GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TC7106A and TC7107A 3-1/2 digit direct-display
drive analog-to-digital converters allow existing 7106/7107
based systems to be upgraded. Each device has a preci-
sion reference with a 20ppm/°C max temperature coeffi-
cient. This represents a 4 to 7 times improvement over
similar 3-1/2 digit converters. Existing 7106 and 7107 based
systems may be upgraded without changing external pas-
sive component values. The TC7107A drives common
anode light emitting diode (LED) displays directly with 8mA
per segment. A low-cost, high-resolution indicating meter
requires only a display, four resistors, and four capacitors.
The TC7106A low power drain and 9V battery operation
make it suitable for portable applications.
The TC7106A/TC7107A reduces linearity error to less
than 1 count. Rollover error – the difference in readings for
equal magnitude but opposite polarity input signals – is
below
±1
count. High impedance differential inputs offer
1pA leakage current and a 10
12
Ω
input impedance. The
differential reference input allows ratiometric measurements
for ohms or bridge transducer measurements. The
15µV
P–P
noise performance guarantees a “rock solid” read-
ing. The auto-zero cycle guarantees a zero display read-
ing with a zero-volts input.

*Static-sensitive device. Unused devices must be stored in conductive
material. Protect devices from static discharge and static fields. Stresses
above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause perma-
nent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those
indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied.
Exposure to Absolute Maximum Rating Conditions for extended periods
may affect device reliability.

NOTES:
1. Input voltages may exceed the supply voltages provided the input current is limited to
±100µA.
2. Dissipation rating assumes device is mounted with all leads soldered to printed circuit board.
3. Unless otherwise noted, specifications apply to both the TC7106/A and TC7107/A at T
A
= 25°C, f
CLOCK
= 48 kHz. Parts are tested in the
circuit of Figure 1.
4. Refer to “Differential Input” discussion.
5. Backplane drive is in phase with segment drive for “OFF” segment, 180° out of phase for “ON” segment. Frequency is 20 times
conversion rate. Average DC component is less than 50mV.

Integration resistor connection. Use a 47kΩ resistor for a 200mV full-
scale range and a 470kΩ resistor for 2V full-scale range.
The size of the auto-zero capacitor influences system noise. Use a
0.47µF capacitor for 200mV full scale, and a 0.047µF capacitor for
2V full scale. See Paragraph on AUTO-ZERO CAPACITOR for more
details.
The analog LOW input is connected to this pin.
The analog HIGH input signal is connected to this pin.
This pin is primarily used to set the analog common-mode voltage
for battery operation or in systems where the input signal is
referenced to the power supply. It also acts as a reference voltage
source. See paragraph on ANALOG COMMON for more details.
