DESCRIPTION
The ADS1232 and ADS1234 are precision
analog-to-digital (A/D) converters featuring true 23.5
effective-bit performance and exceptional ease of
use. Selectable gains of 1, 2, 64, or 128 allow
full-scale differential input ranges of
±2.5V
to
±19.5mV
with a +5V reference. While the ADS1232
offers a two-channel differential input and a built-in
temperature sensor, the ADS1234 features a
four-channel differential input multiplexer. A very
low-noise Gain-Amp features low differential input
current
to
minimize
errors
when
using
high-impedance transducers. An on-board oscillator
is provided for excellent 50Hz and 60Hz rejection
without an external clock source. The devices also
feature a low current driver to accommodate an
external crystal; they also accept external clock
sources for all applications.
All of the features of the ADS1232/ADS1234 are
hard-wire selected, without software programming.
Data is accessed over a simple serial interface
compatible with popular microcontrollers such as the
MSP430. The ADS1232 is available in the 24-pin
TSSOP package, and the ADS1234 is available in
the 28-pin TSSOP.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated
circuits be handled with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation
procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision
integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could
cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

Offset calibration can minimize these errors to the level of noise at any temperature.
Gain errors are calibrated at the factory (AVDD = +5V, all gains, T
A
= +25°C).
Specification is assured by the combination of design and final production test.
