Because the analog-to-digital function is provided by sensitivity is 2 mV/V. The excitation voltage for the bridge can a Σ-∆ architecture, the devices are more immune to noisy be used to directly provide the reference for the ADC because environments, making them ideal for use in sensor measurement, the reference input range includes the supply voltage. This al ows a and industrial and process-control applications. ratiometric measurement. Therefore, variations of the excitation voltage do not affect the measurement. WEIGH SCALES The on-chip temperature sensor can be used for temperature Figure 17 shows the AD7796/AD7797 being used in a weigh compensation of the bridge so the variation of the sensor scale application. The load cell is arranged in a bridge network resistance with temperature drift can be monitored and the and gives a differential output voltage between its OUT+ and conversions from the bridge can be compensated.
