Product details
Overview
AD7709ARUZ from Analog Devices is a 16-bit Σ-Δ ADC with integrated programmable gain amplifier (PGA), three switchable matched excitation current sources (200 µA, 200 µA, 25 µA), low-side power switches, and a 4-bit digital I/O port - designed for precision sensor front-end applications including RTD, thermocouple, and bridge transducer measurement. It supports ±20 mV to ±2.56 V input ranges, simultaneous 50/60 Hz rejection at 19.79 Hz update rate, and operates from single 3 V or 5 V supply.
For engineers reviewing the AD7709ARUZ datasheet, AD7709ARUZ pinout, AD7709ARUZ application, or AD7709ARUZ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 13-bit p-p resolution at 20 Hz on ±20 mV range, rail-to-rail buffered inputs, VREF Select™ for ratiometric/absolute measurement, ISOURCE Select™ for VBE sensing, and TSSOP-24 package compatibility with industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C).
Technical Context
The AD7709ARUZ implements a chopper-stabilized Σ-Δ architecture with Sinc³ digital filtering, enabling 16-bit no-missing-codes performance and ultra-low offset drift (±10 nV/°C). Its modulator sampling rate is fixed at 32.768 kHz via integrated crystal oscillator, and output data rate is software-programmable (5.4 Hz to 105 Hz) via 8-bit filter register (SF = 13–255).
It features dual reference inputs (REFIN1/REFIN2), configurable as two fully differential or four pseudo-differential analog channels (AIN1–AIN4 with AINCOM), plus on-chip functions including Schmitt-triggered serial interface (SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE/DSP compatible), 3-wire operation, and power-down mode consuming only 7 µA with crystal running.
Key Specifications

| 15–20 (RESET, SCLK, CS, RDY, DOUT, DIN) | Serial Interface Control | 3-wire SPI-compatible interface with Schmitt-triggered SCLK/CS/DIN - supports opto-isolation and noise-immune communication in industrial systems. |
| 21–24 (GND, VDD, XTAL2, XTAL1) | Power & Clock | Single-supply operation (2.7–3.6 V or 4.75–5.25 V); integrated 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator eliminates external clock components. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input buffer + PGA | Enables direct connection to high-impedance sensors (e.g., thermocouples, strain gauges) without external op-amps or level-shifting circuitry. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision Σ-Δ ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7190BRUZ | 24-bit resolution, higher PSR (105 dB), faster max update rate (4.8 kHz), but no integrated excitation currents or power switches. | Better suited for high-resolution static measurements (e.g., laboratory balances); lacks on-chip current sources for RTD excitation. | Select AD7709ARUZ when integrated 200 µA/25 µA excitation, low-side switches, and TSSOP-24 footprint are required for cost-sensitive embedded designs. |
| ADS1248IPWR | 24-bit, integrated PGA (1–128), 4-channel mux, but no excitation sources or power switches; requires external reference and clock. | Targeted at multi-channel sensor arrays (e.g., medical diagnostics); lacks VREF Select™ and ISOURCE Select™ hardware flexibility. | Choose AD7709ARUZ for applications demanding self-contained excitation, ratiometric measurement, and GPIO-integrated power control in a single RU-24 package. |
Compared with AD7709ARUZ, AD7190BRUZ offers higher resolution but requires external excitation circuitry and increases BOM count, while ADS1248IPWR provides more channels but lacks integrated current sources and power switches - making AD7709ARUZ uniquely suited for compact, low-cost RTD/bridge front ends with minimal external components.

FAQ
What is the maximum update rate of the AD7709ARUZ, and how is it configured?
The AD7709ARUZ supports a maximum update rate of 105 Hz, achieved by programming the filter register (SF) to decimal 13. This value sets the Sinc³ decimation factor to 104 (13 × 8), yielding the fastest conversion time of 9.52 ms. The update rate is software-configurable via the 8-bit SF word, with valid range SF = 13 to 255 corresponding to 105 Hz down to 5.4 Hz. Each increment in SF increases conversion time by 0.732 ms, allowing precise trade-offs between speed and noise rejection in the AD7709ARUZ.
Does the AD7709ARUZ support both ratiometric and absolute reference configurations?
Yes, the AD7709ARUZ supports both configurations via its VREF Select™ feature. When using REFIN1(+) and REFIN1(–), the device performs ratiometric measurement - ideal for bridge sensors where excitation current and reference share the same source, canceling drift. When using REFIN2(+) and REFIN2(–), it operates in absolute mode with an external precision reference, enabling high-accuracy voltage measurements. Both reference inputs accept 1 V to VDD, and the AD7709ARUZ maintains ≥110 dB common-mode rejection in either mode.
Can the AD7709ARUZ drive RTDs directly, and what current sources are available?
Yes, the AD7709ARUZ integrates three switchable, matched excitation current sources optimized for RTD measurement: IEXC1 and IEXC2 are 200 µA ±10% (200 ppm/°C drift), and IEXC3 is 25 µA ±5%. These can be routed to IOUT1/IOUT2 pins and support 2-, 3-, or 4-wire RTD configurations. The current matching (≤±2.5% between IEXC1/IEXC2) and low drift ensure accurate resistance calculation without calibration - a core capability of the AD7709ARUZ in temperature sensing applications.
What package type and thermal characteristics does the AD7709ARUZ have?
The AD7709ARUZ is supplied in a 24-lead TSSOP package (RU-24) with exposed pad for enhanced thermal dissipation. Its thermal impedance is θJA = 97.9°C/W and θJC = 14°C/W, supporting operation from –40°C to +85°C. The package footprint is compatible with standard surface-mount assembly processes, and the exposed pad must be soldered to a thermal pad on the PCB to maintain junction temperature within limits during continuous 1.25 mA operation. This mechanical specification is integral to the AD7709ARUZ's reliability in enclosed industrial enclosures.
How does the AD7709ARUZ handle power management for battery-operated devices?
The AD7709ARUZ offers three power states: normal (1.25 mA @ 3 V), standby (7 µA @ 3 V), and power-down (7 µA @ 3 V with crystal running). In power-down mode, the ADC core and digital logic are disabled while the 32.768 kHz oscillator remains active, enabling fast wake-up (<1 ms) for event-triggered sampling. This architecture allows the AD7709ARUZ to achieve ultra-low average current in intermittent-read applications - such as wireless sensor nodes - without sacrificing timing accuracy or measurement integrity.
