AD7705BNZ

The AD7705BNZ is a 16-bit, sigma-delta (Σ-Δ) ADC from Analog Devices, designed for low-frequency, high-precision measurements. It features two differential input channels, an on-chip PGA (Programmable Gain Amplifier) with gains from 1 to 128, and SPI-compatible serial interface for communication.
Key features:
- Resolution: 16 bits (no missing codes).
- Input Range: Bipolar (±VREF) or unipolar (0 to +VREF).
- Low Noise: Optimized for slow, accurate signals (e.g., sensors like thermocouples, strain gauges).
- Internal Clock: Eliminates external oscillator needs.
- Low Power: Suitable for battery-powered applications.
Applications include industrial process control, weigh scales, and portable instrumentation. The AD7705BNZ operates on 2.7V–5.25V, making it versatile for various systems.
For setup, configure register settings (gain, filter, mode) via SPI, then read conversion results. Its self-calibration ensures accuracy over temperature and voltage changes.
A compact, reliable choice for low-speed, high-resolution signal acquisition.
