Overview

The AD623ANZ is a low-cost, high-accuracy instrumentation amplifier that delivers rail-to-rail output swing on a single supply from 3V to 12V. It is uniquely designed to allow the input voltage range to extend 150mV below ground, making it ideal for precision signal conditioning in single-supply systems.

Why Choose This Part

The device simplifies design by requiring only one external resistor to set gain from 1 to 1000. It features a low supply current of 375uA (typical) and high accuracy DC performance, making it suitable for battery-powered precision applications.

Applications

Transducer Interface
Amplifying small differential signals from pressure sensors, strain gages, and RTDs in industrial environments.
Medical Instrumentation
Used in ECG and non-invasive blood pressure monitors due to its low power consumption and high CMRR.
Data Acquisition
Providing precision front-end amplification for analog-to-digital converters in portable equipment.
Precision Voltage-to-Current Conversion
Creating stable current loops for industrial process control signaling.

Getting Started

To set the gain, connect a single external resistor across pins 1 and 8 following the formula G = 1 + (100k / Rg). For prototyping, the 8-PDIP package is breadboard-compatible, and the output should be referenced to the REF pin (pin 5) to establish the output swing center point.
