The LTC
®
2400 is a 2.7V to 5.5V micropower 24-bit
converter with an integrated oscillator, 4ppm INL and
0.3ppm RMS noise. It uses delta-sigma technology and
provides single cycle settling time for multiplexed appli-
cations. Through a single pin the LTC2400 can be config-
ured for better than 110dB rejection at 50Hz or 60Hz
±2%,
or it can be driven by an external oscillator for a user
defined rejection frequency in the range 1Hz to 120Hz.
The internal oscillator requires no external frequency
setting components.
The converter accepts any external reference voltage from
0.1V to V
CC
. With its extended input conversion range of
–12.5% V
REF
to 112.5% V
REF
, the LTC2400 smoothly
resolves the offset and overrange problems of preceding
sensors or signal conditioning circuits.
The LTC2400 communicates through a flexible 3-wire
digital interface which is compatible with SPI and
MICROWIRE
TM
protocols.

Integral nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of a code from
a straight line passing through the actual endpoints of the transfer
curve. The deviation is measured from the center of the quantization
band.

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

pin. The external
oscillator frequency, f
EOSC
, is expressed in kHz.
