ADS1254
SBAS213 – JUNE 2001
24-Bit, 20kHz, Low Power
ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTER
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The ADS1254 is a precision, wide dynamic range, delta-
sigma, Analog-to-Digital (A/D) converter with 24-bit reso-
lution. The delta-sigma architecture is used for wide dy-
namic range and to ensure 24 bits of no missing codes
performance. An effective resolution of 19 bits (1.8ppm of
rms noise) is achieved for conversion rates up to 20kHz.
● 24 BITS—NO MISSING CODES
● 19 BITS EFFECTIVE RESOLUTION UP TO
20kHz DATA RATE
● LOW NOISE: 1.8ppm
● FOUR DIFFERENTIAL INPUTS
● INL: 15ppm (max)
The ADS1254 is designed for high-resolution measurement
applications in cardiac diagnostics, smart transmitters, in-
dustrial process control, weight scales, chromatography, and
portable instrumentation. The converter includes a flexible,
two-wire synchronous serial interface for low-cost isolation.
● EXTERNAL REFERENCE (0.5V to 5V)
● POWER-DOWN MODE
● SYNC MODE
● LOW POWER: 4mW at 20kHz
The ADS1254 is a multi-channel converter and is offered in
an SSOP-20 package.
● SEPARATE DIGITAL INTERFACE SUPPLY 1.8V
to 3.6V
APPLICATIONS
● CARDIAC DIAGNOSTICS
● DIRECT THERMOCOUPLE INTERFACES
● BLOOD ANALYSIS
● INFRARED PYROMETERS
● LIQUID/GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY
● PRECISION PROCESS CONTROL
