The LTC®2495 is a 16-channel (eight differential), 16-bit,
No Latency ΔΣTM ADC with Easy Drive technology and a
2-wire, I2C interface. The patented sampling scheme eliminates dynamic input current errors and the shortcomings
of on-chip buffering through automatic cancellation of
differential input current. This allows large external source
impedances and rail-to-rail input signals to be directly
digitized while maintaining exceptional DC accuracy.
The LTC2495 includes programmable gain, a high accuracy
temperature sensor, and an integrated oscillator. This device
can be configured to measure an external signal (from combinations of 16 analog input channels operating in singleended or differential modes) or its internal temperature
sensor. The integrated temperature sensor offers 1/2°C
resolution and 2°C absolute accuracy. The LTC2495 can
be configured to provide a programmable gain from 1 to
256 in 8 steps.
The LTC2495 allows a wide common mode input range
(0V to VCC), independent of the reference voltage. Any
combination of single-ended or differential inputs can
be selected and the first conversion, after a new channel
is selected, is valid. Access to the multiplexer output enables optional external amplifiers to be shared between all
analog inputs and auto calibration continuously removes
their associated offset and drift.

PIN FUNCTIONS
GND (Pins 1, 4, 6, 31, 32, 33, 34): Ground. Multiple
ground pins internally connected for optimum ground current flow and VCC decoupling. Connect each one of these
pins to a common ground plane through a low impedance
connection. All seven pins must be connected to ground
for proper operation.
SCL (Pin 2): Serial Clock Pin of the I2C Interface. The
LTC2495 can only act as a slave and the SCL pin only accepts an external serial clock. Data is shifted into the SDA
pin on the rising edges of the SCL clock and output through
the SDA pin on the falling edges of the SCL clock.
SDA (Pin 3): Bidirectional Serial Data Line of the I2C Interface. In the transmitter mode (Read), the conversion result
is output through the SDA pin, while in the receiver mode
(Write), the device channel select and configuration bits
are input through the SDA pin. The pin is high impedance
during the data input mode and is an open drain output
(requires an appropriate pull-up device to VCC) during the
data output mode.
NC (Pin 5): No Connect. This pin can be left floating or
tied to GND.
COM (Pin 7): The Common Negative Input (IN –) for All
Single-Ended Multiplexer Configurations. The voltage on
CH0-CH15 and COM pins can have any value between
GND – 0.3V to VCC + 0.3V. Within these limits, the two
selected inputs (IN+ and IN– ) provide a bipolar input range
VIN = (IN+ – IN–) from –0.5 • VREF/Gain to 0.5 • VREF /Gain.
Outside this input range, the converter produces unique
over-range and under-range output codes.
CH0 to CH15 (Pin 8-Pin 23): Analog Inputs. May be programmed for single-ended or differential mode.
MUXOUTP (Pin 24): Positive Multiplexer Output. Connect
to the input of external buffer/amplifier or short directly
to ADCINP.
ADCINP (Pin 25): Positive ADC Input. Connect to the
output of a buffer/amplifier driven by MUXOUTP or short
directly to MUXOUTP.

LTC2495
PIN FUNCTIONS
ADCINN (Pin 26): Negative ADC Input. Connect to the
output of a buffer/amplifier driven by MUXOUTN or short
directly to MUXOUTN.
MUXOUTN (Pin 27): Negative Multiplexer Output. Connect to the input of an external buffer/amplifier or short
directly to ADCINN.
VCC (Pin 28): Positive Supply Voltage. Bypass to GND with
a 10µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic
capacitor as close to the part as possible.
REF+, REF – (Pin 29, Pin 30): Differential Reference Input.
The voltage on these pins can have any value between
GND and VCC as long as the reference positive input,
REF+, remains more positive than the negative reference
input, REF–, by at least 0.1V. The differential voltage (VREF
= REF+ – REF –) sets the full-scale range (–0.5 • VREF/Gain
to 0.5 • VREF/Gain) for all input channels.
FO (Pin 35): Frequency Control Pin. Digital input that
controls the internal conversion clock rate. When FO is
connected to GND, the converter uses its internal oscillator running at 307.2kHz. The conversion clock may
also be overridden by driving the FO pin with an external
clock in order to change the output rate and the digital
filter rejection null.
CA0, CA1, CA2 (Pins 36, 37, 38): Chip Address Control
Pins. These pins are configured as a three-state (LOW,
HIGH, Floating) address control bits for the device I2C
address.
Exposed Pad (Pin 39): Ground. This pin is ground and
must be soldered to the PCB ground plane. For prototyping
purposes, this pin may remain floating.

LTC2495
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
CONVERTER OPERATION
Converter Operation Cycle
The LTC2495 is a multichannel, low power, delta-sigma,
analog-to-digital converter with a 2-wire, I2C interface.
Its operation is made up of four states (see Figure 1).
The converter operating cycle begins with the conversion, followed by the sleep state, and ends with the data
input/output cycle.
Initially, at power-up, the LTC2495 performs a conversion.
Once the conversion is complete, the device enters the
sleep state. While in the sleep state, power consumption is
reduced by two orders of magnitude. The part remains in
the sleep state as long it is not addressed for a read/write
operation. The conversion result is held indefinitely in a
static shift register while the part is in the sleep state.
The device will not acknowledge an external request during the conversion state. After a conversion is finished,
the device is ready to accept a read/write request. Once
the LTC2495 is addressed for a read operation, the device
begins outputting the conversion result under the control
of the serial clock (SCL). There is no latency in the conversion result. The data output is 24 bits long and contains a
16-bit plus sign conversion result. Data is updated on the
falling edges of SCL allowing the user to reliably latch data
on the rising edge of SCL. A new conversion is initiated
by a stop condition following a valid write operation or an
incomplete read operation. The conversion automatically
begins at the conclusion of a complete read cycle (all 24
bits read out of the device).
Ease of Use
The LTC2495 data output has no latency, filter settling
delay, or redundant data associated with the conversion
cycle. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the
conversion and the output data. Therefore, multiplexing
multiple analog inputs is straightforward. Each conversion, immediately following a newly selected input or
mode, is valid and accurate to the full specifications of
the device.
The LTC2495 automatically performs offset and full-scale
calibration every conversion cycle independent of the input
channel selected. This calibration is transparent to the user

and has no effect on the operation cycle described above.
The advantage of continuous calibration is extreme stability
of offset and full-scale readings with respect to time, supply
voltage variation, input channel, and temperature drift.
Easy Drive Input Current Cancellation
The LTC2495 combines a high precision, delta-sigma ADC
with an automatic, differential, input current cancellation
front end. A proprietary front end passive sampling network
transparently removes the differential input current. This
enables external RC networks and high impedance sensors to directly interface to the LTC2495 without external
amplifiers. The remaining common mode input current
is eliminated by either balancing the differential input impedances or setting the common mode input equal to the
common mode reference (see the Automatic Differential
Input Current Cancellation section). This unique architecture does not require on-chip buffers, thereby enabling
signals to swing beyond ground and VCC. Moreover, the
2495f
12
LTC2495
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
cancellation does not interfere with the transparent offset
and full-scale auto-calibration and the absolute accuracy
(full scale + offset + linearity + drift) is maintained even
with external RC networks.
Power-Up Sequence
The LTC2495 automatically enters an internal reset state
when the power supply voltage, VCC, drops below a
threshold of approximately 2.0V. This feature guarantees
the integrity of the conversion result and input channel
selection.
When VCC rises above this threshold, the converter creates
an internal power-on-reset (POR) signal with a duration
of approximately 4ms. The POR signal clears all internal
registers. The conversion immediately following a POR
cycle is performed on the input channels IN+ = CH0 and
IN – = CH1 with simultaneous 50Hz/60Hz rejection, 1x
output rate, and gain = 1. The first conversion following a
POR cycle is accurate within the specification of the device
if the power supply voltage is restored to (2.7V to 5.5V)
before the end of the POR interval. A new input channel,
rejection mode, speed mode, temperature selection or
gain can be programmed into the device during this first
data input/output cycle.
Input Voltage Range
The analog inputs are truly differential with an absolute,
common mode range for the CH0-CH15 and COM input pins
extending from GND – 0.3V to VCC + 0.3V. Outside these
limits, the ESD protection devices begin to turn on and the
errors due to input leakage current increase rapidly. Within
these limits, the LTC2495 converts the bipolar differential
input signal VIN = IN+ – IN– (where IN+ and IN – are the
selected input channels), from – FS = – 0.5 • VREF/Gain
to + FS = 0.5 • VREF/Gain where VREF = REF+ – REF–.
Outside this range, the converter indicates the overrange
or the underrange condition using distinct output codes
(see Table 1).
Signals applied to the input (CH0-CH15, COM) may extend
300mV below ground and above VCC. In order to limit
any fault current, resistors of up to 5k may be added in
series with the input. The effect of series resistance on
the converter accuracy can be evaluated from the curves
presented in the Input Current/Reference Current sections.
In addition, series resistors will introduce a temperature
dependent error due to input leakage current. A 1nA input
leakage current will develop a 1ppm offset error on a 5k
resistor if VREF = 5V. This error has a very strong temperature dependency.
Reference Voltage Range
MUXOUT/ADCIN
This converter accepts a truly differential external reference
voltage. The absolute/common mode voltage range for the
REF+ and REF – pins covers the entire operating range of
the device (GND to VCC). For correct converter operation,
VREF must be positive (REF+ > REF –).
The outputs of the multiplexer (MUXOUTP/MUXOUTN) and
the inputs to the ADC (ADCINP/ADCINN) can be used to
perform input signal conditioning on any of the selected
input channels or simply shorted together for direct
digitization. If an external amplifier is used, the LTC2495
automatically calibrates both the offset and drift of this
circuit and the Easy Drive sampling scheme enables a
wide variety of amplifiers to be used.
The LTC2495 differential reference input range is 0.1V to
VCC. For the simplest operation, REF+ can be shorted to
VCC and REF – can be shorted to GND. The converter output noise is determined by the thermal noise of the front
end circuits and, as such, its value in nanovolts is nearly
constant with reference voltage. A decrease in reference
voltage will not significantly improve the converter’s effective resolution. On the other hand, a decreased reference
will improve the converter’s overall INL performance.
In order to achieve optimum performance, if an external
amplifier is not used, short these pins directly together
(ADCINP to MUXOUTP and ADCINN to MUXOUTN) and
minimize their capacitance to ground.

LTC2495
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
I2C INTERFACE
The LTC2495 communicates through an I2C interface. The
I2C interface is a 2-wire, open-drain interface supporting
multiple devices and multiple masters on a single bus. The
connected devices can only pull the data line (SDA) low
and can never drive it high. SDA is required to be externally
connected to the supply through a pull-up resistor. When
the data line is not being driven, it is high. Data on the
I2C bus can be transferred at rates up to 100kbits/s in the
standard mode and up to 400kbits/s in the fast mode.
Each device on the I2C bus is recognized by a unique
address stored in that device and can operate either as a
transmitter or receiver, depending on the function of the
device. In addition to transmitters and receivers, devices
can also be considered as masters or slaves when performing data transfers. A master is the device which initiates a
data transfer on the bus and generates the clock signals
to permit that transfer. Devices addressed by the master
are considered a slave.
The LTC2495 can only be addressed as a slave. Once
addressed, it can receive configuration bits (channel
selection, rejection mode, speed mode) or transmit the
last conversion result. The serial clock line, SCL, is always
an input to the LTC2495 and the serial data line SDA is
bidirectional. The device supports the standard mode and
the fast mode for data transfer speeds up to 400kbits/s.
Figure 2 shows the definition of the I2C timing.
The Start and Stop Conditions
A Start (S) condition is generated by transitioning SDA from
high to low while SCL is high. The bus is considered to be
busy after the Start condition. When the data transfer is
finished, a Stop (P) condition is generated by transitioning
SDA from low to high while SCL is high. The bus is free
after a Stop is generated. Start and Stop conditions are
always generated by the master.
When the bus is in use, it stays busy if a Repeated Start
(Sr) is generated instead of a Stop condition. The repeated
Start timing is functionally identical to the Start and is
used for writing and reading from the device before the
initiation of a new conversion.
Data Transferring
After the Start condition, the I2C bus is busy and data
transfer can begin between the master and the addressed
slave. Data is transferred over the bus in groups of nine
bits, one byte followed by one acknowledge (ACK) bit.
The master releases the SDA line during the ninth SCL
clock cycle. The slave device can issue an ACK by pulling
SDA low or issue a Not Acknowledge (NAK) by leaving
the SDA line high impedance (the external pull-up resistor
will hold the line high). Change of data only occurs while
the clock line (SCL) is low.
DATA FORMAT
After a Start condition, the master sends a 7-bit address
followed by a read/write (R/W) bit. The R/W bit is 1 for a
read request and 0 for a write request. If the 7-bit address
matches the hard wired LTC2495’s address (one of 27
pin-selectable addresses) the device is selected. When
the device is addressed during the conversion state, it will
not acknowledge R/W requests and will issue a NAK by
leaving the SDA line high. If the conversion is complete,
the LTC2495 issues an ACK by pulling the SDA line low.

LTC2495
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The LTC2495 has two registers. The output register (24 bits
long) contains the last conversion result. The input register
(16 bits long) sets the input channel, selects the temperature
sensor, rejection mode, gain and speed mode.
over and under range conditions (see Table 2). If both bits
are HIGH, the differential input voltage is equal to or above
+FS. If both bits are set low, the input voltage is below –FS.
The function of these bits is summarized in Table 2. The
16 bits following the MSB bit are the conversion result in
binary, two’s complement format. The remaining six bits
are always 0.
DATA OUTPUT FORMAT
The output register contains the last conversion result.
After each conversion is completed, the device automatically enters the sleep state where the supply current is
reduced to 1µA. When the LTC2495 is addressed for a read
operation, it acknowledges (by pulling SDA low) and acts
as a transmitter. The master/receiver can read up to three
bytes from the LTC2495. After a complete read operation
(3 bytes), a new conversion is initiated. The device will
NAK subsequent read operations while a conversion is
being performed.
As long as the voltage on the selected input channels (IN+
and IN–) remains between –0.3V and VCC + 0.3V (absolute
maximum operating range) a conversion result is generated for any differential input voltage VIN from –FS = –0.5
• VREF/Gain to +FS = 0.5 • VREF /Gain. For differential input
voltages greater than +FS, the conversion result is clamped
to the value corresponding to +FS. For differential input
voltages below –FS, the conversion result is clamped to
the value –FS – 1LSB.
The data output stream is 24 bits long and is shifted out
on the falling edges of SCL (see Figure 3a). The first bit is
the conversion result sign bit (SIG) (see Tables 1 and 2).
This bit is high if VIN ≥ 0 and low if VIN < 0 (where VIN
corresponds to the selected input signal IN+ – IN–). The
second bit is the most significant bit (MSB) of the result.
The first two bits (SIG and MSB) can be used to indicate

LTC2495
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
INPUT DATA FORMAT
If the first three bits are 000 or 100, the following data is ignored (don’t care) and the previously selected input channel
and configuration remain valid for the next conversion.
The serial input word to the LTC2495 is 16 bits long and
is written into the device input register in two 8-bit words.
The first word (SGL, ODD, A2, A1, A0) is used to select
the input channel. The second word of data (IM, FA, FB,
SPD, GS2, GS1, GS0) is used to select the frequency
rejection, speed mode (1x, 2x), temperature measurement, and gain.
If the first three bits shifted into the device are 101, then
the next five bits select the input channel for the next
conversion cycle (see Table 3).
The first input bit (SGL) following the 101 sequence determines if the input selection is differential (SGL = 0) or
single-ended (SGL = 1). For SGL = 0, two adjacent channels can be selected to form a differential input. For SGL
= 1, one of 16 channels is selected as the positive input.
The negative input is COM for all single-ended operations.
The remaining four bits (ODD, A2, A1, A0) determine
which channel(s) is/are selected and the polarity (for a
differential input).
After power-up, the device initiates an internal reset cycle
which sets the input channel to CH0-CH1 (IN+ = CH0, IN– =
CH1), the frequency rejection to simultaneous 50Hz/60Hz,
and 1x output rate (auto-calibration enabled), and gain = 1.
The first conversion automatically begins at power-up using
this default configuration. Once the conversion is complete,
up to two words may be written into the device.
The first three bits of the first input word consist of two
preamble bits and one enable bit. Valid settings for these
three bits are 000, 100, and 101. Other combinations
should be avoided.

LTC2495
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The first bit of the second word is the enable bit for the
conversion configuration (EN2). If this bit is set to 0, then
the next conversion is performed using the previously
selected converter configuration.
If the EN2 bit is set to a 1, a new configuration can be
loaded into the device (see Table 4). The first bit (IM) is
used to select the internal temperature sensor. If IM = 1,
the following conversion will be performed on the internal
temperature sensor rather than the selected input channel.
The next two bits (FA and FB) are used to set the rejection
frequency. The next bit (SPD) is used to select either the
1x output rate if SPD = 0 (auto-calibration is enabled and
the offset is continuously calibrated and removed from
the final conversion result) or the 2x output rate if SPD =
1 (offset calibration disabled, multiplexing output rates up
to 15Hz with no latency). The final three bits (GS2, GS1,
GS0) are used to set the gain. When IM = 1 (temperature
measurement) SPD, GS2, GS1 and GS0 will be ignored
and the device will operate in 1x mode.
The configuration remains valid until a new input word
with EN = 1 (the first three bits are 101 for the first word)
and EN2 = 1 (for the second write byte) is shifted into
the device.
Rejection Mode (FA, FB)
The LTC2495 includes a high accuracy on-chip oscillator
with no required external components. Coupled with an
integrated fourth order digital low pass filter, the LTC2495
rejects line frequency noise. In the default mode, the
LTC2495 simultaneously rejects 50Hz and 60Hz by at least
87dB. If more rejection is required, the LTC2495 can be
configured to reject 50Hz or 60Hz to better than 110dB.

LTC2495
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Speed Mode (SPD)
Temperature Sensor
Every conversion cycle, two conversions are combined
to remove the offset (default mode). This result is free
from offset and drift. In applications where the offset is
not critical, the auto-calibration feature can be disabled
with the benefit of twice the output rate.
The LTC2495 includes an integrated temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is selected by setting
IM = 1. During temperature readings, MUXOUTN/
MUXOUTP remains connected to the selected input channel. The ADC internally connects to the temperature sensor
and performs a conversion.
While operating in the 2x mode (SPD = 1), the linearity
and full-scale errors are unchanged from the 1x mode
performance. In both the 1x and 2x mode there is no
latency. This enables input steps or multiplexer changes
to settle in a single conversion cycle, easing system overhead and increasing the effective conversion rate. During
temperature measurements, the 1x mode is always used
independent of the value of SPD.
The digital output is proportional to the absolute temperature of the device. This feature allows the converter
to perform cold junction compensation for external
thermocouples or continuously remove the temperature
effects of external sensors.
The internal temperature sensor output is 28mV at 27°C
(300°K), with a slope of 93.5µV/°C independent of VREF
(see Figures 4 and 5). Slope calibration is not required if
the reference voltage (VREF) is known. A 5V reference has
a slope of 2.45 LSBs16/°C. The temperature is calculated
from the output code (where DATAOUT16 is the decimal
representation of the 16-bit result) for a 5V reference using
the following formula:
GAIN (GS2, GS1, GS0)
The input referred gain of the LTC2495 is adjustable
from 1 to 256 (see Tables 5a and 5b). With a gain of 1,
the differential input range is ±VREF/2 and the common
mode input range is rail-to-rail. As the gain is increased,
the differential input range is reduced to ±0.5 • VREF/Gain
but the common mode input range remains rail-to-rail.
As the differential gain is increased, low level voltages
are digitized with greater resolution. At a gain of 256, the
LTC2495 digitizes an input signal range of ±9.76mV with
over 16,000 counts.

LTC2495
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
If a different value of VREF is used, the temperature
output is:
DATAOUT16
TK =
in Kelvin
(0 . 49 • VREF )
All Kelvin temperature readings can be converted to TC
(ºC) using the fundamental equation:
If the value of VREF is not known, the slope is determined
by measuring the temperature sensor at a known temperature TN (in K) and using the following formula:
When the LTC2495 finishes a conversion, it automatically
enters the sleep state. Once in the sleep state, the device is
ready for a read operation. After the device acknowledges
a read request, the device exits the sleep state and enters
the data output state. The data output state concludes
and the LTC2495 starts a new conversion once a Stop
condition is issued by the master or all 24 bits of data are
read out of the device.
SLOPE =
DATAOUT16

This value of slope can be used to calculate further temperature readings using:
TK =
DATAOUT16
SLOPE
Initiating a New Conversion
During the data read cycle, a Stop command may be issued
by the master controller in order to start a new conversion
and abort the data transfer. This Stop command must be
issued during the ninth clock cycle of a byte read when
the bus is free (the ACK/NAK cycle).

Synchronizing Multiple LTC2495s with a Global
Address Call
In applications where several LTC2495s (or other I2C
delta-sigma ADCs from Linear Technology Corporation)
are used on the same I2C bus, all converters can be synchronized through the use of a global address call. Prior
to issuing the global address call, all converters must have
completed a conversion cycle. The master then issues a
Start, followed by the global address 1110111, and a write
request. All converters will be selected and acknowledge
the request. The master then sends a write byte (optional)
followed by the Stop command. This will update the channel selection (optional) converter configuration (optional)
and simultaneously initiate a start of conversion for all
delta-sigma ADCs on the bus (see Figure 10). In order
to synchronize multiple converters without changing
the channel or configuration, a Stop may be issued after
acknowledgement of the global write command. Global
read commands are not allowed and the converters will
NAK a global read request.
Driving the Input and Reference
The input and reference pins of the LTC2495 are connected
directly to a switched capacitor network. Depending on
the relationship between the differential input voltage and
the differential reference voltage, these capacitors are
switched between these four pins. Each time a capacitor
is switched between two of these pins, a small amount
of charge is transferred. A simplified equivalent circuit is
shown in Figure 11.
When using the LTC2495’s internal oscillator, the input
capacitor array is switched at 123kHz. The effect of the
charge transfer depends on the circuitry driving the

input/reference pins. If the total external RC time constant
is less than 580ns the errors introduced by the sampling
process are negligible since complete settling occurs.
Typically, the reference inputs are driven from a low
impedance source. In this case, complete settling occurs
even with large external bypass capacitors. The inputs
(CH0-CH15, COM), on the other hand, are typically driven
from larger source resistances. Source resistances up
to 10k may interface directly to the LTC2495 and settle
completely; however, the addition of external capacitors
at the input terminals in order to filter unwanted noise
(antialiasing) results in incomplete settling.
The LTC2495 offers two methods of removing these
errors. The first is automatic differential input current
cancellation (Easy Drive) and the second is the insertion
of an external buffer between the MUXOUT and ADCIN
pins, thus isolating the input switching from the source
resistance.
Automatic Differential Input Current Cancellation
In applications where the sensor output impedance is
low (up to 10kΩ with no external bypass capacitor or up
to 500Ω with 0.001µF bypass), complete settling of the
input occurs. In this case, no errors are introduced and
direct digitization is possible.
For many applications, the sensor output impedance
combined with external input bypass capacitors produces
RC time constants much greater than the 580ns required
for 1ppm accuracy. For example, a 10kΩ bridge driving a
0.1µF capacitor has a time constant an order of magnitude
greater than the required maximum.
The LTC2495 uses a proprietary switching algorithm
that forces the average differential input current to zero
independent of external settling errors. This allows direct
digitization of high impedance sensors without the need
for buffers.
The switching algorithm forces the average input current
on the positive input (IIN+) to be equal to the average input
current on the negative input (IIN–). Over the complete
conversion cycle, the average differential input current
(IIN+ – IIN–) is zero. While the differential input current is
zero, the common mode input current (IIN+ + IIN–)/2 is
proportional to the difference between the common mode
input voltage (VIN(CM)) and the common mode reference
voltage (VREF(CM)).
2495f

LTC2495
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
are rejected by the large CMRR of the LTC2495, leading
to little degradation in accuracy. Mismatches in source
impedances lead to gain errors proportional to the difference between the common mode input and common
mode reference. A 1% mismatch in 1k source resistances
lead to gain errors on the order of 15ppm. Based on the
stability of the internal sampling capacitors and the accuracy of the internal oscillator, a one-time calibration will
remove this error.
In applications where the input common mode voltage is
equal to the reference common mode voltage, as in the
case of a balanced bridge, both the differential and common mode input current are zero. The accuracy of the
converter is not compromised by settling errors.
In applications where the input common mode voltage is
constant but different from the reference common mode
voltage, the differential input current remains zero while
the common mode input current is proportional to the
difference between VIN(CM) and VREF(CM). For a reference
common mode voltage of 2.5V and an input common mode
of 1.5V, the common mode input current is approximately
0.74µA (in simultaneous 50Hz/60Hz rejection mode). This
common mode input current does not degrade the accuracy
if the source impedances tied to IN+ and IN– are matched.
Mismatches in source impedance lead to a fixed offset
error but do not effect the linearity or full-scale reading.
A 1% mismatch in a 1k source resistance leads to a 74µV
shift in offset voltage.
In addition to the input sampling current, the input ESD
protection diodes have a temperature dependent leakage
current. This current, nominally 1nA (±10nA max), results
in a small offset shift. A 1k source resistance will create a
1µV typical and a 10µV maximum offset voltage.
Automatic Offset Calibration of External Buffers/
Amplifiers
In addition to the Easy Drive input current cancellation,
the LTC2495 allows an external amplifier to be inserted
between the multiplexer output and the ADC input (see
Figure 12). This is useful in applications where balanced
source impedances are not possible. One pair of external
buffers/amplifiers can be shared between all 17 analog
inputs. The LTC2495 performs an internal offset calibration
In applications where the common mode input voltage
varies as a function of the input signal level (single-ended
type sensors), the common mode input current varies
proportionally with input voltage. For the case of balanced
input impedances, the common mode input current effects

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
every conversion cycle in order to remove the offset and
drift of the ADC. This calibration is performed through a
combination of front end switching and digital processing. Since the external amplifier is placed between the
multiplexer and the ADC, it is inside this correction loop.
This results in automatic offset correction and offset drift
removal of the external amplifier.
The LTC6078 is an excellent amplifier for this function.
It operates with supply voltages as low as 2.7V and its
⎯ ⎯z. The Easy Drive input technology
noise level is 18nV/√H
of the LTC2495 enables an RC network to be added directly
to the output of the LTC6078. The capacitor reduces the
magnitude of the current spikes seen at the input to the
ADC and the resistor isolates the capacitor load from the
op-amp output enabling stable operation. The LTC6078
can also be biased at supply rails beyond those used by
the LTC2495. This allows the external sensor to swing railto-rail (–0.3V to VCC + 0.3V) without the need of external
level shift circuitry.
Reference Current
Similar to the analog inputs, the LTC2495 samples the
differential reference pins (REF+ and REF–) transferring
small amounts of charge to and from these pins, thus
producing a dynamic reference current. If incomplete settling occurs (as a function the reference source resistance
and reference bypass capacitance) linearity and gain errors
are introduced.

In addition to the reference sampling charge, the reference
ESD protection diodes have a temperature dependent leakage current. This leakage current, nominally 1nA (±10nA
max) results in a small gain error. A 100Ω reference
resistance will create a 0.5µV full-scale error.

In cases where large bypass capacitors are required on
the reference inputs (CREF > 0.01µF), full-scale and linearity errors are proportional to the value of the reference
resistance. Every ohm of reference resistance produces
a full-scale error of approximately 0.5ppm (while operating in simultaneous 50Hz/60Hz mode (see Figures 15
and 16)). If the input common mode voltage is equal to
the reference common mode voltage, a linearity error of
approximately 0.67ppm per 100Ω of reference resistance
results (see Figure 17). In applications where the input
and reference common mode voltages are different, the
errors increase. A 1V difference in between common mode
input and common mode reference results in a 6.7ppm
INL error for every 100Ω of reference resistance.

For relatively small values of external reference capacitance

One of the advantages delta-sigma ADCs offer over
conventional ADCs is on-chip digital filtering. Combined
with a large oversample ratio, the LTC2495 significantly
simplifies antialiasing filter requirements. Additionally,
the input current cancellation feature allows external low
pass filtering without degrading the DC performance of
the device.
The SINC4 digital filter provides excellent normal mode
rejection at all frequencies except DC and integer multiples
of the modulator sampling frequency (fS) (see Figures
18 and 19). The modulator sampling frequency is fS =
15,360Hz while operating with its internal oscillator and
fS = fEOSC/20 when operating with an external oscillator
of frequency fEOSC .
When using the internal oscillator, the LTC2495 is designed
to reject line frequencies. As shown in Figure 20, rejection nulls occur at multiples of frequency fN, where fN is
determined by the input control bits FA and FB (fN = 50Hz
or 60Hz or 55Hz for simultaneous rejection). Multiples of
the modulator sampling rate (fS = fN • 256) only reject noise
to 15dB (see Figure 21); if noise sources are present at
these frequencies antialiasing will reduce their effects.
The user can expect to achieve this level of performance
using the internal oscillator, as shown in Figures 22, 23,
and 24. Measured values of normal mode rejection are

LTC2495
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Using the 2X speed mode of the LTC2495 alters the
rejection characteristics around DC and multiples of fS.
The device bypasses the offset calibration in order to
increase the output rate. The resulting rejection plots are
shown in Figures 27 and 28. 1x type frequency rejection
can be achieved using the 2x mode by performing a running average of the previoius two conversion results (see
Figure 29).
Output Data Rate
When using its internal oscillator, the LTC2495 produces
up to 15 samples per second (sps) with a notch frequency of
60Hz. The actual output data rate depends upon the length
of the sleep and data output cycles which are controlled
by the user and can be made insignificantly short. When
operating with an external conversion clock (FO connected
to an external oscillator), the LTC2495 output data rate
can be increased. The duration of the conversion cycle is
41036/fEOSC. If fEOSC = 307.2kHz, the converter behaves
as if the internal oscillator is used.
An increase in fEOSC over the nominal 307.2kHz will translate into a proportional increase in the maximum output
data rate (up to a maximum of 100sps). The increase in
output rate leads to degradation in offset, full-scale error,
and effective resolution as well as a shift in frequency rejection. When using the integrated temperature sensor, the
internal oscillator should be used or an external oscillator
fEOSC = 307.2kHz maximum.
A change in fEOSC results in a proportional change in the
internal notch position. This leads to reduced differential
mode rejection of line frequencies. The common mode
rejection of line frequencies remains unchanged, thus fully
differential input signals with a high degree of symmetry
on both the IN+ and IN – pins will continue to reject line
frequency noise.
An increase in fEOSC also increases the effective dynamic
input and reference current. External RC networks will
continue to have zero differential input current, but the
time required for complete settling (580ns for fEOSC =
307.2kHz) is reduced, proportionally.
Once the external oscillator frequency is increased above
1MHz (a more than 3x increase in output rate) the effectiveness of internal auto calibration circuits begins to degrade.
This results in larger offset errors, full-scale errors, and
decreased resolution, as seen in Figures 30 to 37.
