DESCRIPTION
The LM12458, and LM12H458 are highly integrated
Data Acquisition Systems. Operating on just 5V, they
combine a fully-differential self-calibrating (correcting
linearity and zero errors) 13-bit (12-bit + sign) analog-
to-digital converter (ADC) and sample-and-hold (S/H)
with extensive analog functions and digital
functionality. Up to 32 consecutive conversions, using
two's complement format, can be stored in an internal
32-word (16-bit wide) FIFO data buffer. An internal 8-
word RAM can store the conversion sequence for up
to eight acquisitions through the LM12(H)458's eight-
input multiplexer. The obsolete LM12454 has a four-
channel multiplexer, a differential multiplexer output,
and a differential S/H input. The LM12(H)458 can
also operate with 8-bit + sign resolution and in a
supervisory “watchdog” mode that compares an input
signal against two programmable limits.
Programmable acquisition times and conversion rates
are possible through the use of internal clock-driven
timers. The reference voltage input can be externally
generated for absolute or ratiometric operation or can
be derived using the internal 2.5V bandgap
reference.
All registers, RAM, and FIFO are directly addressable
through the high speed microprocessor interface to
either an 8-bit or 16-bit data bus. The LM12(H)458
includes a direct memory access (DMA) interface for
high-speed conversion data transfer.
Additional applications information can be found in
applications notes AN-906, AN-947 and AN-949.
