The PGA854 is a
wide-bandwidth, high-voltage, low-noise programmable gain instrumentation amplifier
with differential output. The PGA854 is equipped with
eight decade (scope) gain settings, from an attenuating gain of 0.5V/V to a maximum
of 100V/V. Gain is set using three digital gain selection pins.
The PGA854 architecture is optimized to drive inputs of
high-resolution, precision analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) with sampling rates
up to 1MSPS without the need for an additional ADC driver. The output-stage power
supplies are decoupled from the input stage to protect the ADC or downstream devices
against overdrive damage.
The
super-beta input transistors offer an impressively low input bias current, which in
turn provides a very low input current noise density of
0.3pA/√Hz, making the PGA854 a
versatile choice for virtually any sensor type. The low-noise current-feedback
front-end architecture offers exceptional gain flatness even at high frequencies,
making the PGA854 an excellent high-impedance sensor
readout device. Integrated protection circuitry on the input pins handles
overvoltages of up to ±40V beyond the power-supply voltages.
