Product details
Overview
LTC2497IUHF#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 16-bit, 16-channel (8-differential) delta-sigma ADC with Easy Drive input current cancellation, I²C interface, and integrated oscillator. It delivers 2 ppm INL, 1 ppm offset error, and simultaneous 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection for precision sensor digitization in industrial process control systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2497IUHF#PBF datasheet, LTC2497IUHF#PBF pinout, LTC2497IUHF#PBF application, or LTC2497IUHF#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail input support with zero differential input current, no-latency single-cycle digital filter settling, and direct high-impedance sensor interfacing without external buffering.
Technical Context
The LTC2497IUHF#PBF employs a 3rd-order delta-sigma modulator with decimating FIR filtering and patented Easy Drive sampling to cancel differential input current dynamically. Its auto-calibration engine performs full-scale and offset correction every conversion cycle, independent of channel selection.
It supports both internal (307.2 kHz) and external oscillator modes, enabling programmable output data rates from ~6.9 SPS to 6.9 kSPS. The I²C interface provides 27 configurable slave addresses plus one global sync address, operating up to 400 kHz in fast mode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 16-bit with no missing codes - guarantees monotonicity and full code coverage across full input range. |
| INL | 2 ppm of VREF - enables ±0.00003% linearity error in precision measurement applications. |
| Offset Error | 1 µV typical - allows sub-microvolt DC accuracy without factory calibration. |
| Noise | 600 nV RMS - corresponds to 0.02 LSB transition noise at 5 V reference, supporting high-resolution digitization. |
| Common Mode Range | GND to VCC - permits rail-to-rail input signals regardless of reference voltage setting. |
| Power Supply | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - supports single-supply operation across battery and industrial bus voltages. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for extended industrial environments without derating. |
Pinout & Package
38-lead (5 mm × 7 mm) plastic QFN package with exposed pad (Pin 39 = GND). Requires soldering of exposed pad to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pins 1,4,6,31–34,39) | Ground reference and thermal path | Seven dedicated ground pins + exposed pad ensure low-impedance return paths and stable reference for precision analog operation. |
| SCL (Pin 2) | I²C serial clock input | Slave-only interface; accepts external clock up to 400 kHz; defines timing for data transfer on SDA. |
| SDA (Pin 3) | Bidirectional I²C data line | Open-drain output during read; high-impedance input during write; requires external pull-up to VCC. |
| COM (Pin 7) | Common negative input for single-ended channels | Enables 16 single-ended inputs by pairing CH0–CH15 with COM; supports rail-to-rail common-mode voltage (GND – 0.3 V to VCC + 0.3 V). |
| CH0–CH15 (Pins 8–23) | Analog input channels | Programmable as 8 differential pairs or 16 single-ended inputs; each accepts ±0.5·VREF differential input range. |
| MUXOUTP/N (Pins 24,27) | Multiplexer outputs | Provide buffered access to selected analog input pair; enable optional external amplifiers shared across all channels. |
| ADCINP/N (Pins 25,26) | ADC front-end inputs | Direct connection point for MUXOUT or external signal conditioning; designed for minimal parasitic capacitance impact. |
| VCC (Pin 28) | Positive supply | 2.7 V to 5.5 V operation; requires 10 µF tantalum + 0.1 µF ceramic bypass close to pin for noise suppression. |
| REF+/REF– (Pins 29,30) | Differential reference inputs | Accept 0.1 V to VCC differential voltage; common-mode range spans full supply (GND to VCC), enabling flexible reference sourcing. |
| fO (Pin 35) | Oscillator control | Logic-low selects internal 307.2 kHz oscillator; external clock overrides for custom data rate and notch tuning. |
| CA0–CA2 (Pins 36–38) | I²C address bits | Three-state (LOW/HIGH/FLOAT) configuration yields 27 unique addresses; FLOAT sets bit to high-impedance for address expansion. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Easy Drive input current cancellation | Eliminates differential input current errors automatically, enabling direct digitization of high-impedance sensors (e.g., RTDs, thermocouples) without buffer amplifiers. |
| No-latency delta-sigma architecture | Digital filter settles in one conversion cycle - first result after channel change is fully accurate and usable immediately. |
| Simultaneous 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection | Hardware-based notch filtering removes both line frequencies concurrently without software intervention or oversampling trade-offs. |
| Per-conversion auto-calibration | Continuous offset and full-scale correction eliminates drift due to temperature, supply variation, and channel switching - no user calibration required. |
| Rail-to-rail input common mode | Supports input signals from GND – 0.3 V to VCC + 0.3 V independent of reference voltage, simplifying sensor interface design. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar multichannel precision ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADS124S08IPBSR | 24-bit resolution, SPI interface, no integrated oscillator, 4.5 V min supply | Higher resolution but lacks I²C compatibility and simultaneous 50/60 Hz rejection | Choose when 24-bit resolution and SPI integration outweigh I²C convenience and built-in line rejection. |
| MAX11206ETL+ | 24-bit, SPI, internal reference, 2.7 V to 3.6 V only, no Easy Drive | Lower supply range; requires external buffering for high-Z sensors; no automatic line-frequency rejection | Prefer for ultra-low-voltage battery systems where 24-bit resolution compensates for lack of Easy Drive and line rejection. |
Compared with ADS124S08IPBSR and MAX11206ETL+, the LTC2497IUHF#PBF uniquely combines I²C simplicity, zero-differential-input-current operation, and hardware-based dual-line-frequency rejection in a single 38-lead QFN - making it optimal for space-constrained industrial DAQ where sensor interface robustness and EMI resilience are critical.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC2497IUHF#PBF?
The LTC2497IUHF#PBF is rated for –40°C to +85°C, qualifying it for extended industrial applications. This grade ('I') differs from the 'C' grade (0°C to 70°C) and is explicitly confirmed in the Order Information table of the official datasheet. All electrical specifications labeled with 'l' apply across this full range.
Does the LTC2497IUHF#PBF require external amplifiers for high-impedance sensors?
No - the LTC2497IUHF#PBF uses Easy Drive technology to cancel differential input current automatically, enabling direct connection of high-impedance sensors (e.g., RTDs, thermistors) without external buffers. Its 11 pF input capacitance and <10 nA leakage current preserve DC accuracy even with source impedances up to 100 kΩ.
How does the LTC2497IUHF#PBF achieve simultaneous 50 Hz and 60 Hz rejection?
The LTC2497IUHF#PBF implements hardware-level notch filtering via its internal digital filter architecture, tuned to reject both 50 Hz and 60 Hz line frequencies simultaneously - confirmed in the Features list and Electrical Characteristics table under "Input Normal Mode Rejection 50Hz/60Hz ±2%" (87 dB min). No firmware or external components are needed.
What is the function of the fO pin on the LTC2497IUHF#PBF?
The fO pin controls the conversion clock source: grounding fO selects the internal 307.2 kHz oscillator; applying an external clock enables programmable data rates and adjustable notch frequency. This is documented in the Pin Functions section and Electrical Characteristics table under "fEOSC" (10–1000 kHz range).
Can the LTC2497IUHF#PBF operate with a 2.7 V supply and 2.5 V reference?
Yes - the LTC2497IUHF#PBF supports VCC from 2.7 V to 5.5 V and VREF from 0.1 V to VCC. Datasheet Electrical Characteristics confirm full performance (e.g., 2 ppm INL, 15 ppm total unadjusted error) at VCC = 2.7 V and VREF = 2.5 V, with specified behavior across temperature.
