Reduced Power Operation
In addition to adjusting the speed/resolution of the
LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449, the speed/reso
-
lution/power dissipation may also be adjusted using the
automatic sleep mode. During the conversion cycle, the
LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 draw 8mA supply
current independent of the programmed speed. Once the
conversion cycle is completed, the device automatically
enters a low power sleep state drawing 8µA. The device
remains in this state as long as CS is HIGH and data is not
shifted out. By adjusting the duration of the sleep state
(hold CS HIGH longer) and the duration of the conversion
cycle (programming OSR) the DC power dissipation can
be reduced, see Figure 15.
Average Input Current
The LTC2444/LTC2448 switch the input and reference to
a 2pF capacitor at a frequency of 1.8MHz. A simplified
equivalent circuit is shown in Figure 16. The sample ca
-
pacitor for the LTC2445/LTC2449 is 4pF, and its average
input current is externally buffered from the input sour
ce.
The average input and reference currents can be expressed
in terms of the equivalent input resistance of the sample
capacitor, where: Req = 1/(f
SW
• Ceq)
When using the internal oscillator, f
SW
is 1.8MHz and the
equivalent resistance is approximately 110kΩ.
Input Bandwidth and Frequency Rejection
The combined effect of the internal SINC
4
digital filter and
the digital and analog autocalibration circuits determines
the LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 input bandwidth
