ADM00523 - 

The MCP3914 ADC Evaluation Board for 16-Bit MCUs system provides the opportunity to evaluate the performance of the MCP3914 eight-channel AFE. It also provides a development platform for 16-bit PIC? based applications, using existing 100-pin PIC microcontroller Plug-in Module (PIM) systems that are compatible with the Explorer 16 and other high pin count PIC? based demo boards. The system comes with a programmed PIC24FJ256GA110 PIM module that communicates with the Energy Management Utility software for data exchange and ADC setup via a USB connection to the board.

Features:

Eight-channel ADC MCP3914 output display using serial communication to the PC software interface

Simultaneous 57 ksps at OSR32 address loop ALL or 95 dB SINAD at OSR512 performance on MCP3914

System and ADC performance analysis through graphical PC software showing noise histogram, frequency domain (FFT), time domain scope plot, and statistical numerical analysis

Robust hardware design with analog grounding and analog/digital separation, allowing low noise evaluation of the MCP3914 device; includes separate power supplies and power planes on a 4-layer board

PICtail™ Plus connectors for Explorer 16 daughter board compatibility
