Specifications

Note 1: Input current is a function of applied voltage on the analog input channels. For a given input voltage, Vin, the input leakage is approximately equal to (8.181*Vin-12) µA.

Note 2: Maximum throughput scanning to PC memory is machine dependent. The rates specified are for Windows XP only. Maximum rates on operating systems that predate XP may be less and must be determined through testing on your machine

Note 3:

The AD7870 converter only returns 11-bits (0-2047 codes) in single-ended mode.
