The AD7828LRSZ is an integrated circuit (IC) component manufactured by Analog Devices. It is a low-power, 8-channel, 8-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) designed for precision measurement applications. The device is housed in a small 16-pin SOIC package, making it suitable for space-constrained designs.
Key Features:
1. Resolution: The AD7828LRSZ offers an 8-bit resolution, allowing for the conversion of analog signals into 256 digital output levels. This resolution is suitable for applications that require moderate accuracy.
2. Multiplexed Inputs: With 8 input channels, the AD7828LRSZ allows users to selectively sample and convert multiple analog input signals. This capability is advantageous when working with multiple sensors or sources, as it eliminates the need for multiple ADC chips.
3. Low Power Consumption: The IC operates under very low power consumption, making it ideal for battery-powered applications or devices where power efficiency is crucial. It consumes only 3.6 mW while converting at a 100 kSPS (thousand samples per second) rate.
4. Fast Conversion Speed: The AD7828LRSZ provides rapid conversion speeds, having a maximum sampling rate of 200 kSPS. This high-speed conversion capability is particularly beneficial when dealing with time-sensitive measurements.
5. SPI-Compatible Interface: The IC utilizes a serial peripheral interface (SPI) for communication with a microcontroller or other digital devices
