The ADS7826IDRBRG4 is an IC component produced by Texas Instruments. It belongs to the family of analog-to-digital converters (ADC) and offers several key features that make it ideal for various applications.
At its core, the ADS7826IDRBRG4 is a 12-bit ADC with 8 input channels. This means it can convert an analog input voltage into a digital representation with a resolution of 12 bits, providing 4096 possible output values. The ADC uses the successive approximation register (SAR) architecture, enabling high-speed conversion rates of up to 200 kilosamples per second (ksps).
One of the notable features of the ADS7826IDRBRG4 is its low power consumption. With a typical power consumption of only 23.6 milliwatts (mW) during conversion, it is well-suited for battery-powered devices that require efficient energy usage. The low power operation also aids in minimizing heat dissipation within the system.
The device supports a wide operating voltage range, with a minimum voltage of 2.7 volts and a maximum voltage of 5.5 volts. This flexibility allows for compatibility with various power sources and ensures reliable operation across different electronic systems.
To facilitate ease of integration, the ADS7826IDRBRG4 offers an I2C-compatible serial interface. This enables straightforward communication with microcontrollers, ensuring seamless data transfer and control
