Figure 5. Three Op Amp Instrumentation Amplifier
Assume CMRRA = 50µV/V or 86dB,
and CMRRB = 39µV/V or 88dB,
then ∆CMRR = 11µV/V or 99dB;
if CMRRB = – 39µV/V which is still 88dB,
then ∆CMRR = 89µV/V or 81dB
By specifying and guaranteeing all of these matching
parameters, the LT1169 can significantly improve the
performance of matching-dependent circuits.
Typical performance of the instrumentation amplifier:
Input offset voltage = 0.8mV
Input bias current = 4pA
Input offset current = 3pA
Input resistance = 1013Ω
Input noise = 3.4µVP-P
High Speed Operation
The low noise performance of the LT1169 was achieved by
enlarging the input JFET differential pair to maximize the
first stage gain. Enlarging the JFET geometry also increases
the parasitic gate capacitance, which if left unchecked, can
result in increased overshoot and ringing. When the feed-
back around the op amp is resistive (RF), a pole will be
created with RF, the source resistance and capacitance
(RS,CS), and the amplifier input capacitance (CIN = 1.5pF).
In closed-loop gain configurations with RS and RF in the
MΩ range (Figure 6), this pole can create excess phase shift
and even oscillation. A small capacitor (CF) in parallel with
RF eliminates this problem. With RS(CS + CIN) = RFCF, the
effect of the feedback pole is completely removed.
