24 Bits, No Missing Codes
The ADS1258 is
a
16-channel (multiplexed),
low-noise, 24-bit, delta-sigma (∆Σ) analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) that provides single-cycle settled
data at channel scan rates from 1.8k to 23.7k
Fixed-Channel or Automatic Channel Scan
Fixed-Channel Data Rate: 125kSPS
Auto-Scan Data Rate: 23.7kSPS
Single-Conversion Settled Data
samples per second (SPS).
A
flexible input
multiplexer accepts combinations of eight differential
or 16 single-ended inputs with a full-scale differential
range of 5V or true bipolar range of ±2.5V when
operating with a 5V reference. The fourth-order
delta-sigma modulator is followed by a fifth-order sinc
digital filter optimized for low-noise performance.
16 Single-Ended or 8 Differential Inputs
Unipolar (+5V) or Bipolar (±2.5V) Operation
Low Noise: 2.8µVRMS at 1.8kSPS
0.0003% Integral Nonlinearity
DC Stability (typical):
0.02µV/°C Offset Drift, 0.4ppm/°C Gain Drift
The differential output of the multiplexer is accessible
to allow signal conditioning prior to the input of the
ADC. Internal system monitor registers provide
supply voltage, temperature, reference voltage, gain,
and offset data.

Conditioning
An onboard PLL generates the system clock from a
32.768kHz crystal, or can be overridden by an
external clock source. A buffered system clock output
(15.7MHz) is provided to drive a microcontroller or
additional converters.

42mW Power Dissipation
Serial digital communication is handled via an
SPI™-compatible interface. A simple command word
structure controls channel configuration, data rates,
digital I/O, monitor functions, etc.
