Working Principles

The AD7824KN is based on the successive approximation register (SAR) architecture. It utilizes a capacitor array and a comparator to perform the analog-to-digital conversion. The input voltage is compared to a reference voltage, and the comparator determines the digital representation of the input signal. The conversion process is controlled by the internal clock and control signals.
