Product details
Overview
LTC2489IDE#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 16-bit, no-latency delta-sigma ADC with 4 single-ended or 2 differential analog inputs, I²C interface, Easy Drive input current cancellation, and integrated oscillator. It delivers 2 ppm INL, 1 ppm offset error, 600 nV RMS noise, simultaneous 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection, and operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V - enabling direct digitization of high-impedance sensors in industrial temperature monitoring systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2489IDE#PBF datasheet, LTC2489IDE#PBF pinout, LTC2489IDE#PBF application, or LTC2489IDE#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail input support with zero differential input current, GND-to-VCC common-mode range independent of reference voltage, guaranteed no missing codes, and seamless channel switching with first-conversion validity after multiplexer reconfiguration.
Technical Context
The LTC2489IDE#PBF implements a 3rd-order delta-sigma modulator with decimating FIR filter and automatic per-conversion offset/full-scale calibration. Its patented Easy Drive architecture cancels differential input current via passive sampling network, eliminating dynamic errors without on-chip buffers.
It supports internal 307.2 kHz oscillator or external clock (10–1000 kHz) for configurable data rate and notch placement; features 9-pin-selectable I²C addresses plus global sync address; and maintains 140 dB DC input common-mode rejection and 87 dB 50/60 Hz normal-mode rejection across –40°C to +85°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit with no missing codes - ensures monotonic transfer function and unambiguous digital representation across full input range. |
| INL | 2 ppm of VREF - enables sub-μV linearity error in precision sensor interfaces with 5 V reference. |
| Offset Error | ±0.5 µV typical - eliminates need for system-level offset trimming in low-drift instrumentation designs. |
| Noise | 600 nV RMS - corresponds to 0.02 LSB transition noise at 5 V reference, supporting 16-bit effective resolution. |
| Supply Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - allows operation from single Li-ion cell or standard 3.3 V/5 V rails with 0.8 mW typical power. |
| Input Configuration | 4 single-ended or 2 differential channels - supports flexible sensor interfacing including thermocouples, RTDs, and bridge transducers. |
| Rejection | Simultaneous 50 Hz and 60 Hz - removes mains interference without external filtering or software averaging. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 14-lead (4 mm × 3 mm) plastic DFN with exposed pad (Pin 15 = GND, must be soldered).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| fO (Pin 1) | Frequency control input | Selects internal oscillator (GND) or external clock (10–1000 kHz); determines conversion rate and digital filter null placement. |
| CA0, CA1 (Pins 2, 3) | I²C address configuration | Three-state pins (LOW/HIGH/FLOAT) set one of nine device addresses; enable multi-drop bus operation. |
| SCL (Pin 4) | I²C serial clock input | Slave-only interface; accepts up to 400 kHz clock; defines timing for SDA data sampling and output latching. |
| SDA (Pin 5) | Bidirectional I²C data line | Open-drain output during read (24-bit conversion result), high-impedance input during write (8-bit channel select). |
| GND (Pin 6) | Analog/digital ground reference | Common return for supply, reference, and analog inputs; requires low-impedance PCB connection. |
| COM (Pin 7) | Common negative input | Shared IN– for all single-ended configurations; supports rail-to-rail voltage (GND – 0.3 V to VCC + 0.3 V). |
| CH0–CH3 (Pins 8–11) | Analog input channels | Programmable as IN+ or IN–; differential pairs (e.g., CH0/CH1) or single-ended vs COM; tolerate ±0.3 V beyond rails. |
| VCC (Pin 12) | Positive supply | 2.7 V–5.5 V operation; requires 10 μF tantalum + 0.1 μF ceramic bypass close to pin. |
| REF+, REF– (Pins 13, 14) | Differential reference inputs | Set full-scale range (0.1 V to VCC); common-mode range = GND to VCC; no external buffer needed. |
| Exposed Pad (Pin 15) | Thermal & electrical ground | Must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal dissipation (θJA = 37°C/W) and noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No latency conversion | Digital filter settles in one cycle; first result after channel change is fully accurate - eliminates wait states in multiplexed sensor systems. |
| Easy Drive input current cancellation | Zero differential input current enables direct connection of >1 MΩ source impedances without gain/offset degradation. |
| Auto-calibration per conversion | Continuous offset and full-scale correction removes drift from temperature, supply, and channel switching - no user intervention required. |
| Rail-to-rail input with GND-to-VCC common mode | Inputs operate independently of reference voltage; supports single-supply systems measuring signals from GND to VCC. |
| Integrated oscillator | On-chip 307.2 kHz clock eliminates external crystal; simplifies BOM and layout while enabling precise 50/60 Hz rejection. |

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 | 16-bit, 4-channel, I²C, but lacks Easy Drive - differential input current limits source impedance to <10 kΩ without external buffering. | Requires op-amp front-end for high-Z sensors; no simultaneous 50/60 Hz rejection - needs software averaging or external notch filters. | Choose when cost sensitivity outweighs input flexibility and mains rejection; verify external amplification meets system noise floor. |
| MAX11200EEE+ | 18-bit, 1-channel, SPI interface, no integrated oscillator - requires external clock and separate channel multiplexing. | Not pin-compatible; demands external MUX and timing control logic; higher resolution but lower channel density and no auto-calibration. | Prefer for ultra-high-precision single-channel applications where 18-bit resolution justifies added complexity and board space. |
Compared with ADS1115IDGSR and MAX11200EEE+, the LTC2489IDE#PBF uniquely combines true rail-to-rail inputs with zero differential input current, built-in 50/60 Hz rejection, and per-conversion auto-calibration - delivering verified 16-bit accuracy across all four channels without external components or firmware overhead.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the LTC2489IDE#PBF?
The LTC2489IDE#PBF is rated for –40°C to +85°C ambient operation, making it suitable for industrial and automotive under-hood applications. This grade is confirmed by the "I" suffix in the part number and validated across all electrical specifications including INL, offset error, and 50/60 Hz rejection performance.
Does the LTC2489IDE#PBF require external components for basic operation?
No - the LTC2489IDE#PBF operates with only two external capacitors: a 10 µF tantalum and 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor on VCC. Its integrated oscillator, Easy Drive front end, and auto-calibration eliminate the need for external clocks, op-amps, or precision resistors typically required by competing ADCs.
How does the Easy Drive technology in the LTC2489IDE#PBF improve sensor interfacing?
Easy Drive cancels differential input current via a proprietary passive sampling network, enabling direct connection of high-impedance sensors (e.g., thermistors, pH electrodes) without gain/offset errors. This allows full 16-bit accuracy even with source impedances >1 MΩ - a capability not supported by standard delta-sigma ADCs like the LTC2489IDE#PBF's nearest alternatives.
Can the LTC2489IDE#PBF perform simultaneous 50 Hz and 60 Hz rejection without external filtering?
Yes - the LTC2489IDE#PBF's digital filter is inherently configured to reject both 50 Hz and 60 Hz line frequencies simultaneously when using its internal 307.2 kHz oscillator. This is achieved through deterministic notch placement in the decimating FIR filter, requiring no external hardware or firmware configuration.
What is the significance of "no latency" in the LTC2489IDE#PBF's operation?
"No latency" means the LTC2489IDE#PBF's digital filter settles in a single conversion cycle - the first output after selecting a new channel is fully accurate to datasheet specifications. This eliminates dead time in multiplexed systems and enables real-time channel scanning without sacrificing measurement fidelity.
