imum flexibility. The system monitor can be configured for
single-ended and/or pseudo-differential inputs. An on-board
temperature sensor, combined with WATCHDOG window
comparators, and an interrupt output pin, INT, allow easy
monitoring and out-of-range alarms for every channel. A high
performance internal reference is also available to provide for
a complete solution in the most difficult operating conditions.
The ADC128D818’s 12-bit delta-sigma ADC supports Standard Mode (Sm, 100 kbits/s) and Fast Mode (Fm, 400kbits/s)
I2C interfaces. The ADC128D818 includes a sequencer to
control channel conversions and stores all converted results
in independent registers for easy microprocessor retrieval.
Unused channels can be shut down independently to conserve power.
The ADC can use either an internal 2.56V reference or a variable external reference. An analog filter is included on the
I2C digital control lines to provide improved noise immunity.
The device also includes a TIMEOUT reset function on SDA
and SCL to prevent I2C bus lock-up.
The ADC128D818 operates from +3.0 to +5.5V power supply
voltage range, –40°C to 125°C temperature range, and the
device is available in a 16-pin TSSOP package.

FIGURE 1. Serial Bus Timing Diagram
Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is
functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. The guaranteed
specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test
conditions.
Note 2: All voltages are measured with respect to GND, unless otherwise specified.
Note 3: If the input voltage at any pin exceeds the power supply ( that is, VIN < GND or VIN > V +) but is less than the absolute maximum ratings, then the current
at that pin should be limited to 5mA. The 30 mA maximum package input current rating limits the number of pins that can safely exceed the power supply with
an input current of 5mA to six pins. Parasitic components and/or ESD protection circuitry are shown in the Pin Descriptions table.
Note 4: The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by TJMAX, θJA and the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum
allowable power dissipation at any temperature is PD = (TJMAX − T A) / θJA.
Note 5: For the given θJA, the device is on a 2-layer printed circuit board with 1 oz. copper foil and no airflow.
Note 6: Human body model (HBM) is a charged 100pF capacitor discharged into a 1.5kΩ resistor. Machine model (MM) is a charged 200pF capacitor discharged
directly into each pin. Charged Device Model (CDM) simulates a pin slowly acquiring charge (such as from a device sliding down the feeder in an automated
assembler) then rapidly being discharged.
Note 7: Each input and output is protected by an ESD structure to GND, as shown in the Pin Descriptions table. Input voltage magnitude up to 0.3V above V+ or
0.3V below GND will not damage the ADC128D818. There are diodes that exist between some inputs and the power supply rails. Errors in the ADC conversion
can occur if these diodes are forward biased by more than 50mV. As an example, if V+ is 4.50 VDC, INx (where 0 ≤ x ≤ 7) must be ≤ 4.55 VDC to ensure accurate
conversions.
Note 8: Typicals are at TJ = TA = 25°C and represent most likely parametric norm.
Note 9: Limits are guaranteed to National's AOQL (Average Outgoing Quality Level).
Note 10: Limit is guaranteed by characterization.
Note 11: TUE (Total Unadjusted Error) includes Offset, Gain and Linearity errors of the ADC.
Note 12: The range is up to 7/8 of full scale.
Note 13: Limit is guaranteed by design.
Note 14: Timing specifications are tested at the Serial Bus Input logic levels: VIN(0) = 0.3 × V+ for a falling edge and VIN(1) = 0.7 × V+ for a rising edge if the SCL
and SDA edge rates are similar.

15.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADC128D818 provides 8 analog inputs, a temperature
sensor, a delta-sigma ADC, an external or internal VREF option, and WATCHDOG registers on a single chip. An I2C
Serial Bus interface is also provided. The ADC128D818 can
perform voltage and temperature monitoring for a variety of
systems.
The ADC128D818 continuously converts the voltage input to
12-bit resolution with an internal VREF of 0.625mV LSb
(Least Significant bit) weighting, yielding input range of 0V to
2.56V. There is also an external VREF option that ranges from
1.25V to V+. The analog inputs are intended to be connected
to several power supplies present in a variety of systems.
Eight inputs can be configured for single-ended and/or pseudo-differential channels. Temperature can be converted to a
9-bit two's complement word with resolutions of 0.5°C per
LSb.
The ADC128D818 provides a number of internal registers.
These registers are summarized in the "ADC128D818 Internal Registers" section.
The ADC128D818 supports Standard Mode (Sm, 100kbits/s)
and Fast Mode (Fm, 400kbits/s) I2C interface modes of operation. ADC128D818 includes an analog filter on the I2C
digital control lines that allows improved noise immunity. The
device also supports TIMEOUT reset function on SDA and
SCL to prevent I2C bus lock-up. Two tri-level address pins
allow up to 9 devices on a single I2C bus.
At start-up, ADC128D818 cycles through each measurement
in sequence and continuously loops through the sequence
based on the Conversion Rate Register (address 07h) setting. Each measured value is compared to values stored in
the Limit Registers (addresses 2Ah - 39h). When the measured value violates the programmed limit, the ADC128D818
will set a corresponding interrupt bit in the Interrupt Status
Registers (address 01h). An interrupt output pin, INT, is also
available and fully programmable.
15.4 ANALOG INPUTS (IN0 - IN7)
The ADC128D818 allows up to 8 single-ended inputs or 4
pseudo-differential inputs as selected by the modes of operation. The input types are described in the next subsections.
15.4.1 Single-Ended Input
ADC128D818 allows a maximum of 8 single-ended inputs,
where the source's voltage is connected to INx (0 ≤ x ≤ 7).
The source’s ground should be connected to ADC128D818’s
GND pin. In theory, INx can be of any value between 0V and
(VREF-3LSb/2), where LSb = VREF/212.
To use the device single-endedly, refer to the "Modes of Operation" section and to bits [2:1] of the Advanced Configuration Register (address 0Bh). Figure 2 shows the appropriate
configuration for a single-ended connection.
30096331
FIGURE 2. Single-Ended Configuration
15.4.2 Pseudo-Differential Input
Pseudo-differential mode is defined as the positive input voltage applied differentially to the ADC128D818, as shown in
Figure 3. The input that is digitized is (ΔVIN = IN+ - IN-), where
(IN+ - IN-) is (IN0-IN1), (IN3-IN2), (IN4-IN5), or (IN7-IN6). Be
aware of this input configuration because the order is
swapped. In theory, ΔVIN can be of any value between 0V
and (VREF-3LSb/2),where LSb = VREF/212.
By using this pseudo-differential input, small signals common
to both inputs are rejected. Thus, operation with a pseudodifferential input signal will provide better performance than
with a single-ended input. Refer to the "Modes of Operation"
section for more information.
15.2 SUPPLY VOLTAGE (V+)
The ADC128D818 operates with a supply voltage, V+, that
has a range between +3.0V to +5.5V. Care must be taken to
bypass this pin with a parallel combination of 1 µF (electrolytic
or tantalum) capacitor and 0.1 µF (ceramic) bypass capacitor.
15.3 VOLTAGE REFERENCES (VREF)
The reference voltage (VREF) sets the analog input range.
The ADC128D818 has two options for setting VREF. The first
option is to use the internal VREF, which is equal to 2.56V.
The second option is to source VREF externally via pin 1 of
ADC128D818. In this case, the external VREF will operate in
the range of 1.25V to V+. The default VREF selection is the
internal VREF. If the external VREF is preferred, use the Advanced Configuration Register (address 0Bh) to change this
setting.
VREF source must have a low output impedance and needs
to be bypassed with a minimum capacitor value of 0.1 µF. A
larger capacitor value of 1 µF placed in parallel with the
0.1 µF is preferred. VREF of the ADC128D818, like all ADC
converters, does not reject noise or voltage variations. Keep
this in mind if VREF is derived from the power supply. Any
noise and/or ripple from the supply that is not rejected by the
external reference circuitry will appear in the digital results.

The use of a reference source is recommended. The LM4040
and LM4050 shunt reference families as well as the LM4120
and LM4140 series reference families are excellent choices
for a reference source.

the pseudo-differential configuration. In theory, ΔVIN can be
of any value between 0V and (VREF-3LSb/2). Any ΔVIN value outside of this range will produce a digital output code of
0 or 4095. Figure 4 shows a theoretical plot of DOUT vs. ΔVIN
and some sample DOUT calculation using the equation above.

ADC128D818
15.6 POWER MANAGEMENT
To understand the average supply current (I+), the conversion
rates must be introduced. ADC128D818 has three types of
conversion rates: Continuous Conversion Mode, Low Power
Conversion Mode, and One Shot Mode. In the Low Power
Conversion Mode, the device converts all of the enabled
channels then enters shutdown mode; this process takes approximately 728 ms to complete. (More information on the
conversion rate will be discussed in the "Conversion Rate
Register (address 07h)" and "One-Shot Register (address
09h)" sections).
Each type of conversion produces a different average supply
current. The supply current for a voltage conversion will be
referred to as I+_VOLTAGE, a temperature conversion as
I+_TEMP, and the shutdown mode as I+_SHUTDOWN.
These values can be obtained from Typical Performance
Characteristics plots.
In general, I+ is the average supply current while
ADC128D818 is operating in the Low Power Conversion
Mode with all of the available channels enabled. Its plot can
be seen in the "Typical Performance Characteristic" section
and its equation is shown below.

I2C bus. Examples to set each address bit low, high, or to
midscale can be found in the "Example Applications" section.
The Serial Bus Address can be set as follows:
15.7 INTERFACE
The Serial Bus control lines include the SDA (serial data),
SCL (serial clock), and A0-A1 (Serial Bus Address) pins. The
ADC128D818 can only operate as a slave. The SCL line only
controls the serial interface, and all of other clock functions
within ADC128D818 are done with a separate asynchronous
internal clock.
When the Serial Bus Interface is used, a write will always
consists of the ADC128D818 Serial Bus Address byte, followed by the Register Address byte, then the Data byte.
Figure 6 and Figure 7 are two examples showing how to write
to the ADC128D818.
There are two cases for a read:
1. If the Register Address is known to be at the desired
address, simply read the ADC128D818 with the Serial
Bus Address byte, followed by the Data byte read from
the ADC128D818. Examples of this type of read can be
seen in Figure 8 and Figure 9.
2. If the Register Address value is unknown, write to the
ADC128D818 with the Serial Bus Address byte, followed
by the desired Register Address byte. Then restart the
Serial Communication with a Read consisting of the
Serial Bus Address byte, followed by the Data byte read
from the ADC128D818. See Figure 10 and Figure 11 for
examples of this type of read.
The Serial Bus Address can be found in the next section, and
the Register Address can be found in the "Register Map" section. For more information on the I2C Interface, refer to NXP's
"I2C-Bus Specification and User Manual", rev. 03.

15.7.2 Timeout
The ADC128D818 I2C state machine resets to its idle state if
either SCL or SDA is held low for longer than 35ms. This feature also ensures that ADC128D818 will automatically release SDA after driving it low continuously for 25-35ms, hence
preventing I2C bus lock-up. The TIMEOUT feature should not
be used when the device is operating in deep shutdown
mode.

the registers to their default values. These default values are
shown in the table above or in the "Register Map" section.
Registers whose default values are not shown have power on
conditions that are indeterminate.
15.8.2 Quick Start
1. Power on the device, then wait for at least 33ms.
2. Read the Busy Status Register (address 0Ch). If the 'Not
Ready' bit = 1, then increase the wait time until 'Not
Ready' bit = 0 before proceeding to the next step.
3. Program the Advanced Configuration Register (address
0Bh):
a. Choose to use the internal or external VREF (bit 0).
b. Choose the mode of operation (bits [2:1]).
4. Program the Conversion Rate Register (address 07h).
5. Choose to enable or disable the channels using the
Channel Disable Register (address 08h).
6. Using the Interrupt Mask Register (address 03h), choose
to mask or not to mask the interrupt status from
propagating to the interrupt output pin, INT.
7. Program the Limit Registers (addresses 2Ah – 39h).
8. Set the ‘START’ bit of the Configuration Register
(address 00h, bit 0) to 1.
9. Set the 'INT_Clear' bit (address 00h, bit 3) to 0. If needed,
program the 'INT_Enable' bit (address 00h, bit 1) to 1 to
enable the INT output.
The ADC128D818 then performs a round-robin monitoring of
enabled voltage and temperature channels. The sequence of
items being monitored corresponds to locations in the Channel Readings Registers (except for the temperature reading).
Detailed descriptions of the register map can be found at the
end of this datasheet.
15.8.4 Configuration Register (address 00h)
The Configuration Register (address 00h) provides all control
to the ADC128D818. After POR, the 'START' bit (bit 0) is set
low and the 'INT_Clear' bit (bit 3) is set high.
The Configuration Register has the ability to start and stop the
ADC128D818, enable and disable the INT output, and set the
registers to their default values.
• Bit 0, ‘START’, controls the monitoring loop of the
ADC128D818. After POR, set this bit high to start
conversion. Setting this bit low stops the ADC128D818
monitoring loop and puts the ADC128D818 in shutdown
mode; thus, reducing power consumption. Even though
this bit is set low, serial bus communication is possible with
any register in the ADC128D818.
After an interrupt occurs, the INT pin will not be cleared if
the user sets this bit low.
• Bit 1, 'INT_Enable', enables the interrupt output pin, INT,
when this bit is set high.
• Bit 3, 'INT_Clear', clears the interrupt output pin, INT,
when this bit is set high. When this bit is set high, the
ADC128D818 monitoring function will stop. The content of
the Interrupt Status Register (address 01h) will not be
affected.
• Bit 7, ‘INITIALIZATION’, accomplishes the same function
as POR, that is, it initializes some of the registers to their
default values. This bit automatically clears after being set
high. Setting this bit high, however, does not reset the
Channel Readings Registers (addresses 20h - 27h) and
15.8.3 Power On Reset (POR)
When power is first applied, the ADC128D818 performs a
power on reset (POR) on several of its registers, which sets
19
www.national.com
ADC128D818
the Limit Registers (addresses 2Ah - 39h). These registers
will be indeterminate immediately after power on. If the
Channel Readings Registers contain valid conversion
results and/or the Limit Registers have been previously
set, they will not be affected by this bit.
15.8.8 One-Shot Register (address 09h)
The One-Shot register is used to initiate a single conversion
and comparison cycle when the device is in shutdown mode
or deep shutdown mode, after which the device returns to the
respective mode it was in. The obvious advantage of using
this mode is lower power consumption because the device is
operating in shutdown or deep shutdown mode.
This register is not a data register, and it is the write operation
that causes the one-shot conversion. The data written to this
address is irrelevant and is not stored. A zero will always be
read from this register.
15.8.5 Interrupt Status Register (address 01h)
Each bit in this read-only register indicates whether the voltage reading > the voltage high limit or ≤ the voltage low limit,
or the temperature reading > the temperature high limit. For
example, if "IN0 High Limit" register (address 2Ah) were set
to 2V and if IN0 reading (address 20h) were 2.56V, then bit
'IN0 Error' would be 1, indicating that the voltage high limit has
been exceeded.
15.8.9 Deep Shutdown Register (address 0Ah)
The ADC128D818 can be placed in deep shutdown mode,
thus reducing more power consumption. The procedures for
deep shutdown entrance are:
1. Enter shutdown by setting the ‘START’ bit of the
“Configuration Register’ (address 00h, bit 0) to 0.
2. Enter deep shutdown by setting the ‘DEEP SHUTDOWN’
bit (address 0Ah, bit 0) to 1.
3. A one-shot conversion can be triggered by writing any
values to register address 09h.
Deep Shutdown Exit Procedure:
1. Set the ‘DEEP SHUTDOWN’ bit to 0.
15.8.6 Interrupt Mask Register (address 03h)
This register masks the interrupt status from propagating to
the interrupt output pin, INT. For example, if bit 'IN0 Mask' =
1, then the interrupt output pin, INT, would not be pulled low
even if an error event occurs at IN0.
15.8.7 Conversion Rate Register (address 07h)
There are three options for controlling the conversion rate.
The first option is called the Low Power Conversion Mode,
where the device converts all of the enabled channels then
enters shutdown mode. This process takes approximately
728 ms to complete.
The second option is the Continuous Conversion Mode,
where the device continuously converts the enabled channels, thus never entering shutdown mode. A voltage conversion takes 12.2 ms, and a temperature conversion takes 3.6
ms. For example, if operating in mode 2 and three voltage
channels were enabled, then each round-robin monitor would
take 40.2 ms (3 x 12.2ms + 3.6ms) to complete. Use the
"Channel Disable Register" (address 08h) to disable the desired channel(s).
The third option is called the On-Shot mode, which will be
discussed in the next subsection.
www.national.com
15.8.10 Channel Readings Registers (addresses 20h 27h)
The channel conversion readings are available in registers
20h to 27h. Each register is 16-bit wide to accommodate the
12-bit voltage reading or 9-bit temperature reading. Conversions can be read at any time and will provide the result of the
last conversion. If a conversion is in progress while a communication is started, that conversion will be completed, and
the Channel Reading Registers will not be updated until the
communication is complete.

Each temperature limit is represented by an 8-bit, two's complement word with an LSb (Least Significant bit) equal to

temperature reading can be read using a double byte read
(Figure 9 or Figure 11). The following figure and the table below it show the theoretical output code (DOUT) vs. temperature
and some typical temperature-to-code conversions.

15.10 INTERRUPT STRUCTURE
30096318
FIGURE 13. Interrupt Structure
Figure 13 shows the ADC128D818's Interrupt Structure. Note
that the number next to each bit name represents its register
address and bit number. For example, 'INT_Clear' (00h[3])
refers to bit 3 of register address 00h.
Another method to clear the interrupt output pin, INT, is setting
'INT_Clear' bit (address 00h, bit 3) = 1. When this bit is high,
the ADC128D818 round-robin monitoring loop will stop.
15.10.3 Temperature Interrupt
One of the ADC128D818 features is monitoring the temperature reading. This monitoring is accomplished by setting a
temperature limit to the Temperature High Limit Register
(Thot , address 38h) and Temperature Hysteresis Limit Register (Thot_hyst, address 39h). These limit registers have an
interrupt mode, shown in Figure 14, that operates the the following way: if the temperature reading > Thot, an interrupt will
occur and will remain active indefinitely until reset by reading
the Interrupt Status Register (address 01h) or cleared by the
'INT_Clear' bit.
Once an interrupt event has occurred by crossing Thot, then
reset, an interrupt will occur again once the next temperature
conversion has completed. The interrupts will continue to occur in this manner until the temperature reading is ≤ Thot_hyst
and a read of the Interrupt Status Register has occurred.
15.10.1 Interrupt Output (INT)
ADC128D818 generates an interrupt as a result of each of its
internal WATCHDOG registers on the voltage and temperature channels. In general, INT becomes active when all three
scenarios, as depicted in Figure 13, occur:
1. 'INT_Clear' (00h[3]) = 0.
2. 'INT_Enable' (00h[1]) = 1 to enable interrupt output.
3. The voltage reading > the voltage high limit or ≤ the
voltage low limit, or the temperature reading > Thot.
15.10.2 Interrupt Clearing
Reading the Interrupt Status Register (addresses 01h) will
output the contents of the register and clear the register.
When the Interrupt Status Register clears, the interrupt output
pin, INT, also clears until this register is updated by the roundrobin monitoring loop.

15.11 EXAMPLE APPLICATIONS
15.11.1 General Voltage Monitoring
30096341
FIGURE 15. Typical Analog Input Application
A typical application for ADC128D818 is voltage monitoring.
In this application, the inputs would most often be connected
to linear power supplies of 2.5V, 3.3V, ±5V and ±12V inputs.
These inputs should be attenuated with external resistors to
any desired value within the input range. The attenuation is
done with resistors R1 and R2 for the positive single-ended
voltage, and R3 and R4 for the positive pseudo-differential
voltage.
A typical single-ended application might select the input voltage divider to provide 1.9V at the analog input of the ADC128D818. This is sufficiently high for good resolution of the
voltage, yet leaves headroom for upward excursions from the
supply of about 25%. To simplify the process of resistor selection, set the value of R2 first. Select a value for R2 between
10 kOhm and 100 kOhm. This is low enough to avoid errors
due to input leakage currents yet high enough to protect both
the inputs under and overdrive conditions as well as minimize
loading of the source. Finally, calculate R1 to provide a 1.9V
input using simple voltage divider derived formula:
Care should be taken to bypass V+ with decoupling 0.1 µF
ceramic capacitor and 1 µF tantalum capacitor. If using the
external reference option, VREF should be connected to a
voltage reference, such as the LM4140, and should also be
decoupled to the ground plane by a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor
and a 1 µF tantalum capacitor. For both supplies, the 0.1 µF
capacitor should be located as close as possible to the ADC128D818.
Since SDA, SCL, and INT are open-drain pins, they should
have external pull-up resistors to ensure that the bus is pulled
high until a master device or slave device sinks enough current to pull the bus low. A typical pull-up resistor, R, ranges
from 1.1 kOhm to 10 kOhm. Refer to NXP's "I2C-Bus Specification and User Manual" for more information on sizing R.
Because there are two tri-level address pins (A0 and A1), up
to 9 devices can share the same I2C bus. A trick to set these
serial addresses utilizes four GPO (general purpose output)
pins from the master device as shown in the example diagram. A table showing how to program these GPO pins can
be seen below.

FIGURE 16. Power Supply Application
Figure 16 shows a more complete systems application using
a DC/DC converter. Such configuration can be used in a power supply application. The point to make with this example
diagram is the Serial Bus Address connections. The previous
example shows A0 and A1 connected to four GPOs, but this
example shows a simpler A0 and A1 connection using two
resistor dividers. This connection accomplishes the same
www.national.com
goal as the GPO connection, that is, it can set A0 and A1 high,
low, or to midscale.
For example, to set A0 high, don't populate RB_bottom; to set
A0 low, don't populate RB_top; and to set A0 to midscale,
leave RB_top and RB_bottom as is and set them equal to
each other. A typical RB value ranges from 1 kOhm to 10
kOhm.

15.11.3 Temperature Sensors
30096343
FIGURE 17. Temperature Sensor Applications
An external temperature sensor can be connected to any of
ADC128D818's eight single-ended input for additional temperature sensing. One such temperature sensor can be
National's LM94022, a precision analog temperature sensor
with selectable gains. The application diagram shows
LM94022's gains (GS1 and GS0) both grounded indicating
the lowest gain setting. Four possible gains can be set using
these GS1 and GS0 pins.
According to the LM94022 datasheet, the voltage-to-temperature output plot can be determined using the method of linear
approximation as follows:
Where V is in mV, T is in °C, V1 and T1 are the coordinates
of the lowest temperature, and T2 and V2 are the coordinates
of the highest temperature.
For example, to determine the equation of a line over a temperature range of 20°C to 50°C, first find V1 and V2 relative
to those temperatures, then use the above equation to find
the transfer function.
V - 925 mV = (760 mV - 925 mV) / (50C - 20°C) x (T - 20°C)
V = (-5.50 mV /°C) x T + 1035 mV
For more information and explanation of this example, refer
to the LM94022 datasheet.

15.11.4 Bridge Sensors
30096344
FIGURE 18. Bridge Sensor Application
ADC128D818 is perfect for transducer applications such as
pressure sensors. These sensors measure pressure of gases
or liquids and produce a pressure-equivalent voltage at their
outputs. Figure 18 shows a typical connection of a pressure
sensor, represented by the bridge sensor.
Most pressure sensor has a low sensitivity characteristic,
which means its output is typically in the millivolts range. Because of that reason, an op-amp, such as an instrumentation
amplifier, can be used for the gain stage.
The positive aspect of this configuration is its ratiometric connection. A ratiometric connection is when the ADC’s VREF
and GND are connected to the bridge sensor’s voltage refer-
www.national.com
ences. With a ratiometric configuration, external VREF accuracy can be ignored.
15.11.5 Layout and Grounding
Analog inputs will provide best accuracy when referred to the
GND pin or a supply with low noise. A separate, lowimpedance ground plane for analog ground, which provides
a ground point for the voltage dividers and analog components, will provide best performance but is not mandatory.
Analog components such as voltage dividers should be located physically as close as possible to the ADC128D818.
