MCP3901 DELTA-SIGMA SAMPLING/MCLK OPTIONS
The MCP3901 device is an ADC with a second order modulator and a third order sync
filter. This Delta-Sigma A/D converter has an adjustable oversampling ratio. The CLKIN
pin of the MCP3901 is the oversampling clock (MCLK) input. The MCP3901 ADC
Evaluation Board for 16-Bit MCUs offers two different options for the MCP3901 master
clock (MCLK).
1.3.1
Using the Crystal X2
The MCP3901 ADC Evaluation Board for 16-Bit MCUs is populated with a 3.58 MHz
crystal, which is used as a clock source by placing jumpers in the following position on
the MCP3901 Digital I/O header block:
CLKOUT

Driving the Clock with the PIM Module
The PIC MCU can be used to generate the CLKIN (MCLK) signal for the MCP3901,
setting the ADC sample rate through the use of the output compare module OC1. To
use this, make the following jumper change to the MCP3901 Digital I/O header block:

The frequency of the OC1 output is based on the PR1 bits settings in the firmware
(for both PIC24 and dsPIC33 PIM modules supplied with this system). The signal
frequency from OC1 can be changed by the user from the PS software by changing the
value in the sampling rate control box. A low number will generate a high frequency signal. The value of the sampling rate, which is directly proportional with the clock
frequency from OC1, is indicated in the sampling speed indicator box in the PC
software (see Figure 3-1).

Hardware Description
1.4
ANALOG INPUT STRUCTURE
Two differential input paths allow external signal sources to be easily connected to the
MCP3901 input. Edge connectors JP1 and JP2 are 3-pin connectors that act both as
crew type and clip on post connectors.
Note:
To use an edge connector as a post connector, pull up the blue plastic top
to access posts.
JP1 and JP2 can be used to force either channel from a differential to single-ended
configuration. R3 and R4 (on CH0), and R1 and R2 (on CH2) act as locations for
burden resistor connectors for any current transformer inputs.
1.5
UNIVERSAL SERIAL BUS (USB)
The MCP3901 ADC Evaluation Board for 16-Bit MCUs also contains a USB connection
for higher speed sampling and data collection. The circuit includes a 512x8 SRAM for
data collection. Figure 1-5 summarizes the connections between the ADC, the two
microcontrollers and memory.
Note:
For the MCP3901 ADC Evaluation Board for 16-Bit MCUs release, no USB
firmware is supplied. The PIC18F86J55 is blank and only included for
development purposes.

Chapter 2. Firmware
2.1
DSPIC33 FIRMWARE DESCRIPTION
2.1.1
Reset and Initialization
After reset, the global variables ConfigHValue, ConfigLValue, GainValue, and
StatusComValue are written to 0x00. These variables will be written with values
received from the PC, to set up the MCP3901 as required. Next, the Initialization()
function is called to set up the dsPIC33. First, interrupt nesting is configured in order to
disable the user interrupts by putting the MCU priority at 7 (maximum). External interrupt
3 is enabled on the positive edge. The INT3 interrupt is enabled but the priority is set to 6.
Since it is lower than 7, it will not be active until the MCU priority is decreased to less than
6. The MCU uses the FRC (7.37 MHz) with PLL. The clock on the MCU will be 80 MHz,
the maximum frequency for dsPIC33, at which the computing power is 40 MIPS.
Timer2 is placed on the Output Compare 1 pin (OC1), and is used to generate the
master clock (MCLK) for the MCP3901. In addition, some initial values are set up for
the MCP3901 clock frequency. Timer5 is configured (but not active), and the interrupt
is disabled. The user can enable it for different applications. The SPI peripheral is
configured, but the interrupt is disabled. The SPI interrupt will be enabled in code to
establish the communication between MCU and MCP3901. The UART is used to send
and receive data from the PC at a speed of 115200 baud. Timer8 and Timer9 are
configured to create a 32-bit timer that runs at maximum speed. It is used to measure
the time needed to fill the data buffer, so it measures the sampling speed of the
MCP3901.
After the execution of the Initialization() function, the MCP3901 is configured
with values given by a set of functions especially developed for the MCP3901
configuration. In this case, this step is not necessary because the MCP3901 will update
its configuration using data from the PC GUI. These functions are helpful for users to
develop applications that do not involve a PC to configure the MCP3901.
For example, AddressLoop(NONE) is used to select the loop on specific registers
groups and types. DRHIZ(ON) will allow the data ready pulse to be present at the
output of the MCP3901 even if there is no pull-up resistor. SetGain(1,1) configures
the gain of both channels at 1. A list of all configuration functions are found in the
firmware file, main.c, starting at line 345.
It is important to have interrupts disabled during this configuration. Only after the
MCP3901 is configured using the functions described, can the interrupts be enabled.
In this case, it is done by decreasing the CPU priority to 3.

2.2
DATA ACQUISITION
The end of a conversion is indicated with a short high pulse on the Data Ready (DR)
pin of the ADC. The DR pin is connected to the External Interrupt 3 pin and is used for
detecting the end of a conversion on MCP3901. In the INT3 interrupt, the SPI interrupt
is activated and the first transmission on the SPI is initiated. The SPI communication
that follows can be a read of the ADC conversion register or the Configuration register.
CCT = 0 is a read of the ADC Conversion register, and CCT = 1 is a read of the
MCP3901 Configuration register. It is possible to read the ADC conversion registers
and MCP3901 configuration registers at the same time, but due to transfer volume and
its impact on speed, this will prevent achieving a high sampling rate. SPI communication is always in 8-bit mode.

An SPI interrupt takes place after each successful data transfer between master and
slave on the SPI. As with any interrupt, the first thing to do is to clear the interrupt flag;
otherwise, a new interrupt will occur without reason. The CCSPI global value is the
counter that indicates if the SPI transfer that is occuring is the first, the second, etc.
After saving the samples into the MCU, SPI communication is disabled by setting CS
high. If CCT was ‘0’, then the data that comes from the MCP3901 is ADC conversion
data and will be converted from 3 bytes into an unsigned long number. This 24-bit value
will be saved into the current or voltage buffers.
DS51845B-page 16
 2010 Microchip Technology Inc.
Firmware
When the first sample is written in the buffer, the 32-bit timer created using Timer8 and
9, begins counting from 0. When the last sample is written into the buffer, the 32-bit
timer is read. The value indicated will be used to compute the sampling speed.
If the CCT is 1, then the data read from the MCP3901 will be the configuration data.
This will be saved in MCU in other global variables, used later to send this info to the
PC GUI.
After the SPI communication completes, the SPI interrupt will be disabled and the
UART TX interrupt will be enabled. The first character sent on UART is char 33; this is
the header of the UART communication protocol that is adopted here.

2.3
UART COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL
The MCU uses the UART to send and receive data to the PC. The TX and RX interrupts
are not used simultaneously in this firmware example, but it is possible to do so, if the
user requires it.
As soon as the buffer is filled with data from the ADC, the SPI interrupt is disabled, and
the TX interrupt is enabled. There are more types of data to be sent from the MCU to
the PC. The first to be sent is the data stored in the buffers. Before being sent, each
number is translated to ASCII characters that represent the number stored in the buffer.
The start of the buffer data transmissions is acknowledged by transmitting the
character: “!”.
The numbers in the current buffer are comma delimited, and each row ends with the
characters “0x0D”. After 512 rows, the buffer data transmission is complete, which is
signaled by sending out the character “D”.
Next, the data regarding the MCP3901 configuration and sampling speed is sent out.
After a total of 35 characters are sent, the MCP3901 configuration data is fully transmitted, which is signaled by sending the character “;” to the PC. This character also
signals that the result of an FFT computation will be sent out next.
In the last UART TX interrupt, the TX interrupt is disabled and the RX interrupt is
enabled. Through the RX interrupt, the MCU will receive the configuration for the
MCP3901 desired by the user. The protocol is simple. The first character received must
be “D” from configuration data. Following this character will be the values of 6 registers:
PHASE, GAIN, CONFIGH, CONFIGL, STATUS, PPREG8. The first 5 registers can
hold values from 0 to 255, so they are made up of a maximum 3 characters. If the equivalent number is less than 100, the first character will be the space character (“ ”), not
zero. The PREG8 register is a 16-bit register inside the MCU that controls the frequency of the clock signal from OC1, which controls the sampling speed of the
MCP3901. Since it is a 16-bit register, the number of characters that create the correct
value is 5.

FOR 16-BIT MCUs USER’S GUIDE
Chapter 3. MCP3901 PC Software Tool
3.1
SOFTWARE OVERVIEW
The MCP3901 ADC Evaluation Board for 16-Bit MCUs includes a PC Graphical User
Interface (GUI) that performs:
• ADC configuration
• Data analysis for easier system debugging
• Device evaluation
Figure 3-1 shows a sample of the software’s GUI.

3.2
SETTING THE CONFIGURATION OF THE ADC
The MCP3901 Data View sets up the configuration registers of the MCP3901 by putting
the desired value on the “Write Registers” tab. Usually, it takes a few seconds to update
the MCP3901 configuration. To learn the configuration of the MCP3901 without changing it, click on the “Read Registers” tab and the same image as in “Write Registers” will
display. The difference is that the controls will be indicators, and the user cannot
change the values, but can only read the setup of the MCP3901.
3.3
CONNECTIVITY AND RECORDING LENGTH
The PC is connected to the MCP3901 ADC Evaluation Board for 16-Bit MCUs through
the RS232 cable. It is important to have a COM port on the PC. It is also possible to
use a USB to RS232 adaptor cable, but the user will need to note the number of the
virtual COM port. To do this, right click on My computer > Manage > Device Manager
> Port (COM and LPT), and read the number in parenthesis after the device name. The
COM port number must be selected in the “VISA Resource Name” field.
The MCU sends a large package of data to the PC. If the user only needs to see a small
part of the buffer, define the desired buffer length in the “Buffer Length” field. The
maximum length is 512 samples.
The average control can be used to view the impact of averaging over the ADC
accuracy. The number of points in the waveform graph will be less than the number
written in the “Buffer Length” control by a ratio equal with the value of the average. A
value equal to zero will cause an error. A value of ‘1’ means that no averaging is done.
When the program is opened for the first time, the value from the controls will have
some default values. The user must set up the communication port before starting the
acquisition by pressing the START button. To stop the acquisition, press the STOP button. Close the MCP3901 Data View application by clicking the “X” in the upper right
corner of the window.
3.4
SCOPE PLOT WINDOW - TIME DOMAIN ANALYSIS
The recorded samples from a buffer are indicated on the “Waveform Graphs” screens.
The size of the X axis is given by the number written in the “Buffer Length” field. On the
Y axis, the LSBs are indicated. To scale the time axis, it is necessary to modify either
the buffer length (the number of points indicated in the waveform graph), or to change
the sampling rate of the ADC.
The sampling rate of the ADC can be changed from the “Sampling Speed Control” box.
Writing a small value will achieve a high sampling rate. The correct value of the sampling rate is indicated in the “Sampling Speed Indicator”. The highest sampling speed
that can be obtained is 55 ksps by setting: OSR = 32, Addr Loop = ALL and Sampling
Speed Control = 5.
3.5
HISTOGRAM WINDOW – NOISE ANALYSIS
For the evaluation of the Effective Number Of Bits (ENOB), the GUI will compute a few
statistical parameters: the mean value, standard deviation, and variance for each channel. These parameters display at the bottom of the GUI, under the Histogram Graph
screens. The formula used for the ENOB in the case of a DC signal is seen in
Equation 3-1, if the application indicates the acquired data on 16 bits.
EQUATION 3-1:
ENOB = 16 – log 2   
DS51845B-page 22
 2010 Microchip Technology Inc.
MCP3901 PC Software Tool
Use Equation 3-2 if the data is represented on 24 bits.
EQUATION 3-2:
ENOB = 24 – log 2   
ENOB can also be computed when an AC signal is applied at the input. The formula to
compute ENOB in an AC case is shown in Equation 3-3.
EQUATION 3-3:
SINAD – 1.76
ENOB = ---------------------------------6.02
The distribution of noise from the acquired signal displays on the Histogram Graph
screens.These graphs indicate how many times a code was present inside a buffer.
3.6
FFT WINDOW – FREQUENCY DOMAIN ANALYSIS
The spectrum of the acquired signal is visible in the Signal Spectrum screen. Above
these graphics there is a button that can be used to set the Y axis to be linear or
logarithmic. A logarithmic scale on the Y axis is useful to see the level of low harmonics,
or the noise floor. The length of the FFT is given by the buffer length and the sampling
speed. The X axis is scaled directly in Hz units.
Another feature of the software is the window selection for the FFT computation. This
is done from the “Window” fields, in the lower region of the GUI, right above the
Current FFT screens. The user can select from a large number of windows.
Since the GUI performs the spectral analysis of the acquired signal, it is possible to
compute AC performance parameters of the ADC: “THD” and “SINAD” are shown on
the indicators, under the Histogram Graph screens.
