AD7710SQ 24-bit ADC Analog to Digital Converter
The AD7710SQ is a complete 24-bit analog front-end signal conditioning ADC manufactured by ADI, specifically engineered for low-frequency precision measurement applications. This charge-balancing sigma-delta converter delivers true 24-bit no-missing-codes performance with an exceptional nonlinearity of just ±0.0015%, making it one of the most accurate ADCs in its class for direct sensor interfacing. The ADC accepts low-level signals directly from strain gauges, thermocouples, or transducers without requiring external instrumentation amplifiers, and outputs a serial digital word via a bidirectional microcontroller-compatible interface. Housed in a 24-DIP package, the AD7710SQ operates across an industrial temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, ensuring reliable deployment in harsh environments. It features two differential analog input channels with a programmable gain front end supporting gains from 1 to 128, an on-chip low-pass filter with programmable cutoff frequencies, and an internal 2.5V reference voltage option. Typical power consumption is just 25mW in normal mode, dropping to a mere 7mW in power-down mode, which makes it ideal for battery-powered and remote sensing systems.
The AD7710SQ is the go-to solution for weigh scales, thermocouple temperature measurement, process control loops, smart transmitters, and chromatography systems where high resolution and low drift are critical. It interfaces seamlessly with 8051, 68HC11, ADSP-21xx DSPs, and modern ARM microcontrollers through its SPI-compatible serial port.
