The LTC®2487 is a 4-channel (2 differential), 16-bit,
No Latency ∆S™ ADC with Easy Drive technology and a
2-wire, I2C interface. The patented sampling scheme elimi-
nates 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 rail-to-rail input signals to be directly
digitized while maintaining exceptional DC accuracy.
The LTC2487 includes programmable gain, a high accuracy
temperature sensor and an integrated oscillator. This device
can be configured to measure an external signal (from com-
binations of 4 analog input channels operating in single-
ended or differential modes) or its internal temperature
sensor. The integrated temperature sensor offers 1/2°C
resolution and 2°C absolute accuracy. The LTC2487 can
be configured to provide a programmable gain from 1 to
256 in 8 steps.
The LTC2487 allows a wide common mode input range
(0V to VCC), independent of the reference voltage. Any
combination of single-ended or differential inputs can
be selected and the first conversion, after a new channel
is selected, is valid. Access to the multiplexer output en-
ables optional external amplifiers to be shared between all
analog inputs and auto calibration continuously removes
their associated offset and drift.
