DESCRIPTIO
The LTC®2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 are 8-/16-
channel (4-/8-differential) high speed 24-bit No Latency
∆ΣTM ADCs. They use a proprietary delta-sigma architec-
ture enabling variable speed/resolution. Through a simple
4-wire serial interface, ten speed/resolution combinations
6.9Hz/280nVRMS to 3.5kHz/25µVRMS (4kHz with external
oscillator) can be selected with no latency between con-
version results or shift in DC accuracy (offset, full-scale,
linearity, drift). Additionally, a 2X speed mode can be
selected enabling output rates up to 7kHz (8kHz if an
external oscillator is used) with one cycle latency.
Any combination of single-ended or differential inputs can
be selected with a common mode input range from ground
to VCC, independent of VREF. While operating in the 1X
speed mode the first conversion following a new speed,
resolution, or channel selection is valid. Since there is no
settling time between conversions, all 8 differential chan-
nels can be scanned at a rate of 500Hz. At the conclusion
of each conversion, the converter is internally reset elimi-
nating any memory effects between successive conver-
sions and assuring stability of the high order delta-sigma
modulator.
