FEATURES  
DESCRIPTIO  
The LTC®2424/LTC2428 are 4-/8-channel 2.7V to 5.5V  
micropower 20-bit A/D converters with an integrated  
oscillator, 8ppm INL and 1.2ppm RMS noise. They use  
delta-sigma technology and provide single cycle digital  
filter settling time (no latency delay) for multiplexed  
applications. The first conversion after the channel is  
changedisalwaysvalid.ThroughasinglepintheLTC2424/  
LTC2428 can be configured for better than 110dB rejec-  
tion at 50Hz or 60Hz ±2%, or can be driven by an external  
oscillator for a user defined rejection frequency in the  
range 1Hz to 800Hz. The internal oscillator requires no  
external frequency setting components.  
Pin Compatible 4-/8-Channel 20-Bit ADCs  
8ppm INL, No Missing Codes at 20 Bits  
4ppm Full-Scale Error and 0.5ppm Offset  
1.2ppm Noise  
Digital Filter Settles in a Single Cycle. Each  
Conversion is Accurate, Even After Changing  
Channels  
Fast Mode: 16-Bit Noise, 12-Bit TUE at 100sps  
Internal Oscillator—No External Components  
Required  
110dB Min, 50Hz/60Hz Notch Filter  
Reference Input Voltage: 0.1V to VCC  
Live Zero—Extended Input Range Accommodates  
The converters accept any external reference voltage from  
0.1VtoVCC. Withtheirextendedinputconversionrangeof  
–12.5% VREF to 112.5% VREF (VREF = FSSET – ZSSET) the  
LTC2424/LTC2428 smoothly resolve the offset and  
overrange problems of preceding sensors or signal con-  
ditioning circuits.  
12.5% Overrange and Underrange  
Single Supply 2.7V to 5.5V Operation  
Low Supply Current (200µA) and Auto Shutdown  
Can Be Interchanged with 24-Bit LTC2404/LTC2408  
if ZSSET Pin is Grounded  
U
APPLICATIO S

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the  
life of the device may be impaired.  
Note 2: All voltage values are with respect to GND.  
Note 10: The converter is in internal SCK mode of operation such that  
the SCK pin is used as digital output. In this mode of operation the  
SCK pin has a total equivalent load capacitance CLOAD = 20pF.  
Note 11: The external oscillator is connected to the FO pin. The external  
oscillator frequency, fEOSC, is expressed in kHz.  
Note 3: VCC = 2.7 to 5.5V unless otherwise specified, source input  
is 0. CSADC = CSMUX = CS. VREF = FSSET – ZSSET  
.
Note 12: The converter uses the internal oscillator.  
Note 4: Internal Conversion Clock source with the FO pin tied  
to GND or to VCC or to external conversion clock source with  
FO = 0V or FO = VCC  
.
f
EOSC = 153600Hz unless otherwise specified.  
Note 13: The output noise includes the contribution of the internal  
calibration operations.  
Note 5: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.  
Note 14: For reference voltage values VREF > 2.5V the extended input  
of 0.125 • VREF to 1.125 • VREF is limited by the absolute maximum  
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.  
Note 7: FO = 0V (internal oscillator) or fEOSC = 153600Hz ±2%  
(external oscillator).  
Note 8: FO = VCC (internal oscillator) or fEOSC = 128000Hz ±2%  
(external oscillator).  
Note 9: The converter is in external SCK mode of operation such that  
the SCK pin is used as digital input. The frequency of the clock signal  
driving SCK during the data output is fESCK and is expressed in kHz.

0.267V + 0.89 • VCC the input voltage range is 0.3V to 1.125 • VREF  
.
For 0.267V + 0.89 • VCC < VREF VCC the input voltage range is 0.3V  
to VCC + 0.3V.  
Note 15: VS is the voltage applied to a channel input. VD is the voltage  
applied to the MUX output.

PIN FUNCTIONS  
GND (Pins 1, 6, 16, 18, 22, 27, 28): Ground. Should be  
connected directly to a ground plane through a minimum  
length trace or it should be the single-point-ground in a  
single-point grounding system.  
CSMUX (Pin 20): MUX Chip Select Input. A logic high on  
this input allows the MUX to receive a channel address. A  
logic low enables the selected MUX channel and connects  
it to the MUXOUT pin for A/D conversion. For normal  
operation, drive this pin in parallel with CSADC.  
VCC (Pins 2, 8): Positive Supply Voltage. 2.7V VCC  
5.5V. Bypass to GND with a 10µF tantalum capacitor in  
parallel with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor as close to the part  
as possible.  
DIN (Pin 21): Digital Data Input. The multiplexer address  
is shifted into this input on the last four rising CLK edges  
before CSMUX goes low.  
FSSET (Pin 3): Full-Scale Set Input. This pin defines the  
full-scale input value. When VIN = FSSET, the ADC outputs  
full scale (FFFFFH). The total reference voltage (VREF) is  
CSADC (Pin 23): ADC Chip Select Input. A low on this pin  
enables the SDO digital output and following each conver-  
sion, the ADC automatically enters the Sleep mode and  
remains in this low power state as long as CSADC is high.  
A high on this pin also disables the SDO digital output. A  
low-to-high transition on CSADC during the Data Output  
state aborts the data transfer and starts a new conversion.  
Fornormaloperation,drivethispininparallelwithCSMUX.  
FSSET – ZSSET  
.
ADCIN (Pin 4): Analog Input. The input voltage range is  
0.125 • VREF to 1.125 • VREF. For VREF > 2.5V the input  
voltage range may be limited by the pin absolute maxi-  
mum rating of 0.3V to VCC + 0.3V.  
SDO (Pin 24): Three-State Digital Output. During the data  
output period this pin is used for serial data output. When  
the chip select CSADC is high (CSADC = VCC), the SDO pin  
is in a high impedance state. During the Conversion and  
Sleep periods, this pin can be used as a conversion status  
output. The conversion status can be observed by pulling  
CSADC low.  
ZSSET (Pin 5): Zero-Scale Set Input. This pin defines the  
zero-scaleinputvalue. WhenVIN =ZSSET, theADCoutputs

frequencies and conversion time. When the FO pin is  
connectedtoVCC (FO =VCC), theconverterusesitsinternal

When the FO pin is connected to GND (FO = OV), the  
converter uses its internal oscillator and the digital filter  
first null is located at 60Hz. When FO is driven by an  
external clock signal with a frequency fEOSC, the converter  
uses this signal as its clock and the digital filter first null is  
located at a frequency fEOSC/2560. The resulting output  
word rate is fEOSC/20480.

interface requires only four wires.  
TheLTC2424/LTC2428arelowpower,4-/8-channeldelta-  
sigma analog-to-digital converters with easy-to-use  
4-wire interfaces. Their operation is simple and made up  
of four states. The converter operation begins with the  
conversion, followed by a low power sleep state and  
concluded with the data output (see Figure 1). Channel  
selectionmaybeperformedwhilethedeviceisinthesleep  
state or at the conclusion of the data output state. The  
interface consists of serial data output (SDO), serial clock  
(CLK/SCK), chip select (CSADC/CSMUX) and data input  
Initially, the LTC2424 or LTC2428 performs a conversion.  
Once the conversion is complete, the device enters the  
sleep state. While in the sleep state, power consumption  
is reduced by an order of magnitude. The part remains in  
the sleep state as long as CSADC is logic HIGH. The  
conversion result is held indefinitely in a static shift  
register while the converter is in the sleep state.  
Channel selection for the next conversion cycle is per-  
formed while the device is in the sleep state or at the end

A major advantage delta-sigma converters offer over  
conventional type converters is an on-chip digital filter  
(commonly known as Sinc or Comb filter). For high  
resolution, low frequency applications, this filter is typi-  
cally designed to reject line frequencies of 50 or 60Hz plus  
their harmonics. In order to reject these frequencies in  
excess of 110dB, a highly accurate conversion clock is  
required. The LTC2424/LTC2428 incorporate an on-chip  
highly accurate oscillator. This eliminates the need for  
externalfrequencysettingcomponentssuchascrystalsor  
oscillators.Clockedbytheon-chiposcillator,theLTC2424/

of the data output state. A specific channel is selected by  
applyinga4-bitserialwordtotheDIN pinontherisingedge  
ofCLKwhileCSMUXisHIGH,seeFigure4andTable3.The  
channel is selected based on the last four bits clocked into  
the DIN pin before CSMUX goes low. If DIN is all 0’s, the  
previous channel remains selected.  
Ease of Use  
The LTC2424/LTC2428 data output has no latency, filter  
settlingorredundantdataassociatedwiththeconversion  
cycle.Thereisaone-to-onecorrespondencebetweenthe  
conversion and the output data. Therefore, multiplexing  
an analog input voltage is easy.  
In the example, Figure 4, the MUX channel is selected  
during the sleep state, just before the data output state  
begins. Once the channel selection is complete, the device  
remains in the sleep state as long as CSADC remains  
HIGH.  
The LTC2424/LTC2428 perform offset and full-scale cali-  
brations every conversion cycle. This calibration is trans-  
parent to the user and has no effect on the cyclic operation  
described above. The advantage of continuous calibration  
is extreme stability of offset and full-scale readings with  
respect to time, supply voltage change and temperature  
drift.  
Once CSADC is pulled low, the device begins outputting  
theconversionresult.Thereisnolatencyintheconversion  
result. Since there is no latency, the first conversion  
following a change in input channel is valid and corre-  
sponds to that channel. The data output corresponds to

Power-Up Sequence  
The LTC2424/LTC2428 automatically enter an internal  
reset state when the power supply voltage VCC drops  
below approximately 2.2V. When the VCC voltage rises  
above this critical threshold, the converter creates an  
internal power-on-reset (POR) signal with duration of  
approximately 0.5ms. The POR signal clears all internal  
registers within the ADC and initiates a conversion. At  
Through timing control of the CSADC and SCK pins, the  
LTC2424/LTC2428 offer two modes of operation: internal

Reference Voltage Range  
The LTC2424/LTC2428 can accept a reference voltage  
from 0V to VCC. The converter output noise is determined  
by the thermal noise of the front-end circuits, and as such,  
its value in microvolts is nearly constant with reference  
voltage. A decrease in reference voltage will not signifi-  
cantly improve the converter’s effective resolution. On the  
other hand, a reduced reference voltage will improve the  
overall converter INL performance. The recommended  
range for the LTC2424/LTC2428 voltage reference is  
100mV to VCC.

Bit 19 (fifth output bit) is the most significant bit (MSB).  
Bits 19-0 are the 20-bit conversion result MSB first.  
Bit 0 is the least significant bit (LSB).  
Typically, CSADC and CSMUX are tied together or CSADC  
is inverted and drives CSMUX. SCK and CLK are tied  
together and driven with a common clock signal. During  
channel selection, CSMUX is HIGH. Data is shifted into the  
DIN pin on the rising edge of CLK, see Figure 4. Table 3  
shows the bit combinations forchannel selection. Inorder  
to enable the multiplexer output, CSMUX must be pulled  
LOW. The multiplexer should be programmed after the  
previousconversioniscomplete.Inordertoguaranteethe

be delayed a minimum tCONV (approximately 133ms for a  
60Hz notch) after the data out is read.  
DataisshiftedoutoftheSDOpinundercontroloftheserial  
clock (SCK), see Figure 4. Whenever CSADC is HIGH, SDO  
remains high impedance and any SCK clock pulses are  
ignored by the internal data out shift register.  
In order to shift the conversion result out of the device,  
CSADC must first be driven LOW. EOC is seen at the SDO  
pinofthedeviceonceCSADCispulledLOW. EOCchanges  
real time from HIGH to LOW at the completion of a  
conversion. This signal may be used as an interrupt for an  
external microcontroller. Bit 23 (EOC) can be captured on  
the first rising edge of SCK. Bit 22 is shifted out of the  
deviceonthefirstfallingedgeofSCK. Thefinaldatabit(Bit  
0) is shifted out on the falling edge of the 23rd SCK and  
may be latched on the rising edge of the 24th SCK pulse.  
On the falling edge of the 24th SCK pulse, SDO goes HIGH  
While the multiplexer is being programmed, the ADC is in  
a low power sleep state. Once the MUX addressing is  
complete, the data from the preceding conversion can be  
read. A new conversion cycle is initiated following the data  
read cycle with the analog input tied to the newly selected  
channel.

When a fundamental rejection frequency different from  
50Hz or 60Hz is required or when the converter must be  
synchronized with an outside source, the LTC2424/

The converter automatically detects the presence of an  
external clock signal at the FO pin and turns off the internal  
oscillator. The frequency fEOSC of the external signal must  
be at least 2560Hz (1Hz notch frequency) to be detected.  
The external clock signal duty cycle is not significant as

The LTC2424/LTC2428 typically operate with an internal  
oscillator of 153.6kHz. This corresponds to a notch fre-  
quency of 60Hz and an output rate of 7.5 samples/second.  
The internal oscillator is enabled if the FO pin is logic LOW  
(logic HIGH for a 50Hz notch). It is possible to drive the FO  
pin with an external oscillator for higher data output rates.  
As shown in Figure 6, an external clock of 2.048MHz  
applied to the FO pin results in a notch frequency of 800Hz  
with a data output rate of 100 samples/second.  
ODR = FO/20480

SERIAL INTERFACE  
The LTC2424/LTC2428 transmit the conversion results,  
program the channel selection, and receive the start of  
conversion command through a synchronous 4-wire in-  
terface(SCK=CLK,CSADC=CSMUX).Duringtheconver-  
sion and sleep states, this interface can be used to assess  
the converter status. While in the sleep state this interface  
may be used to program an input channel. During the data  
output state, it is used to read the conversion result.

the FO pin may be driven LOW enabling 60Hz rejection to  
110dB and the highest possible DC accuracy. The no

External SCK mode of operation, the SCK pin is used as

power-up and then reselected every time a HIGH-to-LOW  
transition is detected at the CSADC pin. If SCK is HIGH or

conversion and sleep states.  
When CSADC (Pin 23) is HIGH, the SDO driver is switched  
to a high impedance state. This allows sharing the serial  
interface with other devices. If CSADC is LOW during the  
convert or sleep state, SDO will output EOC. If CSADC is  
LOW during the conversion phase, the EOC bit appears  
HIGH on the SDO pin. Once the conversion is complete,  
EOC goes LOW. The device remains in the sleep state until  
the first rising edge of SCK occurs while CSADC = 0.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
In addition, the CSADC signal can be used to trigger a new  
conversion cycle before the entire serial data transfer has  
been completed. The LTC2424/LTC2428 will abort any  
serial data transfer in progress and start a new conversion  
cycle anytime a LOW-to-HIGH transition is detected at the  
CSADC pin after the converter has entered the data output  
state (i.e., after the first rising edge of SCK occurs with  
CSADC = 0).  
External Serial Clock (SPI/MICROWIRE Compatible)  
This timing mode uses an external serial clock (SCK) to  
shift out the conversion result, see Figure 13. This same  
external clock signal drives the CLK pin in order to pro-  
gram the multiplexer. A single CS signal drives both the  
multiplexer CSMUX and converter CSADC inputs. This  
common signal is used to monitor and control the state of  
the conversion as well as enable the channel selection.  
Multiplexer Chip Select (CSMUX)  
The serial clock mode is selected on the falling edge of  
CSADC. To select the external serial clock mode, the serial  
clock pin (SCK) must be LOW during each CSADC falling  
edge.  
For 4-wire operation, this pin is tied directly to CSADC or  
the output of an inverter tied to CSADC. CSMUX (Pin 20)  
is driven HIGH during selection of a multiplexer channel.  
On the falling edge of CSMUX, the selected channel is  
enabled and drives MUXOUT.  
The serial data output pin (SDO) is HI-Z as long as CSADC  
is HIGH. At any time during the conversion cycle, CSADC  
may be pulled LOW in order to monitor the state of the  
converter. While CSADC is LOW, EOC is output to the SDO  
pin. EOC = 1 while a conversion is in progress and EOC =  
0 if the device is in the sleep state. Independent of CSADC,  
the device automatically enters the low power sleep state  
once the conversion is complete.  
Data Input (DIN)  
The data input to the multiplexer, DIN (Pin 21), is used to  
program the multiplexer. The input channel is selected by  
serially shifting a 4-bit input word into the DIN pin under  
the control of the multiplexer clock, CLK. Data is shifted  
into the multiplexer on the rising edge of CLK. Table 3  
shows the logic table for channel selection. In order to  
select or change a previously programmed channel, an  
enable bit (DIN = 1) must proceed the 3-bit channel select  
serialdata. TheusermaysetDIN =0tocontinuallyconvert  
on the previously selected channel.  
While the device is in the sleep state, prior to entering the  
data output state, the user may program the multiplexer.  
As shown in Figure 13, the multiplexer channel is selected  
by serial shifting a 4-bit word into the DIN pin on the rising  
edge of CLK (CLK is tied to SCK). The first bit is an enable  
bit that must be HIGH in order to program a channel. The  
next three bits determine which channel is selected, see  
Table 3. On the falling edge of CSMUX, the new channel is  
selectedandwillbevalidforthefirstconversionperformed  
followingthedataoutputstate.Clocksignalsappliedtothe  
CLK pin while CSMUX is LOW (during the data output  
state) will have no effect on the channel selection. Further-  
more, if DIN is held LOW or CLK is held LOW during the  
sleep state, the channel selection is unchanged.  
SERIAL INTERFACE TIMING MODES  
The LTC2424/LTC2428’s 4-wire interface is SPI and  
MICROWIRE compatible. This interface offers two modes  
of operation. These include an internal or external serial  
clock. The following sections describe both of these serial  
interface timing modes in detail. For both cases the  
converter can use the internal oscillator (FO = LOW or FO  
= HIGH) or an external oscillator connected to the FO pin.  
Refer to Table 5 for a summary.  
When the device is in the sleep state (EOC = 0), its  
conversion result is held in an internal static shift register.

Figure 13. External Serial Clock Timing Diagram  
The device remains in the sleep state until the first rising  
edge of SCK is seen while CSADC is LOW. Data is shifted  
out the SDO pin on each falling edge of SCK. This enables  
external circuitry to latch the output on the rising edge of  
SCK. EOC can be latched on the first rising edge of SCK  
and the last bit of the conversion result can be latched on  
the 24th rising edge of SCK. On the 24th falling edge of  
SCK, thedevicebeginsanewconversion. SDOgoesHIGH  
(EOC = 1) indicating a conversion is in progress.  
While the device is performing the internal calibration, it is  
sensitive to ground current disturbances. Error currents  
flowing in the ground pin may lead to offset errors. If the  
SCK pin is toggling during the calibration, these ground  
disturbances will occur. The solution is to either drive the  
multiplexer clock input (CLK) separately from the ADC  
clock input (SCK), or program the multiplexer in the first  
1ms following the data output cycle. The remaining 65ms  
may be used to allow the input signal to settle.  
At the conclusion of the data cycle, CSADC may remain  
LOW and EOC monitored as an end-of-conversion inter-  
rupt. Alternatively, CSADC may be driven HIGH setting  
SDO to HI-Z. As described above, CSADC may be pulled  
LOWatanytimeinordertomonitortheconversionstatus.  
For each of these operations, CSMUX may be tied to  
CSADC without affecting the selected channel.  
Typically, CSADC remains LOW during the data output  
state. However, the data output state may be aborted by  
pulling CSADC HIGH anytime between the first rising edge  
and the 24th falling edge of SCK, see Figure 15. On the  
rising edge of CSADC, the device aborts the data output  
state and immediately initiates a new conversion. This is  
useful for systems not requiring all 24 bits of output data,  
aborting an invalid conversion cycle or synchronizing the  
start of a conversion.  
At the conclusion of the data output cycle, the converter  
enters a user transparent calibration cycle prior to actually  
performing a conversion on the selected input channel.  
Thisenablesa66ms(for60Hznotchfrequency)lookahead  
time for the multiplexer input. Following the data output  
cycle, the multiplexer input channel may be selected any  
time in this 66ms window by pulling CSADC HIGH and  
serial shifting data into the DIN pin, see Figure 14.  
Internal Serial Clock  
This timing mode uses an internal serial clock to shift out  
the conversion result and program the multiplexer, see  
Figure 16. A CS signal directly drives the CSADC input,  
while the inverse of CS drives the CSMUX input. The CS

While operating in the internal serial clock mode, the SCK  
output of the ADC may be used as the multiplexer clock  
(CLK). DIN is latched into the multiplexer on the rising

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
Typically, CSADC remains LOW during the data output  
state. However, the data output state may be aborted by  
pulling CSADC HIGH anytime between the first and 24th  
rising edge of SCK, see Figure 17. On the rising edge of  
CSADC, the device aborts the data output state and  
immediately initiates a new conversion. This is useful for  
systems not requiring all 24 bits of output data, aborting  
an invalid conversion cycle, or synchronizing the start of  
a conversion. If CSADC is pulled HIGH while the con-  
verter is driving SCK LOW, the internal pull-up is not  
available to restore SCK to a logic HIGH state. This will  
cause the device to exit the internal serial clock mode on  
the next falling edge of CSADC. This can be avoided by  
adding an external 10k pull-up resistor to the SCK pin or  
by never pulling CSADC HIGH when SCK is LOW.  
mode.However,certainapplicationsmayrequireanexter-  
nal driver on SCK. If this driver goes HI-Z after outputting  
a LOW signal, the LTC2424/LTC2428’s internal pull-up  
remains disabled. Hence, SCK remains LOW. On the next  
falling edge of CSADC, the device is switched to the  
external SCK timing mode. By adding an external 10k pull-  
up resistor to SCK, this pin goes HIGH once the external  
driver goes HI-Z. On the next CSADC falling edge, the  
device will remain in the internal SCK timing mode.  
Asimilarsituationmayoccurduringthesleepstatewhen  
CSADC is pulsed HIGH-LOW-HIGH in order to test the  
conversion status. If the device is in the sleep state  
(EOC = 0), SCK will go LOW. Once CSADC goes HIGH  
(within the time period defined above as tEOCtest), the  
internal pull-up is activated. For a heavy capacitive load  
on the SCK pin, the internal pull-up may not be adequate  
to return SCK to a HIGH level before CSADC goes LOW  
again. This is not a concern under normal conditions  
Whenever SCK is LOW, the LTC2424/LTC2428’s internal  
pull-up at pin SCK is disabled. Normally, SCK is not  
externally driven if the device is in the internal SCK timing

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
where CSADC remains LOW after detecting EOC = 0. This  
situation is easily avoided by adding an external 10k pull-  
up resistor to the SCK pin.  
For reference, on a regular FR-4 board, signal propaga-  
tion velocity is approximately 183ps/inch for internal  
traces and 170ps/inch for surface traces. Thus, a driver  
generating a control signal with a minimum transition  
time of 1ns must be connected to the converter pin  
through a trace shorter than 2.5 inches. This problem  
becomes particularly difficult when shared control lines  
areusedandmultiplereflectionsmayoccur.Thesolution  
is to carefully terminate all transmission lines close to  
their characteristic impedance.  
DIGITAL SIGNAL LEVELS  
The LTC2424/LTC2428’s digital interface is easy to use.  
Its digital inputs (FO, CSADC, CSMUX, CLK, DIN and SCK  
in External SCK mode of operation) accept standard TTL/  
CMOS logic levels and can tolerate edge rates as slow as  
100µs.However,someconsiderationsarerequiredtotake  
advantageofexceptionalaccuracyandlowsupplycurrent.  
Parallel termination near the LTC2424/LTC2428 input  
pins will eliminate this problem but will increase the driver  
powerdissipation.Aseriesresistorbetween27and56Ω  
placed near the driver or near the LTC2424/LTC2428 pin  
will also eliminate this problem without additional power  
dissipation. The actual resistor value depends upon the  
trace impedance and connection topology.  
The digital output signals (SDO and SCK in Internal SCK  
mode of operation) are less of a concern because they are  
not generally active during the conversion state.  
InordertopreservetheaccuracyoftheLTC2424/LTC2428,  
it is very important to minimize the ground path imped-  
ance which may appear in series with the input and/or  
reference signal and to reduce the current which may flow  
through this path. The ZSSET pin (Pin 6) should be con-  
nected directly to the signal ground.  
Driving the Input and Reference  
The analog input and reference of the typical delta-sigma  
analog-to-digital converter are applied to a switched ca-  
pacitornetwork.Thisnetworkconsistsofcapacitorsswitch-  
ing between the analog input (ADCIN), ZSSET (Pin 6) and  
the reference (FSSET). The result is small current spikes  
seenatbothADCINandVREF. Asimplifiedinputequivalent  
circuit is shown in Figure 18.  
The power supply current during the conversion state  
should be kept to a minimum. This is achieved by restrict-  
ing the number of digital signal transitions occurring  
during this period.  
While a digital input signal is in the 0.5V to (VCC – 0.5V)  
range, the CMOS input receiver draws additional current  
from the power supply. It should be noted that, when any  
one of the digital input signals (FO, CSADC, CSMUX, DIN,  
CLK and SCK in External SCK mode of operation) is within  
this range, the LTC2424/LTC2428 power supply current  
mayincreaseevenifthesignalinquestionisatavalidlogic  
level. For micropower operation and in order to minimize  
the potential errors due to additional ground pin current,  
it is recommended to drive all digital input signals to full  
CMOS levels [VIL < 0.4V and VOH > (VCC – 0.4V)].  
The key to understanding the effects of this dynamic input  
current is based on a simple first order RC time constant  
model. Using the internal oscillator, the internal switched  
capacitor network of the LTC2424/LTC2428 is clocked at  
153,600Hz corresponding to a 6.5µs sampling period.  
Fourteentimeconstantsarerequiredeachtimeacapacitor  
is switched in order to achieve 1ppm settling accuracy.  
Therefore, the equivalent time constant at VIN and VREF  
should be less than 6.5µs/14 = 460ns in order to achieve  
1ppm accuracy.  
Severe ground pin current disturbances can also occur  
due to the undershoot of fast digital input signals. Under-  
shoot and overshoot can occur because of the imped-  
ance mismatch at the converter pin when the transition  
time of an external control signal is less than twice the  
propagation delay from the driver to LTC2424/LTC2428.  
Input Current (VIN)  
If complete settling occurs on the input, conversion re-  
sultswillbeunaffectedbythedynamicinputcurrent. Ifthe  
settling is incomplete, it does not degrade the linearity  
performance of the device. It simply results in an offset/

input dynamic current, two separate cases are assumed:  
large capacitance at VIN (CIN > 0.01µF) and small capaci-  
tance at VIN (CIN < 0.01µF).  
One of the advantages delta-sigma ADCs offer over con-  
ventional ADCs is on-chip digital filtering. Combined with  
a large oversampling ratio, the LTC2424/LTC2428 signifi-  
cantly simplify antialiasing filter requirements.

The digital filter provides very high rejection except at  
integer multiples of the modulator sampling frequency

256 • FO, where FO is the notch frequency (typically 50Hz  
or 60Hz). The bandwidth of signals not rejected by the

to sense each node. This approach allows a single excita-  
tion current passed through the entire ladder, reducing  
total supply current consumption. In addition, this ap-  
proach requires only one high precision resistor, thereby  
reducingcost. Agroupofuptoseventemperaturescanbe  
measured as a group by a single LTC2428 in a loop-pow-  
ered remote acquisition unit. In the example shown in  
Figure 22, the excitation current is 240µA at 0°C. The  
LTC2428 requires 300µA, leaving nearly 3.5mA for the  
remainder of the remote transmitter.  
As a result of the oversampling ratio (256) and the digital  
filter, minimal (if any) antialias filtering is required in front  
of the LTC2424/LTC2428. If passive RC components are  
placed in front of the LTC2424/LTC2428, the input dy-  
namic current should be considered. In cases where large  
effective RC time constants are used, an external buffer  
amplifier may be required to minimize the effects of input  
dynamic current.  
The modulator contained within the LTC2424/LTC2428  
can handle large-signal level perturbations without satu-  
rating. Signal levels up to 40% of VREF do not saturate the  
analog modulator. These signals are limited by the input  
ESDprotectionto300mVbelowgroundand300mVabove

The resistance of any of the RTDs (PT1 to PT7) is deter-  
mined from the voltage across it, as compared to the  
voltage drop across the reference resistor (R1). This is a  
ratiometricimplementationwherethevoltagedropacross  
R1 is given by VREF – VCH1. Channel 7 is used to measure  
the voltage on a representative length of wire. If the same  
type and length of wire is used for all connections, then  
errors associated with the voltage drops across all wiring  
can be removed in software. The contribution of wiring  
drop can be scaled if wire lengths are not equal.

Gain can be added to this circuit as the total voltage drop  
across all the RTDs is small compared to ADC full-scale

by both amplifier noise contribution, as well as the maxi-  
mum voltage developed at CH0 when all sensors are at the

its low input current and offset voltage, as well as its  
ability to drive the input of a ∆Σ ADC.  
Insert Gain or Buffering After the Multiplexer  
SeparateMUXOUTandADCINterminalspermitinsertion  
of a gain stage between the MUX and the ADC. If passive  
filtering is used at the input to the ADC, a buffer amplifier  
is strongly recommended to avoid errors resulting from  
thedynamicADCinputcurrent. Ifantialiasingisrequired,  
it should be placed at the input to the MUX. If bandwidth  
limitingisrequiredtoimprovenoiseperformance, afilter  
with a –3dB point at 1500Hz will reduce the effective total  
noisebandwidthofthesystemto15Hz.Aroll-offat1500Hz  
eliminates all higher order images of the base bandwidth  
of 6Hz. In the example shown, the optional bandwidth-  
limitingfilterhasa–3dBpointat1450Hz. Thisfiltercanbe  
inserted after the multiplexer provided that higher source  
impedance prior to the multiplexer does not reduce the  
3dB frequency, extending settling time, and resulting in  
charge sharing between samples. The settling time of this  
filter to 20+ bits of accuracy is less than 2ms. In the pres-  
ence of external wideband noise, this filter reduces the  
apparent noise by a factor of 5. Note that the noise band-  
width for noise developed in the amplifier is 150Hz. In the  
example shown, the gain of the amplifier is set to 40, the  
pointatwhichamplifiernoisegaindominatestheLTC2428  
noise. Input voltage range as shown is then 0V to 125mV  
DC. The recommended capacitor at C2 for a gain of 40  
would be 560pF.  
Adding gain requires that one of the resistors (PT1 to PT7)  
be a precision resistor in order to eliminate the error asso-  
ciated with the gain setting resistors R2 and R3. Note, that  
if a precision (100to 400) resistor is used in place of  
one of the RTDs (PT7 recommended), R1 does not need  
to be a high precision resistor. Although the substitution  
of a precision reference resistor for an RTD to determine  
gain may suggest that R2 and R3 (and R1) need not be  
precise, temperature fluctuations due to airflow may ap-  
pear as noise that cannot be removed in firmware. Conse-  
quently, these resistors should be low temperature coef-  
ficient devices. The use of higher resistance RTDs is not  
recommended in this topology, although the inclusion of  
one 1000RTD at the top on the ladder will have minimal  
impact on the lower elements. The same caveat applies to  
fast changing temperatures. Any fast changing sensors  
should be at the top of the ladder.  
The LTC2428’s Uncommitted Multiplexer Finds Use in  
a Programmable Gain Scheme  
If the multiplexer in the LTC2428 is not committed to  
channel selection, it can be used to select various signal-  
processing options such as different gains, filters or at-  
tenuator characteristics. In Figure 23, the multiplexer is  
shown selecting different taps on an R/2R ladder in the  
feedback loop of an amplifier. This example allows selec-  
tion of gain from 1 to 128 in binary steps. Other feedback  
networks could be used to provide gains tailored for  
specific purposes. (For example, 1x, 1.1x, 1.41x, 2x,  
2.028x,5x,10x,40x,etc.)Alternatively,differentbandpass  
characteristicsorsignalinversion/noninversioncouldbe  
selected. The R/2R ladder can be purchased as a network  
to ensure tight temperature tracking. Alternatively, resis-  
tors in a ladder or as separate dividers can be assembled  
from discrete resistors. In the configuration shown, the  
channel resistance of the multiplexer does not contribute  
much to the error budget, as only input op amp current

Two channels (CH3 and CH4) of the LTC2428 are used to  
accommodate a 3-wire 100, Pt RTD in a unique circuit  
that allows true RMS/RF signal power measurement from  
audio to gigahertz (GHz) frequencies. The unique feature  
ofthiscircuitisthatthesignalpowerdissipatedinthe50Ω

RTD. Two readings are required to compensate for the  
RTD’s lead-wire resistance. The reading on CH4 is multi-  
plied by 2 and subtracted from the reading on CH3 to  
determine the exact value of the RTD.  
With the resistor network connected to CH0, the LTC2428  
isabletomeasureDCvoltagesfrom1mVto1kVinasingle

should be a 1W resistor rated for high voltage operation.  
Alternatively, the 990k resistor can be replaced with a  
seriesconnectionofseverallowercost,lowerpowermetal  
film resistors.  
The circuit connected to CH1 shows an LT1793 FET input  
operational amplifier used as an electrometer for high  
impedance, low frequency applications such as measur-  
ing pH. The circuit has been configured for a gain of 21;  
thus, the input signal range is –15mV VIN 250mV. An  
amplifier circuit is necessary in these applications be-  
cause high output impedance sensors cannot drive  
switched-capacitor ADCs directly. The LT1793 was cho-  
sen for its low input bias current (10pA, max) and low  
noise (8nV/Hz) performance. As shown, the use of a  
driven guard (and TeflonTM standoffs) is recommended in  
high impedance sensor applications; otherwise, PC board  
surface leakage current effects can degrade results.  
While the LTC2428 is capable of measuring signals over a  
range of five decades, the implementation (mechanical,  
electrical and thermal) of this technique ultimately deter-  
mines the performance of the circuit. The thermal resis-  
tanceoftheassembly(the50/RTDmasstoitsenclosure)  
will determine the sensitivity of the circuit. The dynamic  
range of the circuit will be determined by the maximum  
temperature the assembly is rated to withstand, approxi-  
mately 850°C. Details of the implementation are quite  
involved and are beyond the scope of this document.  
Please contact LTC directly for a more comprehensive  
treatment of this implementation.  
In the circuit connected to the LTC2428’s CH5 input, a  
thermistor is configured in a half-bridge arrangement that  
could be used to measure the case temperature of the  
RTD-basedthermalpowermeasurementschemedescribed  
previously. In general, thermistors yield very good resolu-  
tion over a limited temperature range. For the half-bridge  
arrangement shown, the LTC2428 can measure tempera-  
ture changes over nearly 5 orders of magnitude.  
The circuit connected to CH2 illustrates a precision half-  
wave rectifier that uses the LTC2428’s internal ∆Σ ADC as  
an integrator. This circuit can be used to measure 60Hz,  
120Hz or from 400Hz to 1kHz with good results. The  
LTC2428’s internal sinc4 filter effectively eliminates any

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
These infrared thermocouples are self-contained: 1) they  
do not require external cold junction compensation; 2)  
they cannot use conventional open thermocouple detec-  
tion schemes; and 3) their output impedances are high,  
approximately 3k. Alternatively, conventional thermo-

The photodiode chosen (Hammatsu S1336-5BK) pro-  
duces an output of 500mA per watt of optical illumination.  
The output of the photodiode is dependent on two factors:  
active detector area (2.4mm • 2.4mm) and illumination  
intensity. With the 5k resistor, optical intensities up to  
368W/m2 at 960nM (direct sunlight is approximately  
1000W/m2) can be measured by the LTC2428. With a  
resolution of 1nA, the optical dynamic range covers 5  
orders of magnitude.  
The application circuits shown connected to the LTC2428  
demonstrate the mix-and-match capabilities of this multi-  
plexed-input, high resolution ∆Σ ADC. Very low level  
signals and high level signals can be accommodated with  
a minimum of additional circuitry.
