moreover, they do not disturb the cyclic operation described above. these modes of operation are described in detail in the serial interface timing modes section. conversion clock a major advantage the delta-sigma converter offers over conventional type converters is an on-chip digital filter (commonly implemented as a sinc or comb filter). for high resolution, low frequency applications, this filter is typically designed to reject line frequencies of 50hz or 60hz plus their harmonics. the filter rejection perfor- mance is directly related to the accuracy of the converter system clock. the ltc2430/ltc2431 incorporate a highly accurate on-chip oscillator. this eliminates the need for external frequency setting components such as crystals or oscillators. clocked by the on-chip oscillator, the ltc2430/ ltc2431 achieve a minimum of 110db rejection at the line frequency (50hz or 60hz 2%). ease of use the ltc2430/ltc2431 data output has no latency, filter settling delay or redundant data associated with the conversion cycle. there is a one-to-one correspondence between the conversion and the output data. therefore, multiplexing multiple analog inputs is easy. the ltc2430/ltc2431 perform offset and full-scale cali- brations in every conversion cycle. this calibration is trans- parent to the user and has no effect on the cyclic operation described above. the advantage of continuous calibration is extreme stability of offset and full-scale readings with respect to time, supply voltage change and temperature drift. figure 2. ltc2430/ltc2431 state transition diagram convert sleep data output 2431 f02 true false cs = low and sck applicatio s i for atio wu uu ltc2430/ltc2431 12 24301f power-up sequence the ltc2430/ltc2431 automatically enter an internal reset state when the power supply voltage v cc drops below approximately 2v. this feature guarantees the integrity of the conversion result and of the serial interface mode selection. (see the 2-wire i/o sections in the serial interface timing modes section.) when the v cc voltage rises above this critical threshold, the ltc2430 or ltc2431 creates an internal power-on- reset (por) signal with a duration of approximately 1ms. the por signal clears all internal registers. following the por signal, the converter starts a normal conversion cycle and follows the succession of states described above. the first conversion result following por is accu- rate within the specifications of the device if the power supply voltage is restored within the operating range (2.7v to 5.5v) before the end of the por time interval. reference voltage range the ltc2430/ltc2431 accept a differential external refer- ence voltage. the absolute/common mode voltage speci- fication for the ref + and ref C pins covers the entire range from gnd to v cc . for correct converter operation, the ref + pin must always be more positive than the ref C pin. the ltc2430/ltc2431 can accept a differential reference voltage from 0.1v to v cc . the converter (ltc2430 or ltc2431) output noise is determined by the thermal noise of the front-end circuits, and, as such, its value in micro- volts is nearly constant with reference voltage. a decrease in reference voltage will not significantly improve the converters effective resolution. on the other hand, a re- duced reference voltage will improve the converters over- all inl performance. a reduced reference voltage will also improve the converter performance when operated with an external conversion clock (external f o signal) at sub- stantially higher output data rates. input voltage range the analog input is truly differential with an absolute/com- mon mode range for the in + and in C input pins extending from gnd C 0.3v to v cc + 0.3v. outside these limits, the esd protection devices begin to turn on and the errors due to input leakage current increase rapidly. within these lim- its, the ltc2430 or ltc2431 converts the bipolar differen- tial input signal, v in = in + C in C , from C fs = C 0.5 ? v ref to +fs = 0.5 ? v ref where v ref = ref + C ref C . outside this range the converter indicates the overrange or the underrange condition using distinct output codes. input signals applied to in + and in C pins may extend by 300mv below ground and above v cc . in order to limit any fault current, resistors of up to 5k may be added in series with the in + and in C pins without affecting the performance of the device. in the physical layout, it is important to main- tain the parasitic capacitance of the connection between these series resistors and the corresponding pins as low as possible; therefore, the resistors should be located as close as practical to the pins. in addition, series resistors will introduce a temperature dependent offset error due to the input leakage current. a 1na input leakage current will develop a 1ppm offset error on a 5k resistor if v ref = 5v. this error has a very strong temperature dependency. output data format the ltc2430/ltc2431 serial output data stream is 24 bits long. the first 3 bits represent status information indicat- ing the sign and conversion state. the next 21 bits are the conversion result, msb first. the third and fourth bits to- gether are also used to indicate an underrange condition (the differential input voltage is below C fs) or an overrange condition (the differential input voltage is above + fs). bit 23 (first output bit) is the end of conversion (eoc) indicator. this bit is available at the sdo pin during the conversion and sleep states whenever the cs pin is low. this bit is high during the conversion and goes low when the conversion is complete. bit 22 (second output bit) is a dummy bit (dmy) and is always low. bit 21 (third output bit) is the conversion result sign indi- cator (sig). if v in is >0, this bit is high. if v in is <0, this bit is low. bit 20 (fourth output bit) is the most significant bit (msb) of the result. this bit in conjunction with bit 21 also provides the underrange or overrange indication. if both bit 21 and bit 20 are high, the differential input voltage is applicatio s i for atio wu uu ltc2430/ltc2431 13 24301f above +fs. if both bit 21 and bit 20 are low, the differential input voltage is below Cfs. the function of these bits is summarized in table 1. table 1. ltc2430/ltc2431

conversion result msb first. bit 0 is the least significant bit (lsb). data is shifted out of the sdo pin under control of the serial clock (sck), see figure 3. whenever cs is high, sdo remains high impedance and any externally generated sck clock pulses are ignored by the internal data out shift register. in order to shift the conversion result out of the device, cs must first be driven low. eoc is seen at the sdo pin of the device once cs is pulled low. eoc changes real time from high to low at the completion of a conversion. this signal may be used as an interrupt for an external micro- controller. bit 23 (eoc) can be captured on the first rising edge of sck. bit 22 is shifted out of the device on the first falling edge of sck. the final data bit (bit 0) is shifted out on the falling edge of the 23rd sck and may be latched on the rising edge of the 24th sck pulse. on the falling edge of the 24th sck pulse, sdo goes high indicating the initiation of a new conversion cycle. this bit serves as eoc (bit 22) for the next conversion cycle. table 2 summarizes the output data format. as long as the voltage on the in + and in C pins is maintained within the C 0.3v to (v cc + 0.3v) absolute maximum operating range, a conversion result is generated for any differential input voltage v in from Cfs = C 0.5 ? v ref to +fs = 0.5 ? v ref . for differential input voltages greater than

selection (f o ) the ltc2430/ltc2431 internal oscillator provides better than 110db normal mode rejection at the line frequency and all its harmonics for 50hz 2% or 60hz 2%. for 60hz rejection, f o should be connected to gnd while for 50hz rejection the f o pin should be connected to v cc . the selection of 50hz or 60hz rejection can also be made by driving f o to an appropriate logic level. a selection change during the sleep or data output states will not disturb the converter operation. if the selection is made during the conversion state, the result of the conversion in progress may be outside specifications but the following conversions will not be affected. when a fundamental rejection frequency different from 50hz or 60hz is required or when the converter must be synchronized with an outside source, the ltc2430 or ltc2431 can operate with an external conversion clock. the converter automatically detects the presence of an external clock signal at the f o pin and turns off the internal oscillator. the frequency f eosc of the external signal must be at least 5khz to be detected. the external clock signal duty cycle is not significant as long as the minimum and maximum specifications for the high and low periods t heo and t leo are observed. while operating with an external conversion clock of a frequency f eosc , the ltc2430 or ltc2431 provides better than 110db normal mode rejection in a frequency range f eosc /2560 4% and its harmonics. the normal mode rejection as a function of the input frequency deviation from f eosc /2560 is shown in figure 4. whenever an external clock is not present at the f o pin, the converter (ltc2430 or ltc2431) automatically activates its internal oscillator and enters the internal conversion clock mode. its operation will not be disturbed if the change of conversion clock source occurs during the sleep state or during the data output state while the con- verter uses an external serial clock. if the change occurs during the conversion state, the result of the conversion in progress may be outside specifications but the following conversions will not be affected. if the change occurs during the data output state and the converter is in the internal sck mode, the serial clock duty cycle may be affected but the serial data stream will remain valid. table 3 summarizes the duration of each state and the achievable output data rate as a function of f o . serial interface pins the ltc2430/ltc2431 transmit the conversion results and receives the start of conversion command through a synchronous 3-wire interface. during the conversion and sleep states, this interface can be used to assess the converter status and during the data output state it is used to read the conversion result. serial clock input/output (sck) the serial clock signal present on sck is used to synchro- nize the data transfer. each bit of data is shifted out the sdo pin on the falling edge of the serial clock. in the internal sck mode of operation, the sck pin is an output and the converter (ltc2430 or ltc2431) creates its own serial clock by dividing the internal conversion clock by 8. in the external sck mode of operation, the sck pin is used as input. the internal or external sck mode is selected on power-up and then reselected every time a high-to-low transition is detected at the cs pin. if sck figure 4. ltc2430/ltc2431

mode. if sck is low at power-up or during this transition, the converter enters the external sck mode. serial data output (sdo) the serial data output pin, sdo, provides the result of the last conversion as a serial bit stream (msb first) during the data output state. in addition, the sdo pin is used as an end of conversion indicator during the conversion and sleep states. when cs is high, the sdo driver is switched to a high impedance state. this allows sharing the serial interface with other devices. if cs is low during the convert or sleep state, sdo will output eoc. if cs is low during the conversion phase, the eoc bit appears high on the sdo pin. once the conversion is complete, eoc goes low. chip select input (cs) the active low chip select, cs, is used to test the conversion status and to enable the data output transfer as described in the previous sections. in addition, the cs signal can be used to trigger a new conversion cycle before the entire serial data transfer has been completed. the converter (ltc2430 or ltc2431) will abort any serial data transfer in progress and start a new conversion cycle anytime a low-to-high transition is detected at the cs pin after the converter has entered the data output state (i.e., after the first rising edge of sck occurs with cs = low). finally, cs can be used to control the free-running modes of operation, see serial interface timing modes section. grounding cs will force the adc to continuously convert at the maximum output rate selected by f o . serial interface timing modes the ltc2430/ltc2431s 3-wire interface is spi and microwire compatible. this interface offers several flexible modes of operation. these include internal/exter- nal serial clock, 2- or 3-wire i/o, single cycle conversion. the following sections describe each of these serial inter- face timing modes in detail. in all these cases, the converter can use the internal oscillator (f o = low or f o = high) or an external oscillator connected to the f o pin. refer to table 4 for a summary. external serial clock, single cycle operation (spi/microwire compatible) this timing mode uses an external serial clock to shift out the conversion result and a cs signal to monitor and control the state of the conversion cycle, see figure 5. applicatio s i for atio wu uu ltc2430/ltc2431 16 24301f eoc bit 23 sdo sck (external)

continuous internal figure 10 the serial clock mode is selected on the falling edge of cs. to select the external serial clock mode, the serial clock pin (sck) must be low during each cs falling edge. the serial data output pin (sdo) is hi-z as long as cs is high. at any time during the conversion cycle, cs may be pulled low in order to monitor the state of the converter. while cs is pulled low, eoc is output to the sdo pin. eoc = 1 while a conversion is in progress and eoc = 0 if the conversion is over. with cs high, the device auto- matically enters the low power sleep state once the con- version is complete. when cs is low, the device enters the data output mode. the result is held in the internal static shift register until the first sck rising edge is seen while cs is low. data is shifted out the sdo pin on each falling edge of sck. this enables external circuitry to latch the output on the rising edge of sck. eoc can be latched on the first rising edge of sck and the last bit of the conversion result can be latched on the 24th rising edge of sck. on the 24th falling edge of sck, the device begins a new conversion. sdo goes high (eoc = 1) indicating a conversion is in progress. at the conclusion of the data cycle, cs may remain low and eoc monitored as an end-of-conversion interrupt. alternatively, cs may be driven high setting sdo to hi-z. as described above, cs may be pulled low at any time in order to monitor the conversion status. typically, cs remains low during the data output state. however, the data output state may be aborted by pulling cs high anytime between the first rising edge and the 24th falling edge of sck, see figure 6. on the rising edge of cs, applicatio s i for atio wu uu figure 5. external serial clock, single cycle operation

control the state of the conversion cycle, see figure 8. in order to select the internal serial clock timing mode, the serial clock pin (sck) must be floating (hi-z) or pulled high prior to the falling edge of cs. the device will not enter the internal serial clock mode if sck is driven low on the falling edge of cs. an internal weak pull-up resistor is active on the sck pin during the falling edge of cs; therefore, the internal serial clock timing mode is auto- matically selected if sck is not externally driven. figure 6. external serial clock, reduced data output length applicatio

requiring all 24 bits of output data, aborting an invalid con- version cycle or synchronizing the start of a conversion. external serial clock, 2-wire i/o this timing mode utilizes a 2-wire serial i/o interface. the conversion result is shifted out of the device by an exter- nally generated serial clock (sck) signal, see figure 7. cs may be permanently tied to ground, simplifying the user interface or isolation barrier. the external serial clock mode is selected at the end of the power-on reset (por) cycle. the por cycle is concluded approximately 1ms after v cc exceeds 2v. the level applied to sck at this time determines if sck is internal or external. sck must be driven low prior to the end of por in order to enter the external serial clock timing mode. since cs is tied low, the end-of-conversion (eoc) can be continuously monitored at the sdo pin during the convert and sleep states. eoc may be used as an interrupt to an external controller indicating the conversion result is

remains in the sleep state a minimum amount of time (1/2 the internal sck period) then immediately begins outputting data. the data output cycle begins on the first rising edge of sck and ends after the 24th rising edge. data is shifted out the sdo pin on each falling edge of sck. the internally generated serial clock is output to the sck pin. this signal may be used to shift the conversion result into external circuitry. eoc can be latched on the first rising edge of sck and the last bit of the conversion result can be latched on the 24th rising edge of sck. after the 24th rising edge, sdo goes high (eoc = 1) indicating a new conversion is in progress. sck remains high during the conversion. preserving the converter accuracy the ltc2430/ltc2431 are designed to reduce as much as possible the conversion result sensitivity to device decoupling, pcb layout, antialiasing circuits, line fre- quency perturbations and so on. nevertheless, in order to preserve the extreme accuracy capability of this part, some simple precautions are desirable. digital signal levels the ltc2430/ltc2431s digital interface is easy to use. the digital inputs (f o , cs and sck in external sck mode of operation) accept standard ttl/cmos logic levels and the internal hysteresis receivers can tolerate edge rates as slow as 100 m s. however, some considerations are required to take advantage of the exceptional accuracy and low supply current of this converter. the digital output signals (sdo and sck in internal sck mode of operation) are less of a concern because they are not generally active during the conversion state. while a digital input signal is in the range 0.5v to (v cc C 0.5v), the cmos input receiver draws additional current from the power supply. it should be noted that, when any one of the digital input signals (f o , cs and sck in external sck mode of operation) is within this range, the ltc2430/ltc2431 power supply current may in- crease even if the signal in question is at a valid logic level. for micropower operation, it is recommended to drive all digital input signals to full cmos levels [v il < 0.4v and v oh > (v cc C 0.4v)]. during the conversion period, the undershoot and/or overshoot of a fast digital signal connected to the ltc2430/ ltc2431 pins may severely disturb the analog to digital conversion process. undershoot and overshoot can oc- cur because of the impedance mismatch at the converter pin when the transition time of an external control signal is less than twice the propagation delay from the driver to ltc2430/ltc2431 . for reference, on a regular fr-4 board, signal propagation velocity is approximately 183ps/inch for internal traces and 170ps/inch for surface traces. thus, a driver generating a control signal with a minimum transition time of 1ns must be connected to the converter pin through a trace shorter than 2.5 inches. this problem becomes particularly difficult when shared control lines are used and multiple reflections may occur. the solution is to carefully terminate all transmission lines close to their characteristic impedance. parallel termination near the ltc2430/ltc2431 pin will eliminate this problem but will increase the driver power dissipation. a series resistor between 27 w and 56 w placed near the driver or near the ltc2431 pin will also eliminate this problem without additional power dissipa- tion. the actual resistor value depends upon the trace impedance and connection topology. an alternate solution is to reduce the edge rate of the control signals. it should be noted that using very slow edges will increase the converter power supply current during the transition time. the differential input and refer- ence architecture reduce substantially the converters sensitivity to ground currents. particular attention must be given to the connection of the f o signal when the converter (ltc2430 or ltc2431) is used with an external conversion clock. this clock is active during the conversion time and the normal mode rejection provided by the internal digital filter is not very high at this frequency. a normal mode signal of this frequency at the converter reference terminals may result into dc gain and inl errors. a normal mode signal of this frequency at the converter input terminals may result into a dc offset error. such perturbations may occur due to asymmetric capaci- tive coupling between the f o signal trace and the converter input and/or reference connection traces. an immediate solution is to maintain maximum possible separation applicatio s i for atio wu uu ltc2430/ltc2431 22 24301f between the f o signal trace and the input/reference sig- nals. when the f o signal is parallel terminated near the converter, substantial ac current is flowing in the loop formed by the f o connection trace, the termination and the ground return path. thus, perturbation signals may be inductively coupled into the converter input and/or refer- ence. in this situation, the user must reduce to a minimum the loop area for the f o signal as well as the loop area for the differential input and reference connections. driving the input and reference the input and reference pins of the converter (ltc2430 or ltc2431) are directly connected to a network of sampling capacitors. depending upon the relation between the dif- ferential input voltage and the differential reference volt- age, these capacitors are switching between these four pins transfering small amounts of charge in the process. a simplified equivalent circuit is shown in figure 11. for a simple approximation, the source impedance r s driving an analog input pin (in + , in C , ref + or ref C ) can be considered to form, together with r sw and c eq (see figure 11), a first order passive network with a time constant t = (r s + r sw ) ? c eq . the converter is able to sample the input signal with better than 1ppm accuracy if the sampling period is at least 14 times greater than the input circuit time constant t . the sampling process on the four input analog pins is quasi-independent so each time constant should be considered by itself and, under worst- case circumstances, the errors may add. when using the internal oscillator (f o = low or high), the ltc2430/ltc2431s front-end switched-capacitor net- work is clocked at 76800hz corresponding to a 13 m s sampling period. thus, for settling errors of less than 1ppm, the driving source impedance should be chosen such that t 13 m s/14 = 920ns. when an external oscillator of frequency f eosc is used, the sampling period is 2/f eosc and, for a settling error of less than 1ppm, t 0.14/f eosc . input current if complete settling occurs on the input, conversion re- sults will be unaffected by the dynamic input current. an incomplete settling of the input signal sampling process may result in gain and offset errors, but it will not degrade the inl performance of the converter. figure 11 shows the mathematical expressions for the average bias currents flowing through the in + and in C pins as a result of the applicatio s i for atio wu uu figure 11. ltc2430/ltc2431 equivalent analog input circuit v ref + v

this input dynamic current can be analyzed using the test circuit of figure 12. the c par capacitor includes the ltc2430/ltc2431 pin capacitance (5pf typi- cal) plus the capacitance of the test fixture used to obtain the results shown in figures 13 and 14. a careful imple- mentation can bring the total input capacitance (c in + c par ) closer to 5pf thus achieving better performance than the one predicted by figures 13 and 14. for simplic- ity, two distinct situations can be considered. f or relatively small values of input capacitance (c in < 0.01 m f), the voltage on the sampling capacitor settles almost completely and relatively large values for the source impedance result in only small errors. such values for c in will deteriorate the converter offset and gain performance without significant benefits of signal filter- ing and the user is advised to avoid them. nevertheless, when small values of c in are unavoidably present as parasitics of input multiplexers, wires, connectors or sensors, the ltc2430 or ltc2431 can maintain its excep- tional accuracy while operating with relative large values of source resistance as shown in figures 13 and 14. these measured results may be slightly different from the first order approximation suggested earlier because they in- clude the effect of the actual second order input network together with the nonlinear settling process of the input amplifiers. for small c in values, the settling on in + and in C occurs almost independently and there is little benefit in trying to match the source impedance for the two pins. larger values of input capacitors (c in > 0.01 m f) may be required in certain configurations for antialiasing or gen- eral input signal filtering. such capacitors will average the input sampling charge and the external source resistance will see a quasi constant input differential impedance. when f o = low (internal oscillator and 60hz notch), the typical differential input resistance is 21.6m w which will generate a gain error of approximately 0.023ppm for each ohm of source resistance driving in + or in C . when f o = high (internal oscillator and 50hz notch), the typical differential input resistance is 26m w which will generate a gain error of approximately 0.019ppm for each ohm of source resistance driving in + or in C . when f o is driven by an external oscillator with a frequency f eosc (external conversion clock operation), the typical differential input resistance is 3.3 ? 10 12 /f eosc w and each ohm of source resistance driving in + or in C will result in 0.15 ? 10 C6 ? f eosc ppm gain error. the effect of the source resistance on the two input pins is additive with respect to this gain error. applicatio s i for atio wu uu figure 12. an rc network at

10 C5 ? f eosc . due to the complex filtering and calibration algorithms utilized, the converter input bandwidth is not modeled very accurately by a first order filter with the pole located at the 3db frequency. when the internal oscillator is used, the shape of the ltc2430/ltc2431 input bandwidth is shown in figure 28. when an external oscillator of frequency f eosc is used, the shape of the ltc2430/ltc2431 input bandwidth can be derived from figure 28, f o = low curve of the ltc2411 in which the horizontal axis is scaled by f eosc /153600. the conversion noise (2.8 m v rms typical for v ref = 5v) can be modeled as a white noise source connected to a noise free converter. the noise spectral density is 67nv/ ?

particular attention must be given to the design of external amplification circuits. such circuits face the simultaneous requirements of very low bandwidth (just a few hz) in order to reduce the output referred noise and relatively high bandwidth (at least 500khz) necessary to drive the input switched-capacitor network. a possible solution is a high gain, low bandwidth amplifier stage followed by a high bandwidth unity-gain buffer. when external amplifiers are driving the ltc2430/ ltc2431, the adc input referred system noise calculation can be simplified by figure 29. the noise of an amplifier driving the ltc2430/ltc2431 input pin can be modeled as a band-limited white noise source. its bandwidth can be approximated by the bandwidth of a single pole lowpass filter with a corner frequency f i . the amplifier noise spec- tral density is n i . from figure 29, using f i as the x-axis selector, we can find on the y-axis the noise equivalent bandwidth freq i of the input driving amplifier. this band- width includes the band limiting effects of the adc internal calibration and filtering. the noise of the driving amplifier referred to the converter input and including all these effects can be calculated as n = n i ? ? freq i . the total system noise (referred to the ltc2430/ltc2431 input) can now be obtained by summing as square root of sum of squares the three adc input referred noise sources: the ltc2430/ ltc2431 internal noise (2.8 m v), the noise of the in + driving amplifier and the noise of the in C driving amplifier. applicatio s i for atio wu uu figure 28.

29 can still be used for noise calculation if the x-axis is scaled by f eosc /153600. for large values of the ratio f eosc /153600, the figure 29 plot accuracy begins to decrease, but in the same time the ltc2430/ltc2431 noise floor rises and the noise contribution of the driving amplifiers lose significance. normal mode rejection and antialiasing one of the advantages delta-sigma adcs offer over con- ventional adcs is on-chip digital filtering. combined with a large oversampling ratio, the ltc2430/ltc2431 signifi- cantly simplifies antialiasing filter requirements. the sinc 4 digital filter provides greater than 120db normal mode rejection at all frequencies except dc and integer multiples of the modulator sampling frequency (f s ). the ltc2430/ltc2431s autocalibration circuits further sim- plify the antialiasing requirements by additional normal mode signal filtering both in the analog and digital domain. independent of the operating mode, f s = 256 ? f n = 2048 ? f outmax where f n is the notch frequency and f outmax is the maximum output data rate. in the internal oscillator mode, f s = 12,800hz with a 50hz notch setting and f s = 15,360hz with a 60hz notch setting. in the external oscillator mode, f s = f eosc /10. the combined normal mode rejection performance is shown in figure 30 for the internal oscillator with 50hz notch setting (f o = high) and in figure 31 for the internal oscillator with f o = low and for the external oscillator mode. the regions of low rejection occurring at integer multiples of f s have a very narrow bandwidth. magnified details of the normal mode rejection curves are shown in figure 32 (rejection near dc) and figure 33 (rejection at f s = 256f n ) where f n represents the notch frequency. these curves have been derived for the external oscillator mode but they can be used in all operating modes by appropriately selecting the f n value. the user can expect to achieve in practice this level of performance using the internal oscillator as it is demon- strated by figures 34 to 36. typical measured values of the normal mode rejection of the ltc2430/ltc2431 operat- ing with an internal oscillator and a 60hz notch setting are shown in figure 34 superimposed over the theoretical calculated curve. similarly, typical measured values of the normal mode rejection of the ltc2430/ltc2431 operat- ing with an internal oscillator and a 50hz notch setting are shown in figure 35 superimposed over the theoretical calculated curve. as a result of these remarkable normal mode specifica- tions, minimal (if any) antialias filtering is required in front of the ltc2430/ltc2431. if passive rc components are placed in front of the ltc2430/ltc2431, the input dy- namic current should be considered (see input current section). in cases where large effective rc time constants are used, an external buffer amplifier may be required to minimize the effects of dynamic input current. applicatio s i for atio wu uu figure 30. input normal

24301f traditional high order delta-sigma modulators, while pro- viding very good linearity and resolution, suffer from potential instabilities at large input signal levels. the pro- prietary architecture used for the ltc2430/ltc2431 third order modulator resolves this problem and guarantees a predictable stable behavior at input signal levels of up to 150% of full scale. in many industrial applications, it is not uncommon to have to measure microvolt level sig- nals superimposed over volt level perturbations and ltc2430/ltc2431 are eminently suited for such tasks. when the perturbation is differential, the specification of interest is the normal mode rejection for large input sig- nal levels. with a reference voltage v ref = 5v, the ltc2430/ltc2431 have a full-scale differential input range of 5v peak-to-peak. figures 36 and 37 show measure- ment results for the ltc2430/ltc2431 normal mode re- jection ratio with a 7.5v peak-to-peak (150% of full scale) input signal superimposed over the more traditional nor- mal mode rejection ratio results obtained with a 5v peak- to-peak (full scale) input signal. it is clear that the ltc2430/ ltc2431 rejection performance is maintained with no compromises in this extreme situation. when operating with large input signal levels, the user must observe that such signals do not violate the device absolute maximum ratings. applicatio s i for atio wu uu input signal frequency (hz) input normal mode rejection (db) 2431 f32 0 ?0 ?0 ?0 ?0 ?0 ?0 ?0 ?0 ?0 100 110 120 f n 0 2f n 3f n 4f n 5f n 6f n 7f n 8f n

37. measured input normal mode rejection vs input frequency bridge applications typical strain gauge based bridges deliver only 2mv/volt of excitation. as the maximum reference voltage of the ltc2430/ltc2431 is 5v, remote sensing of applied exci- tation without additional circuitry requires that excitation be limited to 5v. this gives only 10mv full scale, which can be resolved to 1 part in 3500 without averaging. for many solid state sensors, this is comparable to the sensor. av- eraging 128 samples however reduces the noise level by a factor of eight, bringing the resolving power to 1 part in 40000, comparable to better weighing systems. hysteresis and creep effects in the load cells are typically much greater than this. most applications that require strain measure- ments to this level of accuracy are measuring slowly chang- ing phenomena, hence the time required to average a large number of readings is usually not an issue. for those sys- tems that require accurate measurement of a small incre- mental change on a significant tare weight, the lack of history effects in the ltc2400 family is of great benefit. for those applications that cannot be fulfilled by the ltc2430/ltc2431 alone, compensating for error in exter- nal amplification can be done effectively due to the no latency feature of the ltc2430/ltc2431. no latency operation allows samples of the amplifier offset and gain to be interleaved with weighing measurements. the use of correlated double sampling allows suppression of 1/f noise, offset and thermocouple effects within the bridge. correlated double sampling involves alternating the polarity of excitation and dealing with the reversal of input polarity mathematically. alternatively, bridge excita- tion can be increased to as much as 10v, if one of several precision attenuation techniques is used to produce a precision divide operation on the reference signal. an- other option is the use of a reference within the 5v input range of the ltc2430/ltc2431 and developing excitation via fixed gain, or ltc1043 based voltage multiplication, along with remote feedback in the excitation amplifiers, as shown in figures 43 and 45.

impor- tance. for many applications where large vessels are weighed, the average weight over an extended period of time is of concern and short term weight is not readily determined due to movement of contents, or mechanical resonance. often, large weighing applications involve load cells located at each load bearing point, the output of which can be summed passively prior to the signal pro- cessing circuitry, actively with amplification prior to the adc, or can be digitized via multiple adc channels and summed mathematically. the mathematical summation of the output of multiple ltc2430/ltc2431s provide the benefit of a root square reduction in noise. the low power consumption of the ltc2430/ltc2431 make it attractive for multidrop communication schemes where the adc is located within the load-cell housing. a direct connection to a load cell is perhaps best incorpo- rated into the load-cell body, as minimizing the distance to the sensor largely eliminates the need for protection devices, rfi suppression and wiring. the ltc2430/ ltc2431 exhibit extremely low temperature dependent drift. as a result, exposure to external ambient tempera- ture ranges does not compromise performance. the in- corporation of any amplification considerably complicates thermal stability, as input offset voltages and currents, temperature coefficient of gain settling resistors all be- come factors. the circuit in figure 39 shows an example of a simple amplification scheme. this example produces a differen- tial output with a common mode voltage of 2.5v, as determined by the bridge. the use of a true three amplifier instrumentation amplifier is not necessary, as the ltc2430/ ltc2431 have common mode rejection far beyond that of most amplifiers. the ltc1051 is a dual autozero amplifier that can be used to produce a gain of 10 before its input referred noise dominates the ltc2430/ltc2431 noise. this example shows a gain of 34, that is determined by a feedback network built using a resistor array containing eight individual resistors. the resistors are organized to optimize temperature tracking in the presence of thermal gradients. the second ltc1051 buffers the low noise input stage from the transient load steps produced during conversion. the gain stability and accuracy of this approach is very good, due to a statistical improvement in resistor match- ing due to individual error contribution being reduced. a gain of 34 may seem low, when compared to common applicatio s i for atio wu uu 0.1 f 8 0.1 f 0.1 f ref + ref sdo sck in + in cs gnd v

ltc2430/ltc2431 changes the rationale. achieving high gain accuracy and linearity at higher gains may prove difficult, while providing little benefit in terms of noise reduction. at a gain of 100, the gain error that could result from typical open-loop gain of 160db is C1ppm, however, worst-case is at the minimum gain of 116db, giving a gain error of C158ppm. worst-case gain error at a gain of 34, is C54ppm. the use of the ltc1051a reduces the worst- case gain error to C33ppm. the advantage of gain higher than 34, then becomes dubious, as the input referred noise sees little improvement and gain accuracy is poten- tially compromised. note that this 4-amplifier topology has advantages over the typical integrated 3-amplifier instrumentation ampli- fier in that it does not have the high noise level common in the output stage that usually dominates when an instru- mentation amplifier is used at low gain. if this amplifier is used at a gain of 10, the gain error is only 10ppm and input referred noise is reduced to 0.28 m v rms . the buffer stages can also be configured to provide gain of up to 50 with high gain stability and linearity. figure 40 shows an example of a single amplifier used to produce single-ended gain. this topology is best used in applications where the gain setting resistor can be made to match the temperature coefficient of the strain gauges. if the bridge is composed of precision resistors, with only one or two variable elements, the reference arm of the bridge can be made to act in conjunction with the feedback resistor to determine the gain. if the feedback resistor is incorporated into the design of the load cell, using resis- tors which match the temperature coefficient of the load- cell elements, good results can be achieved without the need for resistors with a high degree of absolute accuracy. the common mode voltage in this case, is again a function of the bridge output. differential gain as used with a 350 w bridge is: a rr r v == + +w 995 12 1 175 . common mode gain is half the differential gain. the maximum differential signal that can be used is 1/4 v ref , as opposed to 1/2 v ref in the 2-amplifier topology above. remote half bridge interface as opposed to full bridge applications, typical half bridge applications must contend with nonlinearity in the bridge output, as signal swing is often much greater. applications include rtds, thermistors and other resistive elements that undergo significant changes over their span. for applicatio s i for atio wu uu 0.1 f 5v ref + ref in + in gnd v cc 3 2 4 6 7

ltc2430/ltc2431 35 24301f single variable element bridges, the nonlinearity of the half bridge output can be eliminated completely; if the refer- ence arm of the bridge is used as the reference to the adc, as shown in figure 41. the ltc2430/ltc2431 can accept inputs up to 1/2 v ref . hence, the reference resistor r1 must be at least 2 the highest value of the variable resistor. in the case of 100 w platinum rtds, this would suggest a value of 800 w for r1. such a low value for r1 is not advisable due to self-heating effects. a value of 25.5k is shown for r1, reducing self-heating effects to acceptable levels for most sensors. the basic circuit shown in figure 41 shows connections for a full 4-wire connection to the sensor, which may be located remotely. the differential input connections will reject induced or coupled 60hz interference, however, the reference inputs do not have the same rejection. if 60hz or other noise is present on the rtd, a low pass filter is recommended as shown in figure 42. note that you cannot place a large capacitor directly at the junction of r1 and r2, as it will store charge from the sampling process. a better approach is to produce a low pass filter decoupled from the input lines with a high value resistor (r3). the use of a third resistor in the half bridge, between the variable and fixed elements gives essentially the same result as the two resistor version, but has a few benefits. if, for example, a 25k reference resistor is used to set the excitation current with a 100 w rtd, the negative reference input is sampling the same external node as the positive input, but may result in errors if used with a long cable. for short cable applications, the errors may be acceptably low. if instead the single 25k resistor is replaced with a 10k 5% and a 10k 0.1% reference resistor, the noise level introduced at the reference, at least at higher frequencies, will be reduced. a filter can be introduced into the network, in the form of one or more capacitors, or ferrite beads, as long as the sampling pulses are not translated into an error. the reference voltage is also reduced, but this is not undesirable, as it will decrease the value of the lsb, although, not the input referred noise level. applicatio s i for atio wu uu 2431 f41 ref in + in gnd v cc v s 2.7v to 5.5v platinum 100 rtd r1 25.5k 0.1% 4 3 2 1 ref + ltc2430/ ltc2431

half bridge sensing with noise supression on reference ltc2430/ltc2431 36 24301f the circuit shown in figure 42 shows a more rigorous example of figure 41, with increased noise suppression and more protection for remote applications. figure 43 shows an example of gain in the excitation circuit and remote feedback from the bridge. the ltc1043s provide voltage multiplication, providing 10v from a 5v reference with only 1ppm error. the amplifiers are used at unity-gain and, hence, introduce a very little error due to gain error or due to offset voltages. a 1 m v/ c offset voltage applicatio s i for atio wu uu drift translates into 0.05ppm/ c gain error. simpler alter- natives, with the amplifiers providing gain using resistor arrays for feedback, can produce results that are similar to bridge sensing schemes via attenuators. note that the amplifiers must have high open-loop gain or gain error will be a source of error. the fact that input offset voltage has relatively little effect on overall error may lead one to use low performance amplifiers for this application. note that the gain of a device such as an lf156, (25v/mv over 350 bridge 0.1 f 1 f 15v 15v 15v 38 14 7 4 13 12 11

such as would be encountered in an inverting gain of 2, to produce C10v from a 5v reference. the error associated with the 10v excitation would be C80ppm. hence, overall reference error could be as high as 130ppm, the average of the two. figure 45 shows a similar scheme to provide excitation using resistor arrays to produce precise gain. the circuit is configured to provide 10v and C5v excitation to the bridge, producing a common mode voltage at the input to the ltc2430/ltc2431 of 2.5v, maximizing the ac input range for applications where induced 60hz could reach amplitudes up to 2v rms . the circuits in figures 43 and 45 could be used where multiple bridge circuits are involved and bridge output can be multiplexed onto a single ltc2430/ltc2431, via an inexpensive multiplexer such as the 74hc4052. figure 44 shows the use of an ltc2430/ltc2431 with a differential multiplexer. this is an inexpensive multiplexer that will contribute some error due to leakage if used directly with the output from the bridge, or if resistors are inserted as a protection mechanism from overvoltage. although the bridge output may be within the input range of the a/d and multiplexer in normal operation, some thought should be given to fault conditions that could result in full excitation voltage at the inputs to the multi- plexer or adc. the use of amplification prior to the multiplexer will largely eliminate errors associated with channel leakage developing error voltages in the source impedance. complete 20-bit data acquistion system in 0.1 inch 2 the ltc2430/ltc2431 provide 20-bit accuracy while consuming a maximum of 300 m a. the ms package of the ltc2431 makes it especially attractive in applications where very limited space is available. a complete 20-bit data acquisition system in 0.1 inch 2 is shown in figure 46 where the ltc2431 is powered by the lt1790 reference family in an s6 package. a supply voltage from 0.25v above the lt1790 output level to 20v enables the lt1790 to source up to 1ma and ensure the solid performance of the lt2431. the 3v, 3.3v, 4.096v and 5v versions of the lt1790 can power the ltc2430/ltc2431 directly. lower voltage ver- sions will require a separate v cc supply of 2.7v to 5.5v for the ltc2430/ltc2431. 2431 f44 ref + ref in + in a0 a1 v cc gnd 13 3 6 12 47 f 14 1 5 10 16 5v 15 11 2 to other devices 4 9 8 5v + 74hc4052 ltc2430/
