Frequently Asked Questions
How many input channels does MCP3304-BI/SL provide, and can they be configured as differential inputs?
MCP3304-BI/SL provides 8 analog inputs configurable as 4 fully differential channel pairs or 8 single-ended/pseudo-differential inputs. The 13-bit resolution and differential mode are particularly valuable for rejecting common-mode noise in industrial measurement circuits where sensor signals share a reference ground with high-current loads.
What is the input voltage range of MCP3304-BI/SL, and can it digitize signals from bipolar sensors directly?
MCP3304-BI/SL accepts analog input voltages from -5 V to +5 V, enabling direct digitization of bipolar sensor outputs such as thermocouples with cold junction compensation, strain gauge bridges, or accelerometers without additional level-shifting circuitry. The maximum conversion time is 6.19 µs, supporting real-time acquisition from multiple sensor channels.
How does MCP3304-BI/SL interface with a microcontroller, and what SPI clock speeds are supported?
MCP3304-BI/SL uses an SPI-compatible 3-wire serial interface with chip select, data in (DIN), data out (DOUT), and clock (CLK) lines. It supports SPI clock frequencies up to 2.0 MHz at 5 V supply, allowing fast multi-channel sampling when connected to microcontrollers such as PIC, AVR, or ARM Cortex-M processors with hardware SPI peripherals.
Is MCP3304-BI/SL RoHS compliant, and what is the industrial temperature range for this variant?
Yes, MCP3304-BI/SL carries JESD-609 e3 (lead-free, RoHS-compliant) marking. The -BI suffix indicates the industrial temperature grade, with an operating range of -40°C to 85°C, qualifying it for outdoor monitoring systems, industrial process controllers, and ruggedized data loggers operating in harsh environments.
What is the typical procurement lead time for MCP3304-BI/SL, and is the MCP3208 a pin-compatible alternative?
MCP3304-BI/SL has a factory lead time of approximately 6 weeks. The MCP3208 is a closely related 12-bit ADC with 8 single-ended or 4 differential channels in the same 16-pin SOIC package, and it is largely pin-compatible. However, MCP3208 provides 12-bit resolution versus 13-bit for MCP3304, so buyers should evaluate whether the additional resolution is required before substituting.
