LMP90100 Noise Free bits

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LMP90100

I was trying to find out the LMP90100 Noise free bits. 

From the histogram in the datasheet(page 16), the histogram width is 60uV

The FS Voltage is 3V. So for a 24Bit ADC, it takes about 8 bits to make ~60uV. So the Noise Free bits is 16?

  • Hi Hithesh,

    the noise free resolution of LMP90100 depends on the gain, data rate, and reference voltage setting. Tables 1, 2 and 4 in the datasheet provide noise numbers for the different configurations.

    Your calculations seem to be correct as well. Unfortunately it is not stated at which data rate the histograms were taken:
    LSB size = 2x VREF / (2^24 x Gain) = 2x 3V / (2^24 x 1) = 358nV
    60uV/358nV = 168 codes
    log(168)/log(2) = 7.4 bits of peak-peak noise

    Regards,
