serial I/O successive approximation A/D converter. It uses
12-bit unipolar A/D conversion. The input multiplexer can
puts. An on-chip sample-and-hold is included on the 鈥?鈥?/div>
input. When the LTC1291 is idle, it can be powered down
in applications where low power consumption is desired.
An external reference is not required because the LTC1291
takes its reference from the power supply (V
CC
). All these
features are packaged in an 8-pin DIP.
The serial I/O is designed to communicate without external
hardware to most MPU serial ports and all MPU parallel
I/O ports allowing data to be transmitted over three or four
wires. Given the accuracy, ease of use and small package
size, this device is well suited for digitizing analog signals
in remote applications where minimum number of inter-
connects, small physical size, and low power consump-
tion are important.
