The MX7705 low-power, 2-channel, serial-output analog-to-digital converter (ADC) includes a sigma-delta
modulator with a digital filter to achieve 16-bit resolution
with no missing codes. This ADC is pin compatible and
software compatible with the AD7705. The MX7705 features an on-chip input buffer and programmable-gain
amplifier (PGA). The device offers an SPI-/QSPI-/
MICROWIRE-compatible serial interface.
The MX7705 operates from a single 2.7V to 5.25V supply.
The operating supply current is 320µA (typ) with a 3V
supply. Power-down mode reduces the supply current to
2µA (typ).
Self-calibration and system calibration allow the MX7705
to correct for gain and offset errors. Excellent DC performance (±0.003% FSR INL) and low noise (650nV) make
the MX7705 ideal for measuring low-frequency signals
with a wide dynamic range. The device accepts fully differential bipolar/unipolar inputs. An internal input buffer
allows for input signals with high source impedances. An
on-chip digital filter, with a programmable cutoff and output data rate, processes the output of the sigma-delta
modulator. The first notch frequency of the digital filter is
chosen to provide 150dB rejection of common-mode
50Hz or 60Hz noise and 98dB rejection of normal-mode
50Hz or 60Hz noise. A PGA and digital filtering allow signals to be directly acquired with little or no signal-conditioning requirements.
The MX7705 is available in 16-pin PDIP, SO, and
TSSOP packages.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Note 1: These errors are in the order of the conversion noise shown in Tables 1 and 3. This applies after calibration at the given
temperature.
Note 2: Recalibration at any temperature removes these drift errors.
Note 3: Positive full-scale error includes zero-scale errors (unipolar offset error or bipolar zero error) and applies to both unipolar
and bipolar input ranges.
Note 4: Full-scale drift includes zero-scale drift (unipolar offset drift or bipolar zero drift) and applies to both unipolar and bipolar
input ranges.
Note 5: Gain error does not include zero-scale errors. It is calculated as (full-scale error - unipolar offset error) for unipolar ranges,
and (full-scale error - bipolar zero error) for bipolar ranges.
Note 6: Gain-error drift does not include unipolar offset drift or bipolar zero drift. Effectively, it is the drift of the part if only zero-
scale calibrations are performed.
Note 7: The analog input voltage range on AIN+ is given with respect to the voltage on AIN- on the MX7705.
Note 8: This common-mode voltage range is allowed, provided that the input voltage on analog inputs does not go more positive
than (V
DD
+ 30mV) or more negative than (GND - 30mV). Parts are functional with voltages down to (GND - 200mV), but
with increased leakage at high temperature.
Note 9: The REF differential voltage, V
REF
, is the voltage on REF+ referenced to REF- (V
REF
= V
REF+
- V
REF-)
.
Note 10: Guaranteed by design.
Note 11: These calibration and span limits apply, provided that the absolute voltage on the analog inputs does not exceed (V
DD
+
30mV) or go more negative than (GND - 30mV). The offset calibration limit applies to both the unipolar zero point and the
bipolar zero point.
Note 12: When using a crystal or ceramic resonator across the CLKIN and CLKOUT as the clock source for the device, the supply
current and power dissipation varies depending on the crystal or resonator type. Supply current is measured with the digital inputs connected to 0 or V
DD
, CLKIN connected to an external clock source, and CLKDIS = 1.
Note 13: If the external master clock continues to run in power-down mode, the power-down current typically increases to 67µA at
3V. When using a crystal or ceramic resonator across the CLKIN and CLKOUT as the clock source for the device, the
clock generator continues to run in power-down mode and the power dissipation depends on the crystal or resonator type
(see the Power-Down Modes section).
Note 14: Measured at DC and applied in the selected passband. PSRR at 50Hz exceeds 120dB with filter notches of 25Hz or 50Hz.
PSRR at 60Hz exceeds 120dB with filter notches of 20Hz or 60Hz. PSRR depends on both gain and V
DD
.
Note 15: Provide f
CLKIN
whenever the MX7705 is not in power-down mode. If no clock is present, the device can draw higher than
specified current and can possibly become uncalibrated.
Note 16: All input signals are specified with t
r
= tf= 5ns (10% to 90% of VDD) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6V.
