DescripTion
FeaTures
The LTC®2435/LTC2435-1 are 2.7V to 5.5V micropower
20-bit differential ∆∑ analog to digital converters with
integrated oscillator, 3ppm INL and 0.8ppm RMS noise.
They use delta-sigma technology and provide single
cycle 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%, or it can be driven by an external oscillator
for a user defined rejection frequency. The LTC2435-1
can be configured for better than 87dB input differential
mode rejection 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 2: All voltage values are with respect to GND.
Note 3: VCC = 2.7 to 5.5V unless otherwise specified.
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 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.
Note 11: The external oscillator is connected to the FO pin. The external
oscillator frequency, fEOSC, is expressed in kHz.
Note 12: The converter uses the internal oscillator.

CONVERTER OPERATION
Thereisnolatencyintheconversionresult.Thedataoutput
corresponds to the conversion just performed. This result
is shifted out on the serial data out pin (SDO) under the
control of the serial clock (SCK). Data is updated on the
falling edge of SCK allowing the user to reliably latch 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 automatically
initiates a new conversion and the cycle repeats.
Converter Operation Cycle
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 are low power, delta-sigma
analog-to-digital converters with an easy to use 3-wire
serial interface (see Figure 1). Their operation is made
up of three states. The converter operating cycle begins
with the conversion, followed by the sleep state and ends
with the data output (see Figure 2). The 3-wire interface
consists of serial data output (SDO), serial clock (SCK)
and chip select (CS).
Through timing control of the CS and SCK pins, the
LTC2435/LTC2435-1 offer several flexible modes of
operation (internal or external SCK and free-running
conversion modes). These various modes do not require
programming configuration registers; moreover, they do
not disturb the cyclic operation described above. These
modes 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
typicallydesignedtorejectlinefrequenciesof50Hzor60Hz
plus their harmonics. The filter rejection performance 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.

Once the conversion is complete, the device enters the
sleep state. While in this sleep state, power consumption
is reduced by an order of magnitude if CS is HIGH. The
part 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
HIGHbeforethefirstrisingedgeofSCK,thedevicereturns
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.

Output Data Format
ated 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 (the differential input voltage is below –FS) or
an overrange condition (the differential input voltage is
above +FS).
In order to shift the conversion result out of the device,
CS must first be driven LOW. EOC is seen at the SDO pin
of the device once CS is pulled LOW. EOC changes real
time from 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
rising edge of SCK. Bit 22 is shifted out of the device on
the 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.
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.

Offset Accuracy and Drift
The function of these bits is summarized in Table 1.
Unlike the LTC2430 and most of the LTC2400 family, the
LTC2435/LTC2435-1 do not perform an offset calibration
every cycle. The reason for this is to increase the data
output rate while maintaining line frequency rejection.

Serial Clock Input/Output (SCK)
Chip Select Input (CS)
The serial clock signal present on SCK (Pin 13) is used to
synchronize the data transfer. Each bit of data is shifted
out the SDO pin on the falling edge of the serial clock.
The active LOW chip select, CS (Pin 11), is used to test the
conversion status and to enable the data output transfer
as 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
serial 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 floating 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 conver-
sion cycle anytime a LOW-to-HIGH transition is detected
at the CS pin after the converter has entered the data
output state (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 MI-
CROWIREcompatible.Thisinterfaceoffersseveralflexible
modes of operation. These include internal/external serial
clock, 2- or 3-wire I/O, single cycle conversion and auto-
start. The following sections describe each of these serial
interface timing modes in detail. In all these cases, the
When CS (Pin 11) is HIGH, the SDO driver is switched

External Serial Clock, Single Cycle Operation
(SPI/MICROWIRE Compatible)
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 latched on the 24th rising edge of SCK. On the 24th
falling edge of SCK, the device begins a new conversion.
SDO goes HIGH (EOC = 1) indicating a conversion is in
progress.
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.
The serial clock mode is selected on the falling edge of
CS. To select the external serial clock mode, the serial
clock pin (SCK) must be LOW during each CS falling edge.
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 con-
verter. 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
automatically enters the sleep state once the conversion
is complete.
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.

Typically, CS remains LOW during the data output state.
However, the data output state may be aborted by pull-
ing 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
immediately initiates a new conversion. This is useful for
systems not requiring all 24 bits of output data, aborting
an invalid conversion cycle or synchronizing the start of
a conversion.

External Serial Clock, 2-Wire I/O
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
externalcontrollerindicatingtheconversionresultisready.
EOC = 1 while the conversion is in progress and EOC = 0
once the conversion is over. On the falling edge of 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.
This timing mode utilizes a 2-wire serial I/O interface.
The conversion result is shifted out of the device by an
externally generated serial clock (SCK) signal, see Figure
10. CS may be permanently tied to ground, simplifying
the user interface or isolation barrier.
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 V exceeds 2.2V. The level ap-
CC
plied 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
When testing EOC, if the conversion is complete (EOC =
0), the device will exit the sleep state and enter the data
output state. In order to allow the device to return to the
sleep state, CS must be pulled HIGH before the first ris-
ing edge of SCK. In the internal SCK timing mode, SCK
goes HIGH and the device begins outputting data at time
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 resis-
tor is active on the SCK pin during the falling edge of CS;
therefore,theinternalserialclocktimingmodeisautomati-
cally selected if SCK is not externally driven.

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.

Whenever SCK is LOW, the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 internal

timing mode. By adding an external 10k pull-up resistor

pin through a trace shorter than 2.5 inches. This problem
becomes particularly difficult when shared control lines
are used and multiple reflections may occur. The solu-
tion 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 decou-
pling, PCB layout, anti-aliasing circuits, line frequency
perturbationsandsoon.Nevertheless,inordertopreserve
the extreme accuracy capability of this part, some simple
precautions are desirable.
ParallelterminationneartheLTC2435/LTC2435-1pinswill
eliminate this problem but will increase the driver power
dissipation.Aseriesresistorbetween27Ωand56Ωplaced
near the driver or near the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 pins will
also eliminate this problem without additional power dis-
sipation. The actual resistor value depends upon the trace
impedance and connection topology.
Digital Signal Levels
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 digital interface is easy to use.
Its digital inputs (F , CS and SCK in External SCK mode
O
of operation) accept standard TTL/CMOS logic levels and
the internal hysteresis receivers can tolerate edge rates
as slow as 100µs. However, some considerations are
required to take advantage of the exceptional accuracy
and low supply 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

(V – 0.5V), the CMOS input receiver draws additional
CC
with an external conversion clock. This clock is active
during the conversion time and the normal mode rejec-
tion provided by the internal digital filter is not very high
at this frequency. 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
current from the power supply. It should be noted that,
when any one of the digital input signals (F , CS and SCK
O
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 [V < 0.4V and

Duringtheconversionperiod,theundershootand/orover-
shoot of a fast digital signal connected to the LTC2435/
LTC2435-1pinsmayseverelydisturbtheanalogtodigital
conversionprocess.Undershootandovershootcanoccur
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,signalpropagationvelocityisapproximately183ps/
inch for internal traces and 170ps/inch for surface traces.
Thus, a driver generating a controlsignalwitha minimum
transition time of 1ns must be connected to the converter
converter input and/or reference connection traces. An
immediate solution is to maintain maximum possible
separation between the F signal trace and the input/ref-
O
erence signals. When the F signal is parallel terminated
O
near the converter, substantial AC current is flowing in the
loop formed by the F connection trace, the termination

and the ground return path. Thus, perturbation signals
may be inductively coupled into the converter input and/
or reference. In this situation, the user must reduce to a
minimum the loop area for the F signal as well as the loop
O
area for the differential input and reference connections.

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.
(C1 and C2) should be placed and routed to minimize lead
inductance or their effectiveness in preventing envelope
detection in the input stage will be reduced. Alternatively,
several smaller capacitors could be placed so that lead
inductance is further reduced. This is a consideration
because the frequency content of the conversion spikes
extendsto50MHzormore.Theoutputimpedanceofmost
op amps increases dramatically with frequency but the
effective output impedance of the LT1219 remains low,
determined by the ESR and inductance of the capacitors
above 10MHz. The conversion spikes that remain at the
output of other bipolar amplifiers pass through the feed-
backnetworkandoftenoverdrivetheinputoftheamplifier,
producingenvelopedetection.RFImayalsobepresenton
the signal lines from the bridge; C3 and C4 provide RFI
suppression at the signal input, as well as suppressing
transient voltages during bridge commutation.
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
collecteddataaresentout through theserialportat57600
baud. This can be captured with a terminal program and
analyzed with a spreadsheet using the HEX2DEC function.
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
determined by the converter’s SINC4 filter at about 12Hz.

Correlated Double Sampling with the
LTC2435/LTC2435-1
The Typical Application on the back page of this data
sheet 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-
similar metals and the lower frequency components of
1/f noise are virtually eliminated.
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 instrumentation 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 common mode gain is approximately –12dB.
If the bridge 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.

The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 have the virtue of being able to
digitizean input voltagethatisoutsidetherangedefinedby
the reference, thereby providing a simple means to imple-
ment a ratiometric example of correlated double sampling.
This circuit uses a bipolar amplifier (LT1219—U1 and
U2) that has neither the lowest noise nor the highest gain.
It does, however, have an output stage that can effec-
tively suppress the conversion spikes from the LTC2435/
LTC2435-1. The LT1219 is a C-Load™ stable amplifier
