LT1167 Single Resistor Gain Programmable, Precision Instrumentation Amplifier DESCRIPTION FEATURES n n n n n n n n n n n n n n Single Gain Set Resistor: G = 1 to 10,000 Gain Error: G = 10, 0.08% Max Input Offset Voltage Drift: 0.3V/C Max Meets IEC 1000-4-2 Level 4 ESD Tests with Two External 5k Resistors Gain Nonlinearity: G = 10, 10ppm Max Input Offset Voltage: G = 10, 60V Max Input Bias Current: 350pA Max PSRR at G = 1: 105dB Min CMRR at G = 1: 90dB Min Supply Current: 1.3mA Max Wide Supply Range: 2.3V to 18V 1kHz Voltage Noise: 7.5nV/Hz 0.1Hz to 10Hz Noise: 0.28VP-P Available in 8-Pin PDIP and SO Packages The LT (R)1167 is a low power, precision instrumentation amplifier that requires only one external resistor to set gains of 1 to 10,000. The low voltage noise of 7.5nV/Hz (at 1kHz) is not compromised by low power dissipation (0.9mA typical for 2.3V to 15V supplies). The part's high accuracy (10ppm maximum nonlinearity, 0.08% max gain error (G = 10)) is not degraded even for load resistors as low as 2k. The LT1167 is laser trimmed for very low input offset voltage (40V max), drift (0.3V/C), high CMRR (90dB, G = 1) and PSRR (105dB, G = 1). Low input bias currents of 350pA max are achieved with the use of superbeta processing. The output can handle capacitive loads up to 1000pF in any gain configuration while the inputs are ESD protected up to 13kV (human body). The LT1167 with two external 5k resistors passes the IEC 1000-4-2 level 4 specification. The LT1167, offered in 8-pin PDIP and SO packages, requires significantly less PC board area than discrete multi op amp and resistor designs. The LT1167-1 offers the same performance as the LT1167, but its input current characteristic at high common mode voltage better supports applications with high input impedance (see the Applications Information section).

Block Diagram THEORY OF OPERATION The LT1167 is a modified version of the three op amp instrumentation amplifier. Laser trimming and monolithic construction allow tight matching and tracking of circuit parameters over the specified temperature range. Refer to the block diagram (Figure 1) to understand the following circuit description. The collector currents in Q1 and Q2 are trimmed to minimize offset voltage drift, thus assuring a high level of performance. R1 and R2 are trimmed to an absolute value of 24.7k to assure that the gain can be set accurately (0.05% at G = 100) with only one external resistor RG. The value of RG determines the transconductance of the preamp stage. As RG is reduced for larger programmed gains, the transconductance of the input preamp stage increases to that of the input transistors Q1 and Q2. This increases the open-loop gain when the programmed gain is increased, reducing the input referred gain related errors and noise. The input voltage noise at gains greater than 50 is determined only by Q1 and Q2. At lower gains the noise of the difference amplifier and preamp gain setting resistors increase the noise. The gain bandwidth product is determined by C1, C2 and the preamp transconductance which increases 12 with programmed gain. Therefore, the bandwidth does not drop proportionally to gain. The input transistors Q1 and Q2 offer excellent matching, which is inherent in NPN bipolar transistors, as well as picoampere input bias current due to superbeta processing. The collector currents in Q1 and Q2 are held constant due to the feedback through the Q1-A1-R1 loop and Q2-A2-R2 loop which in turn impresses the differential input voltage across the external gain set resistor RG. Since the current that flows through RG also flows through R1 and R2, the ratios provide a gained-up differential voltage, G = (R1 + R2)/RG, to the unity-gain difference amplifier A3. The common mode voltage is removed by A3, resulting in a single-ended output voltage referenced to the voltage on the REF pin. The resulting gain equation is: VOUT - VREF = G(VIN+ - VIN-) where: G = (49.4k / RG) + 1 solving for the gain set resistor gives: RG = 49.4k /(G - 1) 1167fc LT1167 THEORY OF OPERATION Input and Output Offset Voltage Output Offset Trimming The offset voltage of the LT1167 has two components: the output offset and the input offset. The total offset voltage referred to the input (RTI) is found by dividing the output offset by the programmed gain (G) and adding it to the input offset. At high gains the input offset voltage dominates, whereas at low gains the output offset voltage dominates. The total offset voltage is: The LT1167 is laser trimmed for low offset voltage so that no external offset trimming is required for most applications. In the event that the offset needs to be adjusted, the circuit in Figure 2 is an example of an optional offset adjust circuit. The op amp buffer provides a low impedance to the REF pin where resistance must be kept to minimum for best CMRR and lowest gain error. 2 -IN - 1 Total output offset voltage (RTO) = (input offset * G) + output offset RG 3 + V+ 5 - The reference terminal is one end of one of the four 10k resistors around the difference amplifier. The output voltage of the LT1167 (Pin 6) is referenced to the voltage on the reference terminal (Pin 5). Resistance in series with the REF pin must be minimized for best common mode rejection. For example, a 2 resistance from the REF pin to ground will not only increase the gain error by 0.02% but will lower the CMRR to 80dB. +IN OUTPUT REF 8 Reference Terminal 6 LT1167 1 10mV ADJUSTMENT RANGE 1/2 LT1112 + Total input offset voltage (RTI) = input offset + (output offset/G) 2 10mV 100 3 10k 100 -10mV V- 1167 F02 Figure 2. Optional Trimming of Output Offset Voltage Single Supply Operation Input Bias Current Return Path For single supply operation, the REF pin can be at the same potential as the negative supply (Pin 4) provided the output of the instrumentation amplifier remains inside the specified operating range and that one of the inputs is at least 2.5V above ground. The barometer application on the front page of this data sheet is an example that satisfies these conditions. The resistance Rb from the bridge transducer to ground sets the operating current for the bridge and also has the effect of raising the input common mode voltage. The output of the LT1167 is always inside the specified range since the barometric pressure rarely goes low enough to cause the output to rail (30.00 inches of Hg corresponds to 3.000V). For applications that require the output to swing at or below the REF potential, the voltage on the REF pin can be level shifted. An op amp is used to buffer the voltage on the REF pin since a parasitic series resistance will degrade the CMRR. The application in the back of this data sheet, Four Digit Pressure Sensor, is an example. The low input bias current of the LT1167 (350pA) and the high input impedance (200G) allow the use of high impedance sources without introducing additional offset voltage errors, even when the full common mode range is required. However, a path must be provided for the input bias currents of both inputs when a purely differential signal is being amplified. Without this path the inputs will float to either rail and exceed the input common mode range of the LT1167, resulting in a saturated input stage. Figure 3 shows three examples of an input bias current path. The first example is of a purely differential signal source with a 10k input current path to ground. Since the impedance of the signal source is low, only one resistor is needed. Two matching resistors are needed for higher impedance signal sources as shown in the second example. Balancing the input impedance improves both common mode rejection and DC offset. The need for input resistors is eliminated if a center tap is present as shown in the third example. 1167fc 13 LT1167 THEORY OF OPERATION - THERMOCOUPLE RG - LT1167 MICROPHONE, HYDROPHONE, ETC RG - RG LT1167 + + 200k 10k LT1167 + 200k CENTER-TAP PROVIDES BIAS CURRENT RETURN 1167 F03 Figure 3. Providing an Input Common Mode Current Path APPLICATIONS INFORMATION The LT1167 is a low power precision instrumentation amplifier that requires only one external resistor to accurately set the gain anywhere from 1 to 1000. The output can handle capacitive loads up to 1000pF in any gain configuration and the inputs are protected against ESD strikes up to 13kV (human body). resistors are needed, a clamp diode from the positive supply to each input will maintain the IEC 1000-4-2 specification to level 4 for both air and contact discharge. A 2N4393 drain/source to gate is a good low leakage diode for use with 1k resistors, see Figure 4. The input resistors should be carbon and not metal film or carbon film. Input Current at High Common Mode Voltage When operating within the specified input common mode range, both the LT1167 and LT1167-1 operate as shown in the Input Bias Current vs Common Mode Input Voltage graph shown in the Typical Performance Characteristics. If however the inputs are within approximately 0.8V of the positive supply, the LT1167 input current will increase to approximately -1A to -3A. If the impedance of the circuit driving the LT1167 inputs is sufficiently high (e.g., 10M when +VS = 15V), this increased input current can pull the input voltage sufficiently high to keep the elevated input current flowing. The LT1167-1 has been modified so that the input current is typically two orders of magnitude lower under similar conditions. The LT1167-1 is recommended for new designs where input impedance is high. Input Protection The LT1167 can safely handle up to 20mA of input current in an overload condition. Adding an external 5k input resistor in series with each input allows DC input fault voltages up to 100V and improves the ESD immunity to 8kV (contact) and 15kV (air discharge), which is the IEC 1000-4-2 level 4 specification.

Input Protection RFI Reduction In many industrial and data acquisition applications, instrumentation amplifiers are used to accurately amplify small signals in the presence of large common mode voltages or high levels of noise. Typically, the sources of these very small signals (on the order of microvolts or millivolts) are sensors that can be a significant distance from the signal conditioning circuit. Although these sensors may be connected to signal conditioning circuitry, using shielded or unshielded twisted-pair cabling, the cabling may act as antennae, conveying very high frequency interference directly into the input stage of the LT1167. 1167fc 14 LT1167 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION The amplitude and frequency of the interference can have an adverse effect on an instrumentation amplifier's input stage by causing an unwanted DC shift in the amplifier's input offset voltage. This well known effect is called RFI rectification and is produced when out-of-band interference is coupled (inductively, capacitively or via radiation) and rectified by the instrumentation amplifier's input transistors. These transistors act as high frequency signal detectors, in the same way diodes were used as RF envelope detectors in early radio designs. Regardless of the type of interference or the method by which it is coupled into the circuit, an out-of-band error signal appears in series with the instrumentation amplifier's inputs. To significantly reduce the effect of these out-of-band signals on the input offset voltage of instrumentation amplifiers, simple lowpass filters can be used at the inputs. These filters should be located very close to the input pins of the circuit. An effective filter configuration is illustrated in Figure 5, where three capacitors have been added to the inputs of the LT1167. Capacitors CXCM1 and CXCM2 form lowpass filters with the external series resistors RS1, 2 to any out-of-band signal appearing on each of the input traces. Capacitor CXD forms a filter to reduce any unwanted signal that would appear across the input traces. An added benefit to using CXD is that the circuit's AC common mode rejection is not degraded due to common mode capacitive IN + CXD 0.1F IN - V+ RS1 CXCM1 1.6k 0.001F RS2 1.6k + RG LT1167 VOUT - CXCM2 0.001F V- f- 3dB 500Hz 1167 F05 EXTERNAL RFI FILTER Figure 5. Adding a Simple RC Filter at the Inputs to an Instrumentation Amplifier Is Effective in Reducing Rectification of High Frequency Out-of-Band Signals imbalance. The differential mode and common mode time constants associated with the capacitors are: tDM(LPF) = (2)(RS)(CXD) tCM(LPF) = (RS1, 2)(CXCM1, 2) Setting the time constants requires a knowledge of the frequency, or frequencies of the interference. Once this frequency is known, the common mode time constants can be set followed by the differential mode time constant. To avoid any possibility of inadvertently affecting the signal to be processed, set the common mode time constant an order of magnitude (or more) larger than the differential mode time constant. Set the common mode time constants such that they do not degrade the LT1167's inherent AC CMR. Then the differential mode time constant can be set for the bandwidth required for the application. Setting the differential mode time constant close to the sensor's BW also minimizes any noise pickup along the leads. To avoid any possibility of common mode to differential mode signal conversion, match the common mode time constants to 1% or better. If the sensor is an RTD or a resistive strain gauge, then the series resistors RS1, 2 can be omitted, if the sensor is in proximity to the instrumentation amplifier. "Roll Your Own"--Discrete vs Monolithic LT1167 Error Budget Analysis The LT1167 offers performance superior to that of "roll your own" three op amp discrete designs. A typical application that amplifies and buffers a bridge transducer's differential output is shown in Figure 6. The amplifier, with its gain set to 100, amplifies a differential, full-scale output voltage of 20mV over the industrial temperature range. To make the comparison challenging, the low cost version of the LT1167 will be compared to a discrete instrumentation amp made with the A grade of one of the best precision quad op amps, the LT1114A. The LT1167C outperforms the discrete amplifier that has lower VOS, lower IB and comparable VOS drift. The error budget comparison in Table 1 shows how various errors are calculated and how each error affects the total error budget.

Note that for the discrete solution, the noise voltage specification is multiplied by 2 which is the RMS sum of the uncorelated noise of the two input amplifiers. Each of the amplifier errors is referenced to a full-scale bridge differential voltage of 20mV. The common mode range of the bridge is 5V. The LT1114 data sheet provides offset voltage, offset voltage drift and offset current specifications for the matched op amp pairs used in the error-budget table. Even with an excellent matched op amp like the LT1114, the discrete solution's total error is significantly higher than the LT1167's total error. The LT1167 has additional advantages over the discrete design, including lower component cost and smaller size. Current Source Figure 7 shows a simple, accurate, low power programmable current source. The differential voltage across Pins 2 and 3 is mirrored across RG. The voltage across RG is amplified and applied across RX, defining the output current. The 50A bias current flowing from Pin 5 is buffered by the LT1464 JFET operational amplifier.

Since the DC portion of the signal is not important, R6 and C2 make up a 0.3Hz highpass filter. The AC signal at LT1112's Pin 5 is amplified by a gain of 101 set by (R7/R8) +1. The parallel combination of C3 and R7 form a lowpass filter that decreases this gain at frequencies above 1kHz. The ability to operate at 3V on 0.9mA of supply current makes the LT1167 ideal for battery-powered applications. Total supply current for this application is 1.7mA.

Nerve Impulse Amplifier The LT1167's low current noise makes it ideal for high source impedance EMG monitors. Demonstrating the LT1167's ability to amplify low level signals, the circuit in Figure 8 takes advantage of the amplifier's high gain and low noise operation. This circuit amplifies the low level nerve impulse signals received from a patient at Pins 2 and 3. RG and the parallel combination of R3 and R4 set a gain of ten. The potential on LT1112's Pin 1 creates a ground for the common mode signal. C1 was chosen to maintain the stability of the patient ground.

Low overall power dissipation necessitates using higher impedance bridges. The single supply pressure monitor application (Figure 9) shows the LT1167 connected to the differential output of a 3.5k bridge. The bridge's impedance is almost an order of magnitude higher than that of the bridge used in the error-budget table. The picoampere input bias currents keep the error caused by offset current to a negligible level. The LT1112 level shifts the LT1167's reference pin and the ADC's analog ground pins above ground. The LT1167's and LT1112's combined power dissipation is still less than the bridge's. This circuit's total supply current is just 2.8mA. 3V PATIENT/CIRCUIT PROTECTION/ISOLATION C1 0.01F Low IB Favors High Impedance Bridges, Lowers Dissipation 5 - 5 R6 1M 4 6 + 8 1/2 LT1112 - 4 -3V -3V 3 AV = 101 POLE AT 1kHz 7 OUTPUT 1V/mV R7 10k R8 100 C3 15nF 1167 F08 Figure 8.
