ADC

Application Scope

The ADC24 module is a single channel 16 (24) bit Analog-to-Digital Converter module with a galvanically isolated serial interface. The module is the perfect choice for maintenance, testing, integration and troubleshooting applications that require maximum accuracy, channel isolation, and a high data throughput.

Features

The ADC24 features the following components and properties:

  • 24-bit (raw) / 16-bit (corrected) high-precision delta-sigma ADC IC
  • I2C bus for sampling the current module temperature via the built-in LM 92 temperature sensor
  • I2C EEPROM for writing module-specific data to memory (max. 2 kB) to be read and analyzed by an application
  • Variable master clock supporting internal filtering
  • 1 Watt thermal resistor for quickly obtaining operating temperature after power-on
  • Heating is controlled either externally via pin #36 or internally via the programmable LM92 temperature sensor. When the module temperature reaches 80° C, the heating will be switched off automatically. The automatic switch-off temperature can be set to a different value via the temperature sensor IC.
  • Serial interface (2 wire)
  • Rugged metal case with a pin output layout according to the DIL 40 standard (reduced pin count)
