Product details
Overview
ADS112C04IRTET from Texas Instruments is a precision 16-bit delta-sigma ADC with integrated PGA (gain up to 128), dual programmable current sources (10 µA–1.5 mA), internal 2.048-V reference (5 ppm/°C drift), and I²C interface. It supports two differential or four single-ended inputs and delivers 16-bit noise-free resolution at 20 SPS for thermocouple, RTD, and bridge sensor signal conditioning in industrial field transmitters.
For engineers reviewing the ADS112C04IRTET datasheet, ADS112C04IRTET pinout, ADS112C04IRTET application, or ADS112C04IRTET equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world use cases, validated alternatives, and supply-chain support for high-accuracy analog front-end design in temperature-critical systems.
Technical Context
The ADS112C04IRTET integrates a low-noise PGA, dual matched IDACs, internal oscillator, and precision temperature sensor (±0.5°C accuracy) - all operating within a –40°C to +125°C range. Its digital filter enables simultaneous 50-Hz and 60-Hz rejection at 20 SPS with single-cycle settling, eliminating external notch filtering.
It uses a 2-wire I²C interface supporting Standard-, Fast-, and Fast-Mode Plus (up to 1 Mbps), with 16 pin-configurable addresses via A0/A1. The device operates from 2.3 V to 5.5 V analog/digital supplies and achieves as low as 315 µA typical current consumption in normal mode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit with no missing codes; ensures full-scale monotonicity for precision sensor digitization. |
| Data Rate | Up to 2 kSPS (turbo mode); 20 SPS offers simultaneous 50/60 Hz rejection for industrial EMI immunity. |
| PGA Gain Range | 1 to 128; enables direct measurement of µV-level thermocouple outputs without external amplification. |
| IDAC Output | 10 µA to 1.5 mA, matched ±2% (typ); supports 2-/3-/4-wire RTD excitation and burn-out detection. |
| Reference Voltage | Internal 2.048 V ±0.25% (WQFN), 5 ppm/°C drift (typ); eliminates need for external precision reference in most designs. |
| Temperature Sensor | Integrated ±0.5°C (–40°C to +125°C) sensor; enables cold-junction compensation for K-type thermocouples. |
| I²C Address Options | 16 unique addresses via A0/A1 pins; simplifies multi-node sensor networks on shared buses. |
Pinout & Package
ADS112C04IRTET is packaged in a 3.0-mm × 3.0-mm × 0.75-mm WQFN-16 (RTE) package with exposed thermal pad connected to AVSS.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0, A1 | I²C address select inputs | Configure one of 16 slave addresses; pulled high/low to set static bus identity without firmware overhead. |
| AIN0–AIN3 | Analog input channels | Support flexible MUX configuration: two differential (e.g., AIN0–AIN1, AIN2–AIN3) or four single-ended inputs. |
| REFP / REFN | Differential reference inputs | Accept internal 2.048-V reference or external reference; enable ratiometric measurements with bridge sensors. |
| AVDD / AVSS | Analog power supply rails | Separate analog domain (2.3–5.5 V) isolates noise-sensitive conversion circuitry from digital switching. |
| DVDD / DGND | Digital power supply rails | Digital core powered independently; decoupling required per datasheet to maintain I²C timing integrity. |
| SCL / SDA | I²C serial interface | Support up to 1 Mbps (Fast-Mode Plus); require DVDD-referenced pullups for reliable communication. |
| DRDY | Data-ready indicator | Active-low open-drain output signals conversion completion; used for interrupt-driven readouts without polling. |
| RESET | Hardware reset input | Asynchronous active-low reset clears registers and reinitializes internal state; minimum pulse width 250 ns. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

| Integrated cold-junction compensation | On-chip temperature sensor (±0.5°C) directly supports K-type thermocouple systems without external ICs or calibration lookup tables. |
| Dual matched IDACs | 10 µA–1.5 mA excitation currents with <2% matching error enable precise 3-/4-wire RTD measurements and automatic lead-wire resistance cancellation. |
| Low-power operation | 315 µA typical supply current (normal mode) extends battery life in portable or loop-powered field instruments. |
| Flexible reference options | Internal 2.048-V reference (5 ppm/°C) or external reference selection allows optimization between cost, accuracy, and system-level ratiometry. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS122C04IRTET | 24-bit resolution, lower max data rate (2 kSPS → 1 kSPS), higher current (350 µA → 420 µA), same pinout and feature set. | Better resolution for microvolt-level strain gauge measurements; less suitable for high-speed thermocouple scanning. | Select when 24-bit noise-free resolution is mandatory and 1-kSPS throughput suffices. |
| AD7124-4BRUZ | 4-channel, 24-bit Σ-Δ ADC with PGA, but uses SPI interface and requires external reference; no integrated temperature sensor or IDACs. | Requires additional components for RTD excitation and CJC; better for systems already using SPI and needing higher channel count density. | Choose when SPI infrastructure exists and external reference/IDAC flexibility outweighs integration benefits. |
Compared with ADS122C04IRTET and AD7124-4BRUZ, the ADS112C04IRTET uniquely balances 16-bit precision, I²C simplicity, integrated CJC, and dual IDACs - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained, thermocouple/RTD-focused industrial nodes where 16-bit resolution meets specification.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate of the ADS112C04IRTET, and under what conditions is it achieved?
The ADS112C04IRTET achieves a maximum data rate of 2000 SPS in turbo mode. This occurs with PGA enabled, gain = 1, and internal reference selected. At this rate, 50/60 Hz rejection is not available; that capability is limited to 20 SPS in normal mode. The device maintains 16-bit noise-free resolution only at ≤20 SPS.
Does the ADS112C04IRTET support K-type thermocouple measurements with cold-junction compensation?
Yes, the ADS112C04IRTET supports K-type thermocouple measurements with integrated cold-junction compensation. Its on-chip temperature sensor provides ±0.5°C accuracy from –40°C to +125°C, and the device's internal registers allow direct CJC calculation - eliminating the need for external temperature sensing components when using the ADS112C04IRTET in thermocouple applications.
What are the supply voltage requirements for the ADS112C04IRTET analog and digital domains?
The ADS112C04IRTET requires separate analog (AVDD/AVSS) and digital (DVDD/DGND) supplies. Both domains operate from 2.3 V to 5.5 V. AVSS and DGND may be tied together at a single ground plane, but best practice is to separate analog and digital grounds and connect them at a single point near the device. Decoupling capacitors (≥100 nF) are required on each supply rail.
Can the ADS112C04IRTET drive resistive bridge sensors directly, and what excitation options are available?
Yes, the ADS112C04IRTET can drive resistive bridge sensors directly using its dual programmable current sources (IDACs). Each IDAC delivers 10 µA to 1.5 mA with ±1% accuracy and <2% matching. These support 2-wire, 3-wire, and 4-wire configurations - enabling ratiometric measurements with bridge sensors while minimizing offset drift and self-heating errors.
Is the ADS112C04IRTET pin-compatible with other devices in the ADS112x family?
Yes, the ADS112C04IRTET is pin-compatible with the ADS112C04 (same WQFN-16 package), ADS122C04IRTET, and ADS122C04 - all share identical pin functions and layout. However, register maps and default configurations differ; firmware must be adapted for resolution, data rate, and feature enablement differences between 16-bit and 24-bit variants.
