The MCP3201 is a 12-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter with on-board sample and hold circuitry.
It features a single pseudo-differential input, ±1 LSB max DNL, and ±1 LSB max INL (MCP3201-B) or ±2 LSB max INL (MCP3201-C).
It has a SPI serial interface, operates on a single supply of 2.7V - 5.5V, and has a maximum sampling rate of 100 ksps at VDD = 5V or 50 ksps at VDD = 2.7V.
The device has low power consumption, with a typical standby current of 500 nA and a maximum active current of 400 µA at 5V.
It is designed for applications such as sensor interface, process control, data acquisition, and battery-operated systems.
The MCP3201 is available in 8-pin MSOP, PDIP, SOIC, and TSSOP packages.
The device also has various electrical characteristics and performance characteristics, including integral nonlinearity (INL) and differential nonlinearity (DNL) vs.
sample rate, temperature, and VREF.
