Common Mode Range
3ppm INL, No Missing Codes
10ppm Full-Scale Error and 1ppm Offset
0.56ppm Noise, 20.8 ENOBs
No Latency: Digital Filter Settles in a Single Cycle.
Each Conversion Is Accurate, Even After an
Input Step
Single Supply 2.7V to 5.5V Operation
Internal Oscillator—No External Components
Required
110dB Min, 50Hz/60Hz Notch Filter
Pin Compatible with 24-Bit LTC2410/LTC2411
The LTC
®
2430/LTC2431 are 2.7V to 5.5V micropower
20-bit differential
∆Σ
analog-to-digital converters with an
integrated oscillator, 3ppm INL and 0.56ppm RMS noise.
They use delta-sigma technology and provide single cycle
settling time for multiplexed applications. Through a
single pin, the LTC2430/LTC2431 can be configured for
better than 110dB differential mode rejection at 50Hz or
60Hz
±2%,
or they can be driven by an external oscillator
for a user-defined rejection frequency. The internal oscil-
lator requires no external frequency setting components.
The converters accept any external differential reference
voltage from 0.1V to V
CC
for flexible ratiometric and
remote sensing measurement configurations. The full-
scale differential input range is from – 0.5V
REF
to 0.5V
REF
.
The reference common mode voltage, V
REFCM
, and the
input common mode voltage, V
INCM
, may be indepen-
dently set anywhere within GND to V
CC
. The DC common
mode input rejection is better than 120dB.
The LTC2430/LTC2431 communicate through a flexible
3-wire digital interface that is compatible with SPI and
MICROWIRE
TM
protocols.

Note 9:
The converter is in external SCK mode of operation such that
the SCK pin is used as digital input. The frequency of the clock signal
driving SCK during the data output is f
ESCK
and is expressed in kHz.
Note 10:
The converter is in internal SCK mode of operation such that
the SCK pin is used as digital output. In this mode of operation the
SCK pin has a total equivalent load capacitance C
LOAD
= 20pF.
Note 11:
The external oscillator is connected to the F
O
pin. The external
oscillator frequency, f
EOSC
, is expressed in kHz.
Note 12:
The converter uses the internal oscillator.
