Input Common-Mode Range
The usable input common-mode range of the analog front-end depends on various parameters, including the
maximum differential input signal, supply voltage, and PGA gain. This range is described in Equation 2:
where:
V
MAX_DIFF
= maximum differential signal at the PGA input
CM = common-mode range (2)
For example:
If V
DD
= 3.3 V, gain = 2, and V
MAX_DIFF
= 1000 mV,
Then 1.3 V < CM < 2.0 V
Input Differential Dynamic Range
The differential (INP – INN) signal range depends on the analog supply and reference used in the system. This
range is shown in Equation 3.
(3)
For higher dynamic range, a 5-V supply with a 4-V reference (set by the VREF_4V bit of the CONFIG3 register)
can be used to increase the differential dynamic range.
ADC ΔΣ Modulator
Each ADS131E0x channel has a ΔΣ ADC. This converter uses a second-order modulator optimized for low-
power applications. The modulator samples the input signal at the rate of [f
MOD
= f
CLK
/ 2]. As in the case of any
ΔΣ modulator, the ADS131E0x noise is shaped until f
MOD
/ 2, as shown in Figure 22. The on-chip digital
decimation filters also provide antialias filtering. This ΔΣ converter feature drastically reduces the complexity of
the analog antialiasing filters typically required with nyquist ADCs.
