dual supplies of ±5 V. The following guidelines should be adhered to when selecting the values of
the components for these circuits.
1. The integrating resistor R 1 should be large enough to remain in the linear region over the input
voltage range but small enough for undue leakage current requirements not to be placed on the PC
board. A value of 470 is the optimum for a 2 V scale. For a 200 mV scale, 47 should be used.
2. For a conversion rate of three readings per second (48 kHz clock), the nominal value of the
integrating capacitor C 7 is 0.22 F. A capacitor with low dielectric absorption should be used
to prevent rollover errors. Polypropylene or polycarbonate capacitors should be preferred. If the
oscillator frequency is different, C 7 should be changed in inverse proportion in order to maintain
the same output swing.
3. Capacitor C 8 , the auto zero capacitor, influences the noise of the system. For a 200 mV full scale,
where the system noise is critical, a 0.47 F capacitor is recommended for C 8 . A smaller-value
capacitor can be used on larger scales. For instance, 0.047 F would do for a 2 V full scale.
A smaller auto zero capacitor has the additional advantage of a faster recovery from overload
condition.
