16-Bit Analog-to-Digital Converters for Temperature Sensors
Check for Samples: ADS1146,ADS1147,ADS1148
1FEATURES DESCRIPTION
The ADS1146, ADS1147, and ADS1148 are highly-
23 16 Bits, No Missing Codes integrated, precision, 16-bit analog-to-digital
Data Output Rates Up to 2kSPS converters (ADCs). The ADS1146/7/8 feature an
Single-Cycle Settling for All Data Rates onboard, low-noise, programmable gain amplifier
(PGA), a precision delta-sigma ADC with a single-
Simultaneous 50/60Hz Rejection at 20SPS cycle settling digital filter, and an internal oscillator.
4 Differential/7 Single-Ended Inputs (ADS1148) The ADS1147 and ADS1148 also provide a built-in
2 Differential/3 Single-Ended Inputs (ADS1147) voltage reference with 10mA output capacity, and two
matched programmable current digital-to-analog
Matched Current Source DACs converters (DACs). The ADS1146/7/8 provide a
Internal Voltage Reference complete front-end solution for temperature sensor
Sensor Burnout Detection applications including thermal couples, thermistors,
and resistance temperature detectors (RTDs).
4/8 General-Purpose I/Os (ADS1147/8)
Internal Temperature Sensor An input multiplexer supports four differential inputs
for the ADS1148, two for the ADS1147, and one for
Power Supply and VREF Monitoring the ADS1146. In addition, the multiplexer has a
(ADS1147/8) sensor burnout detect, voltage bias for
Self and System Calibration thermocouples, system monitoring, and general-
SPI™-Compatible Serial Interface purpose digital I/Os (ADS1147 and ADS1148). The
onboard, low-noise PGA provides selectable gains of
Analog Supply Operation: 1 to 128. The delta-sigma modulator and adjustable
+2.7V to +5.25V Unipolar, ±2.5V Bipolar digital filter settle in only one cycle, for fast channel
Digital Supply: +2.7V to +5.25V cycling when using the input multiplexer, and support
Operating Temperature –40°C to +125°C data rates up to 2kSPS. For data rates of 20SPS or
less, both 50Hz and 60Hz interference are rejected
by the filter.
APPLICATIONS

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

NOISE PERFORMANCE
The ADS1146/7/8 noise performance can be optimized by adjusting the data rate and PGA setting. As the
averaging is increased by reducing the data rate, the noise drops correspondingly. Increasing the PGA value
reduces the input-referred noise, particularly useful when measuring low-level signals. Table 1 and Table 2
summarize noise performance of the ADS1146/7/8. The data are representative of typical noise performance at
T = +25°C. The data shown are the result of averaging the readings from multiple devices and were measured
with the inputs shorted together.
Table 1 lists the input-referred noise in units μVPP. In many of the settings, especially at lower data rates, the
inherent device noise is less than 1LSB. For these cases, the noise is rounded up to 1LSB. Table 2 lists the
corresponding data in units of ENOB (effective number of bits) where:
ENOB = ln(Full-Scale Range/Noise)/ln(2) (1)

Settling Time for Channel Multiplexing
The ADS1146/7/8 is a true single-cycle settling ΔΣ
converter. The first data available after the start of a
conversion are fully settled and valid for use. The
time required to settle is roughly equal to the inverse
of the data rate. The exact time depends on the
specific data rate and the operation that resulted in
the start of a conversion; see Table 12 for specific
values.
ANALOG INPUT IMPEDANCE
The ADS1146/7/8 inputs are buffered through a high-
impedance PGA before they reach the ΔΣ modulator.
For the majority of applications, the input current
leakage is minimal and can be neglected. However,
because the PGA is chopper-stabilized for noise and Figure 20. Reference Input Multiplexer

LOW-NOISE PGA
The ADS1146/7/8 feature a low-drift, low-noise, high (4)
input impedance programmable gain amplifier (PGA).
The PGA can be set to gain of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, MODULATOR
or 128 by register SYS0. A simplified diagram of the
PGA is shown in Figure 21.A third-order modulator is used in the ADS1146/7/8.
The modulator converts the analog input voltage into
a pulse code modulated (PCM) data stream. To save
power, the modulator clock runs from 32kHz up to
512kHz for different data rates, as shown in Table 4.
DIGITAL FILTER
The ADS1146/7/8 use linear-phase finite impulse
response (FIR) digital filters that can be adjusted for
different output data rates. The digital filter always
settles in a single cycle.
Table 5 shows the exact data rates when an external
oscillator equal to 4.096MHz is used. Also shown is
the signal –3dB bandwidth, and the 50Hz and 60Hz
attenuation. For good 50Hz or 60Hz rejection, use a
data rate of 20SPS or slower.
The frequency responses of the digital filter are

The ADS1146/7/8 can use either the internal
oscillator or an external clock. Connect the CLK pin to
DGND before power-on or reset to activate the
internal oscillator. Connecting an external clock to the
CLK pin at any time deactivates the internal oscillator,
with the device then operating on the external clock.
After the device switches to the external clock, it
cannot be switched back to the internal oscillator
without cycling the power supplies or resetting the

SYSTEM CONTROL COMMANDS
WAKEUP—Wake up from sleep mode that is set by the SLEEP command.
Use this command to awaken the device from sleep mode. After execution of the WAKEUP command, the
device wakes up on the rising edge of the eighth SCLK.
SLEEP—Set the device to sleep mode; issue the WAKEUP command to deactivate SLEEP mode.
This command places the part into a sleep (power-saving) mode. When the SLEEP command is issued, the
device completes the current conversion and then goes into sleep mode. Note that this command does not
automatically power-down the internal voltage reference; see the VREFCON bits in the MUX1 register for
each device for further details.
To exit sleep mode, issue the WAKEUP command. Single conversions can be performed by issuing a
WAKEUP command followed by a SLEEP command.
Both WAKEUP and SLEEP are the software command equivalents of using the START pin to control the device.
Figure 41. SLEEP and WAKEUP Commands Operation
SYNC—Synchronize DRDY.
This command resets the ADC digital filter and starts a new conversion. The DRDY pin from multiple devices
connected to the same SPI bus can be synchronized by issuing a SYNC command to all of devices
simultaneously.
Figure 42. SYNC Command Operation
RESET—Reset the device to power-up state.
This command restores the registers to the respective power-up values. This command also resets the digital
filter. RESET is the command equivalent of using the RESET pin to reset the device. However, the RESET
command does not reset the SPI interface. If the RESET command is issued when the SPI interface is in the
wrong state, the device will not reset. The CS pin can be used to reset SPI interface first, and then a RESET
command can be issued to reset the device. The RESET command holds the registers and the decimation
filter in a reset state for 0.6ms when the system clock frequency is 4.096MHz, similar to the hardware reset.
Therefore, SPI communication can be only be started 0.6ms after the RESET command is issued, as shown
in Figure 43.

DATA RETRIEVAL COMMANDS
RDATAC—Read data continuously.
The RDATAC command enables the automatic loading of a new conversion result into the output data
register. In this mode, the conversion result can be received once from the device after the DRDY signal
goes low by sending 16 SCLKs. It is not necessary to read back all the bits, as long as the number of bits
read out is a multiple of eight. The RDATAC command must be issued after DRDY goes low, and the
command takes effect on the next DRDY.
Be sure to complete data retrieval (conversion result or register read-back) before DRDY goes low, or the
resulting data will be corrupt. Successful register read operations in RDATAC mode require the knowledge of
when the next DRDY falling edge will occur.
Figure 44. Read Data Continuously
SDATAC—Stop reading data continuously.
The SDATAC command terminates the RDATAC mode. Afterwards, the conversion result is not
automatically loaded into the output shift register when DRDY goes low, and register read operations can be
performed without interruption from new conversion results being loaded into the output shift register. Use
the RDATA command to retrieve conversion data. The SDATAC command takes effect after the next DRDY.

RDATA—Read data once.
The RDATA command loads the most recent conversion result into the output register. After issuing this
command, the conversion result can be read out by sending 16 SCLKs, as shown in Figure 46. This
command also works in RDATAC mode.
When performing multiple reads of the conversion result, the RDATA command can be sent when the last
eight bits of the conversion result are being shifted out during the course of the first read operation by taking
advantage of the duplex communication nature of the SPI interface, as shown in Figure 47.

USER REGISTER READ AND WRITE COMMANDS
RREG—Read from registers.
This command outputs the data from up to 16 registers, starting with the register address specified as part of
the instruction. The number of registers read is one plus the second byte. If the count exceeds the remaining
registers, the addresses wrap back to the beginning.
1st Command Byte: 0010 rrrr, where rrrr is the address of the first register to read.
2nd Command Byte: 0000 nnnn, where nnnn is the number of bytes to read –1.
It is not possible to use the full-duplex nature of the SPI interface when reading out the register data. For
example, a SYNC command cannot be issued when reading out the VBIAS and MUX1 data, as shown in
Figure 48. Any command sent during the readout of the register data is ignored. Thus, it is advisable to send
NOP through the DIN when reading out the register data.
Figure 48. Read from Register
WREG—Write to registers.
This command writes to the registers, starting with the register specified as part of the instruction. The
number of registers that are written is one plus the value of the second byte.
1st Command Byte: 0100 rrrr, where rrrr is the address of the first register to be written.
2nd Command Byte: 0000 nnnn, where nnnn is the number of bytes to be written 1.
Data Byte(s): data to be written to the registers.

CALIBRATION COMMANDS
The ADS1146/7/8 provide system and offset calibration commands and a system gain calibration command.
SYSOCAL—Offset system calibration.
This command initiates a system offset calibration. For a system offset calibration, the input should be
externally set to zero. The OFC register is updated when this operation completes.
SYSGCAL—System gain calibration.
This command initiates the system gain calibration. For a system gain calibration, the input should be set to
full-scale. The FSC register is updated after this operation.
SELFOCAL—Self offset calibration.
This command initiates a self-calibration for offset. The device internally shorts the inputs and performs the
calibration. The OFC register is updated after this operation.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46C and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48B. Buyers should
obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All
semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time
of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components which meet ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. Components which
have not been so designated are neither designed nor intended for automotive use; and TI will not be responsible for any failure of such
components to meet such requirements.
