Product details
Overview
LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 24-bit, 16-channel (8-differential) delta-sigma ADC with I²C interface, Easy Drive input current cancellation, and integrated temperature sensor. It delivers 2 ppm INL, 600 nV RMS noise, and rail-to-rail input operation from 0 V to VCC, enabling direct digitization of high-impedance sensors in precision industrial data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF pinout, LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF application, or LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its no-latency ∆Σ architecture, programmable 50/60 Hz rejection, 0.8 mW power consumption at 7.5 Hz output rate, and 38-lead QFN package with exposed thermal pad.
Technical Context
The LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF implements a third-order delta-sigma modulator with decimating FIR filter and auto-calibration engine that performs full offset and full-scale correction every conversion cycle. Its patented Easy Drive front end eliminates differential input current errors without on-chip buffering, allowing direct connection of RC filters and sensors up to multi-MΩ source impedance.
It supports both internal oscillator (307.2 kHz) and external clock via fO pin for precise control of conversion timing and notch rejection. The I²C interface provides 27 configurable slave addresses plus one global address, and the device operates across 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply with GND-to-VCC common-mode input range independent of reference voltage.

Pinout & Package
Package: 38-lead (5 mm × 7 mm) plastic QFN with exposed thermal pad (Pin 39 = GND, must be soldered).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pins 1,4,6,31–34) | Ground reference | Seven dedicated ground pins minimize ground bounce and improve PSRR; all must connect to PCB ground plane. |
| SCL (Pin 2) | I²C serial clock input | Slave-only interface; rising edge clocks data in, falling edge clocks data out - requires external master clock. |
| SDA (Pin 3) | I²C bidirectional data line | Open-drain output during read; high-impedance input during write - requires external pull-up to VCC. |
| COM (Pin 7) | Common negative input | Shared IN− for all single-ended channels; supports ±0.5·VREF differential input range. |
| CH0–CH15 (Pins 8–23) | Analog input channels | Configurable as 16 single-ended or 8 differential inputs; each pair supports rail-to-rail common-mode voltage. |
| MUXOUTP/N (Pins 24,27) | Multiplexer outputs | Enable optional external amplifiers shared across all channels; support auto-calibration of amplifier offset/drift. |
| ADCINP/N (Pins 25,26) | ADC analog inputs | Differential inputs to modulator; accept buffered or direct MUXOUT signals - define final signal path gain/offset. |
| VCC (Pin 28) | Supply voltage | 2.7 V to 5.5 V operation; requires 10 µF tantalum + 0.1 µF ceramic bypass close to pin. |
| REF+/REF− (Pins 29,30) | Differential reference inputs | Set full-scale range (0.1 V ≤ VREF ≤ VCC); common-mode range independent of VREF value. |
| fO (Pin 35) | Frequency control | Connect to GND for internal 307.2 kHz oscillator; drive externally for custom data rates and notch tuning. |
| CA0–CA2 (Pins 36–38) | I²C address bits | Three-state (LOW/HIGH/floating) configuration yields 27 unique addresses - avoids bus conflicts in multi-device systems. |
Key Features

The LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF is specified for the commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. This grade is validated for use in non-automotive industrial equipment, test instruments, and commercial data loggers where ambient conditions remain within this envelope. The 'U' suffix denotes the QFN package, and 'C' indicates the commercial temperature grade - distinct from the industrial-grade LTC2499IUHF#TRPBF (–40°C to 85°C).
Does the LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF require external components for basic operation?
Yes, the LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF requires a 10 µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor between VCC and GND, placed as close as possible to Pins 28 and 1/4/6/31–34. An external pull-up resistor on SDA is also mandatory for I²C communication. No external oscillator or reference is needed - the device includes an internal oscillator and supports direct connection of external references from 0.1 V to VCC.
How does the Easy Drive technology in the LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF eliminate input current errors?
The LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF uses a patented passive sampling network that automatically cancels differential input current at the multiplexer output stage. This eliminates dynamic current errors caused by switched-capacitor sampling, enabling direct interface with high-impedance sources (e.g., pH probes, thermistors) without external op-amp buffers - while preserving DC accuracy and noise performance specified in the datasheet.
Can the LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF measure its own die temperature?
Yes, the LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF integrates a high-accuracy PTAT temperature sensor with 1/30°C resolution and ±2°C absolute accuracy. It can be selected as an input channel via the I²C command interface, providing on-chip thermal monitoring without external components - useful for ambient temperature compensation of sensor readings or system thermal management.
What I²C address options are available for the LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF?
The LTC2499CUHF#TRPBF supports 27 unique I²C slave addresses via three address pins (CA0, CA1, CA2), each configurable as LOW, HIGH, or floating (high-impedance). This yields 3³ = 27 combinations, plus one global address for synchronized conversions across multiple devices on the same bus - enabling scalable multichannel systems without address conflicts.
