The ADS1231 is a precision, 24-bit analog-to-digital  
converter (ADC). With an onboard low-noise  
amplifier, onboard oscillator, precision third-order  
24-bit delta-sigma (ΔΣ) modulator, and bridge power  
switch, the ADS1231 provides a complete front-end  
solution for bridge sensor applications including  
weigh scales, strain gauges, and load cells.

The low-noise amplifier has a gain of 128, supporting  
a full-scale differential input of ±19.5mV. The ΔΣ ADC  
has 24-bit resolution and is comprised of a third-order  
modulator and fourth-order digital filter. Two data  
rates are supported: 10SPS (with both 50Hz and  
60Hz rejection) and 80SPS. The ADS1231 can be  
put in a low-power standby mode or shut off  
completely in power-down mode.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with  
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.  
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more  
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

NOISE PERFORMANCE  
The ADS1231 offers outstanding noise performance. Table 1 summarizes the typical noise performance with  
inputs shorted externally for different data rates and voltage reference values.  
The RMS and Peak-to-Peak noise are referred to the input. The effective number of bits (ENOB) is defined as:  
ENOB = ln (FSR/RMS noise)/ln(2)  
The Noise-Free Bits are defined as:  
Noise-Free Bits = ln (FSR/Peak-to-Peak Noise)/ln(2)  
Where:  
FSR (Full-Scale Range) = VREF/Gain.

OVERVIEW  
The ADS1231 is a precision, 24-bit ADC that includes  
low-noise PGA, internal oscillator, third-order  
CAP  
a
delta-sigma (ΔΣ) modulator, and fourth-order digital  
filter. The ADS1231 provides a complete front-end  
solution for bridge sensor applications such as weigh  
scales, strain gauges, and pressure sensors.

Data can be output at 10SPS for excellent 50Hz and  
60Hz rejection, or at 80SPS when higher speeds are  
needed. The ADS1231 is easy to configure, and all  
digital control is accomplished through dedicated  
pins; there are no registers to program. A simple  
two-wire serial interface retrieves the data.

Figure 13. Simplified Diagram of the Amplifier  
External Capacitor  
LOW-NOISE AMPLIFIER  
The ADS1231 features a low-drift, low-noise amplifier  
that provides a complete front-end solution for bridge  
sensors. A simplified diagram of the amplifier is  
shown in Figure 13. It consists of two  
chopper-stabilized amplifiers (A1 and A2) and three  
accurately matched resistors (R1, RF1, and RF2) that  
construct a differential front-end stage with a gain of  
128, followed by gain stage A3 (Gain = 1). The inputs  
are equipped with an EMI filter, as shown in  
Figure 13. The cutoff frequency of the EMI filter is  
20MHz. By using AVDD as the reference input, the  
bipolar input ranges from –19.5mV to +19.5mV. The  
inputs of the ADS1231 are protected with internal  
diodes connected to the power-supply rails. These  
diodes clamp the applied signal to prevent it from  
damaging the input circuitry.  
An external capacitor (CEXT) across the two ADS1231  
CAP pins combines with the internal resistor RINT  
(on-chip) to create  
a
low-pass filter. The  
recommended value for CEXT is 0.1mF which provides  
a corner frequency of 720Hz. This low-pass filter  
serves two purposes. First, the input signal is  
bandlimited to prevent aliasing by the ADC and to  
filter out the high-frequency noise. Second, it  
attenuates the chopping residue from the amplifier to  
improve temperature drift performance. NPO or C0G  
capacitors  
are  
recommended.  
For  
optimal  
performance, place the external capacitor very close  
to the CAP pins.

VOLTAGE REFERENCE INPUTS  
(VREFP, VREFN)  
LOW-SIDE POWER SWITCH (SW)  
The ADS1231 incorporates an internal switch for use  
with an external bridge sensor, as shown in  
Figure 15. The switch can be used in a return path for  
the bridge power. By opening the switch, power  
dissipation in the bridge is eliminated.  
The voltage reference used by the modulator is  
generated from the voltage difference between  
VREFP and VREFN: VREF = VREFP – VREFN. The  
reference inputs use a structure similar to that of the  
analog inputs. In order to increase the reference input  
impedance, switching buffer circuitry is used to  
reduce the input equivalent capacitance. The  
reference drift and noise impact ADC performance. In  
order to achieve best results, pay close attention to  
The switch is controlled by the ADS1231 conversion  
status. During normal conversions, the switch is  
closed (the SW pin is connected to GND). During  
standby or power-down modes, the switch is opened  
(the SW pin is high impedance). When using the  
switch, it is recommended that the negative reference  
input (VREFN) be connected directly to the bridge  
ground terminal, as shown in Figure 15 for best  
performance.  
the reference noise and drift specifications.  
A
simplified diagram of the circuitry on the reference  
inputs is shown in Figure 14. The switches and  
capacitors can be modeled approximately using an

FREQUENCY RESPONSE

Data Rate = 10SPS  
The ADS1231 uses a sinc4 digital filter with the  
frequency response. The frequency response repeats  
at multiples of the modulator sampling frequency of  
76.8kHz. The overall response is that of a low-pass  
filter with a –3dB cutoff frequency of 3.32Hz with the  
SPEED pin tied low (10SPS data rate) and 11.64Hz  
with the SPEED pin tied high (80SPS data rate).

To help see the response at lower frequencies,  
Figure 16(a) illustrates the nominal response out to  
100Hz, when the data rate = 10SPS. Notice that  
signals at multiples of 10Hz are rejected, and  
therefore simultaneous rejection of 50Hz and 60Hz is  
achieved.

The benefit of using a sinc4 filter is that every  
frequency notch has four zeros on the same location.  
This response, combined with the low drift internal  
oscillator, provides an excellent normal-mode  
rejection of line-cycle interference.

Fast changes in the input signal require time to settle.  
For example, an external multiplexer in front of the  
ADS1231 can generate abrupt changes in input  
voltage by simply switching the multiplexer input  
channels. These sorts of changes in the input require  
four data conversion cycles to settle. When  
continuously converting, five readings may be  
necessary in order to settle the data. If the change in  
input occurs in the middle of the first conversion, four  
more full conversions of the fully-settled input are  
required to obtain fully-settled data. Discard the first

DATA FORMAT  
The ADS1231 outputs 24 bits of data in binary twos  
complement format. The least significant bit (LSB)  
has a weight of (0.5VREF/128)(223 – 1). The positive  
full-scale input produces an output code of 7FFFFFh  
and the negative full-scale input produces an output  
code of 800000h. The output clips at these codes for  
signals exceeding full-scale. Table 3 summarizes the  
ideal output codes for different input signals.

DATA RATE  
INPUT SIGNAL VIN  
The ADS1231 data rate is set by the SPEED pin, as  
shown in Table 2. When SPEED is low, the data rate  
is nominally 10SPS. This data rate provides the  
lowest noise, and also has excellent rejection of both  
50Hz and 60Hz line-cycle interference. For  
applications requiring fast data rates, setting SPEED  
high selects a data rate of nominally 80SPS.

ADS1231  
www.ti.com  
SBAS414C JULY 2009REVISED DECEMBER 2010  
DATA READY/DATA OUTPUT (DRDY/DOUT)  
DATA RETRIEVAL  
This digital output pin serves two purposes. First, it  
indicates when new data are ready by going low.  
Afterwards, on the first rising edge of SCLK, the  
DRDY/DOUT pin changes function and begins  
outputting the conversion data, most significant bit  
(MSB) first. Data are shifted out on each subsequent  
SCLK rising edge. After all 24 bits have been  
retrieved, the pin can be forced high with an  
additional SCLK. It then stays high until new data are  
ready. This configuration is useful when polling on the  
status of DRDY/DOUT to determine when to begin  
data retrieval.  
The ADS1231 continuously converts the analog input  
signal. To retrieve data, wait until DRDY/DOUT goes  
low, as shown in Figure 18. After DRDY/DOUT goes  
low, begin shifting out the data by applying SCLKs.  
Data are shifted out MSB first. It is not required to  
shift out all 24 bits of data, but the data must be  
retrieved before new data are updated (within tCONV  
)
or else the data will be overwritten. Avoid data  
retrieval during the update period (tUPDATE). If only 24  
SCLKs have been applied, DRDY/DOUT remains at  
the state of the last bit shifted out until it is taken high  
(see tUPDATE), indicating that new data are being  
updated. To avoid having DRDY/DOUT remain in the  
state of the last bit, the 25th SCLK can be applied to  
force DRDY/DOUT high, as shown in Figure 19. This  
technique is useful when a host controlling the device  
is polling DRDY/DOUT to determine when data are  
ready.  
SERIAL CLOCK INPUT (SCLK)  
This digital input shifts serial data out with each rising  
edge. This input has built-in hysteresis, but care  
should still be taken to ensure a clean signal. Glitches  
or slow-rising signals can cause unwanted additional  
shifting. For this reason, it is best to make sure the  
rise and fall times of SCLK are both less than 50ns.

STANDBY MODE  
When tSTANDBY has passed with SCLK held high,  
Standby mode activates. DRDY/DOUT stays high  
when Standby mode begins. SCLK must remain high  
to stay in Standby mode. To exit Standby mode  
(wakeup), set SCLK low. The first data after exiting  
Standby mode are valid.  
Standby  
mode  
dramatically  
reduces  
power  
consumption by shutting down most of the circuitry.  
To enter Standby mode, simply hold SCLK high after  
DRDY/DOUT goes low; see Figure 20. Standby mode  
can be initiated at any time during readback; it is not  
necessary to retrieve all 24 bits of data beforehand.
