It has high bandwidth of 10 MHz, low THD and fast settling time of 615 ns to 0.001%. Offset drift and gain drift are specified to 1.2 V/C and 10 ppm/C, respectively for G = 1000. In addition to its wide input common voltage range, it boasts a high common-mode rejection of 80 dB at G = 1 from dc to 50 kHz. The combination of precision dc performance coupled with high speed capabilities make the AD8253 an excellent candidate for data acquisition. Furthermore, this monolithic solution simplifies design and manufacturing, and boosts performance of instrumentation by maintaining a tight match of internal resistors and amplifiers.

The AD8253 is available in a 10-lead MSOP package and is specified over the -40C to +85C temperature range, making it an excellent solution for applications where size and packing density are important considerations. The AD8253 user interface consists of a parallel port that allows users to set the gain in one of two different ways (see Figure 1 for the functional block diagram). A 2-bit word sent via a bus can be latched using the WR input. An alternative is to use transparent gain mode where the state of logic levels at the gain port determines the gain.

The quiescent power is the voltage between the supply pins (VS) times the quiescent current (IS). Assuming the load (RL) is referenced to midsupply, the total drive power is VS/2 x IOUT, some of which is dissipated in the package and some in the load (VOUT x IOUT). Table 3. 2 The difference between the total drive power and the load power is the drive power dissipated in the package.

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability. MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION The maximum safe power dissipation in the AD8253 package is limited by the associated rise in junction temperature (TJ) on the die. The plastic encapsulating the die locally reaches the junction temperature. At approximately 140C, which is the glass transition temperature, the plastic changes its properties. Even temporarily exceeding this temperature limit may change the stresses that the package exerts on the die, permanently shifting the parametric performance of the AD8253. Exceeding a junction temperature of 140C for an extended period can result in changes in silicon devices, potentially causing failure. The still-air thermal properties of the package and PCB (JA), the ambient temperature (TA), and the total power dissipated in the package (PD) determine the junction temperature of the die. The junction temperature is calculated as Airflow increases heat dissipation, effectively reducing JA. In addition, more metal directly in contact with the package leads from metal traces, through holes, ground, and power planes reduces the JA.

Simplified Schematic The AD8253 is a monolithic instrumentation amplifier based on the classic, three op amp topology as shown in Figure 5. It is fabricated on the Analog Devices, Inc. proprietary iCMOS process that provides precision, linear performance ,and a robust digital interface. A parallel interface allows users to digitally program gains of 1, 10, 100, and 1000. Gain control is achieved by switching resistors in an internal, precision, resistor array (as shown in Figure 5). Although the AD8253 has a voltage feedback topology, gain bandwidth product increases for gains of 1, 10, and 100 because each gain has its own frequency compensation. This results in maximum bandwidth at higher gains. Transparent Gain Mode The easiest way to set the gain is to program it directly via a logic high or logic low voltage applied to A0 and A1. Figure 6 shows an example of this gain setting method, referred to throughout the data sheet as transparent gain mode. Tie WR to the negative supply to engage transparent gain mode. In this mode, any change in voltage applied to A0 and A1 from logic low to logic high, or vice versa, immediately results in a gain change. Table 5 is the truth table for transparent gain mode and Figure 6 shows the AD8253 configured in transparent gain mode. All internal amplifiers employ distortion cancellation circuitry and achieve high linearity and ultralow THD. Laser trimmed resistors allow for a maximum gain error of less than 0.03% for G = 1, and minimum CMRR of 120 dB for G = 1000. A pinout optimized for high CMRR over frequency enables the AD8253 to offer CMRR over frequency of 80 dB at 50 kHz (G = 1). The balanced input reduces the parasitics that, in the past, had adversely affected CMRR performance. GAIN SELECTION This section shows users how to configure the AD8253 for basic operation. Logic low and Logic high voltage limits are listed in the Specifications section. Typically, logic low is 0 V and logic high is 5 V; both voltages are measured with respect to DGND. Refer to the specifications table (Table 2) for the permissible voltage range of DGND. The gain of the AD8253 can be set using two methods. Rev. prA | Page 8 of 10 Figure 6.

In such cases, devices can share a data bus. The gain of the AD8253 can be set using WR as a latch, allowing other devices to share A0 and A1. Figure 7 shows a schematic using this method, known as latched gain mode. The AD8253 is in this mode when WR is held at logic high or logic low, typically 5 V and 0 V, respectively. The voltages on A0 and A1 are read on the downward edge of the WR signal as it transitions from logic high to logic low. This latches in the logic levels on A0 and A1, resulting in a gain change. See the truth table listing in Table 6 for more on these gain changes. 1 X = don't care. Upon power-up, the AD8253 defaults to a gain of 1 when in latched gain mode. In contrast, if the AD8253 is configured in transparent gain mode, it starts at the gain indicated by the voltage levels on A0 and A1 upon power-up. Timing for Latched Gain Mode In latched gain mode, logic levels at A0 and A1 have to be held for a minimum setup time, tSU, before the downward edge of WR latches in the gain. Similarly, they must be held for a minimum hold time of tHD after the downward edge of WR to ensure that the gain is latched in correctly. After tHD, A0 and A1 may change logic levels but the gain does not change (until the next downward edge of WR). The minimum duration that WR can be held high is t WR -HIGH, and t WR -LOW is the minimum duration that WR can be held low. Digital timing specifications are listed in Table 2. The time required for a gain change is dominated by the settling time of the amplifier. A timing diagram is shown in Figure 8. When sharing a data bus with other devices, logic levels applied to those devices can potentially feed through to the output of the AD8253. Feedthrough can be minimized by decreasing the edge rate of the logic signals. Furthermore, careful layout of the PCB also reduces coupling between the digital and analog portions of the board.
