The LT
®
1167 is a low power, precision instrumentation
amplifier that requires only one external resistor to set gains
of 1 to 10,000. The low voltage noise of 7.5nV/√Hz (at 1kHz)
is not compromised by low power dissipation (0.9mA typical
for
±2.3V
to
±15V
supplies).
The part’s high accuracy (10ppm maximum nonlinearity,
0.08% max gain error (G = 10)) is not degraded even for load
resistors as low as 2k (previous monolithic instrumentation
amps used 10k for their nonlinearity specifications). The
LT1167 is laser trimmed for very low input offset voltage
(40µV max), drift (0.3µV/°C), high CMRR (90dB, G = 1) and
PSRR (105dB, G = 1). Low input bias currents of 350pA max
are achieved with the use of superbeta processing. The
output can handle capacitive loads up to 1000pF in any gain
configuration while the inputs are ESD protected up to 13kV
(human body). The LT1167 with two external 5k resistors
passes the IEC 1000-4-2 level 4 specification.
The LT1167, offered in 8-pin PDIP and SO packages, requires
significantly less PC board area than discrete multi op amp
and resistor designs. These advantages make the LT1167 the
most cost effective solution for precision instrumentation
amplifier applications.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be imparied.
Note 2:
Does not include the effect of the external gain resistor R
G
.
Note 3:
This parameter is not 100% tested.
Note 4:
The LT1167AC/LT1167C are designed, characterized and expected
to meet the industrial temperature limits, but are not tested at – 40°C and
85°C. I-grade parts are guaranteed.
Note 5:
This parameter is measured in a high speed automatic tester that
does not measure the thermal effects with longer time constants. The
magnitude of these thermal effects are dependent on the package used,
heat sinking and air flow conditions.
Note 6:
Hysteresis in offset voltage is created by package stress that
differs depending on whether the IC was previously at a higher or lower
temperature. Offset voltage hysteresis is always measured at 25°C, but
the IC is cycled to 85°C I-grade (or 70°C C-grade) or – 40°C I-grade
(0°C C-grade) before successive measurement. 60% of the parts will
pass the typical limit on the data sheet.
Note 7:
Typical parameters are defined as the 60% of the yield parameter
distribution.
Note 8:
Referred to input.
