Introduction
High input impedance and a wide input range are two highly desirable features in a precision analog-to-digital converter, and the LTC2449 delta-sigma ADC has both. With just a few external components, the LTC2449 forms an exceptional measurement system with very high input impedance and an input range that extends 300mV beyond the supply rails.
A designer may trade off the LTC2449’s 200 nV resolution for faster conversion rates, but otherwise the LTC2449 ...
