GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8229 is an ultralow noise instrumentation amplifier
designed for measuring small signals in the presence of large
common-mode voltages and high temperatures.
The AD8229 has been designed for high temperature operation.
The process is dielectrically isolated to avoid leakage currents at
high temperatures. The design architecture was chosen to
compensate for the low VBE voltages at high temperatures.
The AD8229 excels at measuring tiny signals. It delivers industry
leading 1 nV/√Hz input noise performance. The high CMRR of
the AD8229 prevents unwanted signals from corrupting the
acquisition. The CMRR increases as the gain increases, offering
high rejection when it is most needed.
bandwidth at high gain, for example, 1.2 MHz at G = 100. The
design includes circuitry to improve settling time after large
input voltage transients. The AD8229 was designed for excellent
distortion performance, allowing use in demanding applications
such as vibration analysis.
Gain is set from 1 to 1000 with a single resistor. A reference pin
allows the user to offset the output voltage. This feature can be
useful when interfacing with analog-to-digital converters.
For the most demanding applications, the AD8229 is available
in an 8-lead side-brazed ceramic dual in-line package (SBDIP).
For space-constrained applications, the AD8229 is available in
an 8-lead plastic standard small outline package (SOIC).
The AD8229 is one of the fastest instrumentation amplifiers
available. Its current feedback architecture provides high

Comprehensive reliability testing is performed on the AD8229.
Product lifetimes at extended operating temperature are obtained
using high temperature operating life (HTOL). Lifetimes are
predicted from the Arrhenius equation, taking into account
potential design and manufacturing failure mechanism assumptions. HTOL is performed to JEDEC JESD22-A108. A minimum
of three wafer fab and assembly lots are processed through
HTOL at the maximum operating temperature. Comprehensive
reliability testing is performed on all Analog Devices, Inc., high
temperature (HT) products.

Figure 56. Simplified Schematic
ARCHITECTURE
Table 5. Gains Achieved Using 1% Resistors
The AD8229 is based on the classic 3-op-amp topology. This
topology has two stages: a preamplifier to provide differential
amplification followed by a difference amplifier that removes the
common-mode voltage and provides additional amplification.
Figure 56 shows a simplified schematic of the AD8229.

The first stage works as follows. To keep its two inputs matched,
Amplifier A1 must keep the collector of Q1 at a constant voltage. It
does this by forcing RG− to be a precise diode drop from –IN.
Similarly, A2 forces RG+ to be a constant diode drop from +IN.
Therefore, a replica of the differential input voltage is placed
across the gain setting resistor, RG. The current that flows
through this resistance must also flow through the R1 and R2
resistors, creating a gained differential signal between the A2
and A1 outputs.
The second stage is a G = 1 difference amplifier, composed of
Amplifier A3 and the R3 through R6 resistors. This stage removes
the common-mode signal from the amplified differential signal.
The transfer function of the AD8229 is
where:
6 kΩ
Placing a resistor across the RG terminals sets the gain of the
AD8229, which can be calculated by referring to Table 5 or by
using the following gain equation:

GAIN SELECTION
RG =
The AD8229 defaults to G = 1 when no gain resistor is used.
The tolerance and gain drift of the RG resistor should be added
to the AD8229’s specifications to determine the total gain accuracy
of the system. When the gain resistor is not used, gain error and
gain drift are minimal.
The AD8229 duplicates the differential voltage across its inputs
onto the RG resistor. The RG resistor size should be chosen to
handle the expected power dissipation.

The output voltage of the AD8229 is developed with respect to
the potential on the reference terminal. This is useful when the
output signal must be offset to a precise midsupply level. For
example, a voltage source can be tied to the REF pin to levelshift the output so that the AD8229 can drive a single-supply
ADC. The REF pin is protected with ESD diodes and should
not exceed either +VS or −VS by more than 0.3 V.

AD8229
Data Sheet
For best performance, source impedance to the REF terminal
should be kept well below 1 Ω. As shown in Figure 56, the
reference terminal, REF, is at one end of a 5 kΩ resistor.
Additional impedance at the REF terminal adds to this 5 kΩ
resistor and results in amplification of the signal connected to
the positive input. The amplification from the additional RREF
can be calculated as follows:
2(5 kΩ + RREF)/(10 kΩ + RREF)
Only the positive signal path is amplified; the negative path
is unaffected. This uneven amplification degrades CMRR.
INCORRECT

Poor layout can cause some of the common-mode signals to be
converted to differential signals before reaching the in-amp.
Such conversions occur when one input path has a frequency
response that is different from the other. To keep CMRR over
frequency high, the input source impedance and capacitance of
each path should be closely matched. Additional source resistance
in the input path (for example, for input protection) should be
placed close to the in-amp inputs, which minimizes their
interaction with parasitic capacitance from the PCB traces.
Parasitic capacitance at the gain setting pins can also affect CMRR
over frequency. If the board design has a component at the gain
setting pins (for example, a switch or jumper), the component
should be chosen so that the parasitic capacitance is as small as
possible.

A stable dc voltage should be used to power the instrumentation

INPUT VOLTAGE RANGE
Figure 11 through Figure 16 show the allowable common-mode
input voltage ranges for various output voltages and supply
voltages. The 3-op-amp architecture of the AD8229 applies gain
in the first stage before removing common-mode voltage with
the difference amplifier stage. Internal nodes between the first and
second stages (Node 1 and Node 2 in Figure 56) experience a
combination of a gained signal, a common-mode signal, and a
diode drop. This combined signal can be limited by the voltage
supplies even when the individual input and output signals are
not limited.
A 0.1 μF capacitor should be placed as close as possible to each
supply pin. As shown in Figure 59, a 10 μF tantalum capacitor
can be used farther away from the part. In most cases, it can be
shared by other precision integrated circuits.

Noise-sensitive applications may require a lower protection

and therefore allow smaller protection resistor values. To ensure
current flows primarily through the external protection diodes,
The maximum current into the AD8229 inputs, IMAX, depends
on both time and temperature. At room temperature, the part
can withstand a current of 10 mA for at least a day. This time is
cumulative over the life of the part. At 210°C, limit current to
2 mA for the same period. The part can withstand 5 mA at

RF rectification is often a problem when amplifiers are used in
applications that have strong RF signals. The disturbance can
appear as a small dc offset voltage. High frequency signals can
be filtered with a low-pass RC network placed at the input of
the instrumentation amplifier, as shown in Figure 63. The filter
limits the input signal bandwidth, according to the following
relationship:
FilterFrequency DIFF =
FilterFrequency CM =
where CD ≥ 10 CC.

Source Resistance Noise
0.1µF
Any sensor connected to the AD8229 has some output resistance.
There may also be resistance placed in series with inputs for
protection from either overvoltage or radio frequency interference.
This combined resistance is labeled R1 and R2 in Figure 64. Any
resistor, no matter how well made, has a minimum level of noise.
This noise is proportional to the square root of the resistor
value. At room temperature, the value is approximately equal
to 4 nV/√Hz × √(resistor value in kΩ).

CD affects the difference signal, and CC affects the common-mode
signal. Values of R and CC should be chosen to minimize RFI. A
mismatch between R × CC at the positive input and R × CC at the
negative input degrades the CMRR of the AD8229. By using a
value of CD one magnitude larger than CC, the effect of the
mismatch is reduced, and performance is improved.
Resistors add noise; therefore, the resistor and capacitor values
chosen depend on the desired tradeoff between noise, input
impedance at high frequencies, and RFI immunity. The resistors
used for the RFI filter can be the same as those used for input
protection.
Voltage Noise of the Instrumentation Amplifier
The voltage noise of the instrumentation amplifier is calculated
using three parameters: the part input noise, output noise, and
the RG resistor noise. It is calculated as follows:
Total Voltage Noise =
(Output Noise / G)2  ( Input Noise)2  (Noise of RG Resistor )2
For example, for a gain of 100, the gain resistor is 60.4 Ω. Therefore,
the voltage noise of the in-amp is
(45 / 100) 2  12  (4  0.0604 ) 2 = 1.5 nV/√Hz
CALCULATING THE NOISE OF THE INPUT STAGE
The total noise of the amplifier front end depends on much
more than the 1 nV/√Hz headline specification of this data
sheet. There are three main contributors: the source resistance,
the voltage noise of the instrumentation amplifier, and the
current noise of the instrumentation amplifier.
In the following calculations, noise is referred to the input
(RTI). In other words, everything is calculated as if it appeared
at the amplifier input. To calculate the noise referred to the
amplifier output (RTO), simply multiple the RTI noise by the
gain of the instrumentation amplifier.

Current Noise of the Instrumentation Amplifier
Current noise is calculated by multiplying the source resistance
by the current noise.
For example, if the R1 source resistance in Figure 64 is 4 kΩ,
and the R2 source resistance is 1 k Ω, the total effect from the
current noise is calculated as follows:
((4  1.5)2  (1  1.5)2 ) = 6.2 nV/√Hz
Total Noise Density Calculation
To determine the total noise of the in-amp, referred to input,
combine the source resistance noise, voltage noise, and current
noise contribution by the sum of squares method.
