CHOP ENABLED (SINC
3
FILTER)
With chop enabled, the ADC offset and offset drift are minimized.
The analog input pins are continuously swapped. With the analog
input pins connected in one direction, the settling time of the
sinc filter is allowed and a conversion is recorded. The analog
input pins invert and another settled conversion is obtained.
Subsequent conversions are averaged to minimize the offset.
This continuous swapping of the analog input pins and the
averaging of subsequent conversions means that the offset drift
is also minimized. With chop enabled, the resolution increases
by 0.5 bits. Using the sinc
3
filter with chop enabled is suitable
for output data rates up to 320 Hz.

Output Data Rate and Settling Time (Sinc

Chop Enabled)
For the sinc
3
filter, the output data rate is equal to
f
ADC
= f
CLK
/(3 × 1024 × FS[9:0])
where:
f
ADC
is the output data rate.
f
CLK
is the master clock (4.92 MHz nominal).
FS[9:0] is the decimal equivalent of Bit FS9 to Bit FS0 in the
mode register.
The value of FS[9:0] can be varied from 1 to 1023. This results
in an output data rate of 1.56 Hz to 1600 Hz. The settling time is
equal to
t
SETTLE
= 2/f

When a channel change occurs, the modulator and filter are reset.
The complete settling time is required to generate the first
conversion after the channel change. Subsequent conversions
on this channel occur at 1/f

Figure 50. Channel Change (Sinc

Chop Enable)
If conversions are performed on a single channel and a step
change occurs, the ADC does not detect the change in analog
input; therefore, it continues to output conversions at the
programmed output data rate. However, it is at least two
conversions later before the output data accurately reflects
the analog input. If the step change occurs while the ADC is
processing a conversion, then the ADC takes three conversions
after the step change to generate a fully settled result.

50 Hz/60 Hz Rejection (Sinc

Chop Enabled)
When FS[9:0] is set to 96 and chopping is enabled, the filter
response shown in Figure 52 is obtained. The output data rate
is equal to 16.7 Hz for a 4.92 MHz master clock. The chopping
introduces notches at odd integer multiples of f
ADC
/2. The notches
due to the sinc filter in addition to the notches introduced by
the chopping means that simultaneous 50 Hz and 60 Hz rejection
is achieved for an output data rate of 16.7 Hz. The rejection at
50 Hz/60 Hz ± 1 Hz is typically 53 dB, assuming a stable
master clock.
