Product details
Overview
ADS1232IPWRG4 from Texas Instruments is a 24-bit delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter optimized for bridge sensor front-ends, featuring a two-channel differential input with integrated temperature sensor, selectable PGA gains of 1/2/64/128, and 23.5-bit effective resolution at 10SPS. It delivers 100dB simultaneous 50Hz/60Hz rejection and supports ratiometric measurements using external reference up to 5V in weigh scale and industrial pressure sensing systems.
For engineers reviewing the ADS1232IPWRG4 datasheet, ADS1232IPWRG4 pinout, ADS1232IPWRG4 application, or ADS1232IPWRG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its TSSOP-24 package, internal oscillator clocking, two-wire serial interface compatibility with MSP430 microcontrollers, and on-demand offset calibration without register programming.
Technical Context
The ADS1232IPWRG4 integrates a third-order delta-sigma modulator with fourth-order digital filter, low-drift chopper-stabilized PGA, and input multiplexer controlled by A0 and TEMP pins. Its analog signal path supports ±2.5V full-scale input at gain=1 and ±19.5mV at gain=128, with rail-to-rail operation only at gains 1 and 2.
It operates across –40°C to +105°C with AVDD/DVDD from 2.7V to 5.3V, uses dedicated pin-driven control (no registers), and provides dual-mode output via DRDY/DOUT - asserting DRDY low for data-ready indication and shifting out MSB-first data on SCLK rising edges.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision bridge-sensor ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS1230IPW | Single-channel, no temperature sensor, same PGA and filter architecture | Lacks second input and TEMP function - suitable only for single-sensor systems | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs multi-channel or temperature monitoring needs |
| AD7792BRUZ | 24-bit ΣΔ ADC with 3-channel mux, programmable current sources, SPI interface | Requires SPI register configuration; includes excitation current for RTD but no integrated temp sensor | Choose for mixed-sensor systems needing RTD or thermocouple support alongside bridge inputs |
Compared with ADS1230IPW and AD7792BRUZ, the ADS1232IPWRG4 uniquely combines dual differential inputs, on-chip temperature sensing, and pin-driven simplicity - making it optimal for compact, low-firmware-overhead weigh scale designs where layout space and calibration time are constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended external reference voltage for the ADS1232IPWRG4?
The ADS1232IPWRG4 supports external reference voltages up to 5V applied between REFP and REFN pins. The reference input range is specified as 1.5V to AVDD, and AVDD may be as high as 5.3V, but TI recommends limiting VREF to ≤5V to maintain absolute maximum ratings compliance and ensure long-term reliability across temperature extremes.
Does the ADS1232IPWRG4 require external configuration registers to operate?
No, the ADS1232IPWRG4 uses pin-driven control - all functions including data rate (SPEED), PGA gain (GAIN0/GAIN1), input selection (A0/TEMP), and calibration (SCLK pulse) are managed directly through dedicated digital inputs. There are no internal registers to program, eliminating firmware complexity and initialization sequences required by SPI/I²C ADCs.
How does the temperature sensor in the ADS1232IPWRG4 function, and what is its accuracy?
The ADS1232IPWRG4 integrates a diode-based temperature sensor activated by setting the TEMP pin high. It measures the voltage difference between two scaled diodes (1× and 80×), yielding a nominal 111.7mV at 25°C with 379µV/°C coefficient. Accuracy is limited by PGA gain dependency - usable only at gains 1 or 2, and uncalibrated drift is ±500nV/°C typical, requiring system-level calibration for <1°C error.
Can the ADS1232IPWRG4 interface directly with an MSP430 microcontroller without level-shifting?
Yes, the ADS1232IPWRG4 is fully compatible with MSP430 I/O voltage levels. Its digital pins (SCLK, DRDY/DOUT, PDWN, SPEED, GAIN0/GAIN1, A0, TEMP) operate at DVDD-supplied logic levels (2.7V–5.3V), matching MSP430's 3.3V or 5V GPIO ranges. No level-shifting is needed when DVDD = 3.3V or 5V, and the two-wire interface requires only two GPIOs plus optional interrupt on DRDY.
What is the purpose of the CAP pins (9 and 10) on the ADS1232IPWRG4?
Pins 9 and 10 (CAP) on the ADS1232IPWRG4 are PGA bypass terminals requiring a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor connected directly between them. This capacitor stabilizes the internal PGA feedback network, suppresses high-frequency oscillation, and ensures specified noise performance - omission causes gain inaccuracy and increased RMS noise, especially at gains 64 and 128.
