The AD620ARZ instrumentation amplifier is a low-cost, high-precision instrumentation amplifier that requires only a single external resistor to set its gain, which ranges from 1 to 10,000. This amplifier, packaged in 8-pin SOIC and DIP formats, is smaller than discrete circuit designs and consumes less power (with a maximum supply current of just 1.3 mA), making it suitable for battery-powered and portable (or remote) applications.
The AD620 boasts high precision (with a maximum non-linearity of 40 ppm), low offset voltage (with a maximum of 50µV), and low offset drift (with a maximum of 0.6µV/°C). These features make it an ideal choice for precision data acquisition systems such as electronic scales and sensor interfaces. Additionally, it has low noise, low input bias current, and low power consumption characteristics, which make it suitable for medical applications like ECG and non-invasive blood pressure monitors.
The input stage of the AD620 utilizes Superβeta processing, enabling a low input bias current of up to 1.0 nA. At 1 kHz, the AD620 exhibits a low input voltage noise of 9 nV/√Hz and a noise of 0.28µV p-p in the 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz band, with an input current noise of 0.1 pA/√Hz. These specifications make it highly effective as a preamplifier. Furthermore, the AD620’s 0.01% settling time is 15µs, making it suitable for multiplexed applications. Its low cost allows for the design of systems with one instrumentation amplifier per channel with low input bias current.
For those looking for a domestic alternative to the AD620ARZ instrumentation amplifier, the TPA1286-SO1R by 3peak is a direct replacement. This alternative provides similar functionality and performance, ensuring that users can achieve the same level of precision and efficiency in their applications.
