Overview
Analog Devices ADuCM36x Microcontrollers (MCUs) provide a fully integrated, 3.9kSPS, 24-bit data acquisition system. The ADuCM360/ADuCM361 MCUs incorporate high-performance sigma-delta (Σ-Δ) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), a 32-bit ARM Cortex™-M3 processor, 128kB Flash/EE memory, and 8kB SRAM on a single chip. ADuCM36x also includes an on-chip 32kHz oscillator and an internal 16MHz high-frequency oscillator. The ADuCM361 has only one 24-bit Σ-Δ ADC (ADC1). The ADuCM360 includes dual 24-bit Σ-Δ ADC (ADC0 and ADC1). All other features are the same. The ADuCM360 directly interfaces with external precision sensors in wired and battery-powered applications. Low-Power Operation Designers can configure the microcontroller in a normal operating mode that consumes 290μA/MHz (including flash/SRAM IDD). The normal operating mode results in an overall system current consumption of 1mA when all peripherals are active. With its low-power operation, the ADuCM36x MCUs are ideally suited to operate in battery-powered applications where low power operation is critical.
