66.6ms and the conversion time of the LTC2413 is 146ms,
while the LTC2415-1 is 73ms. In systems where the SDO
pin is monitored for the end-of-conversion signal (SDO
goes low once the conversion is complete) these two
devices can be interchanged. In cases where SDO is not
monitored, a wait state is inserted between conversions,
the duration of this wait state must be greater than 66.6ms
for the LTC2415, greater than 133ms for the LTC2410,
greater than 146ms for the LTC2413 and greater than
73ms for the LTC2415-1.
PRESERVING THE CONVERTER ACCURACY
The LTC2415/LTC2415-1 are designed to reduce as much
as possible conversion result sensitivity to device
decoupling, PCB layout, antialiasing circuits, line fre-
quency perturbations and so on. Nevertheless, in order to
preserve the extreme accuracy capability of this part,
some simple precautions are desirable.
Digital Signal Levels
The LTC2415/LTC2415-1 digital interface is easy to use.
Its digital inputs (F
O
, CS and SCK in External SCK mode of
operation) accept standard TTL/CMOS logic levels and the
internal hysteresis receivers can tolerate edge rates as slow
as 100µs. However, some considerations are required to
take advantage of the exceptional accuracy and low supply
current of this converter.
The digital output signals (SDO and SCK in Internal SCK
mode of operation) are less of a concern because they are
not generally active during conversion.
While a digital input signal is in the range 0.5V to
(V
CC
␣ –␣ 0.5V), the CMOS input receiver draws additional
current from the power supply. It should be noted that,
when any one of the digital input signals (F
O
, CS and SCK
in External SCK mode of operation) is within this range, the
LTC2415/LTC2415-1 power supply current may increase
even if the signal in question is at a valid logic level. For
micropower operation, it is recommended to drive all
digital input signals to full CMOS levels [V
IL
< 0.4V and
V
OH
> (V
CC
– 0.4V)].

Timing Compatibility with the LTC2410/LTC2413
All timing modes described above are identical with re-
spect to the LTC2410/LTC2413 and LTC2415/LTC2415-1,
with one exception. The conversion time of the LTC2410
is 133ms while the conversion time of the LTC2415 is
