The MCP3422/3/4 devices can be used for various pre-
cision analog-to-digital converter applications. These
devices operate with very simple connections to the
application circuit. The following sections discuss the
examples of the device connections and applications.
6.1
6.1.1
For an accurate measurement, the application circuit
needs a clean supply voltage and must block any noise
signal to the MCP3422/3/4 devices.
an example of using two bypass capacitors (a 10 µF
tantalum capacitor and a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor) on
the V
helpful to filter out any high frequency noises on the
V
extra currents when the device needs from the supply.
These capacitors should be placed as close to the V
pin as possible (within one inch). If the application
circuit has separate digital and analog power supplies,
the V
reside on the analog plane.
6.1.2
The SCL and SDA pins of the MCP3422/3/4 are
open-drain configurations. These pins require a pull-up
resistor as shown in
pull-up resistors depends on the operating speed (stan-
dard, fast, and high speed) and loading capacitance of
the I
consumes less power, but increases the signal transi-
tion time (higher RC time constant) on the bus. There-
fore, it can limit the bus operating speed. The lower
value of resistor, on the other hand, consumes higher
power, but allows higher operating speed. If the bus
line has higher capacitance due to long bus line or high
number of devices connected to the bus, a smaller
pull-up resistor is needed to compensate the long RC
time constant. The pull-up resistor is typically chosen
between 5 kΩ and 10 kΩ ranges for standard and fast
modes, and less than 1 kΩ for high speed mode
depending on the presence of bus loading capacitance.

The user can tie the Adr0 and Adr1 pins to V
or left floating. See more details in Section 5.3.2

nections. The I
as the number of device connected to the I
increases. The bus loading capacitance affects on the
bus operating speed. For example, the highest bus
operating speed for the 400 pF bus capacitance is
1.7 MHz, and 3.4 MHz for 100 pF. Therefore, the user
needs to consider the relationship between the maxi-
mum operation speed versus. the number of I
devices that are connected to the I
