GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8279 consists of two general-purpose difference
amplifiers intended for precision signal conditioning in power
critical applications that require both high performance and low
power. The AD8279 provides exceptional common-mode
rejection ratio (80 dB) and high bandwidth while amplifying
signals well beyond the supply rails. The on-chip resistors are
laser-trimmed for excellent gain accuracy and high CMRR. They
also have extremely low gain drift vs. temperature.
The common-mode range of the amplifiers extend to almost
triple the supply voltage (for G = ½), making them ideal for
single-supply applications that require a high common-mode
voltage range. The internal resistors and ESD circuitry at the
inputs also provide overvoltage protection to the op amp.
The AD8279 can be used as difference amplifiers with G = ½ or
G = 2. It can also be connected in a high precision, single-ended
configuration for non-inverting and inverting gains of −½, −2,
+3, +2, +1½, +1, or +½. The AD8279 provide an integrated
precision solution that has a smaller size, lower cost, and better
performance than a discrete alternative.
FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM
Figure 1.
The AD8279 operates on single supplies (2.0 V to 36 V) or dual
supplies (±2 V to ±18 V). The maximum quiescent supply current
is 200 μA per channel, which is ideal for battery-operated and
portable systems.
The AD8279 is available in a 14-lead SOIC package. It is
specified for performance over the industrial temperature range
of −40°C to +85°C and are fully RoHS compliant.
