THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD8479 is a unity-gain, differential-to-single-ended
amplifier that can reject extremely high common-mode signals
in excess of 600 V with 15 V supplies. The AD8479 consists of
an operational amplifier (op amp) and a resistor network (see
Figure 33).

Figure 33. Functional Block Diagram
11118-033
–IN 2
To achieve the high common-mode voltage range, an internal
resistor divider—connected to Pin 3 and Pin 5—attenuates the
noninverting signal by a factor of 60. The internal resistors at
Pin 1 and Pin 2, as well as the feedback resistor, restore the gain
to provide a differential gain of unity.
To reduce output voltage drift, the op amp uses super beta transistors in its input stage. The input offset current and its associated
temperature coefficient contribute no appreciable output voltage
offset or drift, which has the added benefit of reducing voltage
noise because the corner where 1/f noise becomes dominant is
below 5 Hz. To reduce the dependence of gain accuracy on the
op amp, the open-loop voltage gain of the op amp exceeds
20 million V/V, and the PSRR exceeds 90 dB.

Figure 34. Basic Connections
The differential input signal, which typically results from a
load current flowing through a small shunt resistor, is applied to
Pin 2 and Pin 3 with the polarity shown in Figure 34 to obtain a
positive gain. The common-mode voltage on the differential
input signal can range from −600 V to +600 V, and the maximum
differential voltage is ±14.7 V. When configured as shown in
Figure 34, the device operates as a simple gain-of-1, differentialto-single-ended amplifier; the output voltage is the shunt resistance
times the shunt current. The output is measured with respect to
Pin 1 and Pin 5.
Pin 1 and Pin 5 (REF(−) and (REF(+)) should be grounded for a
gain of unity and should be connected to the same low impedance
ground plane. Failure to do this results in degraded common-mode
rejection. Pin 8 is a no connect pin and should be left open.
When the AD8479 is operated with a single supply and a
reference voltage is applied to REF(+) and REF(−), the input
common-mode voltage range of the AD8479 is reduced. The
reduced input common-mode range depends on the voltage at
the inverting and noninverting inputs of the internal op amp,
labeled VX and VY in Figure 35. These nodes can swing to within
1 V of either rail. Therefore, for a single supply voltage of 10 V,
VX and VY can have a value from 1 V to 9 V. If VREF is set to 5 V,
the allowable common-mode voltage range is +245 V to −235 V.
The common-mode voltage range can be calculated as follows:
VCM(±) = 60 × (VX or VY(±)) − (59 × VREF)
SYSTEM-LEVEL DECOUPLING AND GROUNDING
The use of ground planes is recommended to minimize the
impedance of ground returns and, therefore, the size of dc errors.
Figure 36 shows how to use grounding in a mixed-signal environment, that is, with digital and analog signals present. To isolate
low level analog signals from a noisy digital environment, many
data acquisition components have separate analog and digital
ground returns. All ground pins from mixed-signal components,
such as ADCs, should return through a low impedance analog
ground plane. Digital ground lines of mixed-signal converters
should also be connected to the analog ground plane.

Figure 35 shows the connections for operating the AD8479 with
a single supply. Because the output can swing to within only about
0.3 V of either rail, an offset must be applied to the output. This
offset can be applied by connecting REF(+) and REF(−) to a low
impedance reference voltage that is capable of sinking current
(some ADCs provide this voltage as an output). Therefore, for a
single supply of 10 V, VREF can be set to 5 V for a bipolar input
signal, allowing the output to swing ±9.4 V around the central
5 V reference voltage. For unipolar input signals, VREF can be set
to approximately 1 V, allowing the output to swing from 1 V (for
a 0 V input) to within 0.3 V of the positive rail.

Figure 34 shows the basic connections for operating the
AD8479 with a dual supply. A supply voltage from ±2.5 V to
±18 V is applied across Pin 7 and Pin 4. Both supplies should be
decoupled close to the pins using 0.1 μF capacitors. Electrolytic
capacitors of 10 μF, also located close to the supply pins, may be
required if low frequency noise is present on the power supply.
Although multiple amplifiers can be decoupled by a single set of
10 μF capacitors, each AD8479 should have its own set of 0.1 μF
capacitors so that the decoupling point can be located directly at
the IC power pins.

Typically, analog and digital grounds should be separated. At
the same time, however, the voltage difference between digital
and analog grounds on a converter must also be minimized to
keep this difference as small as possible (typically <0.3 V). The
increased noise—caused by the digital return currents of the
converter flowing through the analog ground plane—is typically
negligible.
USING A LARGE SHUNT RESISTOR
The insertion of a large value shunt resistor across the input pins,
Pin 2 and Pin 3, unbalances the input resistor network, thereby
introducing common-mode error. The magnitude of the error
depends on the common-mode voltage and the magnitude of
the shunt resistor (RSHUNT).
Table 4 shows some sample error voltages generated by a
common-mode voltage of 600 V dc with shunt resistors from
20 Ω to 2000 Ω. Assuming that the shunt resistor is selected to
use the full ±10 V output swing of the AD8479, the error voltage
becomes quite significant as the value of RSHUNT increases.
Maximum isolation between analog and digital signals is
achieved by connecting the ground planes back to the supplies.
Note that Figure 36 suggests a star ground system for the analog
circuitry, with all ground lines connected, in this case, to the
analog ground of the ADC. However, when ground planes are
used, it is sufficient to connect ground pins to the nearest point
on the low impedance ground plane.

If only one power supply is available, it must be shared by both
digital and analog circuitry. Figure 37 shows how to minimize
interference between the digital and analog circuitry. In Figure 37,
the reference of the ADC is used to drive the REF(+) and REF(−)
pins of the AD8479. This means that the reference must be capable
of sourcing and sinking a current equal to VCM/500 kΩ.

To measure low current or current near zero in a high commonmode voltage environment, an external resistor equal to the shunt
resistor value can be added to the low impedance side of the shunt
resistor, as shown in Figure 38.

Figure 37. Optimal Grounding Practice for a Single-Supply Environment
As in the dual-supply environment, separate analog and digital
ground planes should be used (although reasonably thick traces
can be used as an alternative to a digital ground plane). These
ground planes should connect at the ground pin of the power
supply. Separate traces (or power planes) should run from the
power supply to the supply pins of the digital and analog circuits.
Ideally, each device should have its own power supply trace, but
these traces can be shared by a number of devices, as long as a
single trace is not used to route current to both digital and
analog circuitry.

OUTPUT FILTERING
GAIN OF 60 DIFFERENTIAL AMPLIFIER
To limit noise at the output, a simple two-pole, low-pass Butterworth filter can be implemented using the ADA4077-2 after the
AD8479, as shown in Figure 39.
Low level signals can be connected directly to the −IN and +IN
inputs of the AD8479. Differential input signals can also be connected to give a precise gain of 60 (see Figure 40); however, large
common-mode voltages are no longer permissible. Cold junction
compensation can be implemented using a temperature sensor,
such as the AD590.

The calculations in Table 6 assume an induced noise level of
1 V p-p at 60 Hz on the lead wires, in addition to a full-scale dc
differential voltage of 10 V. The error budget table quantifies the
contribution of each error source. Note that the dominant error
source in this example is due to the dc common-mode voltage.
ERROR BUDGET ANALYSIS EXAMPLE
In the dc application described in this section, the 10 A output
current from a device with a high common-mode voltage (such
as a power supply or current-mode amplifier) is sensed across a
1 Ω shunt resistor (see Figure 41). The common-mode voltage is
600 V, and the resistor terminals are connected through a long
pair of lead wires located in a high noise environment, for example,
50 Hz/60 Hz, 440 V ac power lines.
