MCP3425A1T-E

Microchip Tech · Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) · SOT-23-6

MCP3425A1T-E from Microchip Tech, in a SOT-23-6. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VIN+ power_in Positive differential analog input; the differential input (VIN+ - VIN-) should not exceed VREF/PGA (2.048 V/PGA) for accurate measurement, and the absolute voltage on this pin must stay between VSS-0.3 V and VDD+0.3 V.
2 VSS power_in Ground pin and current return path of the device, to be connected to a ground plane through a low-impedance connection.
3 SCL input I2C serial clock input accepting only external clocks from the master (device is slave only); it is an open-drain N-channel driver and needs a pull-up resistor from VDD.
4 SDA bidirectional I2C serial data pin used for conversion result read-out and configuration bit writes; it is an open-drain N-channel driver and needs a pull-up resistor from VDD, and must be stable while SCL is high.
5 VDD power_in Positive supply pin; the supply must be maintained in the 2.7 V to 5.5 V range for specified operation, with a ~0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor (plus 10 µF tantalum recommended) to ground.
6 VIN- power_in Negative differential analog input; the absolute voltage on this pin must stay between VSS-0.3 V and VDD+0.3 V, and the common mode must keep both pins within the specified operating range.
