Description
The MCP3901 is a dual channel Analog Front End (AFE) containing two synchronous sampling Delta-Sigma Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADC), two PGAs, phase delay compensation block internal voltage reference, modulator output block, and high-speed 20 MHz SPI compatible serial interface. The converters contain a proprietary dithering algorithm for reduced Idle tones and improved THD.
The internal register map contains 24-bit wide ADC data words, a modulator output byte, as well as six writable control registers to program gain, oversampling ratio, phase, resolution, dithering, shutdown, Reset and several communication features.
