Product details
Overview
LTC2487IDE#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a 16-bit, 4-channel (2 differential) delta-sigma ADC with integrated PGA, Easy Drive input current cancellation, I²C interface, and on-chip temperature sensor. It delivers 2 ppm INL, 600 nV RMS noise, and programmable gain (1–256) for high-accuracy sensor digitization in industrial process control systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2487IDE#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2487IDE#TRPBF pinout, LTC2487IDE#TRPBF application, or LTC2487IDE#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its rail-to-rail input capability with zero differential input current, simultaneous 50/60 Hz rejection, no-latency conversion, and operation from 2.7V to 5.5V single supply.
Technical Context
The LTC2487IDE#TRPBF employs a 3rd-order delta-sigma modulator with decimating FIR filter and auto-calibration per conversion cycle, eliminating offset and full-scale drift across temperature, supply, and channel switching. Its Easy Drive architecture uses passive sampling network to cancel differential input current without on-chip buffers.
It supports 9 selectable I²C addresses via CA0/CA1 pins and global address for synchronization, operates with internal 307.2 kHz oscillator or external clock (10–1000 kHz), and provides configurable 1× or 2× speed modes with distinct noise and power trade-offs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit with no missing codes - guarantees monotonicity and full code coverage over full input range. |
| INL | 2 ppm of VREF - enables ±0.0002% linearity error in precision measurement applications. |
| Output Noise | 600 nV RMS (1× mode) - supports sub-microvolt signal resolution with 256× gain. |
| Gain Range | Programmable 1 to 256 in 8 steps - allows flexible scaling for mV-level thermocouples or high-voltage industrial sensors. |
| Temp Sensor Accuracy | ±2°C absolute, 0.5°C resolution - enables direct on-board temperature compensation without external sensor. |
| Common Mode Range | GND to VCC independent of reference - permits rail-to-rail analog inputs even with low VREF (e.g., 0.1V). |
| Power Supply | 2.7V to 5.5V single supply - compatible with standard logic rails and battery-powered instrumentation. |
Pinout & Package
The LTC2487IDE#TRPBF is housed in a 14-lead (4 mm × 3 mm) plastic DFN package with exposed pad (Pin 15) tied to GND and required to be soldered to PCB ground plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| fO | Frequency control input | Selects internal oscillator (GND) or external clock (10–1000 kHz); determines output data rate and filter null placement. |
| CA0, CA1 | I²C address configuration | Three-state (LOW/HIGH/FLOAT) pins enabling 9 unique I²C addresses plus global sync address. |
| SCL, SDA | I²C serial interface | Standard 2-wire slave interface supporting up to 400 kHz clock; SDA is open-drain requiring pull-up. |
| GND, Exposed Pad | Ground reference | Primary ground return path; exposed pad must be soldered for thermal and electrical integrity. |
| COM | Common negative input | Shared IN– for all single-ended channels; supports bipolar input range relative to selected CHx. |
| CH0–CH3 | Analog multiplexer inputs | Configurable as 4 single-ended or 2 differential inputs; voltage range extends beyond rails (–0.3V to VCC+0.3V). |
| REF+, REF– | Differential reference inputs | Set full-scale range (±0.5·VREF/Gain); VREF = REF+ – REF– must be ≥0.1V and ≤VCC. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-latency conversion | Digital filter settles in one cycle after channel change - first result is fully accurate, eliminating dead time in multiplexed systems. |
| Easy Drive input current cancellation | Zero differential input current - enables direct connection of high-impedance sensors (e.g., RTDs, thermistors) without external buffers or RC compensation. |
| Simultaneous 50/60 Hz rejection | Hardware-based notch filtering at both line frequencies - eliminates need for software averaging or external notch filters in AC-coupled environments. |
| Auto-calibration per conversion | Continuous offset and full-scale correction - maintains 1 ppm offset drift and 15 ppm full-scale error over temperature and time without user intervention. |
| Integrated temperature sensor | On-die PTAT element with 93.5 µV/°C coefficient - provides real-time die temperature for system-level compensation with <2°C absolute error. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar delta-sigma ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS114S08BIPBSR | 24-bit resolution, SPI interface, no integrated temp sensor, higher power (350 µA) | Requires external temperature sensing and SPI host; better for ultra-high-resolution but less integrated systems | Choose when 24-bit resolution outweighs I²C simplicity and on-chip temperature sensing. |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the LTC2487IDE#TRPBF?
The LTC2487IDE#TRPBF is rated for –40°C to +85°C operation, matching the "I" grade specification. This extended range ensures reliable performance in industrial control cabinets, outdoor sensor enclosures, and factory automation equipment where ambient temperatures exceed commercial limits. The device maintains full 2 ppm INL and 600 nV RMS noise specifications across this entire range.
Does the LTC2487IDE#TRPBF require external components for basic operation?
The LTC2487IDE#TRPBF requires only a 10 µF tantalum capacitor and 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor on VCC, pull-up resistors on SDA/SCL, and proper grounding of the exposed pad. No external op-amps, anti-aliasing filters, or reference buffers are needed due to its Easy Drive architecture, rail-to-rail input capability, and integrated reference rejection - simplifying layout and reducing BOM cost.
How does the Easy Drive technology in the LTC2487IDE#TRPBF eliminate input current errors?
The LTC2487IDE#TRPBF uses a proprietary passive sampling network that automatically cancels differential input current during conversion. This eliminates dynamic errors caused by source impedance mismatch, allowing direct connection of high-impedance sensors (e.g., thermistors >100 kΩ) without external compensation networks - preserving DC accuracy and simplifying front-end design.
Can the LTC2487IDE#TRPBF perform simultaneous 50 Hz and 60 Hz rejection?
Yes, the LTC2487IDE#TRPBF supports a dedicated simultaneous 50/60 Hz rejection mode enabled via configuration register. In this mode, its digital filter places nulls at both frequencies, rejecting common-mode interference from dual-standard AC mains environments - such as export-grade industrial equipment deployed globally - without requiring external notch filters or software post-processing.
What is the function of the fO pin on the LTC2487IDE#TRPBF?
The fO pin on the LTC2487IDE#TRPBF controls the conversion clock source: tying it to GND selects the internal 307.2 kHz oscillator for standard operation, while driving it with an external clock (10–1000 kHz) allows precise adjustment of output data rate and repositioning of the digital filter's rejection null - essential for custom line-frequency rejection or synchronized multi-device sampling.
