General Description
The ADC12130 ADC12132 and ADC12138 are 12-bit plus
sign successive approximation A D converters with serial
I O and configurable input multiplexer The ADC12132 and
ADC12138 have a 2 and an 8 channel multiplexer respec-
tively The differential multiplexer outputs and A D inputs
are available on the MUXOUT1 MUXOUT2 A DIN1 and
A DIN2 pins The ADC12130 has a two channel multiplexer
with the multiplexer outputs and A D inputs internally con-
nected The ADC12130 family is tested with a 5 MHz clock
On request these A Ds go through a self calibration pro-
cess that adjusts linearity zero and full-scale errors to typi-
cally less than
g
1 LSB each
The analog inputs can be configured to operate in various
combinations of single-ended differential or pseudo-differ-
ential modes A fully differential unipolar analog input range
(0V to a5V) can be accommodated with a single a5V sup-
ply In the differential modes valid outputs are obtained
even when the negative inputs are greater than the positive
because of the 12-bit plus sign output data format
The serial I O is configured to comply with the NSC
