GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The CS5374 combines two marine seismic analog
measurement channels into one 7 mm x 7 mm QFN
package. Each measurement channel consists of a
high input impedance programmable gain differen-
tial amplifier that buffers analog signals into a
high-performance, fourth-order
ΔΣ
modulator. The
low-noise
ΔΣ
modulator converts the analog signal
into a one-bit serial bit stream suitable for the
CS5376A digital filter.
Each amplifier has two sets of external inputs, INA
and INB, to simplify system design as inputs from
a hydrophone sensor or the CS4373A test DAC. An
internal 800
Ω
termination can also be selected for
noise tests. Gain settings are binary weighted (1x,
2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x, 64x) and match the CS4373A
test DAC output attenuation settings for full-scale
testing at all gain ranges. Both the input multiplex-
er and gain are set by registers accessed through a
standard SPI™ port.
Each fourth-order
ΔΣ
modulator has very high dy-
namic range combined with low total harmonic dis-
tortion and low power consumption. It converts
differential analog signals from the amplifier to an
oversampled
ΔΣ
serial bit stream which is decimat-
ed by the CS5376A digital filter to a 24-bit output
at the final output word rate.
