The AMP02EPZ is a first precision Instrumentation Amplifier for use with strain gage amplifier and thermocouple amplifier. Gain of the AMP02 is set by a single external resistor and can range from 1 to 10000. No gain set resistor is required for unity gain. The AMP02 includes an input protection network that allows the inputs to be taken 60V beyond either supply rail without damaging the device. Laser trimming reduces the input offset voltage to under 100μV. Output offset voltage is below 4mV and gain accuracy is better than 0.5% for a gain of 1000. ADI's proprietary thin-film resistor process keeps the gain temperature coefficient under 50ppm/°C. Due to the AMP02's design, its bandwidth remains very high over a wide range of gain. Slew rate is over 4V/μs, making the AMP02 ideal for fast data acquisition systems. A reference pin is provided to allow the output to be referenced to an external DC level.
