ICL7135 ground loop

<< < (3/4) > >>

Well I just ordered some ICL7135 today @ Digikey for testing...but the TC500 series looks promising...just reading their appnote...

but then again...the linecard design features isolated CAN for communicating to the main controller (with GPIB/USB/Ethernet) and isolated power supply...
so no matter what the frontend chip is...it is (or should be ;o) easily replaceable...

Dr. Frank:
I used the 7135 over 25 years ago, with a small 6502 and VIA chip, sharing 5V supply,  for different thermometer sensors, PT100, special T-diode, a AuFe/Ni thermocouple.. required a 7650 chopper amplifier for x100 gain for 1µV resolution.. as long as the sensor is isolated from the digital ground there's no problem with ground loops, worked very well.
I used the counting method, with a gate, very easy, as described in the datasheet, with IRQ and FP arithmetic, everything written in assembler.
I still have this PCB /module somewhere.

It is recommended to use digital isolation. The power supply can use a module like B0505S-1WR2, but I think the 7135 circuit is more complicated. There are several peripheral components that need special attention. I have about 10PCS for the 7135. It is not easy to consider using it in the future. It’s a collectible. ;D

Thought of using this one:

SMT and 4.2kV isolation...and should arrive tomorrow for testing...

Yeah I know that the ICL family is kinda obsolete...but it fits to my other chips I am still keeping since 30 years (o;

The TC510 will be on my next digikey order (o;

Kleinstein:
In principle that power module looks good, but the ICL7135 also need some negative supply. So the more logical way would be a 12 V DCDC and than some local LDO / virtual ground to make the +-5 V.
