ADS1220EVM Hardware Details
5.2.1 Primary Analog Interface, J4
All available analog pins of the ADS1220 connect to header J4. J4 can be used to connect analog signals
from off-board sensors or sources to the ADS1220. Table 5 provides J4 pin descriptions. J4 is a standard
10-pin, dual-row header, with 0.1-inch pin spacing.

Pin 1 is at the top left-hand corner, located opposite of the reference designator.
5.2.2 Bridge Sensor Connectors, J1 and J6
Connectors J1 and J6 are designed to be used with bridge sensor applications. J1 is a four-position screw
terminal block that can accept wire sizes AWG 28-16. J6 is a standard single-row, 4-pin header with 0.1-
inch pin spacing. Both connectors allow for excitation to be connected to the outer pins while the
differential signals from the sensor connect to the inner pins. Table 6 lists pin descriptions.
Bridge excitation is provided from the analog supply as needed. JP1 connects EXC+ directly to AVDD.
JP2 connects EXC– directly to AGND. To conserve power, EXC can also be connected to AGND
through the low-side switch of the ADS1220.
