The LTC®2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 are 8-/16channel (4-/8-differential) high speed 24-bit No Latency
∆Σ™ ADCs. They use a proprietary delta-sigma architecture enabling variable speed/resolution. Through a simple
4-wire serial interface, ten speed/resolution combinations
6.9Hz/280nVRMS to 3.5kHz/25µVRMS (4kHz with external
oscillator) can be selected with no latency between conversion results or shift in DC accuracy (offset, full-scale,
linearity, drift). Additionally, a 2X speed mode can be
selected enabling output rates up to 7kHz (8kHz if an
external oscillator is used) with one cycle latency.
Any combination of single-ended or differential inputs
can be selected with a common mode input range from
ground to VCC, independent of VREF. While operating in
the 1X speed mode the first conversion following a new
speed, resolution, or channel selection is valid. Since
there is no settling time between conversions, all 8 differential channels can be scanned at a rate of 500Hz.
At the conclusion of each conversion, the converter is
internally reset eliminating any memory effects between
successive conversions and assuring stability of the high
order delta-sigma modulator.

Pin Functions
GND (Pins 1, 4, 5, 6, 31, 32, 33): Ground. Multiple ground
pins internally connected for optimum ground current flow
and VCC decoupling. Connect each one of these pins to
a common ground plane through a low impedance connection. All seven pins must be connected to ground for
proper operation.
BUSY (Pin 2): Conversion in Progress Indicator. This pin
is HIGH while the conversion is in progress and goes LOW
indicating the conversion is complete and data is ready.
It remains LOW during the sleep and data output states.
At the conclusion of the data output state, it goes HIGH
indicating a new conversion has begun.
EXT (Pin 3): Internal/External SCK Selection Pin. This
pin is used to select internal or external SCK for outputting/inputting data. If EXT is tied low, the device is in the
external SCK mode and data is shifted out of the device
under the control of a user applied serial clock. If EXT is
tied high, the internal serial clock mode is selected. The
device generates its own SCK signal and outputs this on
the SCK pin. A framing signal BUSY (Pin 2) goes low
indicating data is being output.
COM (Pin 7): The common negative input (IN –) for all
single ended multiplexer configurations. The voltage on
CH0 to CH15 and COM pins can have any value between
GND – 0.3V to VCC + 0.3V. Within these limits, the two
selected inputs (IN+ and IN–) provide a bipolar input range
(VIN = IN+ – IN–) from –0.5 • VREF to 0.5 • VREF. Outside
this input range, the converter produces unique overrange
and underrange output codes.
CH0 to CH15 (Pins 8 to 23): LTC2448/LTC2449 Analog
Inputs. May be programmed for single-ended or differential mode.
CH0 to CH7 (Pins 9, 10, 13, 14, 17, 18, 21, 22): LTC2444/
LTC2445 Analog Inputs. May be programmed for singleended or differential mode.
NC (Pins 8, 11, 12, 15, 16, 19, 20, 23): LTC2444/LTC2445
No Connect/Channel Isolation Shield. May be left floating
or tied to any voltage 0 to VCC in order to provide isolation
for pairs of differential input channels.
NC (Pins 24, 25, 26, 27): LTC2444/LTC2448 No Connect.
These pins can either be tied to ground or left floating.
MUXOUTP (Pin 24): LTC2445/LTC2449 Positive Multiplexer Output. Used to drive the input to an external
buffer/amplifier.
ADCINP (Pin 25): LTC2445/LTC2449 Positive ADC Input.
Tie to output of buffer/amplifier driven by MUXOUTP.
ADCINN (Pin 26): LTC2445/LTC2449 Negative ADC Input.
Tie to output of buffer/amplifier driven by MUXOUTN.
MUXOUTN (Pin 27): LTC2445/LTC2449 Negative Multiplexer Output. Used to drive the input to an external
buffer/amplifier.
VCC (Pin 28): Positive Supply Voltage. Bypass to GND with
a 10µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic
capacitor as close to the part as possible.
REF+ (Pin 29), REF– (Pin 30): 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 negative reference
input, REF+, by at least 0.1V.
SDI (Pin 34): Serial Data Input. This pin is used to select
the speed, 1X or 2X mode, resolution, and input channel,
for the next conversion cycle. At initial power up, the
default mode of operation is CH0 to CH1, OSR of 256,
and 1X mode. The serial data input contains an enable
bit which determines if a new channel/speed is selected.
If this bit is low the following conversion remains at the
same speed and selected channel. The serial data input
is applied to the device under control of the serial clock
(SCK) during the data output cycle. The first conversion
following a new channel/speed is valid.
FO (Pin 35): Frequency Control Pin. Digital input that controls the internal conversion clock. When FO is connected
to VCC or GND, the converter uses its internal oscillator.

Pin Functions
CS (Pin 36): Active Low Chip Select. 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 aborts the data transfer and starts a
new conversion.
SDO (Pin 37): 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.
This signal is HIGH while the conversion is in progress
and goes LOW once the conversion is complete.
SCK (Pin 38): Bidirectional Digital Clock Pin. In internal
serial clock operation mode, SCK is used as a digital
output for the internal serial interface clock during the
data output period. In the external serial clock operation
mode, SCK is used as the digital input for the external
serial interface clock during the data output period. The
serial clock operation mode is determined by the logic
level applied to the EXT pin.
Exposed Pad (Pin 39): Ground. The exposed pad on the
bottom of the package must be soldered to the PCB ground.
For prototyping purposes, this pin may remain floating.

Converter Operation
Converter Operation Cycle
The LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 are multichannel, high speed, delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters with an easy to use 3- or 4-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 low power sleep state and ends with the data
output/input (see Figure 2). The 4-wire interface consists
of serial data input (SDI), serial data output (SDO), serial
clock (SCK) and chip select (CS). The interface, timing,
operation cycle and data out format is compatible with
Linear’s entire family of ∆Σ converters.
POWER UP
IN+=CH0, IN–=CH1
OSR=256,1X MODE
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 32 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, SCK and EXT pins, the
LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 offer several flexible modes of operation (internal or external SCK). 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.
Ease of Use
The LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 data output
has no latency, filter settling delay or redundant data
associated with the conversion cycle while operating
in the 1X mode. There is a one-to-one correspondence
between the conversion and the output data. Therefore,
multiplexing multiple analog voltages is easy. Speed/
resolution adjustments may be made seamlessly between
two conversions without settling errors.

State Transition Diagram
Initially, the LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 perform a conversion. Once the conversion is complete, the
device enters the sleep state. While in this sleep state, power
consumption is reduced below 10µA. 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 begins outputting the
conversion result. There is no latency in the conversion
result while operating in the 1x mode. The data output
The LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 perform offset
and full-scale calibrations 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 offset and
full-scale readings with respect to time, supply voltage
change and temperature drift.
Power-Up Sequence
The LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 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.
When the VCC voltage rises above this critical threshold, the
converter creates an internal power-on-reset (POR) signal
with a duration of approximately 0.5ms. The POR signal

Input Voltage Range
clears all internal registers. The conversion immediately
following a POR is performed on the input channel IN+
= CH0, IN– = CH1 at an OSR = 256 in the 1X mode. Following the POR signal, the LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/
LTC2449 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 (4.5V to 5.5V) before the end of the
POR time interval.
Refer to Figure 4. The analog input is truly differential with an
absolute/common mode range for the CH0 to CH15 and COM
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 LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/
LTC2449 convert the bipolar differential input signal, VIN =
IN+ – IN– (where IN+ and IN– are the selected input channels), from – FS = –0.5 • VREF to +FS = 0.5 • VREF where
VREF = REF+ – REF–. Outside this range, the converter
indicates the overrange or the underrange condition using
distinct output codes.
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.
MUXOUT/ADCIN
There are two differences between the LTC2444/LTC2448
and the LTC2445/LTC2449. The first is the RMS noise
performance. For a given OSR, the LTC2445/LTC2449
noise level is approximately √2 times lower (0.5 effective
bits)than that of the LTC2444/LTC2448.
The LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 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 in microvolts
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.
The second difference is the LTC2445/LTC2449 includes
MUXOUT/ADCIN pins. These pins enable an external buffer or gain block to be inserted between the output of the
multiplexer and the input to the ADC. Since the buffer is
driven by the output of the multiplexer, only one circuit is

required for all 16 input channels. Additionally, the transparent calibration feature of the LTC244X family automatically
removes the offset errors of the external buffer.
In order to achieve optimum performance, the MUXOUT
and ADCIN pins should not be shorted together. In applications where the MUXOUT and ADCIN need to be shorted
together, the LTC2444/LTC2448 should be used because
the MUXOUT and ADCIN are internally connected for
optimum performance.
Output Data Format
The LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 serial output
data stream is 32 bits long. The first 3 bits represent status information indicating the sign and conversion state.
The next 24 bits are the conversion result, MSB first. The
remaining 5 bits are sub LSBs beyond the 24-bit level that
may be included in averaging or discarded without loss of
resolution. In the case of ultrahigh resolution modes, more
than 24 effective bits of performance are possible (see
Table 5). Under these conditions, sub LSBs are included
in the conversion result and represent useful information

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 31 (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 30 (second output bit) is a dummy bit (DMY) and is
always LOW.

Input Bandwidth and Frequency Rejection
In addition to adjusting the speed/resolution of the
LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449, the speed/resolution/power dissipation may also be adjusted using the
automatic sleep mode. During the conversion cycle, the
LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 draw 8mA supply
current independent of the programmed speed. Once the
conversion cycle is completed, the device automatically
enters a low power sleep state drawing 8µA. The device
remains in this state as long as CS is HIGH and data is not
shifted out. By adjusting the duration of the sleep state
(hold CS HIGH longer) and the duration of the conversion
cycle (programming OSR) the DC power dissipation can
be reduced, see Figure 15.
The combined effect of the internal SINC4 digital filter and
the digital and analog autocalibration circuits determines
the LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 input bandwidth

and rejection characteristics. The digital filter’s response
can be adjusted by setting the oversample ratio (OSR)
through the SPI interface or by supplying an external
conversion clock to the FO pin.
Maximum Conversion Rate
Table 8 lists the properties of the LTC2444/LTC2445/
LTC2448/LTC2449 with various combinations of oversample ratio and clock frequency. Understanding these
properties is the key to fine tuning the characteristics of the
LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 to the application.
First Notch Frequency
The maximum conversion rate is the fastest possible rate
at which conversions can be performed.
This is the first notch in the SINC4 portion of the digital filter
and depends on the FO clock frequency and the oversample
ratio. Rejection at this frequency and its multiples (up to
the modulator sample rate of 1.8MHz) exceeds 120dB.
This is 8 times the maximum conversion rate.

Applications Information
Effective Noise Bandwidth
The LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 has extremely
good input noise rejection from the first notch frequency
all the way out to the modulator sample rate (typically
1.8MHz). Effective noise bandwidth is a measure of how
the ADC will reject wideband input noise up to the modulator sample rate. The example on the following page
shows how the noise rejection of the LTC2444/LTC2445/
LTC2448/LTC2449 reduces the effective noise of an amplifier driving its input.
Example: If an amplifier (e.g. LT1219) driving the input of
an LTC2444/LTC2445/LTC2448/LTC2449 has wideband
noise of 33nV/√Hz, band-limited to 1.8MHz, the total noise
entering the ADC input is:
33nV/√Hz • √1.8MHz = 44.3µV.
When the ADC digitizes the input, its digital filter filters
out the wideband noise from the input signal. The noise
reduction depends on the oversample ratio which defines
the effective bandwidth of the digital filter.
At an oversample of 256, the noise bandwidth of the ADC
is 787Hz which reduces the total amplifier noise to:
33nV/√Hz • √787Hz = 0.93µV.
The total noise is the RMS sum of this noise with the 2µV
noise of the ADC at OSR=256.
√(0.93µV)2 + (2µV)2 = 2.2µV.
Increasing the oversample ratio to 32768 reduces the
noise bandwidth of the ADC to 6.2Hz which reduces the
total amplifier noise to:
33nV/√Hz • √6.2Hz = 82nV.
The total noise is the RMS sum of this noise with the
200nV noise of the ADC at OSR = 32768.
In this way, the digital filter with its variable oversampling
ratio can greatly reduce the effects of external noise sources.
Automatic Offset Calibration of External
Buffers/Amplifiers
The LTC2445/LTC2449 enable an external amplifier to
be inserted between the multiplexer output and the ADC
input. This enables one external buffer/amplifier circuit to
be shared between all 17 analog inputs (16 single-ended
or 8 differential). The LTC2445/LTC2449 perform an
internal offset calibration every conversion cycle in order
to remove the offset and drift of the ADC. This calibration
is performed through a combination of front end switching and digital processing. Since the external amplifier is
placed between the multiplexer and the ADC, it is inside
the correction loop. This results in automatic offset correction and offset drift removal of the external amplifier.
The LT1368 is an excellent amplifier for this function. It
has rail-to-rail inputs and outputs, and it operates on a
single 5V supply. Its open-loop gain is 1M and its input
bias current is 10nA. It also requires at least a 0.1µF load
capacitor for compensation. It is this feature that sets it
apart from other amplifiers—the load capacitor attenuates
sampling glitches from the LTC2445/LTC2449 ADCIN
terminals, allowing it to achieve full performance of the
ADC with high impedance at the multiplexer inputs.
Another benefit of the LT1368 is that it can be powered
from supplies equal to or greater than that of the ADC.
This can allow the inputs to span the entire absolute
maximum of GND – 0.3V to VCC + 0.3V. Using a positive
supply of 7.5V to 10V and a negative supply of –2.5 to –5V
gives the amplifier plenty of headroom over the LTC2445/
LTC2449 input range.
√(82nV)2 + (200nV)2 = 216nV.
