TI LMP90100

Sensor AFE System: Multi-Channel, Low Power 24-Bit
Sensor AFE with True Continuous Background Calibration
1.0 General Description
The LMP90100/LMP90099/LMP90098/LMP90097 are highly
integrated, multi-channel, low power 24-bit Sensor AFEs. The
devices features a precision, 24-bit Sigma Delta Analog-toDigital Converter (ADC) with a low-noise programmable gain
amplifier and a fully differential high impedance analog input
multiplexer. A true continuous background calibration feature
allows calibration at all gains and output data rates without
interrupting the signal path. The background calibration feature essentially eliminates gain and offset errors across temperature and time, providing measurement accuracy without
sacrificing speed and power consumption.
Another feature of the LMP90100/LMP90099/LMP90098/
LMP90097 is continuous background sensor diagnostics, allowing the detection of open and short circuit conditions and
out-of-range signals, without requiring user intervention, resulting in enhanced system reliability.
Two sets of independent external reference voltage pins allow
multiple ratiometric measurements. In addition, two matched
programmable current sources are available in the
LMP90100/LMP90098 to excite external sensors such as resistive temperature detectors and bridge sensors. Furthermore, seven GPIO pins are provided for interfacing to external
LEDs and switches to simplify control across an isolation barrier.
Collectively, these features make the LMP90100/LMP90099/
LMP90098/LMP90097 complete analog front-ends for low
power, precision sensor applications such as temperature,
pressure, strain gauge, and industrial process control. The
LMP90100/LMP90099/LMP90098/LMP90097 are guaranteed over the extended temperature range of -40°C to +125°
C and are available in a 28-pin TSSOP package.

bridge sensors. The LMP90100/LMP90099’s multiplexer supports 4 differential channels while the LMP90098/LMP90097
supports 2. Each effective input voltage that is digitized is VIN
= VINx – VINy, where x and y are any input. In addition, the
input multiplexer of the LMP90100/LMP90099 also supports
7 single-ended channels (LMP90098/LMP90097 supports 4),
where the common ground is any one of the inputs.
• True Continuous Background Calibration
The LMP90100/LMP90099/LMP90098/LMP90097 feature a
24 bit ΣΔ core with continuous background calibration to compensate for gain and offset errors in the ADC, virtually eliminating any drift with time and temperature. The calibration is
performed in the background without user or ADC input interruption, making it unique in the industry and eliminating
down time associated with field calibration required with other
solutions. Having this continuous calibration improves performance over the entire life span of the end product.
• Programmable Gain Amplifiers (FGA & PGA)
The LMP90100/LMP90099/LMP90098/LMP90097 contain
an internal 16x fixed gain amplifier (FGA) and a 1x, 2x, 4x, or
8x programmable gain amplifier (PGA). This allows accurate
gain settings of 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x, 64x, or 128x through
configuration of internal registers. Having an internal amplifier
eliminates the need for external amplifiers that are costly,
space consuming, and difficult to calibrate.
• Continuous Background Sensor Diagnostics
Sensor diagnostics are also performed in the background,
without interfering with signal path performance, allowing the
detection of sensor shorts, opens, and out-of-range signals,
which vastly improves system reliability. In addition, the fully
flexible input multiplexer described below allows any input pin
to be connected to any ADC input channel providing additional sensor path diagnostic capability.
• Excitation Current Sources (IB1 & IB2) - LMP90100/
LMP90098
Two matched internal excitation currents, IB1 and IB2, can be
used for sourcing currents to a variety of sensors. The current
range is from 100 µA to 1000 µA in steps of 100 µA.
• Flexible Input MUX Channels
The flexible input MUX allows interfacing to a wide range of
sensors such as thermocouples, RTDs, thermistors, and

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: When the input voltage (VIN) exceeds the power supply (VIN < GND or VIN > VA), the current at that pin must be limited to 5mA and VIN has to be within
the Absolute Maximum Rating for that pin. The 20 mA package input current rating limits the number of pins that can safely exceed the power supplies with current
flow to four pins.
Note 4: The maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(MAX) AND θJA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is PD = (TJ
(MAX) - TA) / θJA.
Note 5: This parameter is guaranteed by design and/or characterization and is not tested in production.

COMMON MODE REJECTION RATIO is a measure of how
well in-phase signals common to both input pins are rejected.
To calculate CMRR, the change in output offset is measured
while the common mode input voltage is changed.
CMRR = 20 LOG(ΔCommon Input / ΔOutput Offset)
EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF BITS (ENOB, or EFFECTIVE
BITS) – says that the converter is equivalent to a perfect ADC
of this (ENOB) number of bits. LMP90100’s ENOB is a DC
ENOB spec, not the dynamic ENOB that is measured using
FFT and SINAD. Its equation is as follows:
ODR Output Data Rate.
OFFSET ERROR is the difference between the differential
input voltage at which the output code transitions from code
0000h to 0001h and 1 LSB.
POSITIVE FULL-SCALE ERROR is the difference between
the differential input voltage at which the output code transitions to positive full scale and (VREF – 1LSB).
POSITIVE GAIN ERROR is the difference between the positive full-scale error and the offset error divided by (VREF /
Gain).
POWER SUPPLY REJECTION RATIO (PSRR) is a measure
of how well a change in the analog supply voltage is rejected.
PSRR is calculated from the ratio of the change in offset error
for a given change in supply voltage, expressed in dB.
PSRR = 20 LOG (ΔVA / ΔOutput Offset)
GAIN ERROR is the deviation from the ideal slope of the
transfer function.
INTEGRAL NON-LINEARITY (INL) is a measure of the deviation of each individual code from a straight line through the
input to output transfer function. The deviation of any given
code from this straight line is measured from the center of that
code value. The end point fit method is used. INL for this
product is specified over a limited range, per the Electrical
Tables.
NEGATIVE FULL-SCALE ERROR is the difference between
the differential input voltage at which the output code transitions to negative full scale and (-VREF + 1LSB).

LMP90100/LMP90099/LMP90098/LMP90097
NEGATIVE GAIN ERROR is the difference between the negative full-scale error and the offset error divided by (VREF /
Gain).
NOISE FREE RESOLUTION is a method of specifying the
number of bits for a converter with noise.

programming the VREF_SEL bit in the CHx_INPUTCN registers (CHx_INPUTCN: VREF_SEL). The default mode is
VREF1. If VREF2 is used, then VIN6 and VIN7 cannot be
used as inputs because they share the same pin.
Refer to Section 17.2.2 VREF for VREF applications information.
16.0 Functional Description
Throughout this datasheet, the LMP90100/LMP90099/
LMP90098/LMP90097 will be referred to as the LMP90xxx.
The LMP90xxx is a low-power 24-Bit ΣΔ ADC with 4 fully differential / 7 single-ended analog channels for the LMP90100/
LMP90099 and 2 full differential / 4 single-ended for the
LMP90098/LMP90097. Its serial data output is two’s complement format. The output data rate (ODR) ranges from 1.6775
SPS to 214.65 SPS.
The serial communication for LMP90xxx is SPI, a synchronous serial interface that operates using 4 pins: chip
select bar (CSB), serial clock (SCLK), serial data in (SDI), and
serial data out / data ready bar (SDO/DRYDYB).
True continuous built-in offset and gain background calibration is also available to improve measurement accuracy. Unlike other ADCs, the LMP90xxx’s background calibration can
run without heavily impacting the input signal. This unique
technique allows for positive as well as negative gain calibration and is available at all gain settings.
The registers can be found in Section 18.0 Registers, and a
detailed description of the LMP90xxx are provided in the following sections.
16.1.2 Flexible Input MUX (VIN)
LMP90xxx provides a flexible input MUX as shown in Figure
3. The input that is digitized is VIN = VINP – VINN; where
VINP and VINN can be any availablie input.
The digitized input is also known as a channel, where
CH = VIN = VINP – VINN. Thus, there are a maximum of 4
differential channels: CH0, CH1, CH2, and CH3 for the
LMP90100/LMP90099. The LMP90098/LMP90097 has a
maximum of 2 differential channels: CH0 and CH1 because
it does not have access to the VIN3, VIN4, and VIN5 pins.
LMP90xxx can also be configured single-endedly, where the
common ground is any one of the inputs. There are a maximum of 7 single-ended channels: CH0, CH1, CH2, CH3, CH4,
CH5, and CH6 for the LMP90100/LMP90099 and 4: CH0,
CH1, CH2, CH3 for the LMP90098/LMP90097.
The input MUX can be programmed in the CHx_INPUTCN
registers. For example on the LMP90100, to program CH0 =
VIN = VIN4 – VIN1, go to the CH0_INPUTCN register and set:
1. VINP = 0x4
2. VINN = 0x1
16.1 SIGNAL PATH
16.1.1 Reference Input (VREF)
The differential reference voltage VREF (VREFP – VREFN)
sets the range for VIN.
The muxed VREF allows the user to choose between VREF1
or VREF2 for each channel. This selection can be made by
30139577

16.1.5 Internal/External CLK Selection
LMP90xxx allows two clock options: internal CLK or external
CLK (crystal (XTAL) or clock source).
There is an “External Clock Detection” mode, which detects
the external XTAL if it is connected to XOUT and XIN. When
operating in this mode, the LMP90xxx shuts off the internal
clock to reduce power consumption. Below is a flow chart to
help set the appropriate clock registers.
16.1.4 Buffer (BUFF)
There is an internal unity gain buffer that can be included or
excluded from the signal path. Including the buffer provides a
high input impedance but increases the power consumption.
30139578
FIGURE 4. CLK Register Settings
The recommended value for the external CLK is discussed in
the next sections.
case, use the equation below to calculate the new ODR values.
16.1.6 Programmable ODRs
If using the internal CLK or external CLK of 3.5717 MHz, then
the output date rates (ODR) can be selected (using the
ODR_SEL bit) as:
1. 13.42/8 = 1.6775 SPS
2. 13.42/4 = 3.355 SPS
3. 13.42/2 = 6.71SPS
4. 13.42 SPS
5. 214.65/8 = 26.83125 SPS
6. 214.65/4 = 53.6625 SPS
7. 214.65/2 = 107.325 SPS
8. 214.65 SPS (default)
If the internal CLK is not being used and the external CLK is
not 3.5717 MHz, then the ODR will be different. If this is the
ODR_Base1 = (CLKEXT) / (266,240)
ODR_Base2 = (CLKEXT) / (16,640)
ODR1 = (ODR_Base1) / n, where n = 1,2,4,8
ODR2 = (ODR_Base2) / n, where n = 1,2,4,8
For example, a 3.6864 MHz XTAL or external clock has the
following ODR values:
ODR_Base1 = (3.6864 MHz) / (266,240) = 13.85 SPS
ODR_Base2 = (3.6864 MHz) / (16,640) = 221.54 SPS
ODR1 = (13.85 SPS) / n = 13.85, 6.92, 3.46, 1.73 SPS
ODR2 = (221.54 SPS) / n = 221.54, 110.77, 55.38, 27.69 SPS

LMP90100/LMP90099/LMP90098/LMP90097
When gain ≥ 16, the buffer is automatically included in the
signal path. When gain < 16, including or excluding the buffer
from the signal path can be done by programming the
CHX_CONFIG: BUF_EN bit.
16.1.3 Selectable Gains (FGA & PGA)
LMP90xxx provides two types of gain amplifiers: a fixed gain
amplifier (FGA) and a programmable gain amplifier (PGA).
FGA has a fixed gain of 16x or it can be bypassed, while the
PGA has programmable gain settings of 1x, 2x, 4x, or 8x.
Total gain is defined as FGA x PGA. Thus, LMP90xxx provides gain settings of 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x, 64x, or 128x
with true continuous background calibration.
The gain is channel specific, which means that one channel
can have one gain, while another channel can have the same
or a different gain.
The gain can be selected by programming the CHx_CONFIG:
GAIN_SEL bits.
scanning. For example, if the ADC were running at 214.65
SPS and four channels are being scanned, then the ODR per
channel would be 214.65/4 = 53.6625 SPS.
16.1.7 Digital Filter
The LMP90xxx has a fourth order rotated sinc filter that is used to configure various ODRs and to reject power supply frequencies
of 50Hz and 60Hz. The 50/60 Hz rejection is only effective when the device is operating at ODR ≤ 13.42 SPS. If the internal CLK
or the external CLK of 3.5717 MHz is used, then the LMP90xxx will have the frequency response shown in Figure 5 to Figure 9.

16.2 CALIBRATION
As seen in Figure 12, there are two types of calibration: background calibration and system calibration. These calibrations
are further described in the next sections.
30139579
FIGURE 12. Types of Calibration
Figure 12 also shows that there are two types of background
calibration:
1. Type 1: Correction - the process of continuously
determining and applying the offset and gain calibration
coefficients to the output codes to minimize the
LMP90xxx’s offset and gain errors.
This method keeps track of changes in the LMP90xxx's
gain and offset errors due to changes in the operating
condition such as voltage, temperature, or time.
2. Type 2: Estimation - the process of determining and
continuously applying the last known offset and gain
16.2.1 Background Calibration
Background calibration is the process of continuously determining and applying the offset and gain calibration coefficients to the output codes to minimize the LMP90xxx’s offset
and gain errors. Background calibration is a feature built into
the LMP90xxx and is automatically done by the hardware
without interrupting the input signal.
Four differential channels, CH0-CH3, each with its own gain
and ODRs, can be calibrated to improve the accuracy.
Types of Background Calibration:

LMP90100/LMP90099/LMP90098/LMP90097
Figure 11 shows a flowchart how these GPIOs can be programmed.
16.1.8 GPIO (D0–D6)
Pins D0-D6 are general purpose input/output (GPIO) pins that
can be used to control external LEDs or switches. Only a high
or low value can be sourced to or read from each pin.
LMP90100/LMP90099/LMP90098/LMP90097
calibration coefficients to the output codes to minimize
the LMP90xxx’s offset and gain errors.
The last known offset or gain calibration coefficients can
come from two sources. The first source is the default
coefficient which is pre-determined and burnt in the
device’s non-volatile memory. The second source is from
a previous calibration run of Type 1: Correction.
The benefits of using type 2 calibration is a higher throughput,
lower power consumption, and slightly better noise. The exact
savings would depend on the number of channels being
scanned, and the ODR and gain of each channel.
16.2.2 System Calibration
The LMP90xxx provides some unique features to support
easy system offset and system gain calibrations.
The System Calibration Offset Registers (CHx_SCAL_OFFSET) hold the System Calibration Offset Coefficients in 24bit, two's complement binary format. The System Calibration
Gain Registers (CHx_SCAL_GAIN) hold the System Calibration Gain Coefficient in 24-bit, 1.23, unsigned, fixed-point
binary format. For each channel, the System Calibration Offset coefficient is subtracted from the conversion result prior
to the division by the System Calibration Gain Coefficient.
A data-flow diagram of these coefficients can be seen in Figure 14.
Using Background Calibration:
There are four modes of background calibration, which can
be programmed using the BGCALCN bits. They are as follows:
1. BgcalMode0: Background Calibration OFF
2. BgcalMode1: Offset Correction / Gain Estimation
3. BgcalMode2: Offset Correction / Gain Correction
Follow Figure 13 to set other appropriate registers when
using this mode.
4. BgcalMode3: Offset Estimation / Gain Estimation
30139531
FIGURE 14. System Calibration Data-Flow Diagram
There are four distinct sets of System Calibration Offset and
System Calibration Gain Registers for use with CH0-CH3.
CH4-CH6 reuse the registers of CH0-CH2, respectively.
The LMP90xxx provides two system calibration modes that
automatically fill the Offset and Gain coefficients for each
channel. These modes are the System Calibration Offset Coefficient Determination mode and the System Calibration
Gain Coefficient Determination mode. The System Calibration Offset Coefficient Determination mode must be entered
prior to the System Calibration Gain Coefficient Determination mode, for each channel.
The system zero-scale condition is a system input condition
(sensor loading) for which zero (0x00_0000) system-calibrated output code is desired. It may not, however, cause a zero
input voltage at the input of the ADC.
The system reference-scale condition is usually the system
full-scale condition in which the system's input (or sensor's
loading) would be full-scale and the desired system-calibrated output code would be 0x80_0000 (unsigned 24-bit binary).
However, system full-scale condition need not cause fullscale input voltage at the input of the ADC.
The system reference-scale condition is not restricted to just
the system full-scale condition. In fact, it can be any arbitrary
fraction of full-scale (up to 1.25 times) and the desired systemcalibrated output code can be any appropriate value (up to
0xA00000). The CHx_SCAL_GAIN register must be written
with the desired system-calibrated output code (default:
0x800000) before entering the System Calibration Gain Coefficient Determination mode. This helps in in-place system
calibration.
Below are the detailed procedures for using the System Calibration Offset Coefficient Determination and System Calibration Gain Coefficient Determination modes.

FIGURE 13. BgcalMode2 Register Settings
If operating in BgcalMode2, four channels (with the same
ODR) are being converted, and FGA_BGCAL = 0 (default),
then the ODR is reduced by:

2. 0.39% of 3.355 SPS
3. 0.78% of 6.71 SPS

Enter the System Calibration Offset Coefficient
Determination mode by programming 0x1 in the
SCALCN register.
LMP90xxx starts a fresh conversion at the selected
output data rate for the selected channel. At the end of
the conversion, the CHx_SCAL_OFFSET register is
filled-in with the System Calibration Offset coefficient.
The System Calibration Offset Coefficient Determination
mode is automatically exited.
The computed calibration coefficient is accurate only to
the effective resolution of the device and will probably
contain some noise. The noise factor can be minimized
by computing over many times, averaging (externally)
and putting the resultant value back into the register.
Alternatively, select the output data rate to be 26.83 sps
or 1.67 sps.

FIGURE 15. Post-calibration Scaling Data-Flow Diagram
16.3 CHANNELS SCAN MODE
There are four scan modes. These scan modes are selected
using the CH_SCAN: CH_SCAN_SEL bit. The first scanned
channel is FIRST_CH, and the last scanned channel is
LAST_CH; they are both located in the CH_SCAN register.
The CH_SCAN register is double buffered. That is, user inputs are stored in a slave buffer until the start of the next
conversion during which time they are transferred to the master buffer. Once the slave buffer is written, subsequent updates are disregarded until a transfer to the master buffer
happens. Hence, it may be appropriate to check the
CH_SCAN_NRDY bit before programming the CH_SCAN
register.
System Calibration Gain Coefficient Determination mode
1. Repeat the System Calibration Offset Coefficient
Determination mode to calibrate for the channel's system
offset.
2. Apply the system reference-scale condition to the
channel CH0/CH1/CH2/CH3.
3. In the CHx_SCAL_GAIN Register, program the expected
(desired) system-calibrated output code for this condition
in 24-bit unsigned format.
4. Enter the System Calibration Gain Coefficient
Determination mode by programming 0x3 in the
SCALCN register.
5. LMP90xxx starts a fresh conversion at the selected
output data rate for the channel. At the end of the
conversion, the CHx_SCAL_GAIN is filled-in (or
overwritten) with the System Calibration Gain coefficient.
6. The System Calibration Gain Coefficient Determination
mode is automatically exited.
7. The computed calibration coefficient is accurate only to
the effective resolution of the device and will probably
contain some noise. The noise factor can be minimized
by computing over many times, averaging (externally)
and putting the resultant value back into the register.
Alternatively, select the output data rate to be 26.83 sps
or 1.67 sps.
ScanMode0: Single-Channel Continuous Conversion
LMP90xxx continuously converts the selected FIRST_CH.
Do not operate in this scan mode if gain ≥ 16 and the LMP90xxx is running in background calibration modes BgcalMode1 or BgcalMode2. If this is the case, then it is more
suitable to operate the device in ScanMode2 instead.
ScanMode1: Multiple-Channels Single Scan
LMP90xxx converts one or more channels starting from
FIRST_CH to LAST_CH, and then enters the stand-by state.
ScanMode2: Multiple-Channels Continuous Scan
LMP90xxx continuously converts one or more channels starting from FIRST_CH to LAST_CH, and then it repeats this
process.
Post-calibration Scaling
LMP90xxx allows scaling (multiplication and shifting) for the
System Calibrated result. This eases downstream processing, if any. Multiplication is done using the System Calibration
Scaling Coefficient in the CHx_SCAL_SCALING register and
shifting is done using the System Calibration Bits Selector in
the CHx_SCAL_BITS_SELECTOR register.
The System Calibration Bits Selector value should ideally be
the logarithm (to the base 2) of the System Calibration Scaling
Coefficient value.
There are four distinct sets of System Calibration Scaling and
System Calibration Bits Selector Registers for use with Channels 0-3. Channels 4-6 reuse the registers of Channels 0-2,
respectively.
A data-flow diagram of these coefficients can be seen in Figure 15
ScanMode3: Multiple-Channels Continuous Scan with
Burnout Currents
This mode is the same as ScanMode2 except that the burnout
current is provided in a serially scanned fashion (injected in a
channel after it has undergone a conversion). Thus it avoids
burnout current injection from interfering with the conversion
result for the channel.
The sensor diagnostic burnout currents are available for all
four scan modes. The burnout current is further gated by the
BURNOUT_EN bit for each channel. ScanMode3 is the only
mode that scans multiple channels while injecting burnout
currents without interfering with the signal. This is described
in details in Section 16.4.2 Burnout Currents.

16.4 SENSOR INTERFACE
LMP90100/LMP90098 contain two types of current sources:
excitation currents (IB1 & IB2) and burnout currents. They are
described in the next sections.
Burnout Current Injection:
Burnout currents are injected differently depending on the
channel scan mode selected.
When BURNOUT_EN = 1 and the device is operating in
ScanMode0, 1, or 2, the burnout currents are injected into all
the channels for which the BURNOUT_EN bit is selected.
This will cause problems and hence in this mode, more than
one channel should not have its BURNOUT_EN bit selected.
Also, the burnout current will interfere with the signal and introduce a fixed error depending on the particular external
sensor.
When BURNOUT_EN = 1 and the device is operating in
ScanMode3, burnout currents are injected into the last sampled channel on a cyclical basis (Figure 17). In this mode,
burnout currents injection is truly done in the background
without affecting the accuracy of the on-going conversion.
Operating in this mode is recommended.
16.4.1 IB1 & IB2 - Excitation Currents
IB1 and IB2 can be used for providing currents to external
sensors, such as RTDs or bridge sensors. 100µA to 1000µA,
in steps of 100µA, can be sourced by programming the
ADC_AUXCN: RTD_CUR_SEL bits.
Refer to Section 17.6.1 3–Wire RTD to see how IB1 and IB2
can be used to source a 3-wire RTD.
16.4.2 Burnout Currents
As shown in Figure 16, the LMP90xxx contains two internal
10 µA burnout current sources, one sourcing current from VA
to VINP, and the other sinking current from VINN to ground.
These currents are used for sensor diagnostics and can be
enabled for each channel using the CHx_INPUTCN:
BURNOUT_EN bit.
30139581
FIGURE 17. Burnout Currents Injection for ScanMode3
16.4.3 Sensor Diagnostic Flags
Burnout currents can be used to verify that an external sensor
is still operational before attempting to make measurements
on that channel. A non-operational sensor means that there
is a possibility the connection between the sensor and the
LMP90xxx is open circuited, short circuited, shorted to VA or
GND, overloaded, or the reference may be absent. The sensor diagnostic flags diagram can be seen in Figure 18.

FIGURE 18. Sensor Diagnostic Flags Diagram
The sensor diagnostic flags are located in the
SENDIAG_FLAGS register and are described in further details below.
POR_AFT_LST_RD:
If POR_AFT_LST_READ = 1, then there was a power-on reset since the last time the SENDIAG_FLAGS register was
read. This flag's status is cleared when this bit is read, unless
this bit is set again on account of another power-on-reset
event in the intervening period.
SHORT_THLD_FLAG:
The short circuit threshold flag is used to report a short-circuit
condition. It is set when the output voltage (VOUT) is within
the absolute Vthreshold. Vthreshold can be programmed using the 8-bit SENDIAG_THLDH register concatenated with
the 8-bit SENDIAG_THLDL register.
For example, assume VREF = 5V, gain = 1,
SENDIAG_THLDH = 0xFA, and SENDIAG_THLDL = 0x45.
In this case, Dthreshold = 0xFA45 = 64069d, and Vthreshold
can be calculated as:
OFLO_FLAGS:
OFLO_FLAGS is used to indicate whether the modulator is
over-ranged or under-ranged. The following conditions are
possible:
1. OFLO_FLAGS = 0x0: Normal Operation
2. OFLO_FLAGS = 0x1: The differential input is more than
(±VREF/Gain) but is not more than ±(1.3*VREF/Gain) to
cause a modulator over-range.
3. OFLO_FLAGS = 0x2: The modulator was over-ranged
towards +VREF/Gain.
4. OFLO_FLAGS = 0x3: The modulator was over-ranged
towards −VREF/Gain.
The condition of OFLO_FLAGS = 10b or 11b can be used in
conjunction with the RAILS_FLAG to determine the fault condition.
Vthreshold = [(Dthreshold)(2)(VREF)] / [(Gain)(224)]
Vthreshold = [(64069)(2)(5V)] / [(1)(224)]
Vthreshold = 38.2 mV
When
(-38.2mV)
≤ VOUT ≤ (38.2mV), then
SHORT_THLD_FLAG = 1; otherwise, SHORT_THLD_FLAG
= 0.
RAILS_FLAG:
The rails flag is used to detect if one of the sampled channels
is within 50mV of the rails potential (VA or VSS). This can be
further investigated to detect an open-circuit or short-circuit
condition. If the sampled channel is near a rail, then
RAILS_FLAG = 1; otherwise, RAILS_FLAG = 0.
SAMPLED_CH:
These three bits show the channel number for which the
ADC_DOUT and SENDIAG_FLAGS are available. This does
not necessarily indicate the current channel under conversion
because the conversion frame and computation of results
from the channels are pipelined. That is, while the conversion
is going on for a particular channel, the results for the previous
conversion (of the same or a different channel) are available.

16.5 SERIAL DIGITAL INTERFACE
A synchronous 4-wire serial peripheral interface (SPI) provides access to the internal registers of LMP90xxx via CSB,
SCLK, SDI, SDO/DRDYB.
16.5.2 Register Read/Write Protocol
Figure 19 shows the protocol how to write to or read from a
register.
Transaction 1 sets up the upper register address (URA)
where the user wants to start the register-write or registerread.
Transaction 2 sets the lower register address (LRA) and includes the Data Byte(s), which contains the incoming data
from the master or outgoing data from the LMP90xxx.
Examples of register-reads or register-writes can be found in
Section 17.4 REGISTER READ/WRITE EXAMPLES.
16.5.1 Register Address (ADDR)
All registers are memory-mapped. A register address (ADDR)
is composed of an upper register address (URA) and lower
register address (LRA) as shown in ADDR Map. For example,
ADDR 0x3A has URA=0x3 and LRA=0xA.

0x1F, 0x20, 0x21. Once the data reaches ADDR 0x21, LMP90xxx will wrap back to ADDR 0x1C and repeat this process
until CSB deasserts. See Section 17.5.2 Controlled Streaming Example for an example of the Controlled Streaming
mode.
If streaming reaches ADDR 0x7F, then it will wrap back to
ADDR 0x00. Furthermore, reading back the Upper Register
Address after streaming will report the Upper Register Address at the start of streaming, not the Upper Register Address at the end of streaming.
To stream, write 0x3 to INST2’s SZ bits as seen in Figure
19. To select the stream type, program the SPI_STREAMCN:
STRM_TYPE bit. The STRM_RANGE can also be programmed in the same register.
16.5.3 Streaming
When writing/reading 3+ bytes, the user must operate the device in Normal Streaming mode or Controlled Streaming
mode. In the Normal Streaming mode, which is the default
mode, data runs continuously starting from ADDR until CSB
deasserts. This mode is especially useful when programming
all the configuration registers in a single transaction. See
Section 17.5.1 Normal Streaming Example for an example of
the Normal Streaming mode.
In the Controlled Streaming mode, data runs continuously
starting from ADDR until the data has run through all
(STRM_RANGE + 1) registers. For example, if the starting
ADDR is 0x1C, STRM_RANGE = 5, then data will be written
to or read from the following ADDRs: 0x1C, 0x1D, 0x1E,
www.ti.com
32
16.5.6 DRDYB - Data Ready Bar
DRDYB is a signal generated by the LMP90xxx that indicates
a fresh conversion data is available in the ADC_DOUT registers.
DRDYB is automatically asserted every (1/ODR) second and
deasserts when ADC_DOUT is completely read out (LSB of
ADC_DOUTL) ().
16.5.5 SPI Reset
SPI Reset resets the SPI-Protocol State Machine by monitoring the SDI for at least 73 consecutive 1's at each SCLK
30139584
FIGURE 20. DRDYB Behavior for a Complete ADC_DOUT Reading
If ADC_DOUT is not completely read out (Figure 21) or is not
read out at all, but a new ADC_DOUT is available, then
DRDYB will automatically pulse for tDRDYB second. The value
for tDRDYB can be found in Section 13.0 Timing Diagrams.
30139585
FIGURE 21. DRDYB Behavior for an ADC_DOUT not Read
If ADC_DOUT is being read, while the new ADC_DOUT becomes available, then the ADC_DOUT that is being read is
still valid(Figure 22). DRDYB will be deasserted at the LSB of
the data being read, but a consecutive read on the
ADC_DOUT register will fetch the newly converted data available.

rising edge. After an SPI Reset, SDI is monitored for a possible Write Instruction at each SCLK rising edge.
SPI Reset will reset the Upper Address Register (URA) to 0,
but the register contents are not reset.
By default, SPI reset is disabled, but it can be enabled by
writing 0x01 to SPI Reset Register (ADDR 0x02).
16.5.4 CSB - Chip Select Bar
An SPI transaction begins when the master asserts (active
low) CSB and ends when the master deasserts (active high)
CSB. Each transaction might be separated by a subsequent
one with a CSB deassertion, but this is optional. Once CSB
is asserted, it must not pulse (deassert and assert again) during a (desired) transaction.
CSB can be grounded in systems where LMP90xxx is the only
SPI slave. This frees the software from handling the CSB.
Care has to be taken to avoid any false edge on SCLK, and
while operating in this mode, the streaming transaction should
not be used because exiting from this mode can only be done
through a CSB deassertion.
LMP90100/LMP90099/LMP90098/LMP90097
30139512
FIGURE 22. DRDYB Behavior for an Incomplete ADC_DOUT Reading
DRDYB can also be accessed via registers using the
DT_AVAIL_B bit. This bit indicates when fresh conversion
data is available in the ADC_DOUT registers. If new conversion data is available, then DT_AVAIL_B = 0; otherwise,
DT_AVAIL_B = 1.
As opposed to the drdyb signal, a complete reading for
DT_AVAIL_B occurs when the MSB of ADC_DOUTH is read
out. This bit cannot be reset even if REG_AND_CNV_RST =
0xC3.
DrdybCase1:
Combining
SDO/DRDYB
with
SDO_DRDYB_DRIVER = 0x00
30139532
FIGURE 23. DrdybCase1 Connection Diagram
As shown in Figure 23, the drdyb signal and SDO can be
multiplexed on the same pin as their functions are mostly
complementary. In fact, this is the default mode for the
SDO/DRDYB pin.
Figure 24 shows a timing protocol for DrdybCase1. In this
case, start by asserting CSB first to monitor a drdyb assertion.
When the drdyb signal asserts, begin writing the Instruction
Bytes (INST1, UAB, INST2) to read from or write to registers.
www.ti.com
Note that INST1 and UAB are omitted from the figure below
because this transaction is only required if a new UAB needs
to be implemented.
While the CSB is asserted, DRDYB is driving the
SDO/DRDYB pin unless the device is reading data, in which
case, SDO will be driving the pin. If CSB is deasserted, then
the SDO/DRDYB pin is High-Z.
34
FIGURE 24. Timing Protocol for DrdybCase1
can only be used when the LMP900xx is the only device connected to the master's SPI bus because the SDO/DRDYB pin
will be DRDYB even when CSB is deasserted.
The timing protocol for this case can be seen in Figure 25.
When drdyb asserts, assert CSB to start the SPI transaction
and begin writing the Instruction Bytes (INST1, UAB, INST2)
to read from or write to registers.
DrdybCase2:
Combining
SDO/DRDYB
with
SDO_DRDYB_DRIVER = 0x03
SDO/DRDYB can be made independent of CSB by setting
SDO_DRDYB_DRIVER = 0x03 in the SPI Handshake Control
register. In this case, DRDYB will drive the pin unless the device is reading data, independent of the state of CSB. SDO
will drive the pin when CSB is asserted and the device is
reading data.
With this scheme, one can use SDO/DRDYB as a true interrupt source, independent of the state of CSB. But this scheme

DrdybCase3: Routing DRDYB to D6
30139591
FIGURE 26. DrdybCase3 Connection Diagram
The drdyb signal can be routed to pin D6 by setting
SPI_DRDYB_D6 high and SDO_DRDYB_DRIVER to 0x4.
This is the behavior for DrdybCase3 as shown in Figure 26.
The timing protocol for this case can be seen in Figure 27.
Since DRDYB is separated from SDO, it can be monitored
using the interrupt or polling method. If polled, the drdyb signal
needs to be polled faster than tDRDYB to detect a drdyb assertion. When drdyb asserts, assert CSB to start the SPI
transaction and begin writing the Instruction Bytes (INST1,
UAB, INST2) to read from or write to registers.
30139589
FIGURE 27. Timing Protocol for DrdybCase3
In order to use the data only transaction, the device must be
placed in the data first mode. The following table lists transaction formats for placing the device in and out of the data first
mode and reading the mode status.
16.5.7 Data Only Read Transaction
In a data only read transaction, one can directly access the
data byte(s) as soon as the CSB is asserted without having
to send any instruction byte. This is useful as it brings down
the latency as well as the overhead associated with the instruction byte (as well as the Upper Address Byte, if any).

16.5.8 Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC)
CRC can be used to ensure integrity of data read from LMP90xxx. To enable CRC, set EN_CRC high. Once CRC is
enabled, the CRC value is calculated and stored in
SPI_CRC_DAT so that the master device can periodically
read for data comparison. Conveniently, the SPI_CRC_DAT
register address is located next to the ADC_DOUT register
address so that the CRC value can be easily read as part of
the data set. The CRC is automatically reset when CSB or
DRDYB is deasserted.
The CRC polynomial is x8 + x5 + x4 + 1. The reset value of the
SPI_CRC_DAT register is zero, and the final value is onescomplemented before it is sent out. Note that CRC computation only includes the bits sent out on SDO and does not
include the bits of the SPI_CRC_DAT itself; thus it is okay to
read SPI_CRC_DAT repeatedly.
The drdyb signal normally deasserts (active high) every 1/
ODR second or when the LSB of ADC_DOUTL is read. However, this behavior can be changed so that drdyb deassertion
can occur after SPI_CRC_DAT is read, but not later than normal DRDYB deassertion which occurs at every 1/ODR seconds. This is done by setting bit DRDYB_AFT_CRC high.
The timing protocol for CRC can be found in Figure 28.
30139559
FIGURE 28. Timing Protocol for Reading SPI_CRC_DAT
If SPI_CRC_DAT read extends beyond the normal DRDYB
deassertion at every 1/ODR seconds, then CRC_RST has to
be set in the SPI Data Ready Bar Control Register. This is
done to avoid a CRC reset at the DRDYB deassertion.Timing
protocol for reading CRC with CRC_RST set is shown in Figure 29
30139538
FIGURE 29. Timing Protocol for Reading SPI_CRC_DAT beyond normal DRDYB deassertion at every 1/ODR seconds

www.ti.com
LMP90100/LMP90099/LMP90098/LMP90097
Note that while being in the data first mode, once the data
bytes in the data only read transaction are sent out, the device
is ready to start on any normal (non-data-only) transaction
including the Disable Data First Mode Instruction. The current
status of the data first mode (enabled/disabled status) can be
read back using the Read Mode Status Transaction. This
transaction consists of the Read Mode Status Instruction followed by a single data byte (driven by the device). The data
first mode status is available on bit [1] of this data byte.
The data only read transaction allows reading up to eight
consecutive registers, starting from any start address. Usually, the start address will be the address of the most significant byte of conversion data, but it could just as well be any
other address. The start address and number of bytes to be
read during the data only read transaction can be programmed using the DATA_ONLY_1 AND DATA_ONLY_2
registers respectively.
The upper register address is unaffected by a data only read
transaction. That is, it retains its setting even after encountering a data only transaction. The data only transaction uses
its own address (including the upper address) from the
DATA_ONLY_1 register. When in the data first mode, the
SCLK must stop high before entering the Data Only Read
Transaction; this transaction should be completed before the
next scheduled DRDYB deassertion.
LMP90100/LMP90099/LMP90098/LMP90097
Follow the steps below to enable CRC:
1. Set SPI_CRC_CN = 1 (register 0x13, bit 4) to enable
CRC.
2. Set DRDYB_AFT_CRC = 1 (register 0x13, bit 2) to
dessert the DRDYB after CRC.
3. Compute the CRC externally, which should include
CH_STS, ADC_DOUTH, ADC_DOUTM , and
ADC_DOUTL.
4. Collect the data and verify the reported CRC matches
with the computed CRC (step above).
16.7 RESET and RESTART
Writing 0xC3 to the REG_AND_CNV_RST field will reset the
conversion and most of the programmable registers to their
default values. The only registers that will not be reset are the
System Calibration Registers (CHx_SCAL_OFFSET,
CHx_SCAL_GAIN) and the DT_AVAIL_B bit.
If it is desirable to reset the System Calibration Coefficient
Registers, then set RESET_SYSCAL = 1 before writing 0xC3
to REG_AND_CNV_RST. If the device is operating in the
“System Calibration Offset/Gain Coefficient Determination”
mode (SCALCN register), then write REG_AND_CNV_RST
= 0xC3 twice to get out of this mode.
After a register reset, any on-going conversions will be aborted and restarted. If the device is in the power-down state, then
a register reset will bring it out of the power-down state.
To restart a conversion, write 1 to the RESTART bit. This bit
can be used to synchronize the conversion to an external
event.
16.6 POWER MANAGEMENT
The device can be placed in Active, Power-Down, or StandBy state.
In Power-Down, the ADC is not converting data, contents of
the registers are unaffected, and there is a drastic power reduction. In Stand-By, the ADC is not converting data, but the
power is only slightly reduced so that the device can quickly
transition into the active state if desired.
These states can be selected using the PWRCN register.
When written, PWRCN brings the device into the Active, Power-Down, or Stand-By state. When read, PWRCN indicates
the state of the device.
The read value would confirm the write value after a small
latency (approximately 15 µs with the internal CLK). It may be
appropriate to wait for this latency to confirm the state change.
Requests not adhering to this latency requirement may be
rejected.
It is not possible to make a direct transition from the powerdown state to the stand-by state. This state diagram is shown
below.

17.1 QUICK START
This section shows step-by-step instructions to configure the
LMP90xxx to perform a simple DC reading from CH0.
1. Apply VA = VIO = VREFP1 = 5V, and ground VREFN1
2. Apply VINP = ¾VREF and VINN = ¼VREF for CH0.
Thus, set CH0 = VIN = VINP - VINN = ½VREF
(CH0_INPUTCN register)
3. Set gain = 1 (CH0_CONFIG: GAIN_SEL = 0x0)
4. Exclude the buffer from the signal path (CH0_CONFIG:
BUF_EN = 1)
5. Set the background to BgcalMode2 (BGCALCN = 0x2)
6. Select VREF1 (CH0_INPUTCN: VREF_SEL = 0)
7. To use the internal CLK, set CLK_EXT_DET = 1 and
CLK_SEL = 0.
8. Follow the register read/write protocol (Figure 19) to
capture ADC_DOUT from CH0.
17.3 ADC_DOUT CALCULATION
The output code of the LMP90xxx can be calculated as:
Equation 1 — Output Code
ADC_DOUT is in 24−bit two's complement binary format. The
largest positive value is 0x7F_FFFF while the largest negative
value is 0x80_0000. In case of an over range the value is
automatically clamped to one of these two values.
Figure 31 shows the theoretical output code, ADC_DOUT, vs.
analog input voltage, VIN, using the equation above.
17.2 CONNECTING THE SUPPLIES
17.2.1 VA and VIO
Any ADC architecture is sensitive to spikes on the analog
voltage, VA, digital input/output voltage, VIO, and ground
pins. These spikes may originate from switching power supplies, digital logic, high power devices, and other sources. To
diminish these spikes, the LMP90xxx’s VA and VIO pins
should be clean and well bypassed. A 0.1 µF ceramic bypass
capacitor and a 1 µF tantalum capacitor should be used to
bypass the LMP90xxx supplies, with the 0.1 µF capacitor
placed as close to the LMP90xxx as possible.
Since the LMP90xxx has both external VA and VIO pins, the
user has two options on how to connect these pins. The first
option is to tie VA and VIO together and power them with the
same power supply. This is the most cost effective way of
powering the LMP90xxx but is also the least ideal because
noise from VIO can couple into VA and negatively affect performance. The second option involves powering VA and VIO
with separate power supplies. These supply voltages can
have the same amplitude or they can be different.
17.2.2 VREF
Operation with VREF below VA is also possible with slightly
diminished performance. As VREF is reduced, the range of
acceptable analog input voltages is also reduced. Reducing
the value of VREF also reduces the size of the LSB. When
the LSB size goes below the noise floor of the LMP90xxx, the
noise will span an increasing number of codes and performance will degrade. For optimal performance, VREF should

be the same as VA and sourced with a clean source that is
bypassed with a ceramic capacitor value of 0.1 µF and a tantalum capacitor of 10 µF.
LMP90xxx also allows ratiometric connection for noise immunity reasons. A ratiometric connection is when the ADC’s
VREFP and VREFN are used to excite the input device’s (i.e.
a bridge sensor) voltage references. This type of connection
severely attenuates any VREF ripple seen the ADC output,
and is thus strongly recommended.

ADC_DOUT registers consist of ADC_DOUTH at ADDR 0x1A, ADC_DOUTM at ADDR 0x1B, and ADC_DOUTL at ADDR 0x1C.
The first step (Figure 36) sets up the SPI_STREAMCN register. This step enters the Controlled Streaming mode by setting
STRM_TYPE high in ADDR 0x03. Since three registers (ADDR 0x1A - 0x1C) need to be read, the STRM_RANGE is 2.

FIGURE 36. Setting up SPI_STREAMCN
The next step shows how to perform the Controlled Streaming mode so that the master device will read ADC_DOUT from ADDR
0x1A, 0x1B, 0x1C, then wrap back to ADDR 0x1A, and repeat this process for four times. After this process, deassert CSB to end
the Controlled Streaming mode.

17.6 EXAMPLE APPLICATIONS
17.6.1 3–Wire RTD
30139552
FIGURE 38. Topology #1: 3-wire RTD Using 2 Current Sources
Figure 38 shows the first topology for a 3-wire resistive temperature detector (RTD) application. Topology #1 uses two
excitation current sources, IB1 and IB2, to create a differential
voltage across VIN0 and VIN1. As a result of using both IB1
and IB2, only one channel (VIN0-VIN1) needs to be measured. As shown in Equation 2, the equation for this channel
is IB1 x (RTD – RCOMP) assuming that RLINE1 = RLINE2.
The advantage of this circuit is its ratiometric configuration,
where VREF = (IB1 + IB2) x (RREF). Equation 3 shows that
a ratiometric configuration eliminates IB1 and IB2 from the
output equation, thus increasing the overall performance.
Equation 2 — VIN Equation for Topology #1
The PT-100 changes linearly from 100 Ohm at 0°C to
146.07 Ohm at 120°C. If desired, choose a suitable compensating resistor (RCOMP) so that VIN can be virtually 0V at any
desirable temperature. For example, if RCOMP = 100 Ohm,
then at 0°C, VIN = 0V and thus a higher gain can be used.

FIGURE 39. Topology #2: 3-wire RTD Using 1 Current Source
Figure 39 shows the second topology for a 3-wire RTD application. Topology #2 shows the same connection as topology
#1, but without IB2. Although this topology eliminates a current source, it requires two channel measurements as shown
in Equation 4.

17.6.2 Thermocouple and IC Analog Temperature
30139599
FIGURE 40. Thermocouple with CJC
The LMP90xxx is also ideal for thermocouple temperature
applications. Thermocouples have several advantages that
make them popular in many industrial and medical applications. Compare to RTDs, thermistors, and IC sensors, thermocouples are the most rugged, least expensive, and can
operate over the largest temperature range.
A thermocouple is a sensor whose junction generates a differential voltage, VIN, that is relative to the temperature difference (Thot – Tcold). Thot is also known as the measuring
junction or “hot” junction, which is placed at the measured
environment. Tcold is also known as the reference or “cold”
junction, which is placed at the measuring system environment.
Because a thermocouple can only measure a temperature
difference, it does not have the ability to measure absolute
temperature. To determine the absolute temperature of the
measured environment (Thot), a technique known as cold
junction compensation (CJC) must be used.
In a CJC technique, the “cold” junction temperature, Tcold, is
sensed by using an IC temperature sensor, such as the
LM94022. The temperature sensor should be placed within
close proximity of the reference junction and should have an
isothermal connection to the board to minimize any potential
temperature gradients.
Once Tcold is obtained, use a standard thermocouple lookup-table to find its equivalent voltage. Next, measure the
differential thermocouple voltage and add the equivalent cold
junction voltage. Lastly, convert the resulting voltage to temperature using a standard thermocouple look-up-table.
For example, assume Tcold = 20°C. The equivalent voltage
from a type K thermocouple look-up-table is 0.798 mV. Next,
add the measured differential thermocouple voltage to the
Tcold equivalent voltage. For example, if the thermocouple
voltage is 4.096 mV, the total would be 0.798 mV + 4.096 mV
= 4.894 mV. Referring to the type K thermocouple table gives
a temperature of 119.37°C for 4.894 mV.

Switch-off trigger - refers to the switching of the output drive from the slave to the master.
0 (default): SDO will be high-Z after the last (16th, 24th, 32nd, etc) rising edge of SCLK.
This option allows time for the slave to transfer control back to the master at the end of the
frame.
1: SDO’s high-Z is postponed to the subsequent falling edge following the last (16th, 24th,
32nd, etc) rising edge of SCLK. This option provides additional hold time for the last bit, DB0,
in non-streaming read transfers.
