Overview
The AD5933WYRSZ-REEL7, produced by Analog Devices Inc., is a high precision impedance converter system. This device integrates an on-board frequency generator with a 12-bit, 1 MSPS (mega samples per second) analog-to-digital converter (ADC). It is designed to measure the impedance of external complex loads by exciting them with a known frequency and then sampling the response signal using the on-board ADC. The device also includes a discrete Fourier transform (DFT) processed by an on-board DSP engine, which provides real and imaginary data-words at each output frequency. This makes it an ideal solution for various impedance measurement applications.
