DESCRIPTION

ADC150 is a high performance programmable 24-

bit integrating A/D converter based on a patented

architecture. The integration time and resolution

along with the power line cycle selection can be

easily programmed through the Mode Control

Byte.

ADC150 offers 2 ppm max. linearity error and

1 ppm/°C max. scale factor error over the military temperature range. It also has excellent offset stability at

2 ppm max. which the user can auto zero if desired.

ADC150's compatibility with popular microcomputer buses increases its ease of application in smart

systems. An on-board microprocessor controls all internal functions of the ADC150. Thaler designers

have minimized external connections to greatly reduce the problem often encountered when applying

ADC's.

Operating from ±15VDC and a +5VDC power supply, ADC150 is packaged in a hermetically sealed 40-pin

ceramic DIP package. Precision test equipment, scientific and medical instruments, and data acquisition

systems are primary application areas for the unusually high resolution and accuracy of this ADC.
