The ISL26102 and ISL26104 are designed to provide optimal measurement accuracy over a wide range of conversion rates with a minimum of external components.
Available with an on chip, ultra low noise programmable gain amplifier, the devices have a wide PGA gain range, which the company says facilitates direct connection to load cells, thermocouples and other popular sensors with a variety of sensitivities.
In addition, the converters are said to feature 'best in class' noise performance through their entire output word rate range from 2.5 to 4,000SPS, delivering superior system flexibility.
The ISL26102 and ISL26104 provide two channel and four channel input multiplexers, respectively, and are designed for instrumentation such as weighing systems and temperature monitoring and control.
Intersil claims they provide designers with the ability to digitise, with unmatched accuracy, small signals from low cost sensors, without the added cost and complexity of external amplifiers and signal conditioning circuits.
