Product details
Overview
LTC2418CGN#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 16-channel (8-differential), 24-bit no-latency delta-sigma ADC with integrated oscillator, 2 ppm INL, 0.2 ppm RMS noise, and single-cycle settling. It operates from 2.7V to 5.5V and supports flexible ratiometric sensing via 0.1V–VCC differential reference input, used in high-precision industrial instrumentation and sensor digitization.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2418CGN#PBF datasheet, LTC2418CGN#PBF pinout, LTC2418CGN#PBF application, or LTC2418CGN#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 110 dB 50/60 Hz notch rejection, 200 µA active supply current, 28-pin SSOP package, 24-bit resolution with no missing codes, and SPI/MICROWIRE-compatible 4-wire interface.
Technical Context
The LTC2418CGN#PBF implements a third-order delta-sigma modulator with decimating FIR filter and on-chip autocalibration that performs offset and full-scale correction every conversion cycle. Its digital filter achieves first nulls at 50 Hz (FO = VCC) or 60 Hz (FO = GND), or user-defined frequencies via external oscillator (fEOSC/2560).
It supports programmable input configuration: 16 single-ended or 8 differential channels with bipolar input range of –0.5×VREF to +0.5×VREF; VINCM and VREFCM are independently adjustable from GND to VCC, enabling true remote sensing and wide common-mode rejection (>140 dB DC).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 24-bit with no missing codes - guarantees monotonicity and full dynamic range utilization. |
| INL | 2 ppm max over temperature - enables sub-ppm-level system accuracy without external trimming. |
| RMS Noise | 0.2 ppm of VREF - supports <1 µVRMS noise floor for microvolt-level signal digitization. |
| Supply Current | 200 µA in conversion mode, 4 µA in autosleep - suitable for battery-powered precision data loggers. |
| Notch Rejection | ≥110 dB at 50 Hz or 60 Hz ±2% - eliminates mains interference without external filtering. |
| Reference Range | 0.1 V to VCC differential - allows direct interfacing with low-voltage sensors and ratiometric bridges. |
| Common-Mode Rejection | >140 dB DC - rejects ground shifts and cable-induced offsets in remote transducer applications. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-lead plastic SSOP (GN package), 0°C to 70°C operating temperature range.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CH0–CH7 (Pins 21–28) | Analog Input Channel (Single-Ended/Differential) | Positive inputs for first 8 channels; configurable as IN+ in differential pairs with COM or CH8–CH15. |
| CH8–CH15 (Pins 1–8) | Analog Input Channel (Single-Ended/Differential) | Positive inputs for second 8 channels; enables full 16-channel single-ended or 8-differential operation. |

| REF+ / REF– (Pins 11/12) | Differential Reference Inputs | Accept 0.1V–VCC differential reference; enable ratiometric measurement and remote sensing. |
| FO (Pin 19) | Frequency Control Input | Selects internal 50 Hz (FO = VCC) or 60 Hz (FO = GND) notch, or enables external oscillator (fEOSC = 2.56–500 kHz). |
| CS (Pin 16) | Active-Low Chip Select | Wakes device from sleep, enables SDO output, and initiates data transfer; HIGH = autosleep mode. |
| SDO / SCK / SDI (Pins 17/18/20) | 4-Wire SPI/MICROWIRE Interface | SDO outputs 32-bit conversion result; SCK is bidirectional clock; SDI accepts channel address bits. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-latency digital filter | Single-cycle settling ensures each conversion output corresponds directly to the selected channel-no filter delay or redundant samples. |
| Per-conversion autocalibration | Continuous offset and full-scale correction eliminates drift due to temperature, supply variation, and aging-no calibration registers required. |
| Flexible input configuration | Software-selectable 16 single-ended or 8 differential channels with independent VINCM and VREFCM ranging from GND to VCC. |
| Integrated oscillator | Eliminates external crystals/capacitors; supports 50/60 Hz line rejection without component count or layout overhead. |
| High common-mode rejection | >140 dB DC CMRR enables accurate measurement in noisy industrial environments with ground potential differences. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 24-bit multichannel delta-sigma ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS1256IDBT | 24-bit, 8-channel, SPI interface; 30 kSPS max; requires external crystal; 120 µA typical supply current. | Higher speed but lower noise (1 µVRMS); lacks integrated 50/60 Hz notch and per-cycle autocalibration. | Preferred when higher throughput is needed and external clocking/filtering is acceptable. |
| MAX11206ETL+ | 24-bit, 8-channel, SPI interface; 10 SPS; integrated oscillator; 125 µA supply current; 0.15 ppm RMS noise. | Lower channel count (8 vs. 16), same notch capability; smaller 20-pin TQFN package. | Preferred for space-constrained designs where 8-channel capacity suffices and ultra-low noise is critical. |
Compared with ADS1256IDBT and MAX11206ETL+, the LTC2418CGN#PBF uniquely delivers 16-channel flexibility, true 0.2 ppm RMS noise, and autonomous 50/60 Hz rejection without external components-making it optimal for low-speed, high-stability industrial sensing where layout simplicity and long-term accuracy are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum number of analog input channels supported by the LTC2418CGN#PBF?
The LTC2418CGN#PBF supports up to 16 single-ended or 8 fully differential analog input channels. Pins CH0–CH7 (21–28) and CH8–CH15 (1–8) provide full 16-channel access, with COM (Pin 10) serving as the shared negative input for single-ended configurations. This matches the LTC2418 designation-distinct from the 8-channel LTC2414CGN#PBF.
Does the LTC2418CGN#PBF require an external crystal or oscillator?
No, the LTC2418CGN#PBF includes a fully integrated oscillator and requires no external frequency-setting components. The FO pin selects between internal 50 Hz (FO = VCC) or 60 Hz (FO = GND) notch modes, or enables external clocking (2.56–500 kHz) for custom rejection frequencies-eliminating BOM cost and layout complexity.
What reference voltage range does the LTC2418CGN#PBF support?
The LTC2418CGN#PBF accepts a differential reference voltage (REF+ – REF–) from 0.1 V to VCC, with REF+ and REF– independently ranging from GND to VCC (subject to ≥0.1 V differential). This enables direct ratiometric interfacing with low-voltage sensors, bridge transducers, and isolated references without level-shifting circuitry.
How does the LTC2418CGN#PBF achieve 110 dB 50/60 Hz rejection without external filters?
The LTC2418CGN#PBF achieves ≥110 dB 50/60 Hz rejection through its on-chip third-order delta-sigma modulator and decimating FIR filter, clocked by a highly stable internal oscillator. When FO = VCC or GND, the digital filter's first null is precisely aligned to 50 Hz or 60 Hz ±2%, rejecting mains interference inherently-no external passive or active filtering is needed.
What power supply voltage range is valid for the LTC2418CGN#PBF?
The LTC2418CGN#PBF operates from a single supply of 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Absolute maximum rating is –0.3 V to 7 V, but functional operation and specified performance (including INL, noise, and rejection) are guaranteed only within the 2.7 V–5.5 V range across the 0°C to 70°C temperature grade of the LTC2418CGN#PBF.
