The ADS1146, ADS1147, and ADS1148 devices are precision, 16-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) that include many integrated features to reduce system cost and component count for sensor measurement applications. The devices feature a low-noise, programmable gain amplifier (PGA), a precision delta-sigma (ΔΣ) ADC with a single-cycle settling digital filter, and an internal oscillator. The ADS1147 and ADS1148 devices also provide a built-in, low-drift voltage reference, and two matched programmable excitation current sources (IDACs).
●An input multiplexer supports four differential inputs for the ADS1148, two for the ADS1147, and one for the ADS1146. In addition, the multiplexer integrates sensor burn-out detection, voltage bias for thermocouples, system monitoring, and general purpose digital I/Os (ADS1147 and ADS1148). The PGA provides selectable gains up to 128 V/V. These features provide a complete front-end solution for temperature sensor measurement applications including thermocouples, thermistors, and resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) and other small signal measurements including resistive bridge sensors. The digital filter settles in a single cycle to support fast channel cycling when using the input multiplexer and provides data rates up to 2 kSPS. For data rates of 20 SPS or less, both 50-Hz and 60-Hz interference are rejected by the filter.
