This type of multi-input A/D converter is ideal for applications where many system parameters must be measured, and the need for such applications is increasing rapidly.

Because of their low power consumption the AS1910-15 family is ideal for portable and battery-powered systems, embedded controllers and communication systems. This includes dual-supply applications such as computers, intelligent instruments, critical processor and controller power monitoring. They are particularly well suited for use in microprocessor-based systems where the core processor typically has a 1.8V supply or lower while the periphery is powered with 3V or 3.3V. In such systems both voltages must be monitored simultaneously.

The analog inputs are software configurable in four different modes. The choice of 8-channel single-ended, 8-channel pseudo differential, 4-channel pseudo differential and the fully differential 4-channel mode offer utmost flexibility for various applications. The fully differential input mode enables especially precise measurements under noisy conditions commonly found in industrial environments.

The system should treat all user input as sacred.

I think for the first year and the first endeavor of this type that 70 applications is a great number.

The applications are no longer bound to the operating system.
