Description
The MCP33151/41-10 and MCP33151/41-05 are
single-ended, 14-bit and 12-bit, single-channel 1 Msps
and 500 kSPS ADC family devices, respectively,
featuring
low-power
consumption
and
high
performance, using a successive approximation
register (SAR) architecture.
The device operates with an external voltage reference
(V
REF
) from AV
DD
to 5.1V, which supports a wide range
of input full-scale range from 0V to V
REF
. The reference
voltage setting is independent of the analog supply
voltage (AV
DD
) and is higher than AV
DD.
The
conversion output is available through an easy-to-use
simple SPI-compatible 3-wire interface.
The device requires a 1.8V analog supply voltage
(AV
DD
) and a 1.7V to 5.5V digital I/O interface supply
voltage (DV
IO
). The wide digital I/O interface supply
(DV
IO
) range (1.7V-5.5V) allows the device to interface
with most host devices (Master) available in the current
industry, such as the PIC32 microcontrollers, without
using external voltage level shifters.
Once all supply voltages are connected, the device will
power-up and perform an automatic calibration to
minimize offset, gain and linearity errors. The
automatic calibration takes place approximately 40 ms
following power-up, and it is necessary to ensure that
all power supplies are fully settled and stable after this
time. See
Section 4.1.1, Power-Up Sequence and
Auto-Calibration
for more details. The device
performance stays stable across the specified
temperature range. However, when extreme changes
in the operating environment, such as in the reference
voltage, are made with respect to the initial conditions
(e.g. the reference voltage did not fully settle during the
initial power-up sequence), the user may send a
recalibrate command anytime to initiate another self-
calibration to restore optimum performance.
When the initial power-up sequence is completed, the
device enters a low-current input acquisition mode,
where sampling capacitors are connected to the input
pins. This mode is called Standby.
During Standby mode, most of the internal analog
circuitry is shut down in order to reduce current
consumption. Typically, the device consumes
approximately 1.5 µA during Standby. A new
conversion is started on the rising edge of CNVST.
When the conversion is complete and the host lowers
CNVST, the output data is presented on SDO, and the
device enters Standby mode to begin acquiring the
next input sample. The user can clock out the ADC
output data using the SPI-compatible serial clock
during Standby.
The ADC system clock is generated by an internal on-
chip clock, therefore the conversion is performed
independent of the SPI serial clock (SCLK).
This device can be used for various high-speed and
high-accuracy analog-to-digital data conversion
applications, where design simplicity, low power, and
no output latency are needed.
The device is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive
applications and operates over the extended
temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. The available
package options are Pb-free TDFN-10 and MSOP-10.
