DESCRIPTION
The ADS1225 and ADS1226 are 24-bit delta-sigma
analog-to-digital (A/D) converters. They offer
excellent performance, ease-of-use, and low power
in a small 4mm × 4mm QFN package and are
well-suited for demanding high-resolution
measurements, especially in portable and other
space-saving and power-constrained applications.
The ADS1225 and ADS1226 convert on command
using a dedicated START pin. Simply pulse this pin
to initiate a conversion. Data is read in a single cycle
for retrieval over a 2-wire serial interface that easily
connects to popular microcontrollers like the
MSP430. After the conversion completes, the
ADS1225 and ADS1226 automatically shuts down all
circuitry.
Internal features include a two-channel multiplexer
(ADS1226), selectable input buffer, temperature
sensor, and oscillator. The full-scale range is defined
by the external voltage reference with support
provided for up to a 5V differential input signal. Two
operating modes allow for speed (100SPS data rate,
15µVRMS noise) or resolution (4µVRMS noise, 16SPS
data rate).
The ADS1225/6 supports 2.7 to 5.5V analog and
digital supplies. Power consumption is 1mW while
converting with 3V supplies. The ADS1225 and
ADS1226 are fully specified over an extended
industrial temperature range of –40°C to +105°C.
