PRODUCTION DATA
Refer to the PDF data sheet for device specific package drawings
Programmable gain amplifiers such as the PGA854 use internal resistors to set the gain. Consequently, the current consumption is increased by the current that passes through these resistors. The largest supply current consumption occurs at G = 2V/V when applying large amplitude differential signals.
Note that IQvalues in the specifications section are under the condition VIN = 0V. Higher supply current is to be expected for higher differential input levels. Same goes to bias current IB, which is specified with zero differential input. Input bias current increases slightly with increased differential inputs up to the linear input range limit (see Section 8.1.1 for details), If the input exceeds the linear input range limit (inputs are overdriven), the input bias current significantly increases.
Figure 8-5 to Figure 8-8 show typical current consumption versus input differential voltage for the input stage supply, and the current drawn by the PGA854 inputs when the device is overdriven. The dashed vertical reference lines outline the linear operating region of the device at that given gain (VIN), outside of this region is when the inputs of the device are overdriven.
