MCP3426A0-E/SN Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Microchip Technology MCP3426A0-E/SN is a high-accuracy, 16-bit Sigma-Delta Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) designed for precision measurements. This device offers 2 differential input channels and utilizes an I2C interface for communication, supporting standard, fast, and high-speed modes.

 

Key electrical specifications include a wide operating voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V and an extended operating temperature range from -40°C to +125°C. It features an on-board 2.048V voltage reference with ±0.05% accuracy and a low drift of 15 ppm/°C. The integrated Programmable Gain Amplifier (PGA) offers selectable gains of 1, 2, 4, or 8, allowing for the conversion of weak input signals with high resolution. The ADC provides selectable data rates of 15 SPS for 16-bit resolution, 60 SPS for 14-bit, and 240 SPS for 12-bit resolution.

 

This ADC supports both one-shot and continuous conversion modes, with low current consumption in both. In one-shot mode with 1 SPS and 16-bit resolution, consumption is as low as 9 µA typical. The device also includes self-calibration for internal offset and gain per conversion, ensuring accurate results over temperature and power supply variations.

 

The MCP3426A0-E/SN is available in an 8-SOIC surface mount package. Its typical applications include portable instrumentation, temperature sensing, bridge sensing for pressure and strain, weigh scales, and factory automation equipment.
