1.0. Introduction
The LMP90100 Design Kit (consisting of the LMP90100 Evaluation Board, the SPIO-4 Digital
Controller Board, the Sensor AFE software, and this user’s guide) is designed to ease evaluation and
design-in of National Semiconductor’s LMP90100 24-bit Fully Programmable Low Power Σ∆ ADC with
True Continuous Background Calibration.
Data capturing and static evaluations are simplified by connecting the SPIO-4 Digital Controller Board
(SPIO-4 board) to a PC via USB and running the Sensor AFE software. The data capture board will
generate the SPI signals to communicate to and capture data from the LMP90100. The user will also have
the option to evaluate the LMP90100 without using the SPIO-4 board or the Sensor AFE software.
The LMP90100 will digitize the analog input, and the software will display these results in time domain
and histogram. The software also allows customers to write to and read from registers, to calibrate the
device or the system’s gain, offset, and scale settings, and most importantly, to configure and learn about
the LMP90100.
This document describes the connection between the boards and PC, provides a quick start for a DC,
shorted input, 3-wire RTD, and thermocouple/temperature sensor applications. This document also
describes how to evaluate the LMP90100 with and without the SPIO-4 board and provides the schematic,
board layouts, and BOM.

Follow the step-by-step instructions under the “HelpBar” mini-tab (left hand side of the GUI) to
configure the LMP90100 for this example. These step-by-step instructions are discussed in
details below, and the recommended configuration should look similar to the figure below.
Figure 5 - Recommended LMP90100 Configuration for a DC Reading
1. Step 1: Select a Sensor - select “DC” “DC” since the input source is not a sensor.
2. Step 2: Configure Inputs – click on the “INPUT MUX” block to set “VINP = 000: VIN2”
and “VINN = 001: VIN3”. Since VIN0 = (3/4) VREF1 and VIN1 = (1/4) VREF1, the
measurement across this channel will be (1/2) VREF1.
3. Step 3: Source IB1/IB2? – this step can be ignored because neither IB1 nor IB2 is connected
to the inputs.
4. Step 4: Select Reference – click on the “VREF MUX” block to choose “VREF_SEL = 0:
VREF1”. Make sure the VREF1 value on the upper left hand side of the GUI is 4.1V
(default).
5. Step 5: Set Gain – since VIN = (1/2) VREF1, the maximum gain that can be set is 2 (with
buffer disabled). If the buffer is enabled, then the output might rail and enable the
“OFLO_FLAGS” flag. In this case, set the gain to 1. Click on the “FGA” block, “PGA”
block, or the “Gain” slider to select the gain.

6.0. Example #4: Thermocouple and LM94022 Application
A. Thermocouple and Cold Junction Compensation Background
Figure 19 – Thermocouple and Temperature Sensor Connection
As described in section 17.6.2. of the LMP90100 datasheet, because a thermocouple can only
measure a voltage difference and thus a temperature difference (relative temperature), it does not
have the ability to measure absolute temperature. To determine the absolute temperature of the
measured environment, a technique known as cold junction compensation (CJC) must be used.
In a CJC technique, the “cold” junction temperature, Tcold (Figure 19), 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. The LM94022 is placed underneath the thermocouple
connector J4 on the LMP90100 evaluation board.
The technique to calculate for Thot using the CJC method can be found in the LMP90100
datasheet.
The Sensor AFE software does have the ability to display the relative thermocouple temperature
using a Type K look-up-table (http://www.intech.co.nz/products/temperature/typek.html). In
addition, if the LM94022 (or any other temperature sensors) is connected to the LMP90100, then
the software can also read its temperature (Tcold). However, the user has to manually enter this
Tcold value in the
field located on the upper
left hand side of the GUI. The software will use this T_board value to calculate for Thot.

The thermocouple and temperature sensor schematic of the LMP90100 Evaluation Board are

connector (J4) to provide cold junction compensation. The thermocouple connector (J4) is made
for use with a type K thermocouple. The following subsections will explain how to configure the
LMP90100EB for the thermocouple and IC temperature sensor applications.

H. Configuring the LMP90100 for the Thermocouple Using the Sensor AFE Software
Follow the step-by-step instructions under the “HelpBar” mini-tab (left hand side of the GUI) to
configure the LMP90100 for the thermocouple. These step-by-step instructions are discussed in
details below, and the recommended configuration should look similar to the figure below.
March 2009
SNAU028A
25
Figure 23 - Recommended LMP90100 Configuration for a Thermocouple
1. Step 1: Select a Sensor - select “Thermocouple” select the thermocouple of your choice
or add your own thermocouple by clicking on “New”.
2. Step 2: Configure Inputs – click on the “INPUT MUX” block to set “VINP = 100: VIN4”
and “VINN = 011: VIN3”. Click on the “Eval. Board Settings button located next to the
block diagram. This should open up a PDF of the schematic for a thermocouple.
3. Step 3: Source IB1/IB2? – this step can be ignored because neither IB1 nor IB2 is connected
to the inputs.
4. Step 4: Select Reference – click on the “VREF MUX” block to choose “VREF_SEL = 0:
VREF1”. Make sure the value for VREF1 = 4.1V.
5. Step 5: Set Gain – since the differential junction across a thermocouple is low, the maximum
gain can be 128x. Click on the “FGA” block, “PGA” block, or the “Gain” slider to select
the gain. In this example, the gain can be 1x.
6. Step 6: Set Buffer – click on the “BUFF” block to include or exclude the buffer from the
signal path. The buffer can be excluded from the signal path in this example.
7. Step 7: Set Calibration - click on the “No Calibration” block to enable or disable calibration.
Refer to the LMP90100 datasheet to more information on the LMP90100’s background
calibration types and modes. In this example, the calibration can be OFF.

Under the “Output Format” field, select Display “Temperature (C)”
Under the “Run For” field, plot the “Selected Channel: CH0”
Under the “Stop Condition” field, select Run “1000 Samples”.
Click on the “Run” button to capture the temperature (Tcold) reading from the LM94022
(see figure below).
SNAU028A
27
Figure 25 – Temperature Sensor Reading for Tcold
6. Enter the LM94022’s mean temperature (see red box in the figure above) in the
“T_board” field located on the upper left hand side of the GUI. The software will use
this “T_board” value to calculate for the thermocouple’s absolute temperature (Thot).
If the LM94022 or any other temperature sensor is not connected to do cold junction
compensation, then the user can still manually enter a Tcold value in the “T_board” field
box.
7. In the Sensor Window, click on CH1 to read the thermocouple’s voltage and temperature.
Figure 26 – Sensor Window
8. In the “Measurement” tab, choose the “Output Format” as “Output Voltage (V)”,
and click “Run” to capture the thermocouple relative voltage.

9. In the “Output Format” field, choose to Display “Rel. Temp (C)”. This shows the
relative temperature of the thermocouple. This reading is not factoring in the cold
junction compensation.
Figure 28 – Thermocouple Relative Temperature Reading
10. In the “Output Format” field, choose to Display “Abs. Temp (C)”. This uses the
“T_board” temperature and factor in the cold junction compensation method to display
the absolute temperature (Thot) of the thermocouple.

7.0. Powering the LMP90100EB
There are two ways in which VA and VIO can be sourced: external supplies or SPIO-4 power.
If using external power supplies to source VA and VIO, then do the following:
1. Connect an external power supply to J1 for VA. Jumper pins 1 and 2 of JP1 to select this option.
2. Connect an external power supply to J2 for VIO. Jumper pins 1 and 2 of JP2 to select this option.
3. Jumper JP6 to connect the external power to VA.
4. Jumper JP7 to connect the external power to VIO.
If using the SPIO-4 power to source VA and VIO, then do the following:
1. Jumper pins 1 and 2 of JP4 to select 3.3V for VA and VIO, or jumper pins 2 and 3 of JP4 to
select 5.0V for VA and VIO.
2. Jumper pins 2 and 3 of JP1 to select the SPIO-4 power for VA.
3. Jumper pins 2 and 3 of JP2 to select the SPIO-4 power for VIO.
4. Jumper JP6 to connect the SPIO-4 power to VA.
5. Jumper JP7 to connect the SPIO-4 power to VIO.
The schematic for the LMP90100EB can be seen in section 10.
8.0. Evaluating the LMP90100 without the SPIO-4 Board.
The SPIO-4 digital controller board is used to generate the SPI signals to communicate to the
LMP90100. Without the SPIO-4 board, the Sensor AFE software for the LMP90100 cannot be used
to capture and analyze data from the LMP90100EB.
If the SPIO-4 board is not available but LMP90100 evaluation is desirable, then connect your own
SPI signals to J8 of the LMP90100EB as seen below.
Figure 30 - LMP90100EB’s J8 for SPI Signals
Refer to the LMP90100 datasheet for more information on the LMP90100’s SPI protocol.
