AD8236

The AD8236 is available in an 8-lead MSOP and is specified over the industrial temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. The AD8236 is the lowest power instrumentation amplifier in the industry. It has rail-to-rail outputs and can operate on voltages as low as 1.8 V. Its 40 A maximum supply current makes it an excellent choice in battery-powered applications. The AD8236's high input impedance, low input bias current of 1 pA, high CMRR of 110 dB (G = 100), small size, and low power offer tremendous value. An innovative input stage allows for a wide rail-to-rail input voltage range without the crossover distortion common in other designs. It has a wider common-mode voltage range than typical three-op-amp instrumentation amplifiers, making this a great solution for applications that operate on a single 1.8 V or 3 V supply.

The features of AD8236 can be summarized as (1)low power: 40 A supply current (maximum); (2)low input currents 1 pA input bias current/ 0.5 pA input offset current; (3)high CMRR: 110 dB CMRR, G = 100; (4)space-saving MSOP; (5)zero input crossover distortion; (6)rail-to-rail input and output; (7)gain set with single resistor; (8)operates from 1.8 V to 5.5 V.
