The MCP3221 has a single-ended analog input (AIN).
For proper conversion results, the voltage at the AIN
pin must be kept between

Consequently, a larger source impedance increases
the offset error, gain error and integral linearity errors of
the conversion. Ideally, the impedance of the signal
source should be near zero. This is achievable with an
operational amplifier, such as the MCP6022, which has
a closed-loop output impedance of tens of ohms.
The number of devices connected to the bus is limited
only by the maximum bus capacitance of 400 pF. A
possible configuration using multiple devices is shown
in Figure 6-3.
