MAX1402CAI+ (MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS)

The MAX1402CAI+ from Maxim Integrated Products is a 5V, 18bit, low power, multichannel, oversampling (sigma-delta) ADC in 28 pin SSOP package. This ADC features matched 200µA current sources for sensor excitation and uses a sigma-delta modulator with a digital decimation filter to achieve 16bit accuracy. The digital filter's user selectable decimation factor allows the conversion resolution to be reduced in exchange for a higher output data rate. True 16bit performance is achieved at an output data rate of up to 480sps. In addition, the modulator sampling frequency may be optimized for either lowest power dissipation or highest throughput rate. This device offers three fully differential input channels that may be independently programmed with a gain between +1V/V and +128V/V. This device is used in portable industrial instruments, portable weigh scales, loop-powered systems and pressure transducers.
