General Description
The 16-bit CS5525 and the 20-bit CS5526 are highly integrated ∆Σ A/D converters which include an instrumentation amplifier, a PGA (programmable gain amplifier), eight digital filters, and self and system calibration circuitry. The converters are designed to provide their own negative supply which enables their on-chip instrumentation amplifiers to measure bipolar ground-referenced signals ≤±100 mV. By directly supplying NBV with -2.5 V and with VA+ at 5 V, ±2.5 V signals (with respect to ground) can be measured. The digital filters provide programmable output update rates between 3.76 Sps to 202 Sps (XIN = 32.768 kHz). Output word rates can be increased by approximately 3X by using XIN = 100 kHz. Each filter is designed to settle to full accuracy for its output update rate in one conversion cycle. The filters with word rates of 15 Sps or less (XIN = 32.768 kHz) reject both 50 and 60 Hz (±3 Hz) line interference simultaneously. Low power, single conversion settling time, programmable output rates, and the ability to handle negative input signals make these single supply products ideal solutions for isolated and non-isolated applications.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The CS5525 and CS5526 are 16-bit and 20-bit pin compatible converters which include a chopperstabilized instrumentation amplifier input, and an on-chip programmable gain amplifier. They are both optimized for measuring low-level unipolar or bipolar signals in process control and medical applications. The CS5525/26 also include a fourth order deltasigma modulator, a calibration microcontroller, eight digital filters, a 4-bit analog latch, and a serial port. The digital filters provide any one of eight different output update rates. The CS5525/26 include a CPD (Charge Pump Drive) output (shown in Figure 1). CPD provides a negative bias voltage to the on-chip instrumentation amplifier when used with a combination of external diodes and capacitors. This enables the CS5525/26 to measure negative voltages with respect to ground, making the converters ideal for thermocouple temperature measurements.
Theory of Operation
The CS5525/26 A/D converters are designed to operate from a single +5 V analog supply and provide several different input ranges. See the Analog Characteristics section on page 3 for details. Figure 1 illustrates the CS5525/26 connected to generate their own negative bias supply using the on-chip CPD (Charge Pump Drive). This enables the CS5525/26 to measure ground referenced signals with magnitudes down to NBV (Negative Bias Voltage, approximately -2.1 V in this example). Figure 2 illustrates a charge pump circuit when the converters are powered from a +3.0 V digital supply. Alternatively, the negative bias supply can be generated from a negative supply voltage or a resistive divider as illustrated in Figure 3.

Figure 4 illustrates the CS5525/26 connected to measure ground referenced unipolar signals of a positive polarity using the 1 V, 2.5 V, and 5 V input voltage ranges on the converter. For the 25 mV, 55 mV, and 100 mV ranges the signal must have a common mode near +2.5 V (NBV = 0V). The CS5525/26 are optimized for the measurement of thermocouple outputs, but they are also well suited for the measurement of ratiometric bridge transducer outputs. Figure 5 illustrates the CS5525/26 connected to measure the output of a ratiometric differential bridge transducer while operating from a single +5 V supply.

System Initialization
When power to the CS5525/26 is applied, they are held in a reset condition until their 32.768 kHz oscillators have started and their start-up counter-timer elapses. Due to the high Q of a 32.768 kHz crystal, the oscillators take 400-600 ms to start. The converter’s counter-timer counts no more than 1024 oscillator clock cycles to make sure the oscillator is fully stable. During this time-out period the serial port logic is reset and the RV (Reset Valid) bit in the configuration register is set. A reset can be initiated at any time by writing a logic 1 to the RS (Reset System) bit in the configuration register. This automatically sets the RV bit until the RS bit is written to logic 0, and the configuration register is read. After a reset, the on-chip registers are initialized to the following states and the converters are ready to perform conversions.
configuration register: offset register: gain register: 000040(H) 000000(H) 800000(H)
Command Operation
The CS5525/26 include a microcontroller with five registers used to control the converter. Each register is 24-bits in length except the 8-bit command register (command, configuration, offset, gain, and conversion data). After a system initialization or reset, the serial port is initialized to the command mode and the converter stays in this mode until a valid 8-bit command is received (the first 8-bits into the serial port). Table 1 lists all the valid commands. Once a valid 8-bit command (a read or a write command word) is received and interpreted by the command register, the serial port enters the data mode. In data mode the next 24 serial clock pulses shift data either into or out of the serial port (72 serial clock pulses are needed if set-up register is selected). See Table 2 for configuring the CS5525/26.

Reading/Writing On-Chip Registers
The CS5525/26’s offset, gain, and configuration registers are read/writable while the conversion data register is read only. To perform a read from a specific register, the R/W bit of the command word must be a logic 1. The SC, CC, and PS/R bits must be logic 0 and the CB (MSB) bit must be a logic 1. The register to be written is selected with the RSB2-RSB0 bits of the command word. To perform a write to a specific register, the R/W bit of the command word must be a logic 0. The SC, CC, and PS/R bits must be logic 0 and the CB (MSB) bit must be a logic 1. The register to be written is selected with the RSB2-RSB0 bits of the command word. Figure 6 illustrates the serial sequence necessary to write to, or read from the serial port. If the Set-up Registers are chosen with the RSB2RSB0 bits, the registers are read or written in the following sequence: Offset, Gain and Configuration. This is accomplished by following one 8-bit command word with three 24-bit data words for a total of 72 data bits.

Analog Input
Figure 7 illustrates a block diagram of the analog input signal path inside the CS5525/26. The front end consists of a chopper-stabilized instrumentation amplifier with 20X gain and a programmable gain section. The instrumentation amplifier is powered from VA+ and from the NBV (Negative Bias Voltage) pin allowing the CS5525/26 to be operated in either of two analog input configurations. The NBV pin can be biased to a negative voltage between -1.8 V and -2.5 V, or tied to AGND. The choice of the operating mode for the NBV voltage depends upon the input signal and its common mode voltage. For the 25 mV, 55 mV, and 100 mV input ranges, the input signals to AIN+ and AIN- are amplified by the 20X instrumentation amplifier. For ground referenced signals with magnitudes less then 100 mV, the NBV pin should be biased with -1.8 V to -2.5 V. If NBV is tied between -1.8 V and -2.5 V, the (Common Mode + Signal) input on AIN+ and AIN- must stay between -0.150 V and 0.950 V to ensure proper operation. Alternatively, NBV can be tied to AGND where the input (Common Mode + Signal) on AIN+ and AIN- must stay between 1.85 V and 2.65 V to ensure that the amplifier operates properly. For the 1 V, 2.5 V, and 5 V input ranges, the instrumentation amplifier is bypassed and the input signals are directly connected to the Programmable Gain block. With NBV tied between -1.8 V and -2.5 V, the (Common Mode + Signal) input on AIN+ and AIN- must stay between NBV and VA+. Alternatively, NBV can be tied to AGND where the input (Common Mode + Signal) on AIN+ and AIN- pins can span the entire range between AGND and VA+. The CS5525/26 can accommodate full scale ranges other than 25 mV, 55 mV, 100 mV, 1 V, 2.5 V and 5 V by performing a system calibration within the limits specified. See the Calibration section for more details. Another way to change the full scale range is to increase or to decrease the voltage reference to other than 2.5 V. See the Voltage Reference section for more details. Three factors set the operating limits for the input span. They include: instrumentation amplifier saturation, modulator 1’s density, and a lower reference voltage. When the 25 mV, 55 mV or 100 mV range is selected, the input signal (including the common mode voltage and the amplifier offset voltage) must not cause the 20X amplifier to saturate in either its input stage or output stage. To prevent saturation the absolute voltages on AIN+ and AINmust stay within the limits specified (refer to the ‘Analog Input’ table on page 3). Additionally, the differential output voltage of the amplifier must not exceed 2.8 V. The equation ABS(VIN + VOS) x 20 = 2.8 V defines the differential output limit, where VIN = (AIN+) - (AIN-) is the differential input voltage and VOS is the absolute maximum offset voltage for the instrumentation amplifier (VOS will not exceed 40 mV).

Note:
1. The converter's actual input range, the delta-sigma's nominal full scale input, and the delta-sigma's maximum full scale input all scale directly with the value of the voltage reference. The values in the table assume a 2.5 V VREF voltage. Table 3. Relationship between Full Scale Input, Gain Factors, and Internal Analog Signal Limitations
differential output voltage from the amplifier exceeds 2.8 V, the amplifier may saturate, which will cause a measurement error. The input voltage into the modulator must not cause the modulator to exceed a low of 20 percent or a high of 80 percent 1's density. The nominal full scale input span of the modulator (from 30 percent to 70 percent 1’s density) is determined by the VREF voltage divided by the Gain Factor. See Table 3 to determine if the CS5525/26 are being used properly. For example, in the 55 mV range to determine the nominal input voltage to the modulator, divide VREF (2.5 V) by the Gain Factor (2.2727). When a smaller voltage reference is used, the resulting code widths are smaller causing the converter output codes to exhibit more changing codes for a fixed amount of noise. Table 3 is based upon a VREF = 2.5 V. For other values of VREF, the values in Table 3 must be scaled accordingly. Figure’s 8 and 9 illustrate the input models for the AIN and VREF pins. The dynamic input current for each of the pins can be determined from the models shown and is dependent upon the setting of the CFS (Chop Frequency Select) bit. The effective input impedance for the AIN+ and AIN- pins remains constant for the three low level measurement ranges (25 mV, 55 mV, and 100 mV). The input current is lowest with the CFS bit cleared to logic 0.
DS202F5
Note: Residual noise appears in the converter’s baseband for output word rates greater than 60 Sps if CFS is logic 0. By setting CFS to logic 1, the amplifier’s chop frequency chops at 32768 Hz eliminating the residual noise, but increasing the current. Note that C=48pF is for input current modeling only. For physical input capacitance see ‘Input Capacitance’ specification under ‘Analog Characteristics’ on page 3.

Charge Pump Drive
The CPD (Charge Pump Drive) pin of the converters can be used with external components (shown in Figure 1) to develop an appropriate negative bias voltage for the NBV pin. When CPD is used to generate the NBV, the NBV voltage is regulated with an internal regulator loop referenced to VA+. Therefore, any change on VA+ results in a proportional change on NBV. With VA+ = 5 V, NBV’s regulation is set proportional to VA+ at approximately -2.1 V. Figure 3 illustrates a means of supplying NBV voltage from a -5 V supply. For ground based signals with the instrumentation amplifier engaged (when in the 25mV, 55mV, or 100mV ranges), the voltage on the NBV pin should at no time be less negative than -1.8 V or more negative than -2.5 V. To prevent excessive voltage stress to the chip the NBV voltage should not be more negative than -3.0 V. The components in Figure 1 are the preferred components for the CPD filter. However, smaller capacitors can be used with acceptable results. The 10 µF ensures very low ripple on NBV. Intrinsic safety requirements prohibit the use of electrolytic capacitors. In this case, two 0.47 µF ceramic capacitors in parallel can be used. The CPD pin itself is a tri-state output and enters tri-state whenever the converters are placed into the Sleep Mode, Standby Mode, or when the charge pump is disabled (when the Pump Disable bit, bit D8 in the configuration register, is set). Once in tristate, the digital current can increase if this CPD output floats near 1/2 digital supply. To ensure the CPD pin stays near ground and to minimize the digital current, add a 5MΩ resistor between it and DGND (see Figure 1). If the resistor is left out, the digital supply current may increase from 2 µA to 10 µA.
Voltage Reference
The CS5525/26 are specified for operation with a 2.5 V reference voltage between the VREF+ and VREF- pins of the devices. For a single-ended reference voltage, such as the LT1019-2.5, the reference’s output is connected to the VREF+ pin of the CS5525/26. The ground reference for the LT10192.5 is connected to the VREF- pin. The differential voltage between the VREF+ and VREF- can be any voltage from 1.0 V up to 3.0 V, however, the VREF- pin can not go below analog ground.
Calibration
The CS5525/26 offer five different calibration functions including self calibration and system calibration. However, after the CS5525/26 are reset, they can perform measurements without being calibrated. In this case, the converters will utilize the initialized values of the on-chip registers (Gain = 1.0, Offset = 0.0) to calculate output words for the ±100 mV range. Any initial offset and gain errors in the internal circuitry of the chips will remain. The gain and offset registers, which are used for both self and system calibration, are used to set the zero and full-scale points of the converter’s transfer function. One LSB in the offset register is 2-24 proportion of the input span (bipolar span is 2 times the unipolar span). The MSB in the offset register determines if the offset to be trimmed is positive or negative (0 positive, 1 negative). The converters can typically trim ±50 percent of the input span. The gain register spans from 0 to (2 - 2-23). The decimal equivalent meaning of the gain register is

The offset and gain calibration steps each take one conversion cycle to complete. At the end of the calibration step, the calibration control bits will be set back to logic 0, and the DF (Done Flag) bit will be set to a logic 1. For the combination self-calibration (CC2-CC0= 011; offset followed by gain), the calibration will take two conversion cycles to complete and will set the DF bit after the gain calibration is completed. The DF bit will be cleared any time the data register, the offset register, the gain register, or the setup register is read. Reading the configuration register alone will not clear the DF bit.

Self Calibration
The CS5525/26 offer both self offset and self gain calibrations. For the self-calibration of offset in the 25 mV, 55 mV, and 100 mv ranges, the converter internally ties the inputs of the instrumentation amplifier together and routes them to the AIN- pin as shown in Figure 10. For proper self-calibration of offset to occur in the 25 mV, 55 mV, and 100 mV ranges, the AIN- pin must be at the proper common-mode-voltage (i.e. AIN- = 0V, NBV must be between -1.8 V to -2.5 V). For self-calibration of offset in the 1.0 V, 2.5 V, and 5 V ranges, the inputs

VREF- as shown in Figure 12. For any input range other than the 2.5 V range, the modulator gain error can not be completely calibrated out. This is due to the lack of an accurate full scale voltage internal to the chips. The 2.5 V range is an exception because the external reference voltage is 2.5 V nominal and is used as the full scale voltage. In addition, when self-calibration of gain is performed in the 25 mV, 55 mV, and 100 mV input ranges, the instrumentation amplifier’s gain is not calibrated. These two factors can leave the converters with a gain error of up to ±20% after self-calibration of gain. Therefore, a system gain is required to get better accuracy, except for the 2.5 V range.

System Calibration
For the system calibration functions, the user must supply the converters calibration signals which represent ground and full scale. When a system offset calibration is performed, a ground reference signal must be applied to the converter. See Figures 13 and 14. As shown in Figures 15 and 16, the user must input a signal representing the positive full scale point to perform a system gain calibration. In either case, the calibration signals must be within the specified calibration limits for each specific calibration step (refer to the System Calibration Specifications).

Assuming a system can provide two known voltages, equations can allow the user to manually compute the calibration register’s values based on two uncalibrated conversions. The offset and gain calibration registers are used to adjust a typical conversion as follows: Rc = (Ru + Co>>4) * Cg / 223.
