Product details
Overview
MCP33131-05T-E/MS from Microchip Technology is a 16-bit, 500 kSPS single-ended successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter with no missing codes, ultra-low standby current (0.8 µA), and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification (-40°C to +125°C). It operates from a 1.8V analog supply (AVDD), supports 1.7V–5.5V digital I/O (DVIO), and accepts 2.5V–5.1V external reference (VREF), enabling high-precision data acquisition in battery-powered motor control and EV battery management systems.
For engineers reviewing the MCP33131-05T-E/MS datasheet, MCP33131-05T-E/MS pinout, MCP33131-05T-E/MS application, or MCP33131-05T-E/MS equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specifications, MSOP-10 package mapping, SPI-compatible timing constraints (up to 100 MHz SCLK), self-calibration behavior, and validated automotive-grade performance metrics including SNR (86.7 dBFS), SFDR (98.9 dBc), and ±2.2 LSB INL at 10 kHz input.
Technical Context
The MCP33131-05T-E/MS implements a SAR architecture with internal clock generation-decoupling conversion timing from SPI clock (SCLK)-and uses CNVST as both conversion trigger and chip select. Its pseudo-differential input supports single-ended operation with full-scale range of 0V to VREF, and features automatic power-up calibration plus on-demand recalibration via SPI command.
It achieves stable performance across temperature via offset/gain/linearity correction, maintains <1 µA standby current during input acquisition, and delivers no-latency output by presenting conversion results on SDO immediately after CNVST deassertion. The device's wide DVIO range eliminates level-shifting requirements when interfacing with PIC32 or other 1.7V–5.5V host controllers.
Key Specifications

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: AIN+ | Analog Input (non-inverting) | Single-ended analog input node; referenced to GND; full-scale range = 0V to VREF. |
| 2: AVDD | Analog Supply | 1.8V analog power rail; requires 1 µF ceramic decoupling capacitor for noise suppression. |
| 3: AIN− | Analog Input (inverting) | Internally connected to GND in single-ended mode; used for pseudo-differential configuration. |
| 4: SDI | SPI Data Input | Command/data input for recalibration and configuration; Schmitt-triggered for noise immunity. |

FAQ
What is the maximum SPI clock frequency supported by the MCP33131-05T-E/MS?
The MCP33131-05T-E/MS supports an SPI clock (SCLK) frequency up to 100 MHz, with timing constraints dependent on DVIO voltage: 10 ns period at DVIO ≥ 3.3V, 12 ns at ≥ 2.3V, and 16 ns at ≥ 1.7V. This allows high-speed data readout while maintaining compatibility with legacy and modern microcontrollers across voltage domains.
Does the MCP33131-05T-E/MS require an external reference voltage?
Yes, the MCP33131-05T-E/MS requires an external reference voltage (VREF) in the range of 2.5V to 5.1V. It does not include an internal reference; VREF directly defines the full-scale input range (0V to VREF) and critically impacts SNR, SFDR, and THD performance-verified in datasheet Figures 2-7 through 2-12.
How does the self-calibration function work in the MCP33131-05T-E/MS?
The MCP33131-05T-E/MS performs automatic self-calibration on power-up to correct offset, gain, and linearity errors. Users can also trigger recalibration on-demand via a dedicated SPI command requiring 1024 SCLK cycles. Calibration completes in 500–650 ms and restores accuracy after reference voltage changes or thermal drift-no external components or host software intervention needed.
Is the MCP33131-05T-E/MS pin-compatible with other members of the MCP331xx family?
Yes, the MCP33131-05T-E/MS shares identical pinout and package (MSOP-10) with all MCP331xx-05 and MCP331xx-10 variants-including MCP33121-05T-E/MS and MCP33111-05T-E/MS-enabling drop-in resolution upgrades without PCB redesign. All share the same CNVST-triggered SPI interface and terminal functions.
What is the typical power consumption of the MCP33131-05T-E/MS during conversion?
The MCP33131-05T-E/MS consumes 1.4 mA typical during conversion (at 500 kSPS, AVDD = 1.8V, DVIO = 3.3V, VREF = 5V), resulting in ~4.2 mW total power dissipation. During standby, it draws only 0.8 µA, reducing to ~2.6 µW-ideal for duty-cycled sensing in energy-constrained applications.
