The MCP3422, MCP3423 and MCP3424 devices

(MCP3422/3/4) are the low noise and high accuracy

18-Bit delta-sigma analog-to-digital (¦¤¦² A/D) converter

family members of the MCP342X series from Microchip

Technology Inc. These devices can convert analog

inputs to digital codes with up to 18 bits of resolution.

Typical Applications

? Portable Instrumentation and Consumer Goods

? Temperature Sensing with RTD, Thermistor, and

Thermocouple

? Bridge Sensing for Pressure, Strain, and Force

? Weigh Scales

? Battery Fuel Gauges

? Factory Automation Equipment

The on-board 2.048V reference voltage enables an

input range of ¡À 2.048V differentially (full scale

range = 4.096V/PGA).

These devices can output analog-to-digital conversion

results at rates of 3.75, 15, 60, or 240 samples per

second depending on the user controllable

configuration bit settings using the two-wire I2C serial

interface. During each conversion, the device

calibrates offset and gain errors automatically. This

provides accurate conversion results from conversion

to conversion over variations in temperature and power

supply fluctuation.

The user can select the PGA gain of x1, x2, x4, or x8

before the analog-to-digital conversion takes place.

This allows the MCP3422/3/4 devices to convert a very

weak input signal with high resolution.

The MCP3422/3/4 devices have two conversion

modes: (a) One-Shot Conversion mode and (b)

Continuous Conversion mode. In One-Shot conversion

mode, the device performs a single conversion and

enters a low current standby mode automatically until it

receives another conversion command. This reduces

current consumption greatly during idle periods. In

Continuous conversion mode, the conversion takes

place continuously at the set conversion speed. The

device updates its output buffer with the most recent

conversion data.

The devices operate from a single 2.7V to 5.5V power

supply and have a two-wire I2C compatible serial

interface for a standard (100 kHz), fast (400 kHz), or

high-speed (3.4 MHz) mode.

The I2C address bits for the MCP3423 and MCP3424

are selected by using two external I2C address

selection pins (Adr0 and Adr1). The user can configure

the device to one of eight available addresses by

connecting these two address selection pins to VDD,

VSS or float. The I2C address bits of the MCP3422 are

programmed at the factory during production.

MCP3422/3/4

The MCP3422 is available in 8-pin SOIC, DFN, and

MSOP packages. The MCP3423 is available in 10-pin

DFN, and MSOP packages. The MCP3424 is available

in 14-pin SOIC and TSSOP packages.

The MCP3422 and MCP3423 devices have two

differential input channels and the MCP3424 has fourdifferential input channels. All electrical properties of

these three devices are the same except the

differences in the number of input channels and I2C

address bit selection options.
