GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7796/AD7797 are complete, analog front ends for high
precision, bridge sensor applications such as weigh scales. The
AD7796/AD7797 contain a Σ-Δ ADC capable of 16-/24-bit
resolution, respectively. The on-chip instrumentation amplifier
has a fixed gain of 128, allowing small amplitude signals such as
those from bridge sensors to be directly interfaced to the ADC.
Each part has one differential input and contains a temperature
sensor that is internally connected to the ADC. This sensor can
be used to perform temperature compensation of the bridge.
The devices can be operated with the internal clock or an
external clock. The output data rate from the parts is software-
programmable and can be varied from 4.17 Hz to 123 Hz.
The AD7796/AD7797 operate with a power supply from 2.7 V
to 5.25 V. Each part consumes a current of 250 μA typical and is
housed in a 16-lead TSSOP.
