The eight input channels are multiplexed. Internal
buffering can be selected to provide a very high input
impedance for direct connection to transducers or
low-level voltage signals. Burnout current sources are
provided that allow for the detection of an open or
shorted sensor. An 8-bit Digital-to-Analog (D/A)
converter provides an offset correction with a range
of 50% of the FSR (Full-Scale Range).
The PGA (Programmable Gain Amplifier) provides
selectable gains of 1 to 128 with an effective
resolution of 19 bits at a gain of 128. The A/D
conversion is accomplished with a second-order
delta-sigma modulator and programmable sinc filter.
The reference input is differential and can be used for
ratiometric conversion. The on-board current DACs
(Digital-to-Analog Converters) operate independently
with the maximum current set by an external resistor.
The serial interface is SPI-compatible. Eight bits of
digital I/O are also provided that can be used for input
or output. The ADS1218 is designed for
high-resolution measurement applications in smart
transmitters, industrial process control, weight scales,
chromatography, and portable instrumentation.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated
circuits be handled with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation
procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision
integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could
cause the device not to meet its published specifications.
ORDERING INFORMATION
For the most current package and ordering information, see the Package Option Addendum at the end of this

OVERVIEW
INPUT MULTIPLEXER
The input multiplexer provides for any combination of
differential inputs to be selected on any of the input
channels, as shown in Figure 25. For example, if
channel 1 is selected as the positive differential input
channel, any other channel can be selected as the
negative differential input channel. With this method,
it is possible to have up to eight fully differential input
channels.
In addition, current sources are supplied that will
source or sink current to detect open or short circuits
on the input pins.
AVDD
Burnout Current Source On
AIN2
BURNOUT CURRENT SOURCES
INPUT BUFFER
The input impedance of the ADS1218 without the
buffer is 5MΩ/PGA. With the buffer enabled, the input
voltage range is reduced and the analog
power-supply current is higher. The buffer is
controlled by ANDing the state of the BUFEN pin with
the state of the BUFFER bit in the ACR register. See
Application Report Input Currents for High-Resolution
ADCs (SBAA090) for more information.

Figure 25. Input Multiplexer Configuration
TEMPERATURE SENSOR
An on-chip diode provides temperature sensing
capability. When the configuration register for the
input MUX is set to all 1s, the diode is connected to
the input of the A/D converter. All other channels are
16
In this mode, the output of IDAC1 is also connected
to the output pin, so some current may flow into an
external load from IDAC1, rather than the diode. See
Application Report Measuring Temperature with the
ADS1256, ADS1217, or ADS1218 (SBAA073) for
more information.
When the Burnout bit is set in the ACR configuration
register, two current sources are enabled. The current
source on the positive input channel sources
approximately 2µA of current. The current source on
the negative input channel sinks approximately 2µA.
This allows for the detection of an open circuit
(full-scale reading) or short circuit (0V differential
reading) on the selected input differential pair.

AIN1
open. The anode of the diode is connected to the
positive input of the A/D converter, and the cathode
of the diode is connected to negative input of the A/D
converter. The output of IDAC1 is connected to the
anode to bias the diode and the cathode of the diode
is also connected to ground to complete the circuit.
IDAC1 AND IDAC2
The ADS1218 has two 8-bit current output DACs that
can be controlled independently. The output current is
set with RDAC, the range select bits in the ACR
register, and the 8-bit digital value in the IDAC
register.
The output current = VREF/(8RDAC)(2RANGE–1)(DAC
CODE). With VREFOUT = 2.5V and RDAC = 150kΩ to
AGND the full-scale output can be selected to be
0.5mA, 1mA, or 2mA. The compliance voltage range
is 0V to within 1V of AVDD. When the internal voltage
reference of the ADS1218 is used, it is the reference
for the IDAC. An external reference may be used for
the IDACs by disabling the internal reference and
tying the external reference input to the VREFOUT pin.
ADS1218

SBAS187C – SEPTEMBER 2001 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2005
PGA
VRCAP PIN
The Programmable Gain Amplifier (PGA) can be set
to gains of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, or 128. Using the
PGA can improve the effective resolution of the A/D
converter. For instance, with a PGA of 1 on a 5V
full-scale range, the A/D converter can resolve to
1µV. With a PGA of 128, on a 40mV full-scale range,
the A/D converter can resolve to 75nV.
This pin provides a bypass cap for noise filtering on
internal VREF circuitry only. As this is a sensitive pin,
place the capacitor as close as possible and avoid
any resistive loading. The recommended capacitor is
a 1000pF ceramic cap. If an external VREF is used,
this pin can be left unconnected.
CLOCK GENERATOR
PGA OFFSET DAC
The input to the PGA can be shifted by half the
full-scale input range of the PGA by using the ODAC
register. The ODAC (Offset DAC) register is an 8-bit
value; the MSB is the sign and the seven LSBs
provide the magnitude of the offset. Using the ODAC
register does not reduce the performance of the A/D
converter. See Application Report The Offset DAC
(SBAA077) for more information.
The clock source for the ADS1218 can be provided
from a crystal, oscillator, or external clock. When the
clock source is a crystal, external capacitors must be
provided to ensure startup and a stable clock
frequency; see Figure 26 and Table 1.
XIN

MODULATOR

C2
The modulator is a single-loop second-order system.
The modulator runs at a clock speed (fMOD) that is
derived from the external clock (fOSC). The frequency
division is determined by the SPEED bit in the
SETUP register.

The ADS1218 uses a differential voltage reference
input. The input signal is measured against the
differential voltage VREF ≡ (VREF+) – (VREF–). For
AVDD = 5V, VREF is typically 2.5V. For AVDD = 3V,
VREF is typically 1.25V. Due to the sampling nature of
the modulator, the reference input current increases
with higher modulator clock frequency (fMOD) and
higher PGA settings.

CTS, MP 042 4M9182
ON-CHIP VOLTAGE REFERENCE
A selectable voltage reference (1.25V or 2.5V) is
available for supplying the voltage reference input. To
use, connect VREF– to AGND and VREF+ to VREFOUT.
The enabling and voltage selection are controlled
through bits REF EN and REF HI in the setup
register. The 2.5V reference requires AVDD = 5V.
When using the on-chip voltage reference, the
VREFOUT pin should be bypassed with a 0.1µF
capacitor to AGND.
CALIBRATION
The offset and gain errors in the ADS1218, or the
complete system, can be reduced with calibration.
Internal calibration of the ADS1218 is called self
calibration. This is handled with three commands.
One command does both offset and gain calibration.
There is also a gain calibration command and an
offset calibration command. Each calibration process
takes seven tDATA periods to complete. It takes 14
tDATA periods to complete both an offset and gain
calibration. Self-gain calibration is optimized for PGA
gains less than 8. When using higher gains, system
gain calibration is recommended.
For system calibration, the appropriate signal must be
applied to the inputs. The system offset command
requires a zero differential input signal. It then
computes an offset that will nullify offset in the
system. The system gain command requires a
positive full-scale differential input signal. It then
computes a value to nullify gain errors in the system.
Each of these calibrations will take seven tDATA
periods to complete.
17
ADS1218
www.ti.com
SBAS187C – SEPTEMBER 2001 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2005
Calibration must be performed after power on, a
change in decimation ratio, or a change of the PGA.
For operation with a reference voltage greater than
(AVDD– 1.5V), the buffer must also be turned off
during calibration.
At the completion of calibration, the DRDY signal
goes low, which indicates the calibration is finished
and valid data is available. See Application Report
Calibration Routine and Register Value Generation
for the ADS121x Series (SBAA099) for more
information.
DIGITAL FILTER
The Digital Filter can use either the fast settling,
sinc2, or sinc3 filter, as shown in Figure 27. In
addition, the Auto mode changes the sinc filter after
the input channel or PGA is changed. When
switching to a new channel, it will use the fast settling
filter for the next two conversions, the first of which
should be discarded. It will then use the sinc2
followed by the sinc3 filter. This combines the
low-noise advantage of the sinc3 filter with the quick
response of the fast settling time filter. See Figure 28
for the frequency response of each filter.
When using the fast setting filter, select a decimation
value set by the DEC0 and M/DEC1 registers that is
evenly divisible by four for the best gain accuracy.
For example, choose 260 rather than 261.

DIGITAL I/O INTERFACE
SERIAL PERIPHERAL INTERFACE
The ADS1218 has eight pins dedicated for digital I/O.
The default power-up condition for the digital I/O pins
are as inputs. All of the digital I/O pins are individually
configurable as inputs or outputs. They are
configured through the DIR control register. The DIR
register defines whether the pin is an input or output,
and the DIO register defines the state of the digital
output. When the digital I/O are configured as inputs,
DIO is used to read the state of the pin. If the digital
I/O are not used, either 1) configure as outputs; or 2)
leave as inputs and tie to ground; this prevents
excess power dissipation.
The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) allows a
controller to communicate synchronously with the
ADS1218. The ADS1218 operates in slave-only
mode.
Chip Select (CS)
The chip select (CS) input of the ADS1218 must be
externally asserted before a master device can
exchange data with the ADS1218. CS must be low
for the duration of the transaction. CS can be tied
low.

SCLK, a Schmitt Trigger input, clocks data transfer
on the DIN input and DOUT output. When transferring
data to or from the ADS1218, multiple bits of data
may be transferred back-to-back with no delay in
SCLKs or toggling of CS. Make sure to avoid glitches
on SCLK because they can cause extra shifting of the
data.
The operation of the device is set up through
individual registers. The set of the 16 registers
required to configure the device is referred to as a
Register Bank, as shown in Figure 29.

Polarity (POL)
The serial clock polarity is specified by the POL input.
When SCLK is active high, set POL high. When
SCLK is active low, set POL low.
DATA READY
The DRDY output is used as a status signal to
indicate when data is ready to be read from the
ADS1218. DRDY goes low when new data is
available. It is reset high when a read operation from
the data register is complete. It also goes high prior
to the updating of the output register to indicate when
not to read from the device to ensure that a data read
is not attempted while the register is being updated.

DSYNC is used to provide for synchronization of the
A/D
conversion
with
an
external
event.
Synchronization can be achieved either through the
DSYNC pin or the DSYNC command. When the
DSYNC pin is used, the filter counter is reset on the
falling edge of DSYNC. The modulator is held in reset
until DSYNC is taken high. Synchronization occurs on
the next rising edge of the system clock after DSYNC
is taken high.

MEMORY
Three types of memory are used on the ADS1218:
registers, RAM, and Flash. 16 registers directly
control the various functions (PGA, DAC value,
Decimation Ratio, etc.) and can be directly read or
written to. Collectively, the registers contain all the
information needed to configure the part, such as
data format, mux settings, calibration settings,
decimation ratio, etc. Additional registers, such as
conversion data, are accessed through dedicated
instructions.
The on-chip Flash can be used to store non-volatile
data. The Flash data is separate from the
configuration registers and therefore can be used for
any purpose, in addition to device configuration. The
Flash page data is read and written in 128 byte
blocks through the RAM banks; for example, all RAM
banks map to a single page of Flash, as shown in
Figure 29.

Figure 29. Memory Organization
RAM
Reads and Writes to Registers and RAM occur on a
byte basis. However, copies between registers and
RAM occurs on a bank basis. The RAM is
independent of the Registers; for example, the RAM
can be used as general-purpose RAM.
The ADS1218 supports any combination of eight
analog inputs. With this flexibility, the device could
easily support eight unique configurations—one per
input channel. In order to facilitate this type of usage,
eight separate register banks are available.
Therefore, each configuration could be written once
and recalled as needed without having to serially
retransmit all the configuration data. Checksum
commands are also included, which can be used to
verify the integrity of RAM.

SBAS187C – SEPTEMBER 2001 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2005
The RAM provides eight banks, with a bank
consisting of 16 bytes. The total size of the RAM is
128 bytes. Copies between the registers and RAM
are performed on a bank basis. Also, the RAM can
be directly read or written through the serial interface
on power-up. The banks allow separate storage of
settings for each input.
The RAM address space is linear; therefore,
accessing RAM is done using an auto-incrementing
pointer. Access to RAM in the entire memory map
can be done consecutively without having to address
each bank individually. For example, if you were
currently accessing bank 0 at offset 0xF (the last
location of bank 0), the next access would be bank 1
and offset 0x0. Any access after bank 7 and offset
0xF will wrap around to bank 0 and Offset 0x0.
Although the Register Bank memory is linear, the
concept of addressing the device can also be thought
of in terms of bank and offset addressing. Looking at
linear and bank addressing syntax, we have the
following comparison: in the linear memory map, the
address 0x14 is equivalent to bank 1 and offset 0x4.
Simply stated, the most significant four bits represent
the bank, and the least significant four bits represent
the offset. The offset is equivalent to the register
address for that bank of memory.
FLASH
Reads and Writes to Flash occur on a Page basis.
Therefore, the entire contents of RAM is used for
both Read and Write operations. The Flash is
independent of the Registers; for example, the Flash
can be used as general-purpose Flash.
Upon power-up or reset, the contents of Flash Page 0
are loaded into RAM. Subsequently, the contents of
RAM Bank 0 are loaded into the configuration
register. Therefore, the user can customize the
power-up configuration for the device. Care should be
taken to ensure that data for Flash Page 0 is written
correctly, in order to prevent unexpected operation
upon power-up.
The ADS1218 supports any combination of eight
analog inputs and the Flash memory supports up to
32 unique Page configurations. With this flexibility,
the device could support 32 unique configurations for
each of the eight analog input channels. For instance,
the on-chip temperature sensor could be used to
monitor temperature, then different calibration
coefficients could be recalled for each of the eight
analog input channels based on the change in
temperature. This would enable the user to recall
calibration coefficients for every 4°C change in
temperature over the industrial temperature range,
which could be used to correct for drift errors.
Checksum commands are also included, which can
be used to verify the integrity of Flash.
The following two commands can be used to
manipulate the Flash. First, the contents of Flash can
be written to with the WR2F (write RAM to Flash)
command. This command first erases the designated
Flash page and then writes the entire content of RAM
(all banks) into the designated Flash page. Second,
the contents of Flash can be read with the RF2R
(read Flash to RAM) command. This command reads
the designated Flash page into the entire contents of
RAM (all banks). In order to ensure maximum
endurance and data retention, the SPEED bit in the
SETUP register must be set for the appropriate fOSC
frequency.
Writing to or erasing Flash can be disabled either
through the WREN pin or the WREN register bit. If
the WREN pin is low OR the WREN bit is cleared,
then the WR2F command has no effect. This protects
the integrity of the Flash data from being
inadvertently corrupted.
Accessing the Flash data either through read, write,
or erase may affect the accuracy of the conversion
result. Therefore, the conversion result should be
discarded when accesses to Flash are done.

The commands listed below control the operation of
the ADS1218. Some of the commands are
stand-alone commands (e.g., RESET) while others
require additional bytes (e.g., WREG requires
command, count, and the data bytes). Commands
that output data require a minimum of four fOSC cycles
before the data is ready (e.g., RDATA).
Operands: n = count (0 to 127)
r = register (0 to 15)
x = don’t care
a = RAM bank address (0 to 7)
f = Flash memory page address (0 to 31)

DEFINITION OF RULES
Analog Input Voltage—the voltage at any one
analog input relative to AGND.
Analog Input Differential Voltage—given by the
following equation: (AIN+) – (AIN–). Thus, a positive
digital output is produced whenever the analog input
differential voltage is positive, while a negative digital
output is produced whenever the differential is
negative.
The data from the A/D converter is output as codes,
which then can be easily converted to other units,
such as ppm or volts. The equations and table below
show the relationship between bits or codes, ppm,
and volts.
−20 log(ppm)
ENOB 6.02
BITS rms
For example, when the converter is configured with a
2.5V reference and placed in a gain setting of 1, the
positive full-scale output is produced when the analog
input differential is 2.5V. The negative full-scale
output is produced when the differential is –2.5V. In
each case, the actual input voltages must remain
within the AGND to AVDD range.
Conversion Cycle—the term conversion cycle
usually refers to a discrete A/D conversion operation,
such as that performed by a successive
approximation converter. As used here, a conversion
cycle refers to the tDATA time period. However, each
digital output is actually based on the modulator
results from several tDATA time periods.

MODULATOR RESULTS
Fast Settling
1 tDATA Time Period
Sinc2
2 tDATA Time Period
Sinc3
3 tDATA Time Period
Data Rate—the rate at which conversions are
completed. See definition for fDATA.
Decimation Ratio—defines the ratio between the
output of the modulator and the output Data Rate.
Valid values for the Decimation Ratio are from 20 to
2047. Larger Decimation Ratios will have lower noise.
Effective Resolution—the effective resolution of the
ADS1218 in a particular configuration can be
expressed in two different units: bits rms (referenced
to output) and Vrms (referenced to input). Computed
directly from the converter’s output data, each is a
statistical calculation. The conversion from one to the
other is shown below.
Effective number of bits (ENOB) or effective
resolution is commonly used to define the usable
resolution of the A/D converter. It is calculated from
empirical data taken directly from the device. It is
typically determined by applying a fixed known signal
source to the analog input and computing the
standard deviation of the data sample set. The rms
noise defines the ±σ interval about the sample mean.

www.ti.com
SBAS187C – SEPTEMBER 2001 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2005
Filter Selection—the ADS1218 uses a (sinx/x) filter
or sinc filter. There are three different sinc filters that
can be selected. A fast settling filter will settle in one
tDATA cycle. The sinc2 filter will settle in two cycles
and have lower noise. The sinc3 will achieve lowest
noise and higher number of effective bits, but
requires three cycles to settle. The ADS1218 will
operate with any one of these filters, or it can operate
in an auto mode, where it will first select the fast
settling filter after a new channel is selected for two
readings and will then switch to sinc2 for one reading,
followed by sinc3 from then on.
For example, when the converter is configured with a
2.5V reference and is placed in a gain setting of 2,
the full-scale range is: [1.25V (positive full-scale) –
(–1.25V (negative full-scale))] = 2.5V.
Full-Scale Range (FSR)—as with most A/D
converters, the full-scale range of the ADS1218 is
defined as the input, which produces the positive
full-scale digital output minus the input, which
produces the negative full-scale digital output. The
full-scale range changes with gain setting; see
Table 5.
where N is the number of bits in the digital output.
Least Significant Bit (LSB) Weight—this is the
theoretical amount of voltage that the differential
voltage at the analog input would have to change in
order to observe a change in the output data of one
least significant bit. It is computed as follows:
Full−Scale Range
LSB Weight 2N
tDATA—the inverse of fDATA, or the period between
each data output.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
