Hi, I am attempting to design an analog input circuitry based on the AD7768-4. The application calls for a single-ended, AC-coupled input, with a range of +/- 8V. Max frequency is ~100kHz.
I am looking for suggestions/reference design for this particular application, specifically suggestions as to what front-end amplifier is suitable. I am also open to suggestions to use ADC chips other than the AD7768-4.
The end product is a portable vibration data logger, interfacing with IEPE vibration transducers. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi,
The most suitable front-end amplifiers for this type of application are amplifiers like the ADA4610-1, ADA4610-2, or AD8605, AD8606. These amplifiers provide a low noise option which makes them suitable…
The recommended drivers for AD7768 are ADA4945-1, ADA4896-2, ADA4940-1 for Fast Power Mode; ADA4945-1, LTC6363, ADA4805-2 for Low Power Mode; and ADA4945-1, ADA4807-2, ADA4940-1 for Median Power Mode…
I know it's old, but it might be of help to others reading.
Take a look at the AD8475. From the datasheet:
The AD8475 is a fully differential, attenuating amplifier with integrated precision gain resistors. It provides precision attenuation (by 0.4 or 0.8), common-mode level shifting, and single-ended-to-differential conversion along with input overvoltage protection. Power dissipation on a single 5 V supply is only 16 mW. The AD8475 is a simple to use, fully integrated precision gain block, designed to process signal levels of up to ±10 V on a single supply.
With a 150Mhz small signal and 15Mhz large signal bandwidths and a settling time of less than 50ns, it should be able to process any signals for input into the AD7758-X. I would use an INAmp in front though with those signals.
I used it to condition a 7Vpp 1.2Mhz complex signal for input into a 3.3V differential 5Msps 12bit ADC.
