Product details
Overview
LTC2404CG#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 4-channel, 24-bit micropower delta-sigma ADC with no-latency digital filtering, integrated oscillator, 4ppm INL, 0.3ppm RMS noise, and single-supply operation from 2.7V to 5.5V. It resolves sensor outputs in precision weight scales and industrial process control where extended input range (–12.5% to +112.5% VREF) accommodates signal conditioning offsets and overrange conditions.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2404CG#PBF datasheet, LTC2404CG#PBF pinout, LTC2404CG#PBF application, or LTC2404CG#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include 50/60Hz notch rejection ≥110dB, live-zero input range, SPI/MICROWIRE-compatible 4-wire interface, 200µA supply current in conversion mode, and guaranteed no missing codes across temperature.
Technical Context
The LTC2404CG#PBF implements a decimating FIR filter synchronized to an internal oscillator or external clock (1Hz–120Hz), enabling single-cycle settling with zero latency-ensuring the first conversion after channel change is valid. Its auto-calibrating architecture performs offset and full-scale correction every cycle, delivering stable 0.5ppm offset and 4ppm full-scale error over temperature.
It integrates a 28-pin SSOP multiplexer with four analog inputs (CH0–CH3), MUXOUT tied to ADCIN, and configurable FO pin for 50Hz/60Hz ±2% rejection or user-defined notch frequency. The 4-wire serial interface supports both internal SCK output (19.2kHz) and external SCK input modes without register programming.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 24-bit with no missing codes-guarantees monotonicity and eliminates code gaps in high-precision measurement systems. |
| INL | 4ppm max at VREF = 5V-enables 16-bit effective resolution even under full-scale stress conditions. |
| RMS Noise | 0.3ppm of VREF-translates to ~1.5µV RMS noise at 5V reference, supporting sub-microvolt-level signal detection. |
| Power Supply | 2.7V to 5.5V single supply-simplifies power design in battery-powered or mixed-voltage industrial systems. |
| Supply Current | 200µA in conversion mode, 20µA in sleep-extends operational life in portable instrumentation and remote sensors. |
| Input Range | –0.125 × VREF to +1.125 × VREF-absorbs ±12.5% gain/offset errors from upstream amplifiers or transducers without clipping. |
| Notch Rejection | ≥110dB at 50Hz or 60Hz ±2%-eliminates mains interference in laboratory-grade DVMs and strain gauge readouts. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-lead plastic SSOP (G package), 5.6mm × 10.2mm body, 0.635mm lead pitch, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pins 1,5,6,16,18,22,27,28) | Ground reference | Multiple dedicated ground pins reduce ground bounce and improve PSRR in noisy industrial environments. |
| VCC (Pins 2,8) | Positive supply | Dual supply pins enable low-impedance local bypassing with 10µF tantalum + 0.1µF ceramic capacitors. |
| VREF (Pin 3) | Reference input | Accepts 0.1V to VCC-supports low-voltage references for improved INL or high-precision external references. |
| ADCIN (Pin 4) | Analog input to ADC core | Connected to MUXOUT; receives selected channel's signal after internal multiplexing. |
| MUXOUT (Pin 7) | Multiplexer output | Drives ADCIN; must be externally tied to Pin 4 for standard operation. |
| CH0–CH3 (Pins 9–12) | Analog multiplexer inputs | Four active channels; CH4–CH7 are no-connect on LTC2404CG#PBF per datasheet. |
| FO (Pin 26) | Filter oscillator control | Selects 50Hz (FO=VCC), 60Hz (FO=GND), or external clock (FO=driven)-configures notch frequency without external components. |
| CSADC / CSMUX (Pins 23,20) | Chip select inputs | Driven in parallel for simplified 4-wire interface; CSADC enables SDO output and initiates data transfer. |
| SCK / CLK (Pins 25,19) | Serial clock I/O | Configurable as internal SCK output (19.2kHz) or external clock input-no mode registers required. |
| SDO (Pin 24) | 3-state serial data output | Provides EOC bit (Bit 31) for interrupt-driven microcontroller polling; high-Z when CSADC = high. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-latency digital filtering | Single-cycle filter settling ensures first conversion after channel switch is valid-enables true time-synchronized multi-channel sampling. |
| Integrated oscillator | Eliminates crystals, capacitors, or external clocks-reduces BOM count and layout area while guaranteeing 50/60Hz rejection stability. |
| Extended input range | –12.5% to +112.5% VREF accommodates sensor offset drift and amplifier saturation margins without external level-shifting circuitry. |
| Per-conversion auto-calibration | Continuous offset and full-scale correction removes long-term drift and supply/temperature dependencies-no calibration routines needed in firmware. |
| SPI/MICROWIRE compatibility | 4-wire interface operates with standard microcontroller peripherals-no custom drivers or protocol translation required. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 24-bit delta-sigma ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS1248IPWR | 8-channel, 24-bit, 2.5V–5.5V supply, 350µA typical current, integrated PGA (1x–128x), no internal oscillator-requires external clock or crystal. | Requires external clock source and PGA configuration; better suited for variable-gain sensor interfaces but adds complexity and component count. | Select ADS1248IPWR when programmable gain or higher channel count is required; avoid if oscillator-free design and minimal BOM are priorities. |
| MAX11206ETL+ | 4-channel, 24-bit, 2.7V–3.6V supply only, 125µA typical current, 75dB 50/60Hz rejection, no extended input range (0–VREF). | Limited supply voltage range and lower rejection make it unsuitable for wide-input industrial sensors or dual-supply systems. | Select MAX11206ETL+ only for ultra-low-power, single-supply 3.3V systems where 110dB rejection is not required. |
Compared with ADS1248IPWR and MAX11206ETL+, the LTC2404CG#PBF uniquely combines internal oscillator, 110dB line rejection, extended input range, and 200µA supply in a 4-channel configuration-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, high-stability industrial DAQ where external timing components must be avoided.

FAQ
What is the maximum sample rate of the LTC2404CG#PBF?
The LTC2404CG#PBF achieves a maximum output rate of approximately 7.68Hz when configured for 110dB 50Hz/60Hz rejection using its internal oscillator. With an external clock (e.g., 153.6kHz), the output rate increases to 75Hz. This trade-off between rejection depth and speed is fixed by the sinc³ filter architecture and cannot be altered via software.
Does the LTC2404CG#PBF require external passive components for its oscillator?
No, the LTC2404CG#PBF does not require external passive components for oscillator operation. Its integrated oscillator provides precise timing for 50Hz or 60Hz notch filtering when the FO pin is tied to VCC or GND. External clock mode (FO driven) also requires no additional RC or crystal components-only a clean square wave source.
How does the extended input range of the LTC2404CG#PBF benefit sensor interfacing?
The LTC2404CG#PBF's extended input range of –0.125 × VREF to +1.125 × VREF allows it to accept signals beyond the nominal 0–VREF span-such as negative offsets from op-amp stages or overvoltage transients from strain gauges. This eliminates need for external level-shifting or clamping circuits, preserving SNR and simplifying front-end design.
Can the LTC2404CG#PBF operate with a 3.3V reference voltage?
Yes, the LTC2404CG#PBF supports VREF from 0.1V to VCC. At VREF = 3.3V, it maintains 4ppm INL (typical), 0.5ppm offset, and 110dB 50/60Hz rejection. Input range becomes –0.4125V to +3.7125V, constrained by absolute maximum ratings (–0.3V to VCC + 0.3V). Performance remains fully specified across this range.
Is the LTC2404CG#PBF pin-compatible with the LTC2408CG#PBF?
No, the LTC2404CG#PBF is not pin-compatible with the LTC2408CG#PBF. While both use the same 28-pin SSOP package, CH4–CH7 (Pins 13,14,15,17) are no-connect on the LTC2404CG#PBF but active inputs on the LTC2408CG#PBF. Interchanging them without PCB revision will result in unconnected channels or incorrect routing.
