Product details
Overview
ADS1217IPFBR from Texas Instruments is a 24-bit delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter with 8-channel multiplexed inputs, programmable gain amplifier (1–128), on-chip 1.25V/2.5V reference, and SPI interface - designed for high-precision industrial measurement systems requiring ±2VREF full-scale input, <1 mW power at 3V, and 22-bit effective resolution at PGA=1.
For engineers reviewing the ADS1217IPFBR datasheet, ADS1217IPFBR pinout, ADS1217IPFBR application, or ADS1217IPFBR equivalent, key selection criteria include differential input impedance (10 MΩ/PGA), burnout current sources (2 µA), offset DAC range (±VREF/PGA), sinc3 filter settling (3 conversion cycles), and TQFP-48 package compatibility with industrial PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The ADS1217IPFBR implements a 2nd-order delta-sigma modulator with programmable sinc2/sinc3/fast-settling digital filters and supports ratiometric measurements via differential VREF+ and VREF– inputs. Its internal PGA enables signal conditioning before quantization, while dual 8-bit IDACs (IDAC1/IDAC2) provide independent current outputs for sensor biasing or offset correction.
It integrates an input buffer (enabling >1 GΩ effective impedance when active), open/short detection via burnout current sources, and on-chip self-calibration for offset and gain errors. The device operates across AVDD = 2.7–5.25 V and supports data rates up to 1 kHz with single-cycle settling in fast mode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 24-bit no-missing-codes performance ensures unambiguous digitization of ultra-low-level signals without code gaps. |
| INL (max) | 0.0012% of FSR (end-point fit) guarantees high linearity for precision weighing and chromatography calibration. |
| Effective Resolution | 22 bits at PGA = 1 (19 bits at PGA = 128) defines usable dynamic range after noise and distortion are factored in. |
| Data Rate | Up to 1 kHz programmable output rate allows real-time monitoring in portable instrumentation and smart transmitters. |
| Reference | On-chip selectable 1.25 V / 2.5 V reference eliminates external reference ICs and simplifies ratiometric sensor interfacing. |
| Power Consumption | <1 mW at VDD = 3 V enables battery-powered operation in handheld analyzers and field-deployable sensors. |
| Input Channels | 8 fully differential multiplexed inputs support simultaneous multi-sensor acquisition in process control systems. |
Pinout & Package
TQFP-48 package (7 mm × 7 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad; RoHS-compliant, rated for –40°C to +85°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AIN0–AIN7 | Differential analog input channels | Support 8 independent differential pairs; configurable as any positive/negative combination via internal mux. |
| AINCOM | Common-mode reference for all analog inputs | Serves as shared reference node for pseudo-differential or single-ended configurations with buffer enabled. |
| VREF+, VREF– | Differential reference voltage inputs | Enable ratiometric measurement; accept external references or connect to internal VREFOUT for fixed-ratio scaling. |
| IDAC1, IDAC2 | Current DAC outputs | Provide 0.5–20 mA programmable sink/source for RTD biasing, bridge excitation, or open-circuit detection. |
| BUFEN | Input buffer enable control | When asserted, increases input impedance to >1 GΩ but reduces input voltage range and increases current draw. |
| DRDY | Data-ready indicator | Active-low signal pulses when new conversion result is available in output register; synchronizes host read timing. |
| SCLK, DIN, DOUT, CS | SPI-compatible serial interface | Supports standard 4-wire SPI with Schmitt-trigger inputs; POL bit selects clock polarity for legacy controller compatibility. |
| D0–D7 | Configurable digital I/O | Eight bidirectional GPIO pins usable for status signaling, sensor control, or system-level handshaking. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Single-cycle settling mode | Enables rapid channel switching in dynamic multi-sensor systems without waiting for full filter convergence. |
| On-chip burnout current sources | 2 µA sourcing/sinking per channel detects open or shorted thermocouples, strain gauges, or RTDs without external circuitry. |
| Programmable sinc filters | Sinc2 (2-cycle), sinc3 (3-cycle), and fast-settling (1-cycle) modes allow trade-off between noise rejection and response time. |
| Offset DAC (8-bit) | ±VREF/PGA range corrects sensor zero-point drift digitally, preserving full 24-bit resolution without hardware recalibration. |
| Self- and system calibration | Internal offset/gain calibration commands reduce initial errors; system calibration supports end-of-line adjustment with known stimuli. |
| Temperature sensing diode | On-chip diode connected via AIN mux enables embedded temperature monitoring without external components. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-resolution delta-sigma ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS1220IPWR | 4-channel, 24-bit, integrated PGA (1–128), but no IDACs or burnout sources; lower power (350 µA typ). | Lacks dual IDACs and open-circuit detection - unsuitable for 4–20 mA loop or RTD diagnostics. | Select when channel count and power are prioritized over sensor excitation and fault detection. |
| AD7177-2BRUZ | 8-channel, 32-bit, 10 kSPS max, no on-chip reference or IDACs; requires external REF and excitation circuitry. | Higher resolution but lacks integrated biasing - adds design complexity and board space for chromatography front-ends. | Select for ultra-high-precision lab instruments where external reference stability justifies added cost and layout effort. |
Compared with ADS1220IPWR and AD7177-2BRUZ, the ADS1217IPFBR uniquely combines 8-channel multiplexing, dual IDACs, burnout detection, and on-chip reference in a single TQFP-48 package - enabling compact, self-contained sensor signal chains for industrial and medical field devices without external support components.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by the ADS1217IPFBR?
The ADS1217IPFBR supports programmable data output rates up to 1 kHz in fast-settling mode. At lower rates (e.g., 10 Hz), it achieves 24-bit no-missing-codes performance and 130 dB common-mode rejection at 60 Hz - making ADS1217IPFBR ideal for both high-speed monitoring and ultra-stable precision measurement tasks.
Does the ADS1217IPFBR include an internal voltage reference?
Yes, the ADS1217IPFBR integrates a selectable on-chip voltage reference delivering either 1.25 V or 2.5 V, controlled by REF HI and REF EN bits in the setup register. When enabled, VREFOUT must be bypassed with a 0.1 µF capacitor to AGND - a key implementation detail for stable ADS1217IPFBR operation in noise-sensitive environments.
How does the burnout current feature work on the ADS1217IPFBR?
The ADS1217IPFBR provides two 2 µA burnout current sources - one sourcing from the selected AIN+ channel and one sinking from AIN–. Enabled via the Burnout bit in the ACR register, they detect open circuits (full-scale reading) or shorts (0 V differential) - a critical diagnostic capability for ADS1217IPFBR deployments in remote or safety-critical sensor networks.
Can the ADS1217IPFBR operate from a 3 V supply?
Yes, the ADS1217IPFBR operates across AVDD = 2.7 V to 5.25 V. At AVDD = 3 V, it delivers 24-bit resolution, 0.0012% INL, and <1.4 mW power dissipation - validated in the official datasheet under AVDD = 3 V conditions. This makes ADS1217IPFBR suitable for battery-powered portable instrumentation without performance compromise.
What package type is used for the ADS1217IPFBR?
The ADS1217IPFBR uses a TQFP-48 package (7 mm × 7 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad, designated by the PFB suffix in TI's ordering nomenclature. This surface-mount package supports automated assembly and provides adequate thermal performance for continuous operation in industrial enclosures up to +85°C.
