AD7787
ADC CIRCUIT INFORMATION
OVERVIEW
The AD7787 is a low power ADC that incorporates an Σ-Δ
modulator, a buffer, and an on-chip digital filter intended for
the measurement of wide dynamic range, low frequency signals,
such as those in pressure transducers, weigh scales, and
temperature measurement applications.
The part has one differential input and one single-ended input. The
inputs can be operated in buffered or unbuffered mode. Buffering
the input channel means that the part can accommodate significant
source impedances on the analog input .The device requires an
external reference of 2.5 nominal. Figure 12 shows the basic
connections required to operate the part.
The output rate of the AD7787 (f
with the settling time equal to 2 × t
is the major function of the digital filter. Table 12 lists the
available update rates from the AD7787. Simultaneous 50 Hz
and 60 Hz rejection is optimized when the update rate equals
16.6 Hz as notches are placed at both 50 Hz and 60 Hz with this
update rate (see Figure 6).
NOISE PERFORMANCE
Table 13 shows the output rms noise, rms resolution, and peak-
to-peak resolution (rounded to the nearest 0.5 LSB) for the
different update rates and input ranges for the AD7787. The
numbers given are for the bipolar input range with a reference

of 2.5 V. These numbers are typical and generated with a
differential input voltage of 0 V. The peak-to-peak resolution
figures represent the resolution for which there is no code
flicker within a six-sigma limit. The output noise comes from
two sources. The first is the electrical noise in the semiconductor
devices (device noise) used in the implementation of the
modulator. The second is quantization noise, which is added when
the analog input is converted into the digital domain. The device
noise is at a low level and is independent of frequency. The
quantization noise starts at an even lower level but rises rapidly
with increasing frequency to become the dominant noise source.

REDUCED CURRENT MODES
The AD7787 has a current consumption of 160 µA maximum
when operated with a 5 V power supply, the buffer enabled, and
the clock operating at its maximum speed. The clock frequency
can be divided by a factor of 2, 4, or 8 before being applied to
the modulator and filter, resulting in a reduction in the current
consumption of the AD7787. Bits CDIV1 and CDIV0 in the
filter register are used to enter these low power modes (see
Table 14).
When the internal clock is reduced, the update rate is also
reduced. For example, if the filter bits are set to give an update
rate of 16.6 Hz when the AD7787 is operated in full power
mode, the update rate equals 8.3 Hz in divide-by-2 mode. In the
low power modes, there may be some degradation in the ADC
performance.
