FEATURES
DESCRIPTIOU
The LT
1991 combines a precision operational amplifier
with eight precision resistors to form a one-chip solution
for accurately amplifying voltages. Gains from –13 to 14
with a gain accuracy of 0.04% can be achieved using no
external components. The device is particularly well suited
for use as a difference amplifier, where the excellent
resistor matching results in a common mode rejection
ratio of greater than 75dB.
The amplifier features a 50
μ
V maximum input offset
voltage and a gain bandwidth product of 560kHz. The
device operates from any supply voltage from 2.7V to 36V
and draws only 100
μ
A supply current on a 5V supply. The
output swings to within 40mV of either supply rail.
The resistors have excellent matching, 0.04% over tem-
perature for the 450k resistors. The matching temperature
coefficent is guaranteed less than 3ppm/
°
C. The resistors
are extremely linear with voltage, resulting in a gain
nonlinearity of less than 10ppm.
The LT1991 is fully specified at 5V and
±
15V supplies and
from –40
°
C to 85
°
C. The device is available in space
saving 10-lead MSOP and low profile (0.8mm) 3mm
