ADS126xEVM Hardware
2.6
Analog Inputs
The ADS126x has a total of 11 analog input pin: AIN0 through AIN9 plus a common reference input,
AINCOM. This design allows the ADS126x to be configured for up to five differential input pairs, ten
single-ended inputs referenced to a common voltage, or a combination of single-ended and differential
inputs. The flexible input multiplexer of the ADS126x allows any two inputs to be selected for either the
positive or negative ADC input.
When measuring single-ended input signals, any input pin may be used as a common voltage reference.
However, AINCOM is specially designated to serve this purpose because it provides a bias voltage (level-
shift function) for floating sensors to meet the common-mode voltage requirements of the ADS126x inputs.
All of the analog inputs to the ADC are pinned out on the ADS126xEVM. The supporting circuitry provides
filtering and ratiometric connections for a variety of sensors. Additionally, a separate terminal block (J4) is
provided for thermocouple inputs.
shows the schematic of the ADS126xEVM analog input
circuitry.
