General Description
The TC7126A is a 3-1/2 digit CMOS analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) containing all the active components
necessary to construct a 0.05% resolution measure-
ment system. Seven-segment decoders, digit and
polarity drivers, voltage reference, and clock circuit are
integrated on-chip. The TC7126A directly drives a liq-
uid crystal display (LCD), and includes a backplane
driver.
A low cost, high resolution indicating meter requires
only a display, four resistors, and four capacitors. The
TC7126A's extremely low power drain and 9V battery
operation make it ideal for portable applications.
The TC7126A reduces linearity error to less than 1
count. Rollover error (the difference in readings for
equal magnitude, but opposite polarity input signals) is
below 鹵1 count. High-impedance differential inputs
offer 1pA leakage current and a 10

input imped-
ance. The 15碌V
P-P
noise performance ensures a "rock
solid" reading, and the auto-zero cycle ensures a zero
display reading with a 0V input.
The TC7126A features a precision, low drift internal
voltage reference and is functionally identical to the
TC7126. A low drift external reference is not normally
required with the TC7126A.
