What are the key features of MCP3204-CI/P?
- 12-bit resolution with 4 single-ended or 2 pseudo-differential input channels for flexible analog acquisition
- SPI-compatible serial interface operating at up to 1.8 MHz for easy microcontroller integration
- Single 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply operation with low standby current of 500 nA for power-sensitive designs
What is MCP3204-CI/P used for?
The MCP3204-CI/P is well suited for data acquisition systems requiring moderate resolution analog-to-digital conversion in battery-powered and portable equipment. It is used in industrial sensors, temperature monitoring systems, and embedded control applications where a compact DIP-14 footprint and SPI connectivity simplify PCB layout. Its 4-channel input and 12-bit accuracy make it a practical choice for multi-sensor scanning at up to 100 ksps.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum sampling rate of the MCP3204-CI/P and how does supply voltage affect it?
The MCP3204-CI/P achieves up to 100 ksps at a 5 V supply and up to 50 ksps at 2.7 V. The conversion time maximum is 6 µs at full speed, making it adequate for most low-to-mid-speed sensor acquisition tasks.
Which microcontroller interfaces are compatible with the MCP3204-CI/P SPI port?
The MCP3204-CI/P uses a standard 4-wire SPI interface (CS, CLK, DIN, DOUT) compatible with virtually all microcontrollers including PIC, AVR, STM32, and Arduino families operating at 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Clock frequencies up to 1.8 MHz at 2.7 V and 3.2 MHz at 5 V are supported.
How does the MCP3204-CI/P perform in a 4-channel differential measurement application?
Each pair of the 4 inputs can be configured as a pseudo-differential pair, providing 2 differential channels with 12-bit resolution and up to ±1 LSB DNL. This enables common-mode noise rejection of up to 60 dB, useful in noisy industrial environments where ground potential differences between sensors are a concern.
When would MCP3204-CI/P be preferred over the MCP3208 in a new design?
The MCP3204-CI/P offers 4 input channels versus 8 channels on the MCP3208, making it the better choice when board space or pin count is limited and fewer than 5 analog inputs suffice. The DIP-14 package also suits breadboard prototyping and through-hole production runs where SMD assembly is not available.
