The MCP3901 ADC Evaluation Board for 16-Bit MCUs system provides the ability to evaluate the performance of the MCP3901 dual channel ADC. It also provides a development platform for 16-bit PIC based applications, using existing 100-pin PIM systems. The system comes with programmed dsPIC33FJ256GP710 PIM modules that communicate with the LabVIEW™ software GUI for data exchange and ADC setup.

The MCP3901 device is an ADC with a second order modulator and a third order sync filter. This Delta-Sigma A/D converter has an adjustable oversampling ratio. The CLKIN pin of the MCP3901 is the oversampling clock (MCLK) input. The MCP3901 ADC Evaluation Board for 16-Bit MCUs offers two different options for the MCP3901 master clock (MCLK).

  • Using the Crystal X2
  • Driving the Clock with the PIM Module

Features

  • Dual ADC MCP3901 output display using Serial communication to PC Software Interface
