Product details
Overview
LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 24-bit, 8-channel (4-differential) no-latency delta-sigma ADC with selectable speed/resolution, 2 µVRMS noise at 1.76 kHz output rate, simultaneous 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection, and integrated internal oscillator - used in high-precision industrial data acquisition systems requiring channel-scanned accuracy without settling delay.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF pinout, LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF application, or LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, application-specific implementation value, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and application-level differences.
Technical Context
The LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF implements a proprietary third-order delta-sigma modulator with decimating FIR filtering and per-conversion auto-calibration for offset and full-scale - enabling true no-latency operation where the first result after channel/speed change is accurate. It supports both internal and external clocking via FO and EXT pins, with 1X (no latency) and 2X (one-cycle latency) modes.
Its analog front-end accepts differential inputs with GND-to-VCC common-mode range independent of reference, and features MUXOUTP/ADCINP/MUXOUTN/ADCINN terminals to support external buffering - a distinguishing feature versus the LTC2444 family that improves noise performance by √2 (≈0.5 effective bits) at matched OSR settings.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 24-bit with no missing codes - guarantees monotonicity and unambiguous digital representation across full input range. |
| RMS Noise | 2 µV at 1.76 kHz output rate - enables sub-10 ppm measurement precision in fast industrial scanning. |
| INL Error | ±0.0005% (±5 ppm of VREF) - ensures linearity-critical applications like auto-ranging DVMs meet Class I accuracy. |
| Offset Error | <5 µV (4.5V ≤ VCC ≤ 5.5V, –40°C to 85°C) - eliminates need for system-level offset trimming in low-drift sensor interfaces. |
| Input Channels | 8 single-ended or 4 differential - supports multiplexed thermocouple, strain gauge, or RTD arrays without external mux IC. |
| Reference Range | 0.1 V to VCC differential - allows flexible scaling from 1.25 V to 5 V references while maintaining full 24-bit dynamic range. |
| Supply Current | 8–11 mA active, 20 µA autosleep at 6.9 Hz - enables battery-backed portable instrumentation with >1-year runtime. |
Pinout & Package
38-lead (5 mm × 7 mm) plastic QFN package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 39 = GND). All seven ground pins (1, 4, 5, 6, 31, 32, 33) must be soldered to PCB ground plane for proper decoupling and noise immunity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (1,4,5,6,31,32,33) | Ground reference | Multiple dedicated GND pins minimize ground bounce and enable clean separation of analog/digital return paths. |
| BUSY (2) | Conversion status indicator | Active-HIGH signal shows conversion progress; transitions LOW when 32-bit result is ready for readout. |
| EXT (3) | SCK mode select | Logic HIGH enables internal SCK generation on Pin 38; LOW configures SCK as external clock input. |
| COM (7) | Common negative input | Shared IN– for all single-ended channels; supports bipolar input range up to ±0.5×VREF. |
| CH0–CH7 (9,10,13,14,17,18,21,22) | Analog input channels | Configurable as single-ended or differential pairs (e.g., CH0+/CH1–); full GND-to-VCC common-mode range. |
| MUXOUTP/N (24,27) | Multiplexer outputs | Drive external buffer/amplifier; enable gain/level-shifting before ADC input without degrading noise or linearity. |
| ADCINP/N (25,26) | ADC analog inputs | Accept buffered signals from MUXOUTP/N; internal calibration removes external amplifier offset errors. |
| VCC (28), REF+ (29), REF– (30) | Power and reference | Differential reference supports 0.1 V–5.5 V range; VCC requires 4.5 V–5.5 V with local 10 µF + 0.1 µF bypass. |
| SDI (34), FO (35), CS (36), SDO (37), SCK (38) | 4-wire SPI interface | CS-active-low enables serial readout; SDI configures channel/speed/resolution; BUSY and SDO share pin during sleep/conversion. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-latency delta-sigma architecture | First conversion after channel/speed change is fully accurate - eliminates dead time and settling delays in multiplexed systems. |
| Per-conversion auto-calibration | Continuous offset and full-scale correction over temperature, supply, and time - removes need for periodic system recalibration. |
| MUXOUT/ADCIN signal path | Enables external gain/buffering with automatic cancellation of amplifier offset - preserves 24-bit integrity without manual trimming. |
| Simultaneous 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection | Guaranteed at 6.9 Hz output rate - eliminates mains interference in weigh scales and laboratory instruments without notch filters. |
| Autosleep mode | Reduces current to 20 µA at 6.9 Hz output - extends battery life in portable test equipment and remote sensors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-precision delta-sigma ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS1256IPWT | 24-bit, 8-channel, but uses external crystal; no built-in 50/60 Hz rejection; higher typical noise (3.8 µVRMS at 30 kSPS). | Requires external clock and digital filtering for mains rejection; less suitable for standalone portable instruments. | Select when board space allows crystal layout and system firmware can implement digital notch filtering. |
| LTC2449CUHF#TRPBF | 16-channel (8-differential) variant of same family; identical noise, INL, and MUXOUT/ADCIN architecture; larger pin count. | Supports double the input count for multi-sensor systems; requires revised PCB layout and channel mapping logic. | Select when expanding from 4- to 8-differential channels without changing signal chain topology or calibration strategy. |
Compared with ADS1256IPWT, LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF delivers guaranteed 50/60 Hz rejection and lower noise without external components; compared with LTC2449CUHF#TRPBF, it offers identical performance in half the channel count - simplifying layout and reducing BOM cost where 4 differential inputs suffice.

FAQ
What is the maximum output data rate of the LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF with external oscillator?
The LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF achieves up to 8 kHz output rate when an external oscillator is applied to the FO pin. This is enabled in 2X speed mode with external clocking, delivering one-cycle latency. At 1X mode with external oscillator, the maximum rate is 4 kHz - both configurations maintain full 24-bit resolution and guaranteed modulator stability across all input and reference conditions.
Does the LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF require external components for basic operation?
No, the LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF operates fully autonomously with only VCC bypass capacitors (10 µF tantalum + 0.1 µF ceramic) and optional external reference. Its internal oscillator eliminates need for crystals or RC networks, and MUXOUT/ADCIN pins allow optional external buffering without mandatory components. The device performs continuous auto-calibration without user intervention.
How does the MUXOUT/ADCIN feature improve system accuracy in the LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF?
The MUXOUT/ADCIN feature in the LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF enables insertion of an external op-amp between multiplexer output and ADC input. Because the LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF performs per-conversion offset calibration, it automatically cancels the DC offset of the external amplifier - preserving 24-bit linearity and eliminating manual trim circuits or calibration routines otherwise needed for gain stages.
What is the guaranteed input common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) of the LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF?
The LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF provides minimum 120 dB DC input common-mode rejection, specified over full temperature range. This is achieved through matched front-end transistor pairs and symmetrical layout - critical for rejecting noise in noisy industrial environments where sensor grounds differ from system ground.
Can the LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF operate with a 3.3 V supply?
No, the LTC2445CUHF#TRPBF requires VCC between 4.5 V and 5.5 V per Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. Operation below 4.5 V risks undefined behavior, failed calibration cycles, or violation of timing specifications - it is not rated or characterized for 3.3 V operation.
