HX711 is a precision 24-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) designed for weighing scales and industrial control applications to interface directly with a bridge sensor.
It's designed specifically for boosting cell signals and reporting them to another microcontroller.
Grove – ADC for Load Cell (HX711) is a 24-bit A/D converter specifically intended for load cells. It has a low-noise programmable amplifier on-chip with gain options of 32, 64, and 128.
The HX711 chip combines a regulated power supply, an on-chip clock oscillator, and various peripheral circuits for high integration, fast response, and good anti-interference performance.
With the Grove I2C connector and 4-pin screw terminal, it becomes quite easy to connect the load cell and microcontroller. no soldering is required. You can build your own Arduino weigh sensor system in just a few simple steps.
