MCP300X 10-Bit Analog-to-Digital Converters Product Information The Microchip MCP300X family of 10-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) combines high performance and low power consumption in a small package – making it ideal for embedded control applications. Consisting of the MCP3001, MCP3002, MCP3004 and MCP3008, the MCP300X family features a successive approximation register (SAR) architecture and an industrystandard SPITM serial interface. Devices are available with 1, 2, 4 or 8 input channels and in PDIP, SOIC and TSSOP packages. The MCP300X family offers existing Microchip customers added flexibility when incorporating analog inputs into their designs. The industry standard SPI interface allows 10-bit ADC capability to be added to any PICmicro® microcontroller. In addition, new customers will find the performance and price of the MCP300X family very attractive. Applications for the MCP300X family include data acquisition, instrumentation and measurement, multichannel data loggers, industrial PCs, motor control, robotics, industrial automation, smart sensors, portable instrumentation and home medical appliances.
