The LTC2493 is a 4-channel (2-channel differential), 24-bit, No Latency ΔΣ^™ ADC with Easy Drive technology and a 2-wire, I²C interface. The patented sampling scheme eliminates dynamic input current errors and the shortcomings of on-chip buffering through automatic cancellation of differential input current. This allows large external source impedances and rail-to-rail input signals to be directly digitized while maintaining exceptional DC accuracy.

The LTC2493 includes a high accuracy temperature sensor and an integrated oscillator. This device can be configured to measure an external signal (from combinations of 4 analog input channels operating in single- ended or differential modes) or its internal temperature sensor. The integrated temperature sensor offers 1/30th°C resolution and 2°C absolute accuracy.

The LTC2493 allows a wide common mode input range (0V to V_CC), independent of the reference voltage. Any combination of single-ended or differential inputs can be selected and the first conversion, after a new channel is selected, is valid. Access to the multiplexer output enables optional external amplifiers to be shared between all analog inputs and auto-calibration continuously removes their associated offset and drift.
