RTD-to-Digital Converter
ADC Code = 15-bit ADC results from RTD Data registers
(01h–02h)
used to determine temperature by either calculations or
looꢀup tables.
R
= Resistance of the reference resistor
In the typical case of a PT100 RTD with a 400I high
precision low drift reference resistor, Table 9 shows
examples of temperature and resistance values with the
corresponding ADC code results.
REF
Once the resistance of the RTD is ꢀnown, the well-
defined resistive properties of the selected RTD can be
