Texas Instruments ADS131M02/ADS131M02-Q1 Delta-Sigma ADC

Texas Instruments ADS131M02/ADS131M02-Q1 Delta-Sigma Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) is a two-channel, simultaneously-sampling, 24-bit, delta-sigma (ΔΣ) ADC that offers wide dynamic range and low power. It also offers energy-measurement-specific features, making the device an excellent fit for energy metering, power metrology, and circuit breaker applications. The ADC inputs can be directly interfaced to a resistor-divider network or a power transformer to measure voltage or to a current transformer, shunt, or a Rogowski coil to measure current.

The individual ADC channels can be independently configured depending on the sensor input. A low-noise, programmable gain amplifier (PGA) provides gains ranging from 1 to 128 to amplify low-level signals. Additionally, this device integrates channel-to-channel phase calibration and offset and gain calibration registers to help remove signal-chain errors.

A low-drift, 1.2V reference is integrated into the Texas Instruments ADS131M02/ADS131M02-Q1 reducing printed circuit board (PCB) area. Cyclic redundancy check (CRC) options can be individually enabled on the data input, data output, and register map to ensure communication integrity. The complete analog front-end (AFE) is offered in a 20-pin TSSOP or leadless 20-pin WQFN package and is specified over the industrial temperature range of –40°C to +125°C. The ADS131M02-Q1 devices are AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications.
