channel (4-/8-differential) high speed 24-bit No Latency
∆Σ
TM
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/280nV
RMS
to 3.5kHz/25µV
RMS
(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 V
CC
, independent of V
REF
. 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.

Note 5:
Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 6:
Integral nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of a code from a
straight line passing through the actual endpoints of the transfer curve.
The deviation is measured from the center of the quantization band.
PI FU CTIO S
GND (Pins 1, 4, 5, 6, 31, 32, 33):
Ground. Multiple
ground pins internally connected for optimum ground
current flow and V
CC
decoupling. Connect each one of
these pins to a common ground plane through a low
impedance connection. All 7 pins must be connected to
ground for proper operation.
BUSY (Pin 2):
Conversion in Progress Indicator. This pin
is HIGH while the conversion is in progress and goes LOW
indicating the conversion is complete and data is ready. It
remains LOW during the sleep and data output states. At
the conclusion of the data output state, it goes HIGH
indicating a new conversion has begun.
EXT (Pin 3):
Internal/External SCK Selection Pin. This pin
is used to select internal or external SCK for outputting/
inputting data. If EXT is tied low, the device is in the
external SCK mode and data is shifted out of the device
under the control of a user applied serial clock. If EXT is
tied high, the internal serial clock mode is selected. The
device generates its own SCK signal and outputs this on
the SCK pin. A framing signal BUSY (Pin 2) goes low
indicating data is being output.
COM (Pin 7):
The common negative input (IN
–
) for all
single ended multiplexer configurations. The voltage on
CH0-CH15 and COM pins can have any value between

Note 7:
The converter uses the internal oscillator.
Note 8:
The converter is in external SCK mode of operation such that the
SCK pin is used as a digital input. The frequency of the clock signal driving
SCK during the data output is f
ESCK
and is expressed in Hz.
Note 9:
The converter is in internal SCK mode of operation such that the
SCK pin is used as a digital output. In this mode of operation, the SCK pin
has a total equivalent load capacitance of C
LOAD
= 20pF.
Note 10:
The external oscillator is connected to the F
O
pin. The external
oscillator frequency, f
EOSC
, is expressed in Hz.
Note 11:
The converter uses the internal oscillator. F
O
= 0V.
Note 12:
Guaranteed by design and test correlation.
Note 13:
There is an internal reset that adds an additional 1µs (typ) to the
