DESCRIPTIO
The LTC®2446/LTC2447 4-terminal switching enables
multiplexed ratiometric measurements. Four sets of se-
lectable differential inputs coupled with four sets of differ-
ential reference inputs allow multiple RTDs, bridges and
other sensors to be digitized by a single converter. A fifth
differential reference input can be selected for any input
channel not requiring ratiometric measurements (ther-
mocouples, voltages, current sense, etc.). The flexible
input multiplexer allows single-ended or differential in-
puts coupled with a slaved reference input or a universal
reference input.
A proprietary delta-sigma architecture results in absolute
accuracy (offset, full-scale, linearity) of 15ppm, noise as
low as 200nVRMS and speeds as high as 8kHz. Through a
simple 4-wire interface, ten speed/resolution combina-
tions can be selected. The first conversion following a
speed, resolution, channel change or reference change is
valid since there is no settling time between conversions,
enabling scan rates of up to 4kHz. Additionally, a 2x mode
can be selected for any speed-enabling output rates up to
8kHz with one cycle of latency.
