MCP3901EV-MCU16

The MCP3901EV-MCU16 is a MCP3901 ADC evaluation board for 16bit MCUs system provides the ability to evaluate the performance of the MCP3901 dual channel analog front end (AFE) containing two synchronous sampling delta sigma analog to digital converters (ADC), two PGAs, phase delay compensation block internal voltage reference, modulator output block, and high speed 20MHz SPI compatible serial interface. The converters contain a proprietary dithering algorithm for reduced Idle tones and improved THD. It also provides a development platform for 16bit PIC MCU based applications, using existing 100 pin plug-in module systems compatible with the explorer 16 and other high pin count PIC MCU demo boards. The system comes with programmed dsPIC33FJ256GP710 PIM modules that communicate with the LabVIEW software GUI for data exchange and ADC setup.

• Dual ADC MCP3901 output display using serial communication to PC software interface
• Simultaneous 4ksps at 90dB SINAD and top speed 55ksps performance on dual MCP3901 channels
• Robust hardware design with analog grounding and analog/digital separation
• PICtail Plus connectors for explorer 16 daughter board compatibility
• Separate power supplies and power planes with four layer board
• System and ADC performance analysis through graphical PC tools
