Figure 26. AD7153 Block Diagram
The core of the AD7152/AD7153 is a precision converter
consisting of a second-order modulator (Σ-Δ or charge-
balancing) and a third-order digital filter.
In addition to the converter, the AD7152/AD7153 integrate a
multiplexer, an excitation source, and CAPDACs for the capaci-
tive inputs, a voltage reference, a complete clock generator, a
control and calibration logic, and an I
2
C-compatible serial
interface.
The AD7153 has one capacitive input, while the AD7152 has
two capacitive inputs. For the AD7152, the modulator input and
the excitation source are multiplexed between the converting
channel. All other features and specifications are identical for
both devices.
CAPACITANCE-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTER (CDC)
Figure 27 shows the CDC simplified functional diagram. The
measured capacitance C
X
is connected between the excitation
source and the Σ-Δ modulator input. A square-wave excitation
signal is applied on the C
X
during the conversion and the mod-
ulator continuously samples the charge going through the C
X
.
The digital filter processes the modulator output, which is a
stream of 0s and 1s containing the information in 0 and 1
density. The data from the digital filter is scaled, applying the
calibration coefficients, and the final result can be read through
the serial interface. The AD7152/AD7153 are designed for
floating capacitive sensors. Therefore, both C
X
plates have to
be isolated from ground.

EXCITATION SOURCE
The AD7152/AD7153 have one excitation source. For the
AD7152, the excitation source is switched between the
excitation pins, EXC1 and EXC2, depending on which
channel performs a conversion.
