DESCRIPTIO  
FEATURES  
The LTC®2435/2435-1 are 2.7V to 5.5V micropower  
20-bit differential ΔΣ analog to digital converters with  
integrated oscillator, 3ppm INL and 0.8ppm RMS noise.  
Theyusedelta-sigmatechnologyandprovidesinglecycle  
settling time for multiplexed applications. Through a  
single pin, the LTC2435 can be configured for better than  
110dB input differential mode rejection at 50Hz or 60Hz  
2%, oritcanbedrivenbyanexternaloscillatorforauser  
defined rejection frequency. The LTC2435-1 can be con-  
figured for better than 87dB input differential mode rejec-  
tion over the range of 49Hz to 61.2Hz (50Hz and 60Hz  
2% simultaneously). The internal oscillator requires no  
external frequency setting components.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings  
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute  
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device  
reliability and lifetime.  
Note 8: FO = VCC (internal oscillator) or fEOSC = 128000Hz 2%  
(external oscillator).  
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 fESCK and is expressed in kHz.  
Note 2: All voltage values are with respect to GND.  
Note 3: VCC = 2.7 to 5.5V unless otherwise specified.  
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 CLOAD = 20pF.  
VREF = REF+ – REF, VREFCM = (REF+ + REF)/2;

IN = IN+ – IN, VINCM = (IN+ + IN)/2.  
Note 4: FO pin tied to GND or to VCC or to external conversion clock  
Note 11: The external oscillator is connected to the FO pin. The external  
source with fEOSC = 153600Hz unless otherwise specified.  
oscillator frequency, fEOSC, is expressed in kHz.  
Note 5: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.  
Note 12: The converter uses the internal oscillator.  
FO = 0V or FO = VCC  
Note 13: The output noise includes the contribution of the internal  
calibration operations.  
Note 14: Refer to Offset Accuracy and Drift in the Applications  
.
Note 6: 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.  
Note 7: FO = 0V (internal oscillator) or fEOSC = 153600Hz 2%

periods, this pin is used as the conversion status output.  
TheconversionstatuscanbeobservedbypullingCSLOW.  
VCC (Pin 2): Positive Supply Voltage. Bypass to GND  
(Pin 1) with a 10μF tantalum capacitor in parallel with SCK (Pin 13): Bidirectional Digital Clock Pin. In Internal  
0.1μF ceramic capacitor as close to the part as possible.  
Serial Clock Operation mode, SCK is used as digital output  
for the internal serial interface clock during the Data  
Output period. In External Serial Clock Operation mode,  
SCK is used as digital input for the external serial interface  
clock during the Data Output period. A weak internal pull-  
up is automatically activated in Internal Serial Clock Op-  
eration mode. The Serial Clock Operation mode is deter-  
mined by the logic level applied to the SCK pin at power up  
or during the most recent falling edge of CS.  
REF+ (Pin 3), REF(Pin 4): Differential Reference Input.  
ThevoltageonthesepinscanhaveanyvaluebetweenGND  
and VCC as long as the reference positive input, REF+, is  
maintained more positive than the reference negative  
input, REF , by at least 0.1V.  
IN+ (Pin 5), IN(Pin 6): Differential Analog Input. The  
voltage on these pins can have any value between  
GND – 0.3V and VCC + 0.3V. Within these limits the  
converter bipolar input range (VIN = IN+ – IN) extends  
from0.5(VREF)to0.5(VREF). Outsidethisinputrange  
the converter produces unique overrange and underrange  
output codes.  
FO (Pin 14): Frequency Control Pin. Digital input that  
controls the ADC’s notch frequencies and conversion  
time. WhentheFO pinisconnectedtoVCC (LTC2435only),  
the converter uses its internal oscillator and the digital  
filter first null is located at 50Hz. When the FO pin is  
connectedtoGND(FO =OV),theconverterusesitsinternal  
oscillator and the digital filter first null is located at 60Hz  
(LTC2435) or simultaneous 50Hz/60Hz (LTC2435-1).  
When FO is driven by an external clock signal with a  
frequency fEOSC, the converter uses this signal as its  
system clock and the digital filter first null is located at a  
frequency fEOSC/2560.  
CS (Pin 11): Active LOW Digital Input. A LOW on this pin  
enables the SDO digital output and wakes up the ADC.  
Following each conversion, the ADC automatically enters  
the Sleep mode and remains in this low power state as  
long as CS is HIGH. A LOW-to-HIGH transition on CS  
during the Data Output transfer aborts the data transfer  
and starts a new conversion.

CONVERTER OPERATION  
There is no latency in the conversion result. The data  
output corresponds to the conversion just performed.  
This result is shifted out on the serial data out pin (SDO)  
underthecontroloftheserialclock(SCK). Dataisupdated  
onthefallingedgeofSCKallowingtheusertoreliablylatch  
data on the rising edge of SCK (see Figure 3). The data  
output state is concluded once 24 bits are read out of the  
ADC or when CS is brought HIGH. The device automati-  
cally initiates a new conversion and the cycle repeats.  
Converter Operation Cycle  
TheLTC2435/LTC2435-1arelowpower,delta-sigmaana-  
log-to-digital converters with an easy to use 3-wire serial  
interface (see Figure 1). Their operation is made up of  
threestates. Theconverteroperatingcyclebeginswiththe  
conversion, followed by the sleep state and ends with the  
dataoutput(seeFigure2). The3-wireinterfaceconsistsof  
serialdataoutput(SDO),serialclock(SCK)andchipselect  
(CS).  
Through timing control of the CS and SCK pins, the  
LTC2435/LTC2435-1 offer several flexible modes of op-  
eration (internal or external SCK and free-running conver-  
sion modes). These various modes do not require pro-  
gramming configuration registers; moreover, they do not  
disturbthecyclicoperationdescribedabove.Thesemodes  
of operation are described in detail in the Serial Interface  
Timing Modes section.

A major advantage the delta-sigma converter offers over  
conventional type converters is an on-chip digital filter  
(commonly implemented as a Sinc or Comb filter). For  
high resolution, low frequency applications, this filter is  
typically designed to reject line frequencies of 50Hz or  
60Hz plus their harmonics. The filter rejection perfor-  
mance is directly related to the accuracy of the converter  
system clock. The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 incorporate a  
highly accurate on-chip oscillator. This eliminates the  
need for external frequency setting components such as  
crystals or oscillators. Clocked by the on-chip oscillator,  
the LTC2435 achieves a minimum of 110dB rejection at  
the line frequency (50Hz or 60Hz 2%), while the  
LTC2435-1 achieves a minimum of 87db rejection at 50Hz  
2% and 60Hz 2% simultaneously.

Initially, the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 perform a conversion.  
Once the conversion is complete, the device enters the  
sleep state. While in this sleep state, power consumption  
isreducedbyanorderofmagnitudeifCSisHIGH. Thepart  
remains in the sleep state as long as CS is HIGH. The  
conversion result is held indefinitely in a static shift  
register while the converter is in the sleep state.  
Once CS is pulled LOW, the device exits the low power  
sleepmodeandentersthedataoutputstate. IfCSispulled

to the sleep mode and the conversion result is still held in  
the internal static shift register. If CS remains LOW after  
the first rising edge of SCK, the device begins outputting  
the conversion result. Taking CS HIGH at this point will

Ease of Use  
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 data output has no latency,  
filter settling delay or redundant data associated with the  
conversion cycle. There is a one-to-one correspondence  
between the conversion and the output data. Therefore,  
multiplexing multiple analog voltages is easy.

The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 perform a full-scale calibration  
every conversion cycle. This calibration is transparent to  
the user and has no effect on the cyclic operation de-  
scribed above. The advantage of continuous calibration is  
extremestabilityoffull-scalereadingswithrespecttotime,  
supply voltage change and temperature drift.  
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 can accept a differential refer-  
ence voltage from 0.1V to VCC. The converter output noise  
is determined by the thermal noise of the front-end cir-  
cuits, and as such, its value is nearly constant with  
reference voltage. A decrease in reference voltage will not  
significantly improve the converter’s effective resolution.  
On the other hand, a reduced reference voltage will im-  
prove the converter’s overall INL performance. A reduced  
reference voltage will also improve the converter perfor-  
mance when operated with an external conversion clock  
(external FO signal) at substantially higher output data  
rates (see the Output Data Rate section).  
Unlike the LTC2430, the LTC2435 and LTC2435-1 do not  
perform an offset calibration every conversion cycle. This  
enables the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 to double their output  
rate while maintaining line frequency rejection. The initial  
offset of the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 is within 5mV indepen-  
dentofVREF.BasedontheLTC2435/LTC2435-1newmodu-  
lator architecture, the temperature drift of the offset is less  
than 100nV/°C. More information on the LTC2435/  
LTC2435-1 offset is described in the Offset Accuracy and  
Drift section of this data sheet.  
Input Voltage Range  
The analog input is truly differential with an absolute/  
common mode range for the IN+ and INinput pins  
extending from GND – 0.3V to VCC + 0.3V. Outside  
these limits, the ESD protection devices begin to turn on  
and the errors due to input leakage current increase  
rapidly. Withintheselimits, theLTC2435/LTC2435-1con-  
vert the bipolar differential input signal, VIN = IN+ – IN,  
Power-Up Sequence  
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 automatically enter an internal  
reset state when the power supply voltage VCC drops  
below approximately 2.2V. This feature guarantees the  
integrity of the conversion result and of the serial interface  
mode selection. (See the 2-wire I/O sections in the Serial  
Interface Timing Modes section.)  
from FS = 0.5 • VREF to +FS = 0.5 • VREF where VREF  
=
REF+ – REF. Outside this range, the converters indicate  
the overrange or the underrange condition using distinct  
output codes.  
When the VCC voltage rises above this critical threshold,  
the converter creates an internal power-on-reset (POR)  
signal with a duration of approximately 1ms. The POR  
signal clears all internal registers. Following the POR  
signal,theLTC2435/LTC2435-1startanormalconversion  
cycleandfollowthesuccessionofstatesdescribedabove.  
The first conversion result following POR is accurate  
within the specifications of the device if the power supply  
voltage is restored within the operating range (2.7V to  
5.5V) before the end of the POR time interval.  
Input signals applied to IN+ and INpins may extend by  
300mV below ground and above VCC. In order to limit any  
fault current, resistors of up to 5k may be added in series  
with the IN+ and INpins without affecting the perfor-  
mance of the device. In the physical layout, it is important  
to maintain the parasitic capacitance of the connection  
betweentheseseriesresistorsandthecorrespondingpins  
as low as possible; therefore, the resistors should be  
located as close as practical to the pins. The effect of the  
series resistance on the converter accuracy can be evalu-  
ated from the curves presented in the Input Current/  
Reference Current sections. In addition, series resistors  
will introduce a temperature dependent offset error due to  
the input leakage current. A 1nA input leakage current will  
develop a 1ppm offset error on a 5k resistor if VREF = 5V.  
This error has a very strong temperature dependency.  
Reference Voltage Range  
These converters accept a truly differential external refer-  
ence voltage. The absolute/common mode voltage speci-  
ficationfortheREF+ andREFpinscoverstheentirerange  
from GND to VCC. For correct converter operation, the  
REF+ pin must always be more positive than the REFpin.

Output Data Format  
SCK clock pulses are ignored by the internal data out shift  
register.  
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 serial output data stream is 24  
bits long. The first 3 bits represent status information  
indicating the sign and conversion state. The next 21 bits  
are the conversion result, MSB first. The third and fourth  
bit together are also used to indicate an underrange  
condition(thedifferentialinputvoltageisbelowFS)oran  
overrangecondition(thedifferentialinputvoltageisabove  
+FS).  
In order to shift the conversion result out of the device, CS  
mustfirstbedrivenLOW. EOCisseenattheSDOpinofthe

HIGH to LOW at the completion of a conversion. This  
signal may be used as an interrupt for an external  
microcontroller. Bit 23 (EOC) can be captured on the first  
risingedgeofSCK. Bit22isshiftedoutofthedeviceonthe  
first falling edge of SCK. The final data bit (Bit 0) is shifted  
out on the falling edge of the 23rd SCK and may be latched  
on the rising edge of the 24th SCK pulse. On the falling  
edge of the 24th SCK pulse, SDO goes HIGH indicating the  
initiation of a new conversion cycle. This bit serves as EOC  
(Bit 23) for the next conversion cycle. Table 2 summarizes  
the output data format.  
AslongasthevoltageontheIN+ andINpinsismaintained  
within the 0.3V to (VCC + 0.3V) absolute maximum  
operating range, a conversion result is generated for any  
differential input voltage VIN from –FS = –0.5 • VREF to  
+FS = 0.5 • VREF. For differential input voltages greater  
than +FS, the conversion result is clamped to the value  
corresponding to the +FS. For differential input voltages  
below –FS, the conversion result is clamped to the value  
corresponding to –FS – 1LSB.  
Bit 23 (first output bit) is the end of conversion (EOC)  
indicator. This bit is available at the SDO pin during the  
conversion and sleep states whenever the CS pin is LOW.  
This bit is HIGH during the conversion and goes LOW  
when the conversion is complete.  
Bit 22 (second output bit) is a dummy bit (DMY) and is  
always LOW.  
Bit 21 (third output bit) is the conversion result sign indi-  
cator (SIG). If VIN is >0, this bit is HIGH. If VIN is <0, this  
bit is LOW.  
Bit 20 (fourth output bit) is the most significant bit (MSB)  
of the result. This bit in conjunction with Bit 21 also  
provides the underrange or overrange indication. If both  
Bit 21 and Bit 20 are HIGH, the differential input voltage is  
above +FS. If both are LOW, the differential input voltage  
is below –FS.  
Offset Accuracy and Drift  
The function of these bits is summarized in Table 1.

tional to VCC (see Figure 4), several characteristics of this  
variation can be used to eliminate the effects. First, the  
variation with respect to supply voltage is linear. Second,  
the magnitude of the offset error decreases with de-  
creased supply voltage. Third, the offset error in micro-  
volts is almost independent with reference and therefore  
the offset in ppm is inverse proportional to reference  
voltage. As a result, by tying VCC to VREF, the variation with  
supply can be reduced, see Figure 6. The variation with  
supply is less than 15ppm over the entire 2.7V to 5.5V  
supply range.

to read the conversion result.

Serial Clock Input/Output (SCK)  
Chip Select Input (CS)  
The serial clock signal present on SCK (Pin 13) is used to  
synchronizethedatatransfer.Eachbitofdataisshiftedout  
the SDO pin on the falling edge of the serial clock.  
The active LOW chip select, CS (Pin 11), is used to test the  
conversionstatusandtoenablethedataoutputtransferas  
described in the previous sections.  
In the Internal SCK mode of operation, the SCK pin is an  
output and the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 create their own se-  
rial clock by dividing the internal conversion clock by 8. In  
the External SCK mode of operation, the SCK pin is used  
as input. The internal or external SCK mode is selected on  
power-up and then reselected every time a HIGH-to-LOW  
transition is detected at the CS pin. If SCK is HIGH or float-  
ing at power-up or during this transition, the converter  
enters the internal SCK mode. If SCK is LOW at power-up  
or during this transition, the converter enters the external  
SCK mode.  
In addition, the CS signal can be used to trigger a new  
conversion cycle before the entire serial data transfer has  
been completed. The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 will abort any  
serial data transfer in progress and start a new conversion  
cycle anytime a LOW-to-HIGH transition is detected at the  
CSpinaftertheconverterhasenteredthedataoutputstate  
(i.e., after the first rising edge of SCK occurs with  
CS = LOW).  
Finally, CS can be used to control the free-running modes  
of operation, see Serial Interface Timing Modes section.  
Grounding CS will force the ADC to continuously convert  
at the maximum output rate selected by FO.  
Serial Data Output (SDO)  
The serial data output pin, SDO (Pin 12), provides the  
result of the last conversion as a serial bit stream (MSB  
first) during the data output state. In addition, the SDO pin  
is used as an end of conversion indicator during the  
conversion and sleep states.  
SERIAL INTERFACE TIMING MODES  
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 3-wire interface is SPI and  
MICROWIRE compatible. This interface offers several  
flexible modes of operation. These include internal/exter-  
nal serial clock, 2- or 3-wire I/O, single cycle conversion  
and autostart. The following sections describe each of  
these serial interface timing modes in detail. In all these  
cases, the converter can use the internal oscillator (FO =  
LOW or FO = HIGH) or an external oscillator connected to  
the FO pin. Refer to Table 4 for a summary.  
When CS (Pin 11) is HIGH, the SDO driver is switched to  
a high impedance state. This allows sharing the serial  
interface with other devices. If CS is LOW during the  
convert or sleep state, SDO will output EOC. If CS is LOW  
duringtheconversionphase, theEOCbitappearsHIGHon  
the SDO pin. Once the conversion is complete, EOC goes  
LOW.

latched on the 24th rising edge of SCK. On the 24th falling  
edge of SCK, the device begins a new conversion. SDO  
goesHIGH(EOC=1)indicatingaconversionisinprogress.  
This timing mode uses an external serial clock to shift out  
the conversion result and a CS signal to monitor and  
control the state of the conversion cycle, see Figure 8.  
At the conclusion of the data cycle, CS may remain LOW  
and EOC monitored as an end-of-conversion interrupt.  
Alternatively, CS may be driven HIGH setting SDO to Hi-Z.  
As described above, CS may be pulled LOW at any time in  
order to monitor the conversion status.  
The serial clock mode is selected on the falling edge of CS.  
Toselecttheexternalserialclockmode,theserialclockpin  
(SCK) must be LOW during each CS falling edge.  
Typically, CS remains LOW during the data output state.  
However, the data output state may be aborted by pulling  
CS HIGH anytime between the first rising edge and the  
24th falling edge of SCK, see Figure 9. On the rising edge  
of CS, the device aborts the data output state and imme-  
diately initiates a new conversion. This is useful for sys-  
tems not requiring all 24 bits of output data, aborting an  
invalid conversion cycle or synchronizing the start of a  
conversion.  
The serial data output pin (SDO) is Hi-Z as long as CS is  
HIGH. At any time during the conversion cycle, CS may be  
pulled LOW in order to monitor the state of the converter.  
While CS is pulled LOW, EOC is output to the SDO pin.  
EOC = 1 while a conversion is in progress and EOC = 0 if  
the conversion is over. With CS HIGH, the device auto-  
matically enters the sleep state once the conversion is  
complete.  
When CS is low, the device enters the data output mode.  
The result is held in the internal static shift register until  
the first SCK rising edge is seen while CS is LOW. Data is  
shifted out the SDO pin on each falling edge of SCK. This  
enables external circuitry to latch the output on the rising  
edge of SCK. EOC can be latched on the first rising edge  
of SCK and the last bit of the conversion result can be  
External Serial Clock, 2-Wire I/O  
This timing mode utilizes a 2-wire serial I/O interface. The  
conversion result is shifted out of the device by an exter-

The external serial clock mode is selected at the end of the  
power-on reset (POR) cycle. The POR cycle is concluded  
approximately 1ms after VCC exceeds 2.2V. The level  
applied to SCK at this time determines if SCK is internal or  
external. SCK must be driven LOW prior to the end of POR  
in order to enter the external serial clock timing mode.  
Internal Serial Clock, Single Cycle Operation  
This timing mode uses an internal serial clock to shift out  
the conversion result and a CS signal to monitor and  
control the state of the conversion cycle, see Figure 11.  
In order to select the internal serial clock timing mode, the  
serial clock pin (SCK) must be floating (Hi-Z) or pulled  
HIGH prior to the falling edge of CS. The device will not  
enter the internal serial clock mode if SCK is driven LOW  
on the falling edge of CS. An internal weak pull-up resistor  
is active on the SCK pin during the falling edge of CS;  
therefore, the internal serial clock timing mode is auto-  
matically selected if SCK is not externally driven.  
Since CS is tied LOW, the end-of-conversion (EOC) can be  
continuously monitored at the SDO pin during the convert  
and sleep states. EOC may be used as an interrupt to an  
external controller indicating the conversion result is  
ready. EOC = 1 while the conversion is in progress and  
EOC = 0oncetheconversionisover. Onthefallingedgeof  
EOC, the conversion result is loaded into an internal static  
shift register. Data is shifted out the SDO pin on each  
falling edge of SCK enabling external circuitry to latch data  
on the rising edge of SCK. EOC can be latched on the first  
rising edge of SCK. On the 24th falling edge of SCK, SDO  
goes HIGH (EOC = 1) indicating a new conversion has  
begun.  
The serial data output pin (SDO) is Hi-Z as long as CS is  
HIGH. At any time during the conversion cycle, CS may be  
pulled LOW in order to monitor the state of the converter.  
Once CS is pulled LOW, SCK goes LOW and EOC is output  
to the SDO pin. EOC = 1 while a conversion is in progress  
and EOC = 0 if the conversion is over.

A similar situation may occur during the sleep state when  
CS is pulsed HIGH-LOW-HIGH in order to test the conver-  
sionstatus.Ifthedeviceisinthesleepstate(EOC=0),SCK  
will go LOW. Once CS goes HIGH (within the time period  
defined above as tEOCtest), the internal pull-up is activated.  
For a heavy capacitive load on the SCK pin, the internal  
pull-up may not be adequate to return SCK to a HIGH level  
before CS goes low again. This is not a concern under  
normal conditions where CS remains LOW after detecting  
EOC = 0. This situation is easily overcome by adding an  
external 10k pull-up resistor to the SCK pin.  
approximately 1ms after VCC exceeds 2.2V. An internal  
weak pull-up is active during the POR cycle; therefore, the  
internal serial clock timing mode is automatically selected  
if SCK is not externally driven LOW (if SCK is loaded such  
that the internal pull-up cannot pull the pin HIGH, the  
external SCK mode will be selected).  
During the conversion, the SCK and the serial data output  
pin (SDO) are HIGH (EOC = 1). Once the conversion is  
complete, SCK and SDO go LOW (EOC = 0) indicating the  
conversion has finished. The data output cycle begins on  
the first rising edge of SCK and ends after the 24th rising  
edge. Data is shifted out the SDO pin on each falling edge  
of SCK. The internally generated serial clock is output to  
the SCK pin. This signal may be used to shift the conver-  
sion result into external circuitry. EOC can be latched on  
the first rising edge of SCK and the last bit of the  
conversion result can be latched on the 24th rising edge  
of SCK. After the 24th rising edge, SDO goes HIGH (EOC

remains HIGH during the conversion.

PRESERVING THE CONVERTER ACCURACY  
converterpinthroughatraceshorterthan2.5inches.This  
problem becomes particularly difficult when shared con-  
trollinesareusedandmultiplereflectionsmayoccur. The  
solution is to carefully terminate all transmission lines  
close to their characteristic impedance.  
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 are designed to reduce as much  
as possible conversion result sensitivity to device  
decoupling, PCB layout, antialiasing circuits, line fre-  
quency perturbations and so on. Nevertheless, in order to  
preserve the extreme accuracy capability of this part, Parallel termination near the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 pins

will eliminate this problem but will increase the driver  
powerdissipation.Aseriesresistorbetween27Ωand56Ω  
placed near the driver or near the LTC2435/LTC2435-1  
pins will also eliminate this problem without additional  
powerdissipation. Theactualresistorvaluedependsupon  
the trace impedance and connection topology.  
Digital Signal Levels  
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 digital interface is easy to use.  
Its digital inputs (FO, CS and SCK in External SCK mode of  
operation)acceptstandardTTL/CMOSlogiclevelsandthe  
internalhysteresisreceiverscantolerateedgeratesasslow  
as 100μs. However, some considerations are required to  
takeadvantageoftheexceptionalaccuracyandlowsupply  
current of this converter.  
An alternate solution is to reduce the edge rate of the  
control signals. It should be noted that using very slow  
edges will increase the converter power supply current  
during the transition time. The multiple ground pins used  
in this package configuration, as well as the differential  
input and reference architecture, reduce substantially the  
converter’s sensitivity to ground currents.  
The digital output signals (SDO and SCK in Internal SCK  
mode of operation) are less of a concern because they are  
not generally active during conversion.  
Particular attention must be given to the connection of the  
FO signal when the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 are used with an  
external conversion clock. This clock is active during the  
conversion time and the normal mode rejection provided  
by the internal digital filter is not very high at this fre-  
quency. A normal mode signal of this frequency at the  
converter reference terminals may result in DC gain and  
INL errors. A normal mode signal of this frequency at the  
converter input terminals may result in a DC offset error.  
Such perturbations may occur due to asymmetric capaci-  
tivecouplingbetweentheFO signaltraceandtheconverter  
input and/or reference connection traces. An immediate  
solution is to maintain maximum possible separation  
between the FO signal trace and the input/reference sig-  
nals. When the FO signal is parallel terminated near the  
converter, substantial AC current is flowing in the loop  
formedbytheFO connectiontrace, theterminationandthe  
ground return path. Thus, perturbation signals may be  
inductively coupled into the converter input and/or refer-  
ence. In this situation, the user must reduce to a minimum  
the loop area for the FO signal as well as the loop area for  
the differential input and reference connections.  
While a digital input signal is in the range 0.5V to  
(VCC – 0.5V), the CMOS input receiver draws additional  
current from the power supply. It should be noted that,  
when any one of the digital input signals (FO, CS and SCK  
inExternalSCKmodeofoperation)iswithinthisrange,the  
LTC2435/LTC2435-1 power supply current may increase  
even if the signal in question is at a valid logic level. For  
micropower operation, it is recommended to drive all  
digital input signals to full CMOS levels [VIL < 0.4V and  
VOH > (VCC – 0.4V)].  
During the conversion period, the undershoot and/or  
overshootofafastdigitalsignalconnectedtotheLTC2435/  
LTC2435-1pinsmayseverelydisturbtheanalogtodigital  
conversion process. Undershoot and overshoot can oc-  
cur because of the impedance mismatch at the converter  
pin when the transition time of an external control signal  
is less than twice the propagation delay from the driver to  
LTC2435/LTC2435-1. For reference, on a regular FR-4  
board, signal propagation velocity is approximately  
183ps/inch for internal traces and 170ps/inch for surface  
traces. Thus, a driver generating a control signal with a  
minimum transition time of 1ns must be connected to the

Driving the Input and Reference  
The effect of this input dynamic current can be analyzed  
using the test circuit of Figure 15. The CPAR capacitor  
includes the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 pin capacitance (5pF  
typical) plus the capacitance of the test fixture used to  
obtain the results shown in Figures 16 and 17. A careful  
implementation can bring the total input capacitance (CIN  
+ CPAR) closer to 5pF thus achieving better performance  
than the one predicted by Figures 16 and 17. For simplic-  
ity, two distinct situations can be considered.  
The input and reference pins of the LTC2435/LTC2435-1  
convertersaredirectlyconnectedtoanetworkofsampling  
capacitors. Depending upon the relation between the  
differential input voltage and the differential reference  
voltage, these capacitors are switching between these  
four pins transferring small amounts of charge in the  
process. A simplified equivalent circuit is shown in  
Figure 14.  
For relatively small values of input capacitance (CIN  
<
For a simple approximation, the source impedance RS  
driving an analog input pin (IN+, IN, REF+ or REF) can be  
considered to form, together with RSW and CEQ (see  
Figure 14), a first order passive network with a time  
constant τ = (RS + RSW) • CEQ. The converter is able to  
sample the input signal with better than 1ppm accuracy if  
the sampling period is at least 14 times greater than the  
input circuit time constant τ. The sampling process on the  
four input analog pins is quasi-independent so each time  
constant should be considered by itself and, under worst-  
case circumstances, the errors may add.  
0.01μF), the voltage on the sampling capacitor settles  
almost completely and relatively large values for the  
source impedance result in only small errors. Such values  
for CIN will deteriorate the converter offset and gain  
performancewithoutsignificantbenefitsofsignalfiltering  
and the user is advised to avoid them. Nevertheless, when  
small values of CIN are unavoidably present as parasitics  
of input multiplexers, wires, connectors or sensors, the  
LTC2435/LTC2435-1canmaintaintheirexceptionalaccu-  
racy while operating with relative large values of source  
resistance as shown in Figures 16 and 17. These mea-  
sured results may be slightly different from the first order  
approximation suggested earlier because they include the  
effect of the actual second order input network together  
with the nonlinear settling process of the input amplifiers.  
For small CIN values, the settling on IN+ and INoccurs  
almost independently and there is little benefit in trying to  
match the source impedance for the two pins.  
Whenusingtheinternaloscillator(FO =LOWorHIGH), the  
LTC2435’sfront-endswitched-capacitornetworkisclocked  
at 76800Hz corresponding to a 13μs sampling period and  
the LTC2435-1’s front end is clocked at 69900Hz corre-  
sponding to 14.2μs. Thus, for settling errors of less than  
1ppm, the driving source impedance should be chosen  
such that τ ≤ 13μs/14 = 920ns (LTC2435) and τ <14.2μs/  
14 = 1.01μs (LTC2435-1). When an external oscillator of  
frequency fEOSC is used, the sampling period is 2/fEOSC  
Larger values of input capacitors (CIN > 0.01μF) may be  
required in certain configurations for antialiasing or gen-  
eral input signal filtering. Such capacitors will average the  
input sampling charge and the external source resistance  
will see a quasi constant input differential impedance.  
When FO = LOW (internal oscillator and 60Hz notch), the  
typical differential input resistance is 22MΩ (LTC2435) or  
24MΩ (LTC2435-1) which will generate a +FS gain error  
of approximately 0.023ppm (LTC2435) or 0.021ppm  
(LTC2435-1) for each ohm of source resistance driving  
IN+ or IN. For the LTC2435, when FO = HIGH (internal  
oscillator and 50Hz notch), the typical differential input  
resistance is 26MΩ which will generate a +FS gain error of  
approximately 0.019ppm for each ohm of source resis-  
and, for a settling error of less than 1ppm, τ ≤ 0.14/fEOSC  
.
Input Current  
If complete settling occurs on the input, conversion re-  
sults will be unaffected by the dynamic input current. An  
incomplete settling of the input signal sampling process  
may result in gain and offset errors, but it will not degrade  
theINLperformanceoftheconverter. Figure14showsthe  
mathematical expressions for the average bias currents  
flowing through the IN+ and INpins as a result of the  
sampling charge transfers when integrated over a sub-  
stantial time period (longer than 64 internal clock cycles).

forms a full-scale common mode input signal into a  
differential mode input signal of 0.02ppm. When FO is  
driven by an external oscillator with a frequency fEOSC  
,
every 1Ω mismatch in source impedance transforms a  
full-scale common mode input signal into a differential  
mode input signal of 0.15 • 10–6 • fEOSCppm. Figure 20  
shows the typical offset error due to input common mode  
voltage for various values of source resistance imbalance  
between the IN+ and INpins when large CIN values are  
used.  
In addition to this gain error, an offset error term may also  
appear. The offset error is proportional to the mismatch  
between the source impedance driving the two input pins  
IN+ and INand with the difference between the input and  
reference common mode voltages. While the input drive  
circuit nonzero source impedance combined with the  
converter average input current will not degrade the INL  
performance,indirectdistortionmayresultfromthemodu-  
lation of the offset error by the common mode component  
of the input signal. Thus, when using large CIN capacitor  
values, itisadvisabletocarefullymatchthesourceimped-  
ance seen by the IN+ and INpins. When FO = LOW  
(internal oscillator and 60Hz notch), every 1Ω mismatch  
in source impedance transforms a full-scale common  
mode input signal into a differential mode input signal of  
0.023ppm. When FO = HIGH (internal oscillator and 50Hz  
If possible, it is desirable to operate with the input signal  
common mode voltage very close to the reference signal  
common mode voltage as is the case in the ratiometric  
measurement of a symmetric bridge. This configuration  
eliminates the offset error caused by mismatched source  
impedances.

accuracy of the internal clock over the entire temperature

clock. When relatively stable resistors (50ppm/°C) are

typical differential reference resistance is 15.6MΩ which  
will generate a +FS gain error of approximately 0.032ppm  
for each ohm of source resistance driving REF+ or REF.  
When FO = HIGH (internal oscillator and 50Hz notch), the  
typical differential reference resistance is 18.7MΩ which  
will generate a +FS gain error of approximately 0.027ppm  
for each ohm of source resistance driving REF+ or REF.  
For the LTC2435-1, the typical differential reference resis-  
tance is 17.1MΩ which will generate a +FS gain error of  
approximately 0.029ppm for each ohm of source resis-  
tance driving REF+ or REF. When FO is driven by an  
externaloscillatorwithafrequencyfEOSC (externalconver-  
sion clock operation), the typical differential reference  
resistance is 2.4 • 1012/fEOSCΩ and each ohm of source  
resistance driving REF+ or REFwill result in  
0.21 • 10–6 • fEOSCppm +FS gain error. The effect of the  
source resistance on the two reference pins is additive  
with respect to this gain error. The typical +FS and –FS  
errors for various combinations of source resistance seen  
by the REF+ and REFpins and external capacitance CREF  
connected to these pins are shown in Figures 21, 22, 23  
and 24.  
In addition to the input sampling charge, the input ESD  
protection diodes have a temperature dependent leakage  
current. This current, nominally 1nA ( 10nA max), results  
inasmalloffsetshift. A100Ωsourceresistancewillcreate

differential reference pins REF+ and REFtransferring  
small amount of charge to and from the external driving  
circuits thus producing a dynamic reference current. This  
current does not change the converter offset, but it may

gain or the INL error. The user is thus advised to minimize  
the combined source impedance driving the REF+ and  
REFpins rather than to try to match it.

The magnitude of the dynamic reference current depends  
upon the size of the very stable internal sampling capaci-  
tors and upon the accuracy of the converter sampling  
clock. The accuracy of the internal clock over the entire  
temperature and power supply range is typical better than  
0.5%. Such a specification can also be easily achieved by

Output Data Rate  
Third, the internal analog circuits are optimized for normal  
operation; therefore an increase in the frequency of the  
external oscillator will start to decrease the effectiveness  
of the internal analog circuits. This will result in a progres-  
sive degradation in the converter accuracy and linearity.  
Typicalmeasuredperformancecurvesforoutputdatarates  
up to 200 readings per second are shown in Figures 26 to  
33. The degradation becomes more obvious above output  
data rate of 150Hz, which corresponds to an external os-  
cillatorof1.536MHz.Inordertoobtainthehighestpossible  
level of accuracy from this converter at output data rates  
above 150 readings per second, the user is advised to  
maximize the power supply voltage used and to limit the  
maximum ambient operating temperature. In certain cir-  
cumstances, a reduction of the differential reference volt-  
age may be beneficial.  
When using its internal oscillator, the LTC2435 can pro-  
duce up to 15 readings per second with a notch frequency  
of 60Hz (FO = LOW) and 12.5 readings per second with a  
notch frequency of 50Hz (FO = HIGH) and the LTC2435-1  
can produce up to 13.6 readings per second with FO =  
LOW. The actual output data rate will depend upon the  
length of the sleep and data output phases which are  
controlled by the user and which can be made insignifi-  
cantly short. When operated with an external conversion  
clock(FOconnectedtoanexternaloscillator),theLTC2435/  
LTC2435-1 output data rate can be increased as desired.  
The duration of the conversion phase is 10278/fEOSC. If  
fEOSC = 153600Hz, the converter behaves as if the internal  
oscillator is used and the notch is set at 60Hz. There is no  
significant difference in the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 perfor-  
mance between these two operation modes.

An increase in fEOSC over the nominal 153600Hz will  
translate into a proportional increase in the maximum

First, a change in fEOSC will result in a proportional change  
in the internal notch position and in a reduction of the  
converter differential mode rejection at the power line  
frequency. In many applications, the subsequent perfor-  
mance degradation can be substantially reduced by rely-  
ing upon the LTC2435/LTC2435-1’s exceptional common  
mode rejection and by carefully eliminating common  
mode to differential mode conversion sources in the input  
circuit. The user should avoid single-ended input filters  
and should maintain a very high degree of matching and  
symmetry in the circuits driving the IN+ and INpins.

Second, the increase in clock frequency will increase  
proportionally the amount of sampling charge transferred  
through the input and the reference pins. If large external  
input and/or reference capacitors (CIN, CREF) are used, the  
previous section provides formulae for evaluating the  
effect of the source resistance upon the converter perfor-  
mance for any value of fEOSC. If small external input and/  
or reference capacitors (CIN, CREF) are used, the effect of  
the external source resistance upon the LTC2435/

Normal Mode Rejection and Antialiasing  
Through FO connection, the LTC2435 provides better than  
110dB input differential mode rejection at 50Hz or 60Hz  
2%. While for the LTC2435-1, it has a notch frequency of  
about 55Hz with better than 70db rejection over 48Hz to  
62.4Hz, which covers both 50Hz 2% and 60Hz 2%. In  
order to achieve better rejection over the range of 48Hz to  
62.4Hz,arunningaveragecanbeperformed.Byaveraging  
two consecutive LTC2435-1 readings, a sinc1 notch is  
combined with the sinc4 digital filter, yielding the fre-  
quency response shown in Figure 37. The averaging  
operation still keeps the output rate with the following  
algorithm:  
One of the advantages delta-sigma ADCs offer over con-  
ventional ADCs is on-chip digital filtering. Combined with  
a large oversampling ratio, the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 sig-  
nificantly simplifies antialiasing filter requirements.  
The sinc4 digital filter provides greater than 120dB normal  
mode rejection at all frequencies except DC and integer  
multiples of the modulator sampling frequency (fS). Inde-  
pendent of the operating mode, fS = 256 • fN = 1024 •  
f
OUTMAX wherefN isthenotchfrequencyandfOUTMAX isthe  
maximumoutputdatarate. Intheinternaloscillatormode,  
for the LTC2435, FS = 12800Hz with a 50Hz notch setting  
and fS = 15360Hz with a 60Hz notch setting. For the  
LTC2435-1, fS = 13980Hz (FO = LOW). In the external  
oscillator mode, fS = fEOSC/10.  
Result 1 = average (sample 0, sample 1)  
Result 2 = average (sample 1, sample 2)  
Result n = average (sample n-1, sample n)  
The normal mode rejection performance is shown in  
Figure 34. The regions of low rejection occurring at  
integer multiples of fS have a very narrow bandwidth.  
Magnified details of the normal mode rejection curves are  
shown in Figure 35 (rejection near DC) and Figure 36  
(rejection at fS = 256fN) where fN represents the notch  
frequency. For the LTC2435, the bandwidth is 13.6Hz  
(FO = GND) and 11.4Hz (FO = VCC). The Bandwidth is  
12.4Hz for the LTC2435-1 (FO = GND).  
The user can expect to achieve in practice this level of  
performance using the internal oscillator as it is demon-  
stratedbyFigures38to40.Typicalmeasuredvaluesofthe  
normalmoderejectionoftheLTC2435-1operatingwithan  
internal oscillator and a 54.6Hz notch setting are shown in  
Figure38and39superimposedoverthetheoreticalcalcu-  
lated curve. The same normal mode rejection perfor-  
mance is obtained for the LTC2435 with the frequency  
scaled to have the notch frequency at 60Hz (FO = GND) or  
50Hz (FO = VCC).

As a result of these remarkable normal mode specifica-  
tions, minimal (if any) antialias filtering is required in front  
of the LTC2435/LTC2435-1. If passive RC components  
are placed in front of the LTC2435/LTC2435-1, the input  
dynamic current should be considered (see Input Current  
section). In cases where large effective RC time constants  
are used, an external buffer amplifier may be required to  
minimize the effects of dynamic input current.  
posed over the more traditional normal mode rejection  
ratio results obtained with a 5V peak-to-peak (full scale)  
input signal. The same performance is obtained for the  
LTC2435 with the frequency scaled to have the notch fre-  
quency at 60Hz (FO = GND) or 50Hz (FO = VCC). It is clear  
that the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 rejection performance is  
maintained with no compromises in this extreme situa-  
tion. When operating with large input signal levels, the  
user must observe that such signals do not violate the  
device absolute maximum ratings.  
Traditionalhighorderdelta-sigmamodulators,whilepro-  
viding very good linearity and resolution, suffer from  
potential instabilities at large input signal levels. The pro-  
prietary architecture used for the LTC2435/LTC2435-1  
third order modulator resolves this problem and guaran-  
tees a predictable stable behavior at input signal levels of  
up to 150% of full scale. In many industrial applications,  
it is not uncommon to have to measure microvolt level  
signals superimposed over volt level perturbations and  
LTC2435/LTC2435-1 are eminently suited for such tasks.  
When the perturbation is differential, the specification of  
interestisthenormalmoderejectionforlargeinputsignal

LTC2435-1 have a full-scale differential input range of 5V

Sample Driver for LTC2435/LTC2435-1 SPI Interface  
The listing in Figure 43 is a data collection program for the  
LTC2435/LTC2435-1usingthePIC16F73microcontroller.  
The microcontroller is configured to transfer data through  
the SPI serial interface. Figure 42 shows the connection.  
The LT1180A is a dual RS232 driver/receiver pair with  
integral charge pump that generates RS232 voltage levels  
from a single 5V supply.  
Figure 41 shows the use of an LTC2435/LTC2435-1 with  
a differential multiplexer. This is an inexpensive multi-  
plexer that will contribute some error due to leakage if  
used directly with the output from the bridge, or if  
resistors are inserted as a protection mechanism from  
overvoltage.Althoughthebridgeoutputmaybewithinthe  
input range of the A/D and multiplexer in normal opera-  
tion, some thought should be given to fault conditions  
that could result in full excitation voltage at the inputs to  
the multiplexer or ADC. The use of amplification prior to  
the multiplexer will largely eliminate errors associated  
with channel leakage developing error voltages in the  
source impedance.  
The program begins by declaring variables and allocating  
memory locations to store the 24-bit conversion result.  
The main sequence starts with pulling CS LOW. It then  
waits for SDO to go LOW to start reading data. Three bytes  
are read to the MCU and the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 will  
automatically start a new conversion. CS is also raised to  
HIGH to ensure that a new conversion is started. The  
collected data are sent out through the serial port at 57600  
baud. This can be captured with a terminal program and  
analyzed with a spreadsheet using the HEX2DEC function.  
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 have a very simple serial inter-  
face that makes interfacing to microprocessors and  
microcontrollers very easy.

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO  
Correlated Double Sampling with the  
LTC2435/LTC2435-1  
low, determined by the ESR and inductance of the capaci-  
tors above 10MHz. The conversion spikes that remain at  
the output of other bipolar amplifiers pass through the  
feedback network and often overdrive the input of the  
amplifier, producing envelope detection. RFI may also be  
present on the signal lines from the bridge; C3 and C4  
provide RFI suppression at the signal input, as well as  
suppressing transient voltages during bridge commuta-  
tion.  
TheTypicalApplicationonthebackpageofthisdatasheet  
shows the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 in a correlated double  
sampling circuit that achieves a noise floor of under  
100nV. In this scheme, the polarity of the bridge is  
alternatedeveryothersampleandtheresultistheaverage  
of a pair of samples of opposite sign. This technique has  
the benefit of canceling any fixed DC error components in  
the bridge, amplifiers and the converter, as these will  
alternate in polarity relative to the signal. Offset voltages  
and currents, thermocouple voltages at junctions of dis-  
similarmetalsandthelowerfrequencycomponentsof1/f  
noise are virtually eliminated.  
The wideband noise density of the LT1219 is 33nV/Hz,  
seemingly much noisier than the lowest noise amplifiers.  
However, in the region just below the 1/f corner that is not  
well suppressed by the correlated double sampling, the  
average noise density is similar to the noise density of  
many low noise amplifiers. If the amplifier is rolled off  
below about 1500Hz, the total noise bandwidth is deter-  
mined by the converter’s Sinc4 filter at about 12Hz. The  
use of correlated double sampling involves averaging  
even numbers of samples; hence, in this situation, two  
samples would be averaged to give an input-referred  
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 have the virtue of being able to  
digitize an input voltage that is outside the range defined  
by the reference, thereby providing a simple means to  
implement a ratiometric example of correlated double  
sampling.  
Thiscircuitusesabipolaramplifier(LT1219—U1andU2)  
that has neither the lowest noise nor the highest gain. It  
does, however, have an output stage that can effectively  
suppress the conversion spikes from the LTC2435/  
LTC2435-1. The LT1219 is a C-LoadTM stable amplifier  
that, bydesign, needsatleast0.1μFoutputcapacitanceto  
remain stable. The 0.1μF ceramic capacitors at the out-  
puts(C1andC2)shouldbeplacedandroutedtominimize  
lead inductance or their effectiveness in preventing enve-  
lope detection in the input stage will be reduced. Alterna-  
tively, several smaller capacitors could be placed so that  
leadinductanceisfurtherreduced. Thisisaconsideration  
because the frequency content of the conversion spikes  
extends to 50MHz or more. The output impedance of  
most op amps increases dramatically with frequency but  
the effective output impedance of the LT1219 remains  
noise level of about 100nVRMS  
.
Level shift transistors Q4 and Q5 are included to allow  
excitation voltages up to the maximum recommended for  
the bridge. In the case shown, if a 10V supply is used, the  
excitation voltage to the bridge is 8.5V and the outputs of  
the bridge are above the supply rail of the ADC. U1 and U2  
are also used to produce a level shift to bring the outputs  
within the input range of the converter. This instrumenta-  
tion amplifier topology does not require well-matched  
resistors in order to produce good CMRR. However, the  
use of R2 requires that R3 and R6 match well, as the  
commonmodegainisapproximately12dB. Ifthebridge  
is composed of four equal 350Ω resistors, the differential  
component associated with mismatch of R3 and R6 is  
nearly constant with either polarity of excitation and, as  
with offset, its contribution is canceled.
