AM400 consists of a number of mo dular functional blocks which thro ugh external gating can either operate together or se parately (see figure 2). 1. the instrumentation amplifier (ia) with an internal gain of g ia = 5 acts as an input stage for differential voltage signals. its special constr uction permits a high comm on mode rejection ratio (cmrr). the amplifier reference potentia l is set externally using the AM400 pin za . output voltage v outia at pin outia is calculated for v za > 0 as: za in ia outia v v g v + = with 0 > outia v (1) where v in is the differential voltage between inputs pin in+ and pin in- of the ia and v za is the voltage at pin za . 2. the ensuing operational amplifier stage (op1) permits the ia output signal to be amplified further. op1?s gain of g gain can be set using external resistors r 1 and r 2 . protection against overvoltage has been integrated in to the device; this protective circ uitry limits the voltage to the set reference voltage value (cf. paragraph 5 in this section). 1 the principle of design is such that only the current output can be used in 2-wire operation. universal amplifier ic AM400 analog microelectronics october 2005 analog microelectronics gmbh phone: +49 (0)6131/91 073 ?

= (5) the reason for this is that in 2-wire operation the ic is connected in series to the actual load resistor r l . this is illustrated in figure 3. in 3-wire operation equation 5 no longer applies as the ic ground is connected to the ground of the system. for 3-wire operation the supp ly voltage can be expressed thus: s cc v v = (6) in a 2-wire setup the power consumption of the overall system (AM400 and all external components including the adjusting resistors) may not exceed i out min (usually 4ma). r l v s 2- wire system signal source and conditioning ic gnd ground v cc v s ground r l 3- wire system signal source and conditioning ic gnd ground = v cc = v s ground gnd = gnd v cc i out i out vv cc s = figure 3: the difference between 2- and 3-wire operation universal amplifier ic AM400 analog microelectronics october 2005 analog microelectronics gmbh phone: +49 (0)6131/91 073 ?

value of 0v cannot be obtained at ic output vout (cf. the comments on v outia in the electrical specifications). for this reason the 20-pole version of AM400 is preferable for small signals. ground v s i out v out r 1 r 2 r 3 r 4 c 1 r 0 t 1 d 1 r 5 r l r set AM400-1 3 4 2 v bg 13 5 14 12 11 10 9 8 16 v i 15 5v reference op3 1 7 6 ia op1 3-wire connection v outia the minimum voltage at the ia output is 16ma op2 AM400-1 figure 8: typical application for the 16-pole version of AM400 (3-wire) universal amplifier ic AM400 analog microelectronics october 2005 analog microelectronics gmbh phone: +49 (0)6131/91 073 ?
