GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7873 is a 12-bit successive approximation ADC with a
synchronous serial interface and low on resistance switches for
driving touch screens. The AD7873 operates from a single 2.2 V
to 5.25 V supply, with a throughput rate of 125 kSPS.
The AD7873 features direct battery measurement, temperature
measurement, and touch pressure measurement. The AD7873
also has an on-board reference of 2.5 V that can be used for the
auxiliary input, battery monitor, and temperature measurement
modes. When not in use, the internal reference can be shut
down to conserve power. An external reference can also be
applied and varied from 1 V to V
CC
with an analog input range
from 0 V to V
REF
. The device includes a shutdown mode that
reduces the current consumption to less than 1 µA.
The AD7873 features on-board switches. This, coupled with low
power and high speed operation, makes the device ideal for
battery-powered systems with resistive touch screens. The part
is available in a 16-lead, 0.15 inch quarter size outline package
(QSOP), a 16-lead, thin shrink small outline package (TSSOP),
and a 16-lead, lead frame chip scale package (LFCSP).
