Description
The MCP3903 is a six-channel Analog Front End (AFE)
containing three pairs made out of two synchronous
sampling Delta-Sigma Analog-to-Digital Converters
(ADC) with PGA, a phase delay compensation block,
internal voltage reference, and high-speed 10 MHz SPI
compatible serial interface. The converters contain a
proprietary dithering algorithm for reduced idle tones
and improved THD.
The internal register map contains 24-bit wide ADC
data words, a modulator output register as well as six
24-bit writable control registers to program gain,
over-sampling ratio, phase, resolution, dithering,
shut-down, reset and several communication features.
The communication is largely simplified with various
Continuous Read modes that can be accessed by the
Direct Memory Access (DMA) of an MCU and with
separate Data Ready pins that can directly be
connected to the Interrupt Request (IRQ) input of an
MCU. The MCP3903 is capable of interfacing to a large
variety of voltage and current sensors including shunts,
current transformers, Rogowski coils, and Hall-effect
sensors.
