Product details
Overview
LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 16-bit delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter with single-ended input, I²C interface, and internal oscillator. It operates from 2.7V to 5.5V, delivers ≤2 LSB INL and 0.02 LSB RMS noise, and supports programmable 30/60 sps conversion rates-ideal for low-power sensor monitoring in space-constrained industrial and environmental systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF datasheet, LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF pinout, LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF application, or LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultra-low 50 nA average input sampling current, single-cycle settling for multiplexed inputs, integrated reference flexibility (REF±), sleep-mode power of <0.2 µA, and DFN-8 (3 mm × 2 mm) package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF employs a proprietary delta-sigma modulator core with on-chip oscillator and continuous internal offset calibration in 30 Hz mode. Its input sampling architecture draws only 50 nA average current, enabling direct RC filtering without buffer amplifiers.
It uses a fixed 7-bit I²C slave address (0010100), supports standard/fast-mode I²C up to 400 kHz, and provides 16-bit MSB-first data output with no latency or filter settling delay. Conversion result is held indefinitely in sleep mode until read via SDA/SCL.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit, guaranteed no missing codes-ensures monotonicity across full scale. |
| INL | 2 LSB max-limits end-point linearity error to ±0.003% of full scale at 16-bit resolution. |
| Offset Error | 1 LSB max (30 Hz mode)-equivalent to ≤0.5 mV at VREF = 2.5 V, stable over temperature. |
| Conversion Rate | Programmable 30 or 60 sps-selectable via I²C write byte; 33.2 ms (30 Hz) or 16.6 ms (60 Hz) typical conversion time. |
| Supply Current | 400 µA during conversion, <0.2 µA in sleep-enables battery operation with sub-50 µW average power at 1 Hz read rate. |
| Input Range | GND to VCC (single-ended), referenced to external REF+ and REF−-supports rail-to-rail sensing with user-defined full-scale voltage. |
| I²C Interface | 2-wire, open-drain SDA/SCL, 400 kHz max clock-compatible with standard microcontroller peripherals without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead (3 mm × 2 mm) plastic DFN (DDB), exposed pad (Pin 9) connected to GND. RoHS-compliant, lead-free finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pins 1, 5, 9) | Ground reference and thermal pad | Pins 1/5 are signal ground; Pin 9 (exposed pad) must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity. |
| REF– (Pin 2) | Negative reference input | Defines lower bound of input range; must be ≥0 V and ≤(VCC − 2.5 V); differential reference span ≥2.5 V required. |
| REF+ (Pin 3) | Positive reference input | Defines upper bound of input range; must be ≤VCC and ≥(REF– + 2.5 V); sets full-scale voltage (VREF+ − VREF–). |
| VCC (Pin 4) | Positive supply | 2.7 V to 5.5 V operation; requires local 10 µF + 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling to GND (Pins 1/5/9). |
| IN (Pin 6) | Analog input | Single-ended voltage input ranging from VREF– to VREF+; 0.35 pF sampling capacitance enables low-impedance RC filtering. |
| SCL (Pin 7) | I²C clock input | Slave-only interface; accepts external clock up to 400 kHz; rising edge samples SDA, falling edge outputs data. |
| SDA (Pin 8) | I²C bidirectional data | Open-drain output during read; requires external 1.7 kΩ pull-up to VCC; high-impedance when not driving. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low input sampling current | 50 nA average-permits direct connection of 1 kΩ/0.1 µF RC filter with <1 LSB error, eliminating op-amp buffers. |
| Single-cycle settling | Full 16-bit accuracy achieved in one conversion-enables true multiplexed multi-channel sampling without settling delays. |
| Auto-sleep after conversion | Power drops to <0.2 µA automatically-reduces average consumption to <50 µW at 1 Hz read rate from 2.7 V supply. |
| Internal oscillator | No external timing components required-simplifies BOM and layout; eliminates crystal load capacitance sensitivity. |
| Continuous offset calibration | Active in 30 Hz mode only-maintains 1 LSB offset accuracy over time and temperature without user intervention. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar delta-sigma ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS1115IDGSR | 4-channel, programmable gain amplifier (PGA), 16-bit, 860 sps max; requires external reference; larger 10-lead VSSOP package. | Better suited for multi-channel, variable-gain sensor arrays; less optimal for ultra-low-power single-input use cases. | Select ADS1115IDGSR when multiplexing >1 sensor or needing PGA flexibility; LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF preferred for minimal footprint and lowest quiescent current. |
| MCP3421A0T-E/CH | 18-bit, 15 sps (default), internal reference only; I²C address selectable; 8-lead SOT-23 package; no REF± pins. | Higher resolution but slower; fixed internal reference limits input range flexibility and accuracy vs. external references. | Choose MCP3421A0T-E/CH for static high-precision measurements where speed and external reference control are secondary; LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF offers superior speed/resolution/power trade-off with design flexibility. |
Compared with ADS1115IDGSR and MCP3421A0T-E/CH, the LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF uniquely combines single-cycle settling, 50 nA input current, external REF± support, and sub-0.2 µA sleep in an ultra-compact DFN-making it optimal for battery-powered, space-constrained, single-input precision sensing.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF?
The LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF is rated for 0°C to 70°C (Commercial grade). This is confirmed by the "C" suffix in the part number and the order information table specifying "0°C to 70°C" for the LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF variant. The device features internal offset calibration in 30 Hz mode that maintains accuracy across this full range.
Does the LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF require external components for basic operation?
No, the LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF requires no external timing components-the internal oscillator eliminates need for crystals or RC networks. Basic operation only needs two decoupling capacitors (0.1 µF and 10 µF) between VCC and GND, plus a 1.7 kΩ pull-up resistor on SDA. REF+ and REF– can be tied directly to VCC and GND for simplest configuration.
How does the LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF achieve single-cycle settling time?
The LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF achieves single-cycle settling through its proprietary delta-sigma modulator architecture and input sampling scheme. Unlike conventional delta-sigma converters requiring multiple cycles to settle after input changes, the LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF completes full 16-bit conversion accuracy in one cycle-enabling true multiplexed sampling without guard-band delays.
Can the LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF operate with a 1.8 V supply?
No, the LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF has a minimum supply voltage of 2.7 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. Operation below 2.7 V is outside datasheet specifications and may result in undefined behavior, including failure to complete conversion or incorrect I²C communication.
What is the I²C address of the LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF?
The LTC2451CDDB#TRMPBF has a fixed 7-bit I²C slave address of 0010100 (0x24 in hexadecimal). This is factory-programmed and non-configurable. The device responds to this address followed by a read (R=1) or write (W=0) bit, and supports repeated START conditions for continuous read/write sequences.
