24-bit A/D converter noise free resolution help

hi,
i am developing a weigh scale application using Cirrus Logic 5532 24-bit ADC in unipolar mode.the output i am getting is very unstable (flickering on display). Can anybody please tell me how to get a stable count.

  • First of all i would like to tell u that the problem was with power line noise rejection. I had wrongly configured the ADC for 60Hz noise rejection(7.5Sps OWR) instead of 50Hz noise rejection and corresponding OWR of 6.25Sps.The display is now much stable(+-1 weight).

    this is my first project ...
    Get an analog PCB layout book or you will never get anywhere with this.


    This really is my first project.
    i am only developing the software for the project invloving the interfacing of the uc with the ADC, display, keyboard and AT24C02 eeprom in C using keil C51 tools and hence wanted to how if any coding could control the flickering.
    i was not part of the pcb desinging and layout process.

    Why do you use the forum to tell micro something?

    now:
    The display is now much stable(+-1 weight).
    earlier:
    my display is flickering in +/- 7 counts range with occasional surges

    do you still have the "occasional surges"?
