Description
The MCP3424 is a low noise, high accuracy
delta-sigma analog-to-digital (ΔΣ A/D) converter with 4
differential input channels and up to 18 bits of resolu-
tion. The on-board 2.048V reference voltage enables
an input range of
range = 4.096V/PGA). The MCP3424 is a family
member of the MCP342X series from Microchip Tech-
nology Inc.
The device can output analog-to-digital conversion
results at rates of 3.75, 15, 60, or 240 samples per
second depending on the user controllable configura-
tion bit settings using the two-wire I
During each conversion, the device calibrates offset
and gain errors automatically. This provides accurate
conversion results from conversion to conversion over
variations in temperature and power supply fluctuation.
The user can select the PGA gain of x1, x2, x4, or x8
before the analog-to-digital conversion takes place.
This allows the MCP3424 device to convert a very
weak input signal with high resolution.
The MCP3424 device has two conversion modes: (a)
One-Shot Conversion mode and (b) Continuous Con-
version mode. In One-Shot conversion mode, the
device performs a single conversion and enters a low
current standby mode automatically until it receives
another conversion command. This reduces current
consumption greatly during idle periods. In continuous
conversion
continuously at the set conversion speed. The device
updates its output buffer with the most recent conver-
sion data.
The device has two external I
(Adr0 and Adr1). The user can configure the device to
one of eight available addresses by connecting these
two address selection pins to V
The MCP3424 device operates from a single 2.7V to
5.5V power supply and has a two-wire I
serial interface for a standard (100 kHz), fast
(400 kHz), or high-speed (3.4 MHz) mode.
The MCP3424 device is available in 14-pin SOIC and
TSSOP packages.
