About AD7401A

Tarzan on Feb 1, 2016

Hi there,

I have a question about AD7401

Is it okay to connect Pin4 to GND?

If it's connect to GND, what would happen?

*According to the datasheet, it says Pini4 to 6 treated as NC(Non connect)

Best regards,

Tarzan

Hi, Tarzan.

Pin1 and pin7 are internally connected so you can supply the AD7401a via pin 7. However, please be aware that while the part is still functional, it cannot guarantee the performance since this is not how ADI tested it. Regarding the Pin 4, It can be connected to GND without any concerns.

Thanks,
