Product details
Overview
LTC2480HMS#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 16-bit plus sign no-latency delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter with patented Easy Drive input current cancellation. It delivers 2 ppm INL, 1 ppm offset error, and simultaneous 50 Hz/60 Hz line rejection in a 10-lead MSOP package, operating from 2.7V to 5.5V supply. It directly digitizes rail-to-rail differential inputs up to ±0.5·VREF/GAIN with full DC accuracy-ideal for precision weight scales and strain gauge transducers.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2480HMS#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2480HMS#TRPBF pinout, LTC2480HMS#TRPBF application, or LTC2480HMS#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its H-grade extended temperature range (–40°C to 125°C), programmable gain (1–256), internal oscillator, and zero differential input current enabling direct high-impedance sensor interfacing without external buffering.
Technical Context
The LTC2480HMS#TRPBF implements a third-order delta-sigma modulator with continuous transparent offset and full-scale calibration, eliminating latency in digital filter settling. Its Easy Drive architecture cancels dynamic differential input current via patented sampling, allowing rail-to-rail common-mode input (0 V to VCC) independent of reference voltage.
It supports three line-rejection modes (50 Hz, 60 Hz, or simultaneous 50/60 Hz) and a 2× speed mode (15 Hz output rate with internal oscillator). The device uses either its on-chip trimmed oscillator (307.2 kHz nominal) or an external clock applied to the fO pin to control conversion timing and filter null placement.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: 10-Lead Plastic MSOP (3.0 mm × 3.0 mm × 1.0 mm), exposed pad grounded, rated for –40°C to 125°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SDI (1) | Serial Data Input | Configures gain (1–256), line rejection mode, input source (IN+/IN– or internal temp sensor), and 2× speed via 8-bit command on rising SCK edge. |
| VCC (2) | Positive Supply | 2.7 V to 5.5 V analog/digital supply; requires local 1 µF tantalum + 0.1 µF ceramic bypass to GND (Pin 8). |
| VREF (3) | Reference Input | Accepts 0.1 V to VCC; negative reference is GND (Pin 8); sets full-scale range as ±0.5·VREF/GAIN. |
| IN+ (4), IN– (5) | Differential Analog Inputs | Rail-to-rail common-mode (GND – 0.3 V to VCC + 0.3 V); zero differential input current enables direct connection to high-Z sensors. |
| CS (6) | Active-Low Chip Select | Wakes ADC from sleep; initiates data output; LOW-to-HIGH during transfer aborts output and starts new conversion. |
| SDO (7) | Three-State Serial Output | Outputs 24-bit conversion result on falling SCK edges; high-impedance when CS = HIGH; also serves as conversion status indicator. |
| GND (8) | Analog/Digital/Reference Ground | Single shared ground plane connection point; must be low-impedance; exposed pad (Pin 11) is GND and must be soldered. |
| SCK (9) | Bidirectional Serial Clock | Internal mode: output (38.4 kHz); external mode: input (≤4 MHz); mode auto-selected at power-up or CS falling edge. |
| fO (10) | Frequency Control Input | GND = internal 307.2 kHz oscillator; external clock overrides for custom data rates or adaptive filter nulling. |

This extended range is validated across all electrical specifications including INL, offset error, and line rejection performance, making it suitable for under-hood automotive and industrial control applications where ambient temperatures exceed standard commercial or industrial grades.
Does the LTC2480HMS#TRPBF require an external crystal or oscillator?
No, the LTC2480HMS#TRPBF includes an on-chip trimmed oscillator that operates at 307.2 kHz nominal, eliminating the need for external crystals or oscillators. The fO pin can be tied to GND to enable internal clocking, or driven externally to adjust conversion rate and filter null placement - providing design flexibility without added BOM cost or board area.
How does the Easy Drive technology in the LTC2480HMS#TRPBF improve sensor interface performance?
The Easy Drive technology in the LTC2480HMS#TRPBF automatically cancels differential input current through a patented sampling scheme, resulting in near-zero dynamic input current at IN+ and IN–. This allows direct connection to high-impedance sensors like 100 kΩ strain gauges or thermistor networks without external buffers, preserving signal integrity and eliminating errors caused by source impedance mismatch - a key advantage over conventional delta-sigma ADCs.
Can the LTC2480HMS#TRPBF reject both 50 Hz and 60 Hz line noise simultaneously?
Yes, the LTC2480HMS#TRPBF supports a dedicated simultaneous 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection mode achieving 87 dB attenuation at both frequencies. This is implemented in hardware via its digital filter structure and does not require firmware configuration or external components - enabling robust operation in globally deployed equipment powered from either 50 Hz or 60 Hz mains without redesign.
What is the function of the SDI pin on the LTC2480HMS#TRPBF?
The SDI pin on the LTC2480HMS#TRPBF is a serial data input used to configure device operation: it accepts an 8-bit command on the rising edge of SCK to select programmable gain (1–256), line frequency rejection mode (50 Hz, 60 Hz, or simultaneous), input source (differential analog or internal temperature sensor), and 2× speed mode - enabling full feature control over the 4-wire SPI interface without additional control lines.
