The LTC®2435/LTC2435-1 are 2.7V to 5.5V micropower
20‑bit differential ∆∑ analog to digital converters with
integrated oscillator, 3ppm INL and 0.8ppm RMS noise.
They use delta-sigma technology and provide single
cycle settling time for multiplexed applications. Through
a single pin, the LTC2435 can be configured for better
than 110dB input differential mode rejection at 50Hz or
60Hz ± 2%, or it can be driven by an external oscillator
for a user defined rejection frequency. The LTC2435-1
can be configured for better than 87dB input differential
mode rejection over the range of 49Hz to 61.2Hz (50Hz
and 60Hz ±2% simultaneously). The internal oscillator
requires no external frequency setting components.
The converters accept any external differential reference
voltage from 0.1V to VCC for flexible ratiometric and remote sensing measurement configurations. The full-scale
differential input range is from –0.5VREF to 0.5VREF . The
reference common mode voltage, VREFCM, and the input
common mode voltage, VINCM, may be independently set
anywhere within the GND to VCC range of the LTC2435/
LTC2435-1. The DC common mode input rejection is
better than 120dB.
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 communicate through a flexible
3-wire digital interface which is compatible with SPI and
MICROWIRE™ protocols.

LTC2435/LTC2435-1
Pin Functions
GND (Pins 1, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 16): Ground. Multiple ground
pins internally connected for optimum ground current
flow and VCC decoupling. Connect each one of these pins
to a ground plane through a low impedance connection.
All seven pins must be connected to ground for proper
operation.
SDO (Pin 12): Three-State Digital Output. During the Data
Output period, this pin is used as serial data output. When
the chip select CS is HIGH (CS = VCC) the SDO pin is in a
high impedance state. During the Conversion and Sleep
periods, this pin is used as the conversion status output.
The conversion status can be observed by pulling CS LOW.
VCC (Pin 2): Positive Supply Voltage. Bypass to GND
(Pin 1) with a 10µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with
0.1µF ceramic capacitor as close to the part as possible.
SCK (Pin 13): Bidirectional Digital Clock Pin. In Internal
Serial Clock Operation mode, SCK is used as digital output
for the internal serial interface clock during the Data Output
period. In External Serial Clock Operation mode, SCK is
used as digital input for the external serial interface clock
during the Data Output period. A weak internal pull-up is
automatically activated in Internal Serial Clock Operation
mode. The Serial Clock Operation mode is determined by
the logic level applied to the SCK pin at power up or during
the most recent falling edge of CS.
REF + (Pin 3), REF– (Pin 4): Differential Reference Input.
The voltage on these pins can have any value between
GND and VCC as long as the reference positive input, REF+,
is maintained more positive than the reference negative
input, REF –, by at least 0.1V.
IN + (Pin 5), IN– (Pin 6): Differential Analog Input. The voltage on these pins can have any value between GND – 0.3V
and VCC + 0.3V. Within these limits the converter bipolar
input range (VIN = IN+ – IN–) extends from – 0.5•(VREF)
to 0.5•(VREF). Outside this input range the converter
produces unique overrange and underrange output codes.
CS (Pin 11): Active LOW Digital Input. A LOW on this pin
enables the SDO digital output and wakes up the ADC.
Following each conversion, the ADC automatically enters
the Sleep mode and remains in this low power state as
long as CS is HIGH. A LOW-to-HIGH transition on CS
during the Data Output transfer aborts the data transfer
and starts a new conversion.
FO (Pin 14): Frequency Control Pin. Digital input that
controls the ADC’s notch frequencies and conversion time.
When the FO pin is connected to VCC (LTC2435 only), the
converter uses its internal oscillator and the digital filter
first null is located at 50Hz. When the FO pin is connected
to GND (FO = OV), the converter uses its internal oscillator
and the digital filter first null is located at 60Hz (LTC2435)
or simultaneous 50Hz/60Hz (LTC2435-1). When FO is
driven by an external clock signal with a frequency fEOSC,
the converter uses this signal as its system clock and the
digital filter first null is located at a frequency fEOSC /2560.

LTC2435/LTC2435-1
Applications Information
Converter Operation
Converter Operation Cycle
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 are low power, delta-sigma
analog-to-digital converters with an easy to use 3-wire
serial interface (see Figure 1). Their operation is made
up of three states. The converter operating cycle begins
with the conversion, followed by the sleep state and ends
with the data output (see Figure 2). The 3-wire interface
consists of serial data output (SDO), serial clock (SCK)
and chip select (CS).
CONVERT
SLEEP
FALSE
There is no latency in the conversion result. The data output
corresponds to the conversion just performed. This result
is shifted out on the serial data out pin (SDO) under the
control of the serial clock (SCK). Data is updated on the
falling edge of SCK allowing the user to reliably latch data
on the rising edge of SCK (see Figure 3). The data output
state is concluded once 24 bits are read out of the ADC
or when CS is brought HIGH. The device automatically
initiates a new conversion and the cycle repeats.
Through timing control of the CS and SCK pins, the
LTC2435/LTC2435-1 offer several flexible modes of
operation (internal or external SCK and free-running
conversion modes). These various modes do not require
programming configuration registers; moreover, they do
not disturb the cyclic operation described above. These
modes of operation are described in detail in the Serial
Interface Timing Modes section.

DATA OUTPUT
2435 F02
Figure 2. LTC2435 State Transition Diagram
Initially, the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 perform a conversion.
Once the conversion is complete, the device enters the
sleep state. While in this sleep state, power consumption
is reduced by an order of magnitude if CS is HIGH. The
part remains in the sleep state as long as CS is HIGH.
The conversion result is held indefinitely in a static shift
register while the converter is in the sleep state.
Once CS is pulled LOW, the device exits the low power
sleep mode and enters the data output state. If CS is pulled
HIGH before the first rising edge of SCK, the device returns
to the sleep mode and the conversion result is still held in
the internal static shift register. If CS remains LOW after
the first rising edge of SCK, the device begins outputting
the conversion result. Taking CS HIGH at this point will
terminate the data output state and start a new conversion.
A major advantage the delta-sigma converter offers over
conventional type converters is an on-chip digital filter
(commonly implemented as a Sinc or Comb filter). For
high resolution, low frequency applications, this filter is
typically designed to reject line frequencies of 50Hz or 60Hz
plus their harmonics. The filter rejection performance is
directly related to the accuracy of the converter system
clock. The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 incorporate a highly
accurate on-chip oscillator. This eliminates the need for
external frequency setting components such as crystals
or oscillators. Clocked by the on-chip oscillator, the
LTC2435 achieves a minimum of 110dB rejection at the
line frequency (50Hz or 60Hz ± 2%), while the LTC2435‑1
achieves a minimum of 87db rejection at 50Hz ±2% and
60Hz ±2% simultaneously.
Ease of Use
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 data output has no latency,
filter settling delay or redundant data associated with the
conversion cycle. There is a one-to-one correspondence
between the conversion and the output data. Therefore,
multiplexing multiple analog voltages is easy.

LTC2435/LTC2435-1
Applications Information
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 perform a full-scale calibration
every conversion cycle. This calibration is transparent to
the user and has no effect on the cyclic operation described
above. The advantage of continuous calibration is extreme
stability of full-scale readings with respect to time, supply
voltage change and temperature drift.
Unlike the LTC2430, the LTC2435 and LTC2435-1 do not
perform an offset calibration every conversion cycle. This
enables the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 to double their output rate
while maintaining line frequency rejection. The initial offset
of the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 is within 5mV independent of
VREF . Based on the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 new modulator
architecture, the temperature drift of the offset is less than
100nV/°C. More information on the LTC2435/LTC2435‑1
offset is described in the Offset Accuracy and Drift section
of this data sheet.
Power-Up Sequence
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 automatically enter an internal
reset state when the power supply voltage VCC drops
below approximately 2.2V. This feature guarantees the
integrity of the conversion result and of the serial interface
mode selection. (See the 2-wire I/O sections in the Serial
Interface Timing Modes section.)
When the VCC voltage rises above this critical threshold,
the converter creates an internal power-on-reset (POR)
signal with a duration of approximately 1ms. The POR signal
clears all internal registers. Following the POR signal, the
LTC2435/LTC2435-1 start a normal conversion cycle and
follow the succession of states described above. The first
conversion result following POR is accurate within the
specifications of the device if the power supply voltage is
restored within the operating range (2.7V to 5.5V) before
the end of the POR time interval.
Reference Voltage Range
These converters accept a truly differential external
reference voltage. The absolute/common mode voltage
specification for the REF + and REF – pins covers the entire
range from GND to VCC. For correct converter operation, the
REF + pin must always be more positive than the REF – pin.
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 can accept a differential reference
voltage from 0.1V to VCC. The converter output noise is
determined by the thermal noise of the front-end circuits,
and as such, its value is nearly constant with reference
voltage. A decrease in reference voltage will not significantly improve the converter’s effective resolution. On the
other hand, a reduced reference voltage will improve the
converter’s overall INL performance. A reduced reference
voltage will also improve the converter performance when
operated with an external conversion clock (external FO
signal) at substantially higher output data rates (see the
Output Data Rate section).
Input Voltage Range
The analog input is truly differential with an absolute/common mode range for the IN+ and IN– input pins extending
from GND – 0.3V to VCC + 0.3V. Outside these limits, the
ESD protection devices begin to turn on and the errors
due to input leakage current increase rapidly. Within these
limits, the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 convert the bipolar differential input signal, VIN = IN+ – IN–, from – FS = –0.5
• VREF to + FS = 0.5 • VREF where VREF = REF+ – REF–.
Outside this range, the converters indicate the overrange
or the underrange condition using distinct output codes.
Input signals applied to IN+ and IN– pins may extend by
300mV below ground and above VCC. In order to limit any
fault current, resistors of up to 5k may be added in series
with the IN+ and IN– pins without affecting the performance of the device. In the physical layout, it is important
to maintain the parasitic capacitance of the connection
between these series resistors and the corresponding
pins as low as possible; therefore, the resistors should
be located as close as practical to the pins. The effect of
the series resistance on the converter accuracy can be
evaluated from the curves presented in the Input Current/
Reference Current sections. In addition, series resistors
will introduce a temperature dependent offset error due
to the input leakage current. A 1nA input leakage current
will develop a 1ppm offset error on a 5k resistor if VREF =
5V. This error has a very strong temperature dependency.

Output Data Format
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 serial output data stream is 24
bits long. The first 3 bits represent status information
indicating the sign and conversion state. The next 21
bits are the conversion result, MSB first. The third and
fourth bit together are also used to indicate an underrange
condition (the differential input voltage is below –FS) or
an overrange condition (the differential input voltage is
above +FS).
Bit 23 (first output bit) is the end of conversion (EOC)
indicator. This bit is available at the SDO pin during the
conversion and sleep states whenever the CS pin is LOW.
This bit is HIGH during the conversion and goes LOW
when the conversion is complete.
Bit 22 (second output bit) is a dummy bit (DMY) and is
always LOW.
Bit 21 (third output bit) is the conversion result sign
indicator (SIG). If VIN is >0, this bit is HIGH. If VIN is 0.01µF) may

Such capacitors will average the reference sampling charge

Applications Information
In addition to this gain error, the converter INL performance
is degraded by the reference source impedance. When FO
= LOW (internal oscillator and 60Hz notch), every 100Ω
of source resistance driving REF+ or REF– translates into
about 0.11ppm additional INL error. For the LTC2435,
when FO = HIGH (internal oscillator and 50Hz notch), every
100Ω of source resistance driving REF+ or REF– translates into about 0.092ppm additional INL error; and for
the LTC2435‑1 operating with simultaneous 50Hz/60Hz
rejection, every 100Ω of source resistance leads to an
additional 0.10ppm of additional INL error. When FO is
driven by an external oscillator with a frequency fEOSC,
every 100Ω of source resistance driving REF+ or REF–
translates into about 0.73 • 10–6 • fEOSCppm additional
INL error. Figure 25 shows the typical INL error due to the
source resistance driving the REF+ or REF– pins when large
CREF values are used. The effect of the source resistance
on the two reference pins is additive with respect to this
INL error. In general, matching of source impedance for
the REF+ and REF– pins does not help the gain or the INL
error. The user is thus advised to minimize the combined
source impedance driving the REF+ and REF– pins rather
than to try to match it.
The magnitude of the dynamic reference current depends
upon the size of the very stable internal sampling capacitors
and upon the accuracy of the converter sampling clock. The
accuracy of the internal clock over the entire temperature
and power supply range is typical better than 0.5%. Such
a specification can also be easily achieved by an external
clock. When relatively stable resistors (50ppm/°C) are
used for the external source impedance seen by REF+
and REF–, the expected drift of the dynamic current gain
error will be insignificant (about 1% of its value over the
entire temperature and voltage range). Even for the most
stringent applications a one-time calibration operation
may be sufficient.
In addition to the reference sampling charge, the reference pins ESD protection diodes have a temperature dependent leakage current. This leakage current, nominally
1nA (±10nA max), results in a small gain error. A 100Ω
source resistance will create a 0.05µV typical and 0.5µV
maximum full-scale error.

Output Data Rate
When using its internal oscillator, the LTC2435 can produce
up to 15 readings per second with a notch frequency of
60Hz (FO = LOW) and 12.5 readings per second with a
notch frequency of 50Hz (FO = HIGH) and the LTC2435-1
can produce up to 13.6 readings per second with FO = LOW.
The actual output data rate will depend upon the length of
the sleep and data output phases which are controlled by
the user and which can be made insignificantly short. When
operated with an external conversion clock (FO connected
to an external oscillator), the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 output
data rate can be increased as desired. The duration of the
conversion phase is 10278/fEOSC. If fEOSC = 153600Hz, the
converter behaves as if the internal oscillator is used and
the notch is set at 60Hz. There is no significant difference
in the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 performance between these
two operation modes.
An increase in fEOSC over the nominal 153600Hz will
translate into a proportional increase in the maximum
output data rate. This substantial advantage is nevertheless
accompanied by three potential effects, which must be
carefully considered.
First, a change in fEOSC will result in a proportional change
in the internal notch position and in a reduction of the
converter differential mode rejection at the power line frequency. In many applications, the subsequent performance
degradation can be substantially reduced by relying upon
the LTC2435/LTC2435-1’s exceptional common mode
rejection and by carefully eliminating common mode to
differential mode conversion sources in the input circuit.

Third, the internal analog circuits are optimized for normal
operation; therefore an increase in the frequency of the
external oscillator will start to decrease the effectiveness of
the internal analog circuits. This will result in a progressive
degradation in the converter accuracy and linearity. Typical
measured performance curves for output data rates up to
200 readings per second are shown in Figures 26 to 33.
The degradation becomes more obvious above output data
rate of 150Hz, which corresponds to an external oscillator
of 1.536MHz. In order to obtain the highest possible level
of accuracy from this converter at output data rates above
150 readings per second, the user is advised to maximize
the power supply voltage used and to limit the maximum
ambient operating temperature. In certain circumstances,
a reduction of the differential reference voltage may be
beneficial.

Second, the increase in clock frequency will increase
proportionally the amount of sampling charge transferred
through the input and the reference pins. If large external
input and/or reference capacitors (CIN, CREF) are used, the
previous section provides formulae for evaluating the effect
of the source resistance upon the converter performance for
any value of fEOSC. If small external input and/or reference
capacitors (CIN, CREF) are used, the effect of the external
source resistance upon the LTC2435/LTC2435‑1 typical
performance can be inferred from Figures 16, 17, 21 and
22 in which the horizontal axis is scaled by 153600/fEOSC.

Normal Mode Rejection and Anti-Aliasing
One of the advantages delta-sigma ADCs offer over
conventional ADCs is on-chip digital filtering. Combined
with a large oversampling ratio, the LTC2435/LTC2435-1
significantly simplifies anti-aliasing filter requirements.
The SINC4 digital filter provides greater than 120dB normal
mode rejection at all frequencies except DC and integer
multiples of the modulator sampling frequency (fS). Independent of the operating mode, fS = 256 • fN = 1024 •
fOUTMAX where fN is the notch frequency and fOUTMAX is
the maximum output data rate. In the internal oscillator
mode, for the LTC2435, FS = 12800Hz with a 50Hz notch
0
The normal mode rejection performance is shown in Figure 34. The regions of low rejection occurring at integer
multiples of fS have a very narrow bandwidth. Magnified
details of the normal mode rejection curves are shown
in Figure 35 (rejection near DC) and Figure 36 (rejection
at fS = 256fN) where fN represents the notch frequency.
For the LTC2435, the bandwidth is 13.6Hz (FO = GND)
and 11.4Hz (FO = VCC). The bandwidth is 12.4Hz for the
LTC2435-1 (FO = GND).

LTC2435/LTC2435-1
Applications Information
Through FO connection, the LTC2435 provides better than
110dB input differential mode rejection at 50Hz or 60Hz
±2%. While for the LTC2435-1, it has a notch frequency
of about 55Hz with better than 70db rejection over 48Hz
to 62.4Hz, which covers both 50Hz ±2% and 60Hz ±2%.
In order to achieve better rejection over the range of
48Hz to 62.4Hz, a running average can be performed. By
averaging two consecutive LTC2435-1 readings, a SINC1
notch is combined with the SINC4 digital filter, yielding
the frequency response shown in Figure 37. The averaging operation still keeps the output rate with the following
algorithm:
Result 1 = average (sample 0, sample 1)
Result 2 = average (sample 1, sample 2)
Result n = average (sample n-1, sample n)
The user can expect to achieve in practice this level of
performance using the internal oscillator as it is demonstrated by Figures 38 to 40. Typical measured values of
the normal mode rejection of the LTC2435-1 operating
with an internal oscillator and a 54.6Hz notch setting
are shown in Figure 38 and 39 superimposed over the
theoretical calculated curve. The same normal mode
rejection performance is obtained for the LTC2435 with
the frequency scaled to have the notch frequency at 60Hz
(FO = GND) or 50Hz (FO = VCC).
As a result of these remarkable normal mode specifications, minimal (if any) anti-alias filtering is required in front
of the LTC2435/LTC2435-1. If passive RC components
are placed in front of the LTC2435/LTC2435-1, the input
dynamic current should be considered (see Input Current
section). In cases where large effective RC time constants
are used, an external buffer amplifier may be required to
minimize the effects of dynamic input current.
Traditional high order delta-sigma modulators, while
providing very good linearity and resolution, suffer from
potential instabilities at large input signal levels. The
proprietary architecture used for the LTC2435/LTC2435-1
third order modulator resolves this problem and guarantees a predictable stable behavior at input signal levels of

that will contribute some error due to leakage if used
directly with the output from the bridge, or if resistors

some thought should be given to fault conditions that

Applications Information
The listing in Figure 43 is a data collection program for the
LTC2435/LTC2435-1 using the PIC16F73 microcontroller.
The microcontroller is configured to transfer data through
the SPI serial interface. Figure 42 shows the connection.
The LT1180A is a dual RS232 driver/receiver pair with
integral charge pump that generates RS232 voltage levels
from a single 5V supply.
The program begins by declaring variables and allocating
memory locations to store the 24-bit conversion result.
The main sequence starts with pulling CS LOW. It then
waits for SDO to go LOW to start reading data. Three
bytes are read to the MCU and the LTC2435/LTC2435-1
will automatically start a new conversion. CS is also raised
to HIGH to ensure that a new conversion is started. The
collected data are sent out through the serial port at 57600
baud. This can be captured with a terminal program and
analyzed with a spreadsheet using the HEX2DEC function.
Correlated Double Sampling with the
LTC2435/LTC2435-1
The Typical Application on the back page of this data
sheet shows the LTC2435/LTC2435-1 in a correlated
double sampling circuit that achieves a noise floor of
under 100nV. In this scheme, the polarity of the bridge is
alternated every other sample and the result is the average
of a pair of samples of opposite sign. This technique has
the benefit of canceling any fixed DC error components
in the bridge, amplifiers and the converter, as these will
alternate in polarity relative to the signal. Offset voltages
and currents, thermocouple voltages at junctions of dissimilar metals and the lower frequency components of
1/f noise are virtually eliminated.
The LTC2435/LTC2435-1 have the virtue of being able to
digitize an input voltage that is outside the range defined by
the reference, thereby providing a simple means to implement a ratiometric example of correlated double sampling.
This circuit uses a bipolar amplifier (LT1219—U1 and
U2) that has neither the lowest noise nor the highest gain.
It does, however, have an output stage that can effectively suppress the conversion spikes from the LTC2435/
LTC2435-1. The LT1219 is a C-Load™ stable amplifier
that, by design, needs at least 0.1µF output capacitance to
remain stable. The 0.1µF ceramic capacitors at the outputs
(C1 and C2) should be placed and routed to minimize lead
inductance or their effectiveness in preventing envelope
detection in the input stage will be reduced. Alternatively,
several smaller capacitors could be placed so that lead
inductance is further reduced. This is a consideration
because the frequency content of the conversion spikes
extends to 50MHz or more. The output impedance of most
op amps increases dramatically with frequency but the
effective output impedance of the LT1219 remains low,
determined by the ESR and inductance of the capacitors
above 10MHz. The conversion spikes that remain at the
output of other bipolar amplifiers pass through the feedback network and often overdrive the input of the amplifier,
producing envelope detection. RFI may also be present on
the signal lines from the bridge; C3 and C4 provide RFI
suppression at the signal input, as well as suppressing
transient voltages during bridge commutation.
The wideband noise density of the LT1219 is 33nV/√Hz,
seemingly much noisier than the lowest noise amplifiers.
However, in the region just below the 1/f corner that is
not well suppressed by the correlated double sampling,
the average noise density is similar to the noise density
of many low noise amplifiers. If the amplifier is rolled
off below about 1500Hz, the total noise bandwidth is
determined by the converter’s SINC4 filter at about 12Hz.
The use of correlated double sampling involves averaging
even numbers of samples; hence, in this situation, two
samples would be averaged to give an input-referred noise
level of about 100nVRMS.
Level shift transistors Q4 and Q5 are included to allow
excitation voltages up to the maximum recommended
for the bridge. In the case shown, if a 10V supply is
used, the excitation voltage to the bridge is 8.5V and
the outputs of the bridge are above the supply rail of the
ADC. U1 and U2 are also used to produce a level shift to
bring the outputs within the input range of the converter.
This instrumentation amplifier topology does not require
well-matched resistors in order to produce good CMRR.
However, the use of R2 requires that R3 and R6 match
well, as the common mode gain is approximately –12dB.
If the bridge is composed of four equal 350Ω resistors,
the differential component associated with mismatch
of R3 and R6 is nearly constant with either polarity of
excitation and, as with offset, its contribution is canceled.
