3.5kHz/25µVRMS (4kHz with external Simultaneous 50Hz/60Hz Rejection oscillator) can be selected with no latency between con- n Guaranteed Modulator Stability and Lock-Up version results or shift in DC accuracy (offset, full-scale, Immunity for any Input and Reference Conditions linearity, drift). Additionally, a 2X speed mode can be n 0.0005% INL, No Missing Codes selected enabling output rates up to 7kHz (8kHz if an n Autosleep Enables 20µA Operation at 6.9Hz external oscillator is used) with one cycle latency. n <5µV Offset (4.5V < VCC < 5.5V, –40°C to 85°C) Any combination of single-ended or differential inputs n Differential Input and Differential Reference withGND to V can be selected with a common mode input range from CC Common Mode Range ground to V n No Latency Mode, Each Conversion is Accurate Even CC, independent of VREF. While operating in After a New Channel is Selected the 1X speed mode the first conversion following a new speed, resolution, or channel selection is valid. Since n Internal Oscillator—No External Components there is no settling time between conversions, all 8 dif- n LTC2445/LTC2449 Include MUXOUT/ADCIN for External Buffering or Gain ferential channels can be scanned at a rate of 500Hz. At the conclusion of each conversion, the converter is n Tiny QFN 5mm × 7mm Package internally reset eliminating any memory effects between applicaTions successive conversions and assuring stability of the high order delta-sigma modulator. n High Speed Multiplexing L n , LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks and Weight Scales No Latency ∆∑ and SoftSpan are trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.
