8.3.4 Modulator and Internal Oscillator

A ΔΣ modulator is used in the ADS122C04 to convert the analog input voltage into a pulse code modulated (PCM) data stream. The modulator runs at a modulator clock frequency of fMOD = fCLK / 4, where fCLK is provided by the internal oscillator. The oscillator frequency, and therefore also the modulator frequency, depend on the selected operating mode. Table 11 shows the oscillator and modulator frequencies for the different operating modes.

Table 11. Oscillator and Modulator Clock Frequencies for Different Operating Modes

OPERATING MODE fCLK fMOD
Normal mode 1.024 MHz 256 kHz
Turbo mode 2.048 MHz 512 kHz
