PGA & ADC Enabling
Depending on the application objectives, the user may enable or bypass each PGA stage. This is done
according to the word ENABLE and the coding given in Table 4. To reduce power dissipation, the ADC can also
be inactivated while idle.
PGA1
The first stage can have a buffer function (unity gain) or provide a gain of 10 (see Table 5). The voltage V
the output of PGA1 is:
where GD
PGA2
The second PGA has a finer gain and offset tuning capability, as shown in Table 6 and Table 7. The voltage V
at the output of PGA2 is given by:
where GD
words PGA2_GAIN[1:0] and PGA2_OFFSET[3:0].
PGA3
The finest gain and offset tuning is performed with the third and last PGA stage, according to the coding of
Table 8 and Table 9. The output of PGA3 is also the input of the ADC. Thus, similarly to PGA2, we find that the
voltage entering the ADC is given by:
where GD
PGA3_GAIN[6:0] and PGA3_OFFSET[6:0]. To remain within the signal compliance of the PGA stages, the
condition:
must be verified.
Finally, combining equations 5 to 7 for the three PGA stages, the input voltage V
