Product details
Overview
AD7796BRUZ-REEL from Analog Devices is a low-power, 16-bit sigma-delta ADC optimized for bridge sensor front ends, featuring an integrated instrumentation amplifier (gain = 128), on-chip temperature sensor (±2°C accuracy), internal 64 kHz clock oscillator, and simultaneous 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection - enabling high-precision weigh scale and strain gage measurement at 4.17–123 Hz update rates.
For engineers reviewing the AD7796BRUZ-REEL datasheet, AD7796BRUZ-REEL pinout, AD7796BRUZ-REEL application, or AD7796BRUZ-REEL equivalent, key selection criteria include its 65 nV RMS noise at 4.17 Hz, 250 µA typical supply current, 16-lead TSSOP package with independent AVDD/DVDD supplies, and SPI-compatible 3-wire serial interface supporting QSPI/MICROWIRE protocols.
Technical Context
The AD7796BRUZ-REEL implements a fully integrated analog front end with a fixed-gain (×128) instrumentation amplifier directly conditioning low-level bridge outputs, a Σ-Δ modulator with programmable digital filter, and dual-supply operation (AVDD: 2.7–5.25 V; DVDD: 2.7–5.25 V). Its internal temperature sensor connects directly to the ADC input path for real-time thermal compensation of bridge elements.
It supports both internal and external clocking modes - with CLK pin configurable as output (internal clock) or input (external 64 kHz or 128 kHz with divide-by-2) - enabling synchronized multi-ADC systems and enhanced 50/60 Hz rejection via precise external timing. The device delivers no-missing-codes performance over its full 16-bit range and operates across –40°C to +85°C.

Pinout & Package
AD7796BRUZ-REEL is housed in a 16-lead TSSOP package (4.4 mm × 5.0 mm, 0.65 mm pitch) with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. Pin 12 is GND; pins 4, 7, 8, and 11 are no-connect (NC); AVDD (Pin 13) and DVDD (Pin 14) are separate supply inputs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SCLK (Pin 1) | Serial clock input | Schmitt-triggered for noise immunity; supports opto-isolated interfaces and continuous/noncontinuous clocking |
| CLK (Pin 2) | Clock I/O | Configurable as internal clock output or external clock input - enables synchronization of multiple ADCs |
| CS (Pin 3) | Chip select | Active-low frame sync; can be hardwired low for 3-wire operation (SCLK/DIN/DOUT/RDY only) |

| DIN (Pin 16) | Serial data input | Loads configuration registers (mode, config, offset, full-scale) and initiates read/write operations via communication register |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Simultaneous 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection | 80 dB min at both frequencies using internal clock; improves to 94 dB min at 50 Hz with external clock - eliminates mains interference without external notch filters |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD7795BRUZ | 24-bit resolution, higher RMS noise (120 nV @ 4.17 Hz), same pinout and register map - requires recalibration for 16-bit system compatibility | Targeted at higher-resolution weighing (e.g., analytical balances) where 1 µg resolution is required | Select AD7795BRUZ only if 24-bit resolution and ≥19-bit effective bits are mandatory; AD7796BRUZ-REEL offers lower noise per bit and better power efficiency for 16-bit use cases. |
| ADS1232IPW | 24-bit delta-sigma ADC with PGA (1–128), but no integrated temp sensor or internal oscillator; requires external clock and reference | Used in cost-sensitive industrial scales where external components are acceptable to reduce BOM count | Choose ADS1232IPW when system already includes precision reference/clock and thermal compensation is handled externally; AD7796BRUZ-REEL reduces design complexity with full integration. |
Compared with AD7795BRUZ and ADS1232IPW, the AD7796BRUZ-REEL uniquely combines 16-bit precision, ultra-low 65 nV noise, integrated temp sensing, and internal clock in a single 16-pin TSSOP - minimizing component count and layout area while delivering optimal power/noise trade-off for mid-tier weighing and process control.

FAQ
What is the maximum update rate supported by the AD7796BRUZ-REEL?
The AD7796BRUZ-REEL supports a maximum output update rate of 123 Hz, achieved by programming the mode register's FS[3:0] bits to 0000. At this rate, RMS noise rises to 0.43 µV and effective resolution decreases to 16.5 bits (p-p), making it suitable for dynamic weighing or fast-response industrial control loops where speed outweighs ultimate noise performance.
Does the AD7796BRUZ-REEL require an external reference voltage?
No - the AD7796BRUZ-REEL operates with either an external reference (0.1 V to AVDD, nominal 2.5 V) or uses the internal bandgap as a reference when REFIN(+) and REFIN(−) are tied appropriately. However, external referencing is recommended for highest accuracy, as the internal reference exhibits ±0.5% initial tolerance and 30 ppm/°C drift - whereas a precision 2.5 V reference maintains <10 ppm/°C stability.
How does the AD7796BRUZ-REEL handle temperature compensation for bridge sensors?
The AD7796BRUZ-REEL integrates a calibrated on-chip temperature sensor (±2°C accuracy, 0.81 mV/°C sensitivity) that connects directly to the ADC input multiplexer. Users can sequentially sample the bridge output and temperature sensor, then apply linear or polynomial compensation in firmware - eliminating need for external thermistors or RTDs and reducing system BOM and calibration effort.
Can the AD7796BRUZ-REEL operate with different analog and digital supply voltages?
Yes - the AD7796BRUZ-REEL features independent AVDD (2.7–5.25 V) and DVDD (2.7–5.25 V) supplies. This allows interfacing with 3 V microcontrollers while powering the analog front end at 5 V for improved SNR, or vice versa. Digital I/O levels (SCLK, DIN, DOUT/RDY, CS) are referenced to DVDD, ensuring robust logic compatibility across mixed-voltage systems.
Is the AD7796BRUZ-REEL pin-compatible with the AD7797BRUZ?
Yes - the AD7796BRUZ-REEL and AD7797BRUZ share identical 16-lead TSSOP packaging, pinout, register map, and interface protocol. The primary difference is resolution: AD7796BRUZ-REEL is 16-bit, while AD7797BRUZ is 24-bit. Firmware designed for one can typically run on the other with minor configuration adjustments, though noise performance and effective resolution differ significantly at matching update rates.
