The TC7136 and TC7136A are low-power, 3-1/2 digit
with liquid crystal display (LCD) drivers with analog-to-
digital converters. These devices incorporate an "integra-
tor output zero" phase which guarantees overrange
recovery. The performance of existing TC7126, TC7126A
3 and ICL7126-based systems may be upgraded with minor
changes to external, passive components.
The TC7136A has an improved internal zener refer-
ence voltage circuit which maintains the analog common
temperature drift to 35 ppm/°C (typical) and 75 ppm/°C
(maximum). This represents an improvement of two to four
times over similar 3-1/2 digit converters. The costly, space-
consuming external reference source may be removed.
4 The TC7136/A limits linearity error to less than 1 count
on 200 mV or 2V full-scale ranges. Roll-over error — the
difference in readings for equal magnitude but opposite
polarity input signals — is below ±1 count. High-impedance
differential inputs offer 1 pA leakage currents and a 1012Ω
input impedance. The differential reference input allows
ratiometric measurements for ohms or bridge transducer
measurements. The 15 µVP-P noise performance guaran-
5 tees a "rock solid" reading. The auto-zero cycle guarantees
a zero display readout for a 0V input.
