About this manual

The TC7126/A is a 3‑1⁄2‑digit analog‑to‑digital converter that integrates a precision voltage reference, LCD driver, and backplane driver on a single CMOS chip. It offers low noise (15 µVp‑p), high resolution (0.05 %), and ultra‑low input leakage (1 pA typ., 10 pA max.) for accurate measurements in portable applications.

Typical applications include thermometry, bridge readouts for strain gauges and load cells, and digital or panel meters for voltage, current, resistance, power, pH, and process monitoring. The device operates from a 9 V battery with a typical power dissipation of 500 µW and supports a conversion rate up to 16 kHz.
