ADS1216
SBAS171D NOVEMBER 2000 REVISED SEPTEMBER 2006
8-Channel, 24-Bit
ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTER
24 BITS, NO MISSING CODES
The ADS1216 is a precision, wide dynamic range,
delta-sigma, Analog-to-Digital (A/D) converter with
0.0015% INL
24-bit resolution operating from 2.7V to 5.25V
22 BITS EFFECTIVE RESOLUTION
supplies. The delta-sigma A/D converter provides up
(PGA = 1), 19 BITS (PGA = 128)
to 24 bits of no-missing-code performance and an
PGA FROM 1 TO 128
effective resolution of 22 bits.
SINGLE-CYCLE SETTLING MODE
The eight input channels are multiplexed. Internal
PROGRAMMABLE DATA OUTPUT RATES:
buffering can be selected to provide a very high input
up to 1kHz
impedance for direct connection to transducers or
low-level voltage signals. Burnout current sources
ON-CHIP 1.25V/2.5V REFERENCE
are provided that allow for the detection of an open
EXTERNAL DIFFERENTIAL REFERENCE:
or shorted sensor. An 8-bit Digital-to-Analog
0.1V to 2.5V
Converter (DAC) provides an offset correction with a
ON-CHIP CALIBRATION
range of 50% of the FSR (Full-Scale Range).
SPI™-COMPATIBLE
The PGA (Programmable Gain Amplifier) provides
selectable gains of 1 to 128 with an effective
2.7V TO 5.25V
resolution of 19 bits at a gain of 128. The A/D
< 1mW POWER CONSUMPTION
conversion is accomplished with a second-order
delta-sigma modulator and programmable sinc filter.
The reference input is differential and can be used
INDUSTRIAL PROCESS CONTROL
for ratiometric cancellation. The onboard current
LIQUID/GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY
DACs operate independently with the maximum
current set by an external resistor.
BLOOD ANALYSIS
SMART TRANSMITTERS
The serial interface is SPI-compatible. Eight bits of
digital I/O are also provided that can be used for
PORTABLE INSTRUMENTATION
input or output. The ADS1216 is designed for
WEIGHT SCALES
high-resolution measurement applications in smart
PRESSURE TRANSDUCERS
transmitters, industrial process control, weight
scales, chromatography, and portable
instrumentation.
