Integrated Device Technology Low-Power, High-Resolution 16-Bit Sensor Signal Conditioner ZSSC3027AC7B

The ZSSC3027 is a sensor signal conditioner ( SSC ) integrated circuit for high-accuracy amplification and analog-to-digital conversion of a differential input signal. Designed for high-resolution altimeter module applications, the ZSSC3027 can perform offset, span, and 1st and 2nd order temperature compensation of the measured signal. Developed for correction of resistive bridge sensors, it can also provide a corrected temperature output measured with an internal sensor. The measured and corrected bridge values are provided at the digital output pins, which can be configured as either I2C (≤ 3.4MHz) or SPI (≤ 20MHz). Digital compensation of signal offset, sensitivity, temperature, and non-linearity is accomplished via an 18-bit internal digital signal processor ( DSP ) running a correction algorithm. Calibration coefficients are stored on-chip in a highly reliable, non-volatile, multiple-time programmable ( MTP ) memory. Programming the ZSSC3027 is simple via the serial interface. The IC -internal charge pump provides the MTP programming voltage. The interface is used for the PC -controlled calibration procedure, which programs the set of calibration coefficients in memory. The ZSSC3027 provides accelerated signal processing in order to support high-speed control, safety, and real-time sensing applications. It complements IDT 's ZSSC30x6 products.
