Microchip Technology MCP3004 & MCP3008 Analog-to-Digital Converters

Microchip Technology MCP3004 and MCP3008 Analog-to-Digital Converters are successive approximation 10-bit Analogto-Digital (A/D) converters. The Microchip Technology converters feature an onboard sample and hold circuitry. The MCP3004 is programmable to provide two pseudo-differential input pairs or four single-ended inputs. The MCP3008 is programmable to provide four pseudo-differential input pairs or eight single-ended inputs.
