ADS1251: Power supply problem for ADS1251

Part Number: ADS1251
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS1254

Hello!
ADS1251 was used for data collection
Now the MCU power supply USES 3.3v. In order to avoid the problem of level matching, I want to use 3.3v power supply for ADS1251. Is that ok?
thank you!

  • Hi Wang Jingang,

    The ADS1251 only operates off of a single 5V supply and the digital interface is also 5V logic. You'd need to use a level-shifter to interface with a 3.3V MCU.

    You might consider the ADS1254 instead... It allows for a second digital supply source and can interface with 3.3V logic. It also has a built-in multiplexer and allows for four differential inputs.

    Best regards,
    Chris
  • I understand. Thank you.
