LTC2482
16-Bit ΔΣ ADC with
Easy Drive Input Current
Cancellation
DESCRIPTION
The LTC®2482 combines a 16-bit plus sign No Latency ΔΣ™
analog-to-digital converter with patented Easy Drive
technology. The patented sampling scheme eliminates
dynamic input current errors and the shortcomings of on-
chip buffering through automatic cancellation of differential
input current. This allows large external source impedances
and input signals with rail-to-rail input range to be directly
digitized while maintaining exceptional DC accuracy.
The LTC2482 allows a wide common mode input range
(0V to VCC) independent of the reference voltage. The
reference can be as low as 100mV or can be tied directly
to VCC. The noise level is 600nV RMS independent of
VREF . This allows direct digitization of low level signals
with 16-bit accuracy. The LTC2482 includes an on-chip
trimmed oscillator, eliminating the need for external crystals
or oscillators and provides 87dB rejection of 50Hz and
60Hz line frequency noise. Absolute accuracy and low
drift are automatically maintained through continuous,
transparent, offset and full-scale calibration.
