Product details
Overview
AD7708BR-REEL7 from Analog Devices is a 16-bit Σ-Δ analog-to-digital converter optimized for low-frequency, high-precision measurement applications. It features 8 pseudo-differential or 4 fully-differential input channels, programmable gain (1–128), simultaneous 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection, and operates from single 3 V or 5 V supplies with typical power dissipation of 3.84 mW at 3 V. It is used in industrial process control systems to digitize transducer outputs without external signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the AD7708BR-REEL7 datasheet, AD7708BR-REEL7 pinout, AD7708BR-REEL7 application, or AD7708BR-REEL7 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 16-bit resolution with up to 16 bits peak-to-peak noise performance, CHOP mode vs. non-CHOP trade-offs for throughput versus noise, VREF Select™ capability for ratiometric or absolute measurements, and pin compatibility with the 24-bit AD7718 for scalable system design.
Technical Context
The AD7708BR-REEL7 integrates a rail-to-rail input buffer, programmable gain amplifier (PGA), on-chip oscillator (32.768 kHz crystal), PLL, and serial interface logic. Its Σ-Δ architecture supports software-programmable output data rates from 5.4 Hz (CHOP enabled) to 1.365 kHz (CHOP disabled), with configurable unipolar/bipolar coding and self-calibration routines.
It implements dual reference inputs (REFIN1 and REFIN2), two of which are multiplexed with analog input pins (AIN9/AIN10), enabling flexible reference sourcing. The device includes a 2-bit digital I/O port and supports SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE/DSP-compatible 3-wire serial communication with Schmitt-triggered SCLK.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-precision sigma-delta ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7718BR-REEL7 | 24-bit resolution, identical pinout and register map; higher noise performance (13–18 bits p-p), lower max throughput in CHOP mode (105 Hz vs. 105 Hz), same power specs | Required for sub-10 ppm system accuracy, e.g., laboratory-grade weigh scales or metrology equipment | Select when resolution and noise floor outweigh update rate needs; drop-in replacement with firmware register updates only |
| ADS124S08IPWR | 24-bit, 4-kSPS max, integrated PGA (1–128), but uses internal oscillator (no crystal required); different pinout (32-QFN), no CHOP mode, lower CMRR (105 dB typ) | Suitable for high-throughput sensor nodes where crystal footprint and CHOP timing constraints are prohibitive | Choose for simplified layout and faster sampling; requires PCB redesign and driver adaptation due to non-pin-compatible packaging and interface differences |
Compared with AD7718BR-REEL7, the AD7708BR-REEL7 trades resolution for deterministic timing and lower firmware complexity; compared with ADS124S08IPWR, it offers superior noise rejection at line frequencies and proven industrial reliability-but demands crystal layout and stricter grounding.

FAQ
What is the maximum update rate of the AD7708BR-REEL7 in non-CHOP mode?
The AD7708BR-REEL7 achieves a maximum output update rate of 1.365 kHz in non-CHOP mode (CHOP = 1), enabling faster channel scanning in multiplexed data acquisition systems while maintaining 16-bit no-missing-codes performance. This rate is achieved with SF word = 69 and gain = 1, as specified in the AD7708 (CHOP DISABLED) section of the datasheet. At higher gains or with filtering enabled, the rate decreases proportionally.
Does the AD7708BR-REEL7 require an external crystal?
Yes, the AD7708BR-REEL7 requires a 32.768 kHz crystal connected between XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins to operate-the internal oscillator buffer and PLL depend on this frequency to generate all internal clocks. Unlike some newer ADCs, it does not support internal RC oscillators or alternative clock sources; omitting the crystal prevents initialization and data conversion.
How does VREF Select™ work on the AD7708BR-REEL7?
VREF Select™ on the AD7708BR-REEL7 allows dynamic selection of reference source via configuration registers: REFIN1(±) can serve as the primary reference for absolute measurements, while REFIN2(±)/AIN9–AIN10 can be configured to use the same excitation voltage applied to a sensor bridge-enabling true ratiometric conversion. This eliminates ratio errors caused by supply drift and simplifies calibration in smart transmitter designs using the AD7708BR-REEL7.
Can the AD7708BR-REEL7 interface directly with a 3.3 V microcontroller SPI bus?
Yes, the AD7708BR-REEL7 supports 3.3 V digital operation: its logic inputs accept VINH ≥ 2.0 V and VINL ≤ 0.4 V at DVDD = 3 V, and outputs drive VOH ≥ DVDD – 0.6 V and VOL ≤ 0.4 V at 100 µA load-fully compatible with standard 3.3 V SPI peripherals. Level-shifting is unnecessary when DVDD = 3.3 V and the host MCU shares the same ground reference.
What is the purpose of the P1 and P2 pins on the AD7708BR-REEL7?
The P1 and P2 pins on the AD7708BR-REEL7 form a 2-bit digital I/O port, configurable as inputs or outputs via the I/O Control Register. They are referenced to AVDD/AGND-not DVDD/DGND-making them suitable for monitoring analog subsystem status (e.g., sensor fault flags) or driving LEDs directly from the analog domain, reducing inter-domain signal coupling in noise-sensitive applications using the AD7708BR-REEL7.
