Introduction
This section describes a typical configuration for operating the evaluation board of the SX8724S with
ZoomingADC.
The SX8724S is a signal conditioner based on Semtech's ultra low power ZoomingADC™ technology. It
directly connects most types of miniature sensors with a general purpose microcontroller.
The SX8724SEVK is a USB based evaluation tool designed to allow simple and easy evaluation of the
suitability of the SX8724S device for a given application.
The analog input signal can be entered either in differential or single ended. Refer to the datasheet for the
impact of driving an analog input in single or in differential.
