PRODUCTION DATA.
Figure 84 shows an application of the ADS1235-Q1 with a bridge circuit. The excitation voltage provided to the bridge is the ADC power supply voltage (5 V). Due to the low input-referred noise of the ADS1235-Q1, in many applications there is no need for an additional gain amplifier. The excitation voltage sense lines are connected to the reference inputs of the ADC with a noise filter. This configuration provides ratiometric operation that cancels noise and drift of the excitation voltage.
The input signal and reference voltage paths are filtered with equal-value components to remove high frequency noise from affecting the measurement.
