The LTC1283 is a 3V data acquisition component which
contains a serial I/O successive approximation A/D con-
verter. It uses LTCMOS
TM
switched capacitor technology
to perform either 10-bit unipolar, or 9-bit plus sign bipolar
A/D conversions. The 8-channel input multiplexer can be
configured for either single-ended or differential inputs (or
combinations thereof). An on-chip sample-and-hold is
included for all single-ended input channels.
The serial I/O is designed to be compatible with industry-
standard full-duplex serial interfaces. It allows either MSB-
or LSB-first data and automatically provides 2’s comple-
ment output coding in the bipolar mode. The output data
word can be programmed for a length of 8-, 10-, 12-, or
16-bit. This allows easy interface to shift registers and a
variety of processors.
Both the LTC1283A and LTC1283 are specified with offset
and linearity errors less than
±0.5LSB.
The LTC1283A has
a gain error limit of
±1LSB.
The 1283 is specified with a
gain error limit of
±2LSB
for applications where gain is
adjustable or less critcial.

Note 1:
Absolute maximum ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
All voltage values are with respect to ground with DGND, AGND
and REF

wired together (unless otherwise noted).

–
= 0V for unipolar mode
and – 3V for bipolar mode, ACLK = 1MHz, SCLK = 0.25MHz unless
otherwise specified.
Note 4:
These specifications apply for both unipolar and bipolar modes. In
bipolar mode, one LSB is equal to the bipolar input span (2V
REF
) divided
by 1024. For example, when V
REF
= 2.5V, 1LSB (bipolar) = 2(2.5V)/1024 =
4.88mV.
Note 5:
Linearity error is the deviation from ideal of the slope between the
two end points of the transfer curve.

Note 6:
Two on-chip diodes are tied to each reference and analog input
which will conduct for reference or analog input voltages one diode drop
below V
–
or one diode drop above V
CC
. Be careful during testing at low
V
CC
levels, as high level reference or analog inputs can cause this input
diode to conduct, especially at elevated temperatures, and cause errors for
inputs near full scale. This spec allows 50mV forward bias of either diode.
This means that as long as the reference or analog input does not exceed
the supply voltage by more than 50mV, the output code will be correct.
Note 7:
Channel leakage current is measured after the channel selection.
Note 8:
To minimize errors caused by noise at the chip select input, the
internal circuitry waits for two ACLK falling edges after a chip select falling
edge is detected before responding to control input signals. Therefore, no
attempt should be made to clock an address in or data out until the
minimum chip select setup time has elapsed.
