GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD8221 is a gain programmable, high performance
instrumentation amplifier that delivers the industry's highest
CMRR over frequency in its class. The CMRR of instrumentation
amplifiers on the market today falls off at 200 Hz. In contrast,
the AD8221 maintains a minimum CMRR of 80 dB to 10 kHz
for all grades at G = 1. High CMRR over frequency allows the
AD8221 to reject wideband interference and line harmonics,
greatly simplifying filter requirements. Possible applications
include precision data acquisition, biomedical analysis, and
aerospace instrumentation.

Figure 2. Typical CMRR vs. Frequency for G = 1
Low voltage offset, low offset drift, low gain drift, high gain
accuracy, and high CMRR make this part an excellent choice
in applications that demand the best dc performance possible,
such as bridge signal conditioning.
Programmable gain affords the user design flexibility. A single
resistor sets the gain from 1 to 1000. The AD8221 operates on
both single and dual supplies and is well suited for applications
where ±10 V input voltages are encountered.
The AD8221 is available in a low cost 8-lead SOIC and 8-lead
MSOP, both of which offer the industry's best performance. The
MSOP requires half the board space of the SOIC, making it ideal
for multichannel or space-constrained applications.
Performance is specified over the entire industrial temperature
range of −40°C to +85°C for all grades. Furthermore, the AD8221
is operational from −40°C to +125°C

  • Page 18: Gain Selection

    AD8221 GAIN SELECTION Grounding The output voltage of the AD8221 is developed with respect to Placing a resistor across the R terminals set the gain of the potential on the reference terminal. Care should be taken to AD8221, which can be calculated by referring to Table 6 or tie REF to the appropriate local ground.
  • Page 19: Reference Terminal

    AD8221 REFERENCE TERMINAL As shown in Figure 43, the reference terminal, REF, is at one end of a 10 kΩ resistor. The output of the instrumentation amplifier is referenced to the voltage on the REF terminal; this AD8221 is useful when the output signal needs to be offset to a precise midsupply level.
