DESCRIPTION
The ADS1224 is a 4-channel, 24-bit, delta-sigma ana-
log-to-digital (A/D) converter. It offers excellent perfor-
mance and low power in a TSSOP-20 package. The
ADS1224 is well-suited for demanding, high-resolution
measurements, especially in portable systems and oth-
er space-saving and power-constrained applications.
A delta-sigma (∆Σ) modulator and digital filter form the
basis of the A/D converter. The analog modulator has
a ±5V differential input range. An input multiplexer
(MUX) is used to select between four separate
differential input channels. A buffer can be selected to
increase the input impedance of the measurement.
A simple, 2-wire serial interface provides all the
necessary control. Data retrieval, self-calibration, and
Standby mode are handled with a few simple
waveforms. When only single conversions are needed,
the ADS1224 can be quickly shut down (Standby mode)
while idle between measurements to dramatically
reduce the overall power consumption. Multiple
ADS1224s can be connected together to create a
synchronously sampling multichannel measurement
system. The ADS1224 is designed to easily connect to
microcontrollers, such as the MSP430.
The ADS1224 supports 2.7V to 5.5V analog supplies
and 2.7V to 5.5V digital supplies. Power is typically less
than 1mW in 3V operation and less than 1µW during
Standby mode.
