ADC TRANSFER FUNCTION
Single-Ended Mode
In single-ended mode, the input range is 0 to V
1 LSB = FS/65,536; or,
V
/65,536 = 2.51 V/65,536 = 38.30 μV
REF
The data values in ADCDATx are aligned such that the MSB is in ADCDATx[27] and, therefore, the LSB is in ADCDATx[12]. The ideal
code transitions occur midway between successive integer LSB values (that is, 1/2 LSB, 3/2 LSB, 5/2 LSB, ..., FS − 3/2 LSB). The ideal
input/output transfer characteristic is shown in Figure 6.
Differential Mode
The amplitude of the differential signal is the difference between the signals applied to the AIN+ and AIN− pins (that is, AIN+ − AIN−).
The maximum amplitude of the differential signal is, therefore, −V
(CM). The common mode is the average of the two signals (AIN+ + AIN−)/2 and is, therefore, the voltage that the two inputs are
centered on. This results in the span of each input being CM ± V
V
. The voltage at the AIN+ and AIN− pins must be within the allowed input voltage range.
REF
The output coding is twos complement in fully differential mode, with
1 LSB = 2 × V
/65,536; or,
REF
2 × 2.51 V/65,536 = 76.60 μV
where V
= 2.51 V.
REF
The data values in ADCDATx are aligned such that the MSB is in ADCDATx[27] and, therefore, the LSB is in ADCDATx[13]. The ideal
input/output transfer characteristic is shown in Figure 7.
. The output coding is straight binary with
