ADS1231IDR

Texas Instruments · Analog To Digital Converters (ADC) · SOIC-16

ADS1231IDR from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-16. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 DVDD power_in Digital power supply. 3 V to 5.3 V. Decouple to GND close to the pin.
2 GND power_in Ground for digital and analog supplies (shared with pin 11).
3 CLKIN input External clock input, typically 4.9152 MHz (1-6 MHz). Tie low to activate the internal oscillator.
4 SPEED input Data-rate select input. Logic 0 selects 10 SPS; logic 1 selects 80 SPS.
5 CAP passive Gain-amplifier bypass capacitor connection. Connect an external bypass capacitor between the two CAP pins (pins 5 and 6).
6 CAP passive Gain-amplifier bypass capacitor connection. Second terminal of the PGA bypass capacitor.
7 AINP input Positive analog input to the PGA/ADC. Common-mode range GND+1.5 V to AVDD-1.5 V; full-scale differential input +/-0.5*VREF/128.
8 AINN input Negative analog input to the PGA/ADC. Paired with AINP as the bridge-sensor differential input.
9 VREFN input Negative voltage reference input. Range GND-0.1 V to VREFP-1.5 V.
10 VREFP input Positive voltage reference input. Range VREFN+1.5 V to AVDD+0.1 V (external reference up to 5 V for ratiometric measurements).
11 GND power_in Ground for digital and analog supplies (shared with pin 2).
12 SW output Low-side power switch for the bridge sensor. Ron typ 3.5 ohm at AVDD=5V; max continuous switch current 30 mA.
13 AVDD power_in Analog power supply. 3 V to 5.3 V. Decouple to GND close to the pin.
14 PDWN input Power-down (active-low). Holding this pin low powers down the entire converter and resets the ADC.
15 SCLK input Serial clock: clocks out data on the rising edge. Also used to initiate Standby mode. Max 5 MHz.
16 DRDY/DOUT output Dual-purpose output. Data ready: indicates valid data by going low. Data output: outputs data MSB-first on the first rising edge of SCLK.
