ADC12130/ADC12132/ADC12138
Self-Calibrating 12-Bit Plus Sign Serial I/O A/D
Converters with MUX and Sample/Hold
General Description
NOTE: All versions of the ADC12132 are obsolete and
shown here for reference only.
Features
n Serial I/O (MICROWIRE, SPI and QSPI Compatible)
n Power down mode
n Programmable acquisition time
The ADC12130, ADC12132 and ADC12138 are 12-bit plus
sign successive approximation A/D converters with serial I/O
and configurable input multiplexer. The ADC12132 and
ADC12138 have a 2 and an 8 channel multiplexer, respec-
tively. The differential multiplexer outputs and A/D inputs are
available on the MUXOUT1, MUXOUT2, A/DIN1 and A/DIN2
pins. The ADC12130 has a two channel multiplexer with the
multiplexer outputs and A/D inputs internally connected. The
ADC12130 family is tested and specified with a 5 MHz clock.
On request, these A/Ds go through a self calibration process
that adjusts linearity, zero and full-scale errors to typically
less than 1 LSB each.
n Variable digital output word length and format
n No zero or full scale adjustment required
n 0V to 5V analog input range with single 5V power
supply

The analog inputs can be configured to operate in various
combinations of single-ended, differential, or pseudo-
differential modes. A fully differential unipolar analog input
range (0V to +5V) can be accommodated with a single +5V
supply. In the differential modes, valid outputs are obtained
even when the negative inputs are greater than the positive
because of the 12-bit plus sign output data format.
