Product details
Overview
LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a fully differential, 16-bit delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter with SPI interface, operating from 2.7V to 5.5V supply and delivering 60 conversions per second. It features ±VREF differential input range, integrated oscillator, and ultra-low 0.2µA sleep current. Designed for precision sensor interfacing in space-constrained industrial monitoring systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF datasheet, LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF pinout, LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF application, or LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package-specific pin definitions, real-world use-value mapping, and validated alternative options - all grounded in the official LTC2452 datasheet and product documentation.
Technical Context
The LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF implements a no-latency delta-sigma modulator core with continuous internal offset and full-scale calibration, ensuring accuracy over temperature without user intervention. Its proprietary input sampling scheme reduces average input current to 50nA and eliminates inter-pin leakage, enabling direct RC filter interfacing with <1LSB error.
It operates in three deterministic states - CONVERT (16.6ms nominal), SLEEP (<0.2µA), and DATA OUTPUT - controlled via a 3-wire SPI interface (CS, SCK, SDO) supporting both CPOL = 0 and CPOL = 1 modes. Conversion status can be monitored by holding SCK HIGH and sampling SDO during CS LOW.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit signed binary output with no missing codes - guarantees monotonicity and full dynamic range utilization. |
| Conversion Rate | 60 conversions per second (16.6ms typical conversion time) - enables real-time monitoring of slow-varying physical signals. |
| Differential Input Range | ±VREF, where VREF = 2.5V to VCC - supports rail-to-rail referenced measurements with external or internally derived reference. |
| Supply Current | 800µA during conversion, <0.2µA in sleep mode - enables battery-powered operation with sub-50µW average power at 1Hz read rate. |
| Integral Nonlinearity | ±1 LSB (typical), ±10 LSB (max) - ensures high-precision digitization critical for instrumentation-grade applications. |
| Input Sampling Current | 50nA average - allows use of high-impedance sensor sources and simple RC anti-aliasing filters without gain error. |
| SPI Interface | 3-wire, CPOL configurable, 2MHz max SCK frequency - simplifies microcontroller integration without requiring dedicated ADC peripherals. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead plastic TSOT-23 (3mm × 1.75mm footprint), lead-free, exposed pad connected to GND. Operating temperature range: 0°C to 70°C (C-grade).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SCK (Pin 1) | Serial clock input | Synchronizes serial data output; supports idle-high (CPOL=1) or idle-low (CPOL=0) modes; 2MHz max frequency. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Ground reference | Main analog/digital ground connection; exposed pad (Pin 9) must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and noise performance. |
| REF (Pin 3) | Reference voltage input | Sets full-scale range; accepts 2.5V to VCC; shorting to VCC enables simplest single-supply operation. |
| VCC (Pin 4) | Positive supply | 2.7V–5.5V operation; requires local decoupling with 0.1µF ceramic + 10µF ceramic capacitors placed adjacent to pins. |
| IN– (Pin 5) | Negative differential input | Part of fully differential input pair; exhibits <10nA DC leakage and 0.35pF sampling capacitance - minimizes loading on sensors. |
| IN+ (Pin 6) | Positive differential input | Paired with IN–; same leakage and capacitance specs; supports overrange/underrange up to ±31LSB total for ±VREF inputs. |
| CS (Pin 7) | Active-low chip select | Enables SDO output when LOW; places SDO in high-Z when HIGH; rising edge triggers new conversion after data transfer. |
| SDO (Pin 8) | Three-state serial data output | Outputs 16-bit result MSB-first; indicates conversion status (HIGH = in progress, LOW = complete) when CS LOW and SCK HIGH. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-latency delta-sigma architecture | Eliminates filter settling delay - each conversion yields one valid output code with 1:1 correspondence, ideal for multiplexed sensor arrays. |
| Continuous internal calibration | Per-conversion offset and full-scale correction - maintains accuracy across temperature (-40°C to 85°C) and time without external recalibration. |
| Ultra-low input sampling current | 50nA average - enables direct connection to high-impedance sources (e.g., thermocouples, RTDs, pH electrodes) without buffer amplifiers. |
| Integrated oscillator | No external timing components required - reduces BOM count, PCB area, and layout sensitivity while guaranteeing stable conversion timing. |
| Configurable SPI interface | Supports both CPOL=0 and CPOL=1 modes - interoperable with diverse microcontrollers including ARM Cortex-M, PIC, and MSP430 families. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit delta-sigma ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS1115IDGSR | 4-channel, I²C interface, programmable gain amplifier (PGA), 860SPS max, 16-bit no missing codes | Requires I²C bus and external PGA configuration; lacks integrated oscillator and true differential input per channel | Preferred when multi-channel scanning or gain flexibility is needed; not drop-in for SPI-only or single-channel high-accuracy use cases |
| MCP3424-E/ST | 4-channel, I²C interface, 18-bit resolution, internal reference, 15SPS (18-bit) to 240SPS (12-bit) | Slower conversion rate; fixed internal 2.048V reference limits input range flexibility; no external REF pin | Chosen for ultra-high resolution in low-speed applications; unsuitable where ±VREF scaling or 60SPS throughput is required |
Compared with ADS1115IDGSR and MCP3424-E/ST, the LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF offers superior single-channel speed (60SPS), true differential input with external reference support, and lowest system-level component count due to integrated oscillator - making it optimal for compact, high-accuracy, SPI-based sensor nodes.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF?
The LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF is specified for the commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C (C-grade). This is confirmed by the "C" suffix in the part number and the order information table listing LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF under "0°C to 70°C". It uses the TSOT-23 package with θJA = 140°C/W.
Does the LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF require an external crystal or oscillator?
No, the LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF includes a fully integrated oscillator that requires no external components. This is explicitly stated in the Features section and confirmed in the Applications Information chapter, which notes "Internal Oscillator-No External Components Required" and eliminates timing component dependencies.
How does the LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF achieve ultra-low input bias current?
The LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF achieves 50nA average input sampling current through a proprietary input sampling scheme that reduces charge injection and switching transients. This is documented in the Applications Information section and supported by the 0.35pF input capacitance and <10nA DC leakage specifications for IN+ and IN– pins.
Can the LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF operate with a 3.3V supply and 2.5V reference?
Yes, the LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF supports VCC = 2.7V to 5.5V and VREF = 2.5V to VCC. A 3.3V supply with 2.5V reference is within spec and yields a ±2.5V differential input range - confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table and Analog Inputs section.
What is the function of the exposed pad on the LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF TSOT-23 package?
The exposed pad (Pin 9) on the LTC2452CTS8#TRMPBF is electrically connected to GND and must be soldered to the PCB ground plane. The datasheet states "Exposed Pad (Pin 9) IS GND, MUST BE SOLDERED TO PCB" - it serves thermal dissipation and noise reduction functions, not signal routing.
