32-Bit Over-Sampling ADC with Configurable Digital Filter

The LTC2500-32 is a low noise, low power, high performance 32-bit ADC with an integrated configurable digital filter. Operating from a single 2.5V supply, the LTC2500-32 features a fully differential input range up to ±VREF, with VREF ranging from 2.5V to 5.1V. The LTC2500-32 supports a wide common mode range from 0V to VREF simplifying analog signal conditioning requirements.

The LTC2500-32 simultaneously provides two output codes: (1) a 32-bit digitally filtered high precision low noise code, and (2) a 32-bit no latency composite code. The configurable digital filter reduces measurement noise by lowpass filtering and downsampling the stream of data from the SAR ADC core, giving the 32-bit filtered output code. The 32-bit composite code consists of an overrange detection bit, a 24-bit code representing the differential input voltage and a 7-bit code representing the common mode input voltage. The 32-bit composite code is available each conversion cycle, with no cycle of latency.

The digital filter is highly configurable through the SPI-compatible interface and features many distinct filter types that suit a variety of applications. The digital lowpass filter relaxes the requirements for analog anti-aliasing. Multiple LTC2500-32 devices can be easily synchronized using the SYNC pin.
