#104256 - Oxymoron?
Responding to: ???'s previous message

I am looking for a low cost 24bit Delta sigma ADC.

Surely "low cost" and 24-bit are mutually exclusive?!

If you really need 24 bits, you are going to have to do some serious low-noise, high-precision analogue design - and that does not come cheap! :-0
