ICL7107 Description

ICL7107 is a high performance, low power, monolithic IC used for analog to digital conversions up to 31/2 digits.  It houses display drive circuitry inside it bypassing the need of connecting an external drive circuit. 


The input impedance is quite high. Polarity and digital drivers, segment decoders, voltage reference, and a clock circuit is already available on its board. ICL7107 is designed to connect LED display directly to it. 


The ADC uses a dual-slope conversion technique which inherently rejects interference signals from the ambiance. Rollover error is minimized less than one count which makes ICL7107 highly accurate.

Where to use ICL7107?

The ICL7107 is an ADC module with a resolution of 3 ½ bit, meaning it can display digital value from 0-1999. The ADC used here is a dual slop ADC, so the applied voltage is compared with a reference voltage and then is approximated to find the applied voltage. The speciality of this IC is that it has an in-built 4-digit 7-segment display driver inside it. So to display the measured voltage we simply have to hook up 7-segment display to the output of the IC and everything is ready. IT eliminates the need for MCU/MPU or programming.

The IC can measure voltages of maximum from -15V to +15V which is equal to the supply voltage. The digital output can vary from 0-1999 where each digit is displayed on a single 7-segment display. So if you are trying to measure voltage and display them on a 7-segment display without the use of MCU or programming then this IC might be the right choice for you.


How to use ICL7107?

Using ICL7107 is pretty straight forward, we just have to provide the reference voltage and set the internal clock for the ADC conversion to take place and we are all set. A basic sample circuit to measure voltage upto 200mV is shown below

HOW TO USE.png

The IC has an internal clock which can be set using the pins 38, 39 and 40 by using a Resistor capacitor network. The formulae to calculate the set oscillator frequency is shown below; typically the value is set to 48 kHz

FOSC = 0.45/RC

Once the clock is set we have to provide the reference voltage for the ADC conversion to take place. The value of the measured analog voltage will then be displayed on the 7-segment display the increment of count can be calculated using the following formulae

The accuracy and the range of the measured voltage can be measured by using external circuits involving potential divider or op-amps but as always there is a trade off between the accuracy and range. You can refer the datasheet at the end of this page to know more technical details.
