ADS131A02/04 Analog Front-End

TI offers its ADS131A02/04 two- or four-channel, analog front-end for power monitoring, control, and protection

Image of Texas Instruments' ADS131A02/04 Analog Front-EndTexas Instruments' ADS131A02/04 is a two- or four-channel, simultaneous-sampling, 24-bit, delta-sigma (ΔΣ) analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The wide dynamic range, scalable data rates, and internal fault monitors make the ADS131A02/04 ideally suited for energy monitoring, protection, and control applications.

The ADC inputs can be independently and directly interfaced to a resistor-divider network, a transformer (to measure voltage or current), or a Rogowski coil (to measure current). Flexible power-supply options, including an internal negative-charge pump, are available to maximize the effective number of bits (ENOB) for high dynamic range applications.

Asynchronous and synchronous master and slave interface options are available, providing ADC configuration flexibility when chaining multiple devices in a single system. Several interface checks, ADC startup checks, and data integrity checks can be enabled on the interface to report errors in the ADC and during data transfer.

The ADS131A02/04 supports data rates up to 128 kSPS. The complete analog front-end (AFE) solution is packaged in a 32-pin TQFP package and is specified over the industrial temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.
