ADuCM355 external RTIA connection.

Category: Datasheet/Specs
Product Number: ADUCM355

Hi Team,

I'm planning to use the ADuCM355 and perform measurements using the 4-wire impedance method.
My electrode configuration will be:

  • CE0 for HSDAC output

  • AIN1 for HSTIA input

  • AIN2 and AIN3 for voltage measurement

When using the internal RTIA, I just need to close the T2 switch (AIN1) and T9 switch, while keeping T10 and T11 open.

However, if I use an external RTIA, I understand that I need to use AIN1 and DE0 as part of the HSTIA feedback loop.
So, as far as I understand:

  • Close T2 and T9 switches, and set HSRTIACON[3:0] = 0xF (to disable internal RTIA).

  • Connect the external RTIA between AIN1 and DE0.

  • To complete the feedback loop, set DE0RESCON = 0x97, which shorts both Rload3 and RTIA2_03.

  • Then, the feedback loop should be formed as expected.



However, in the ADuCM355 Hardware Reference Manual, it states to close T1 (AIN0) and T10 switches, which results in a different feedback path.

I’m confused about why the T10 switch needs to be closed in that configuration.


Could you please clarify this point?

I would greatly appreciate your help with this final question.

Best regards,

Anzinc.
