LTC2401/LTC2402
Converter Operation Cycle
The LTC2401/LTC2402 are low power, delta-sigma ana-
log-to-digital converters with an easy to use 3-wire serial
interface. Their operation is simple and made up of three
states. The converter operating cycle begins with the
conversion, followed by a low power sleep state and
concluded with the data output (see Figure 1). The 3-wire
interface consists of serial data output (SDO), a serial
clock (SCK) and a chip select (CS).
Initially, the LTC2401/LTC2402 perform a conversion.
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. The part remains in
the sleep state as long as CS is logic 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 begins outputting the
conversion result. 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) 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 32 bits are read
out of the ADC or when CS is brought HIGH. The device
automatically initiates a new conversion cycle and the
cycle repeats.

Through timing control of the CS and SCK pins, the
LTC2401/LTC2402 offer several flexible modes of opera-
tion (internal or external SCK and free-running conversion
modes). These various modes do not require program-
ming configuration registers; moreover, they do not dis-
turb the cyclic operation described above. These modes of
operation are described in detail in the Serial Interface
Timing Modes section.
Conversion Clock
A major advantage delta-sigma converters offer over
conventional type converters is an on-chip digital filter
(commonly known as Sinc or Comb filter). For high
resolution, low frequency applications, this filter is typi-
cally designed to reject line frequencies of 50Hz or 60Hz
plus their harmonics. In order to reject these frequencies
in excess of 110dB, a highly accurate conversion clock is
required. The LTC2401/LTC2402 incorporate an on-chip
highly accurate oscillator. This eliminates the need for
external frequency setting components such as crystals or
oscillators. Clocked by the on-chip oscillator, the LTC2401/
LTC2402 reject line frequencies (50Hz or 60Hz 2%) a
minimum of 110dB.
Ease of Use
The LTC2401/LTC2402 data output has no latency, filter
settling or redundant data associated with the conversion
cycle. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the
conversion and the output data. Therefore, multiplexing
an analog input voltage is easy.
The LTC2401/LTC2402 perform offset and full-scale cali-
brations every conversion cycle. This calibration is trans-
parent to the user and has no effect on the cyclic operation
described above. The advantage of continuous calibration
is extreme stability of offset and full-scale readings with
respect to time, supply voltage change and temperature
drift.
Power-Up Sequence
The LTC2401/LTC2402 automatically enter an internal
reset state when the power supply voltage V
below approximately 2.2V. This feature guarantees the
