GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD7785 is a low power, low noise, complete analog front end for high precision measurement applications. The AD7785 contains a low noise 20-bit ∑-Δ ADC with three differential analog inputs. The on-chip, low noise instrumentation amplifier means that signals of small amplitude can be interfaced directly to the ADC. With a gain setting of 64, the rms noise is 40 nV when the update rate equals 4.17 Hz.
