Data acquisition is used to acquire analog data from the external environment and to communicate the data that has been collected to any digital processor for further data analysis or statistical processing. Analog front end (AFE) provides a set of techniques for the acquisition, conversion and transfer of analog signals to the digital format for further processing. In this article, the focus is on WM8253SCDS/V, a Data Acquisition - Analog Front End (AFE) integrated circuit (IC) from the Texas Instruments (TI) family. It supports features such as data format conversions and signal conditioning functions, allowing it to perform the necessary analog to digital conversion.

Overview

The WM8253SCDS/V IC is a 10-bit, three-channel multiplexed Analog Front-end (AFE) specifically designed to convert the analog signals, such as sound signals, temperature, voltage, current and pressure, into digital signals. This IC is specifically designed to be used in automotive applications and is highly robust, with a tolerance range of -40 to +125 degrees Celsius, and can be powered with a single voltage supply which provides power saving benefits.

WM8253SCDS/V uses pipeline analog-to-digital conversion techniques, which allow higher performance and better signal-to-noise ratio than earlier analog-to-digital conversion techniques. The device features an on-chip reference voltage, clock generator and a power-down feature to reduce power consumption.

Signal Processing Features

WM8253SCDS/V offers a wide range of signal processing features, including adjustable gain and resolution, a user-programmable digital filter and also a wide dynamic range. The user-programmable digital filter is a notch filter which eliminates noise that could cause incorrect analog readings. The wide dynamic range ensures that readings are accurate even in low-light environments, while the adjustable gain allows higher resolution and more accurate readings. With the adjustable gain feature, users can adjust the sensitivity of the device in order to improve the accuracy of the analog measurements.

The device also features two low-noise, high-accuracy low-pass filters for flanking off unwanted high-frequency noise which might distort readings. The low-pass filters are capable of producing a flat frequency response up to 10kHz and can be switched on and off in order to save power.

Communication and Interface

WM8253SCDS/V is connected to the microprocessor or other digital device using an asynchronous serial communication interface. The device is also equipped with a high-speed clock generator which allows high-speed data transfer. The clock generator also provides a flexible clock divider circuit which can be used to reduce the clock frequency in order to reduce power consumption.

The device also provides various analog inputs which can be connected to various sensor types, including thermocouples, resistance temperature detectors, strain gauges and thermistors. The sample rate of the device can be adjusted from 0.0625kHz to 8kHz, depending on the bandwidth of the signal.

Power Consumption

WM8253SCDS/V has a very low power consumption, which is typically 0.3 mW when operating from a 1.2 V supply. It also provides a power-down feature which allows the device to be turned off when it is not being used. This feature can be used in combination with the clock generator to reduce power consumption significantly. The low power consumption of the device makes it suitable for battery-powered applications, such as those found in the automotive industry.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the WM8253SCDS/V is a powerful, low-power Data Acquisition – Analog Front End (AFE) device which offers a wide range of features, such as adjustable gain and resolution, a user-programmable digital filter, and a wide dynamic range. The device can be connected to a variety of sensor types and its power consumption is very low, making it suitable for battery-powered applications. The wide range of features make it an ideal solution for automotive applications, where the device can be used for analog-to-digital conversion, signal conditioning, and data communication.
