Product details
Overview
AD7709BRU-REEL from Analog Devices is a 16-bit sigma-delta ADC with integrated programmable gain amplifier (PGA), three switchable matched excitation current sources (200 µA, 200 µA, and 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 AD7709BRU-REEL datasheet, AD7709BRU-REEL pinout, AD7709BRU-REEL application, or AD7709BRU-REEL equivalent, key selection criteria include its 13-bit p-p resolution at ±20 mV/20 Hz, rail-to-rail buffered analog inputs, 3-wire SPI-compatible serial interface, and integrated excitation current matching (±2.5% between IEXC1/IEXC2) for ratiometric VBE measurements in portable instrumentation and smart transmitters.
Technical Context
The AD7709BRU-REEL implements a chopper-stabilized sigma-delta modulator with Sinc³ digital filtering, enabling 16-bit no-missing-codes performance and <±30 ppm FSR integral nonlinearity. Its on-chip PLL locks to a 32.768 kHz crystal to generate internal clocks, supporting programmable output data rates from 5.35 Hz to 105 Hz via an 8-bit filter register (SF × 8 decimation).
It features dual reference inputs (REFIN1/REFIN2), configurable as fully differential (AIN1/AIN2, AIN3/AIN4) or pseudo-differential (AIN1–AINCOM, etc.), with rail-to-rail input buffering and PGA gain settings from 1 to 128. The device integrates low-side power switches (SW1/SW2, RON = 3 Ω typ @ 5 V) and a 4-bit I/O port usable as general-purpose digital I/O or excitation control signals.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision sigma-delta ADC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7190BRUZ | 24-bit resolution, 4.7 Hz to 4.8 kHz update rate, internal PGA (1–128), but no integrated excitation current sources | Requires external current sources for RTD; better suited for ultra-high-resolution applications where excitation is handled separately | Select AD7190BRUZ when >16-bit resolution is mandatory and external excitation circuitry already exists |
| ADS1248IPWR | 24-bit delta-sigma ADC, integrated 200 µA excitation current, but only one current source and no low-side switches or I/O port | Lacks dual excitation matching and power-switch functionality; limited to single-sensor configurations without local actuation | Select ADS1248IPWR for cost-sensitive, single-channel RTD systems where GPIO and switching are unnecessary |
Compared with AD7709BRU-REEL, AD7190BRUZ offers higher resolution but requires external excitation and adds system complexity, while ADS1248IPWR reduces integration by omitting matched dual currents and power switches - making AD7709BRU-REEL uniquely suited for compact, self-contained 3-wire RTD or multi-sensor front-ends with local control.

FAQ
What is the maximum update rate of the AD7709BRU-REEL, and how is it configured?
The AD7709BRU-REEL supports a maximum update rate of 105 Hz, achieved by programming the filter register (SF) to decimal 13. This sets the Sinc³ decimation factor to 104 (13 × 8), yielding an output data rate of fMOD/(SF × 8 × 3) = 32.768 kHz/(13 × 8 × 3) ≈ 105 Hz. The update rate is software-configurable via the 8-bit Filter Register, with increments of 0.732 ms per SF step.
Does the AD7709BRU-REEL support both 3 V and 5 V operation, and what are the typical supply currents?
Yes, the AD7709BRU-REEL is specified for single-supply operation at either 3 V (2.7–3.6 V) or 5 V (4.75–5.25 V). At 3 V, typical supply current is 1.25 mA in normal mode and 7 µA in power-down mode with the 32.768 kHz crystal active. At 5 V, typical current is 1.45 mA normal and 6.5 µA power-down. These values are confirmed in the Rev. A datasheet Table "POWER REQUIREMENTS".
How does the AD7709BRU-REEL achieve simultaneous 50 Hz and 60 Hz rejection?
The AD7709BRU-REEL achieves simultaneous 50 Hz and 60 Hz rejection through its Sinc³ digital filter architecture when operated at a 19.79 Hz update rate (SF = 69). At this rate, the filter's first notches fall at 52.5 Hz and 60 Hz, providing ≥100 dB rejection for both frequencies without external hardware. This capability is explicitly documented in the "NORMAL-MODE REJECTION" section of the datasheet.
What are the key differences between the AD7709BRU-REEL and the AD7709ARU variant?
The AD7709BRU-REEL and AD7709ARU share identical pinout, functionality, and package (24-lead TSSOP), differing only in grade specification: AD7709BRU-REEL is the B-grade version with ±0.75 LSB full-scale error (typical), while AD7709ARU is A-grade with ±0.2% of FS full-scale error (typical). Both operate across –40°C to +85°C and use the same REEL packaging format.
Can the AD7709BRU-REEL's digital I/O port be used for both input and output functions?
Yes - pins AIN3/P3 and AIN4/P4 are configurable as either analog inputs or general-purpose digital input bits, while P1/SW1 and P2/SW2 can operate as digital output bits or low-side power switches. All four I/O lines support weak internal pull-ups and tolerate voltages from GND to VDD, enabling flexible system-level control and monitoring without additional GPIO expanders.
