GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8224 is the first single-supply, JFET input instrumentation
amplifier available in the space-saving 16-lead, 4 mm × 4 mm
LFCSP. It requires the same board area as a typical single
instrumentation amplifier yet doubles the channel density
and offers a lower cost per channel without compromising
performance.
Designed to meet the needs of high performance, portable
instrumentation, the AD8224 has a minimum common-mode
rejection ratio (CMRR) of 86 dB at dc and a minimum CMRR
of 80 dB at 10 kHz for G = 1. Maximum input bias current is 10 pA
and typically remains below 300 pA over the entire industrial
temperature range. Despite the JFET inputs, the AD8224
typically has a noise corner of only 10 Hz.
With the proliferation of mixed-signal processing, the number
of power supplies required in each system has grown. Designed
Rev. D
to alleviate this problem, the AD8224 can operate on a ±18 V
dual supply, as well as on a single +5 V supply. The device’s railto-rail output stage maximizes dynamic range on the low voltage
supplies common in portable applications. Its ability to run on a
single 5 V supply eliminates the need for higher voltage, dual
supplies. The AD8224 draws 750 µA of quiescent current per
amplifier, making it ideal for battery powered devices.
In addition, the AD8224 can be configured as a single-channel,
differential output, instrumentation amplifier. Differential
outputs provide high noise immunity, which can be useful when
the output signal must travel through a noisy environment, such
as with remote sensors. The configuration can also be used to
drive differential input ADCs. For a single-channel version, use
the AD8220.

When the output sinks more than 4 mA, use a 47 pF capacitor in parallel with the load to prevent ringing. Otherwise, use a larger load, such as 10 kΩ.
Refers to the differential configuration shown in Figure 64.
Refer to Figure 15 and Figure 16 for the relationship between input current and temperature.
4
Differential and common-mode input impedance can be calculated from the pin impedance: ZDIFF = 2(ZPIN); ZCM = ZPIN/2.
5
The AD8224 can operate up to a diode drop below the negative supply; however, the bias current increases sharply. The input voltage range reflects the maximum
allowable voltage where the input bias current is within the specification.
6
At this supply voltage, ensure that the input common-mode voltage is within the input voltage range specification.
7
The AD8224 is characterized from −40°C to +125°C. See the Typical Performance Characteristics section for expected operation in this temperature range.

When the output sinks more than 4 mA, use a 47 pF capacitor in parallel with the load to prevent ringing. Otherwise, use a larger load, such as 10 kΩ.
Refers to the differential configuration shown in Figure 64.

Refer to Figure 15 and Figure 16 for the relationship between input current and temperature.
4
Differential and common-mode impedance can be calculated from the pin impedance: ZDIFF = 2(ZPIN); ZCM = ZPIN/2.
5
The AD8224 can operate up to a diode drop below the negative supply, but the bias current increases sharply. The input voltage range reflects the maximum
allowable voltage where the input bias current is within the specification.
6
The AD8224 is characterized from −40°C to +125°C. See the Typical Performance Characteristics section for expected operation in that temperature range.

The maximum safe power dissipation for the AD8224 is limited
by the associated rise in junction temperature (TJ) on the die. At
approximately 130°C, which is the glass transition temperature,
the plastic changes its properties. Even temporarily exceeding
this temperature limit may change the stresses that the package
exerts on the die, permanently shifting the parametric performance
of the amplifiers. Exceeding a temperature of 130°C for an
extended period can result in a loss of functionality. Figure 2
shows the maximum safe power dissipation in the package vs.
the ambient temperature for the LFCSP on a 4-layer JEDEC
standard board.

Temperature for specified performance is −40°C to +85°C. For performance
to 125°C, see the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
Stresses at or above those listed under Absolute Maximum
Ratings may cause permanent damage to the product. This is a
stress rating only; functional operation of the product at these
or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Operation beyond
the maximum operating conditions for extended periods may
affect product reliability.

Figure 56. Simplified Schematic
The AD8224 is a JFET input, monolithic instrumentation amplifier
based on the classic three op amp topology (see Figure 56). Input
Transistor J1 and Input Transistor J2 are biased at a fixed current so
that any input signal forces the output voltages of A1 and A2 to
change accordingly. The input signal creates a current through RG
that flows in R1 and R2 such that the outputs of A1 and A2 provide
the correct, gained signal. Topologically, J1, A1, and R1 and J2, A2,
and R2 can be viewed as precision current feedback amplifiers. The
common-mode voltage and amplified differential signal from
A1 and A2 are applied to a difference amplifier that rejects the
common-mode voltage but amplifies the differential signal. The
difference amplifier employs 20 kΩ laser trimmed resistors that
result in an in-amp with a gain error of less than 0.04%. New trim
techniques were developed to ensure that the CMRR exceeds 86 dB
(G = 1).
Using JFET transistors, the AD8224 offers an extremely high
input impedance, extremely low bias currents of 10 pA maximum,
low offset current of 0.6 pA maximum, and no input bias
current noise. In addition, input offset is less than 175 μV
and drift is less than 5 μV/°C. Ease of use and robustness were
considered. A common problem for instrumentation amplifiers
is that at high gains, when the input is overdriven, an excessive
milliampere input bias current can result, and the output can
undergo phase reversal.
Overdriving the input at high gains refers to when the input
signal is within the supply voltages but the amplifier cannot
output the gained signal. For example, at a gain of 100, driving
the amplifier with 10 V on ±15 V constitutes overdriving the
inputs because the amplifier cannot output 100 V.
The AD8224 has none of these problems; its input bias current
is limited to less than 10 μA, and the output does not phase
reverse under overdrive fault conditions.
The AD8224 has extremely low load induced nonlinearity. All
amplifiers that comprise the AD8224 have rail-to-rail output
capability for enhanced dynamic range. The input of the AD8224
can amplify signals with wide common-mode voltages even slightly
lower than the negative supply rail. The AD8224 operates over a
wide supply voltage range. It can operate from either a single
+4.5 V to +36 V supply or a dual ±2.25 V to ±18 V. The transfer
function of the AD8224 is
G 1 
49.4 kΩ
RG
Users can easily and accurately set the gain using a single,
standard resistor. Because the input amplifiers employ a current
feedback architecture, the AD8224 gain bandwidth product
increases with gain, resulting in a system that does not experience
as much bandwidth loss as voltage feedback architectures at
higher gains.
GAIN SELECTION
Placing a resistor across the RG terminals sets the gain of the
AD8224. This is calculated by referring to Table 13 or by using
the following gain equation

The AD8224 is a high precision device. To ensure optimum
performance at the PCB level, care must be taken in the design
of the board layout. The AD8224 pinout is arranged in a logical
manner to aid in this task.

Package Considerations
The AD8224 is available in two version s of the 16-lead, 4 mm ×
4 mm LFCSP package: with or without an exposed pad. Blindly
copying the footprint from another 4 mm × 4 mm LFCSP part
is not recommended because it may not have the same thermal
pad size and leads. Refer to the Outline Dimensions section to
verify that the PCB symbol has the correct dimensions.
The AD8224 defaults to G = 1 when no gain resistor is used.
The tolerance and gain drift of the RG resistor should be added
to the AD8224 specifications to determine the total gain
accuracy of the system. When the gain resistor is not used,
gain error and gain drift are kept to a minimum.
Hidden Paddle Package
REFERENCE TERMINAL
The output voltage of the AD8224 is developed with respect to
the potential on the reference terminal. This is useful when the
output signal needs to be offset to a precise midsupply level. For
example, a voltage source can be tied to the REF1 pin or the
REF2 pin to level-shift the output so that the AD8224 can drive
a single-supply ADC. Pin REFx is protected with ESD diodes
and should not exceed either +VS or −VS by more than 0.5 V.
For best performance, source impedance to the REF terminal
should be kept below 1 Ω. As shown in Figure 56, the reference
terminal, REF, is at one end of a 20 kΩ resistor. Additional
impedance at the REF terminal adds to this 20 kΩ resistor and
results in amplification of the signal connected to the positive
input. The amplification from the additional RREF can be
computed by
The AD8224 is available in an LFCSP package with a hidden
paddle. It is the preferred package for the AD8224. Unlike
chip scale packages where the pad limits routing capability,
this package allows routes and vias directly underneath the
chip, so that the full space savings of the small LFCSP can be
realized. Although the package has no metal in the center of
the part, the manufacturing process does leave a very small
section of exposed metal at each of the package corners, shown
in Figure 58 as well as Figure 69 in the Outline Dimensions
section. This metal is connected to +VS through the part.
Because of a possibility of a short, vias should not be placed
underneath these exposed metal tabs.

The AD8224 4 mm × 4 mm LFCSP is also available with an
exposed thermal pad package version. This pad is connected
internally to +VS. The pad can either be left unconnected or
connected to the positive supply rail. Space between the leads
and thermal pad should be kept as wide as possible for the best
bias current performance. To maintain the AD8224 ultralow
bias current performance, the thermal pad area can be reduced
to extend the gap between the leads and the pad. The exposed
pad package also has exposed lead frame tabs at the corners of
the package, similar to those of the hidden paddle package,
which are internally connected to +VS. Do not place vias
underneath these metal tabs.

AD8224
To preserve maximum pin compatibility with other dual
instrumentation amplifiers, such as the AD8222, leave the pad
unconnected. This can be done by not soldering the paddle at
all or by soldering the part to a landing that is a not connected
to any other net. For high vibration applications, a landing is
recommended.
Because the AD8224 dissipates little power, heat dissipation is
rarely an issue. If improved heat dissipation is desired (for example,
when driving heavy loads), connect the exposed pad to the
positive supply rail. For the best heat dissipation performance,
the positive supply rail should be a plane in the board. See the
Thermal Resistance section for more information.

Errors introduced at the reference terminal feed directly to
the output. Take care to tie the REFx pins to the appropriate
local ground.
Power Supplies
A stable dc voltage should be used to power the instrumentation
amplifier. Noise on the supply pins can adversely affect
performance.
The AD8224 has two positive supply pins (Pin 5 and Pin 16)
and two negative supply pins (Pin 8 and Pin 13). While the part
functions with only one pin from each supply pair connected,
both pins should be connected for specified performance and
optimum reliability.
The AD8224 should be decoupled with 0.1 µF bypass capacitors,
one for each supply. Place the positive supply decoupling
capacitor near Pin 16, and the negative supply decoupling
capacitor near Pin 8. Each supply should also be decoupled with
a 10 µF tantalum capacitor. The tantalum capacitor can be
placed further away from the AD8224 and can generally be
shared by other precision integrated circuits. Figure 59 shows an
example layout.

The AD8224 has a higher CMRR over frequency than typical
in-amps, which gives it greater immunity to disturbances, such
as line noise and its associated harmonics. A well-implemented
layout is required to maintain this high performance. Input
source impedances should be matched closely. Source resistance
should be placed close to the inputs so that it interacts with as
little parasitic capacitance as possible.

Parasitics at the RGx pins can also affect CMRR over frequency.
The PCB should be laid out so that the parasitic capacitances at
each pin match. Traces from the gain setting resistor to the RGx
pins should be kept short to minimize parasitic inductance.

SOLDER WASH
The solder process can leave flux and other contaminants on
the board. When these contaminants are between the AD8224
leads and thermal pad, they can create leakage paths that are
larger than the AD8224 bias currents. A thorough washing
process removes these contaminants and restores the device’s
excellent bias current performance.
INPUT BIAS CURRENT RETURN PATH
The input bias current of the AD8224 must have a return path
to common. When the source, such as a transformer, cannot
provide a return current path, one should be created, as shown
in Figure 60.
INPUT PROTECTION
All terminals of the AD8224 are protected against ESD. ESD
protection is guaranteed to 4 kV (human body model). In addition,
the input structure allows for dc overload conditions a diode
drop above the positive supply and a diode drop below the
negative supply. Voltages beyond a diode drop of the supplies
cause the ESD diodes to conduct and enable current to flow
through the diode. Therefore, an external resistor should be
used in series with each of the inputs to limit current for
voltages beyond the supplies. In either scenario, the AD8224
safely handles a continuous 6 mA current at room temperature.

Mismatched CC capacitors result in mismatched low-pass filters.
The imbalance causes the AD8224 to treat what would have
been a common-mode signal as a differential signal. To reduce
the effect of mismatched external CC capacitors, select a value of
CD greater than 10 times CC. This sets the differential filter
frequency lower than the common-mode frequency.

RF rectification is often a problem in applications where there are
large RF signals. The problem appears as a small dc offset voltage.
The AD8224 by its nature has a 5 pF gate capacitance (CG) at its
inputs. Matched series resistors form a natural low-pass filter that
reduces rectification at high frequency (see Figure 61).

The 3-op amp architecture of the AD8224 applies gain and then
removes the common-mode voltage. Therefore, internal nodes
in the AD8224 experience a combination of both the gained
signal and the common-mode signal. This combined signal can
be limited by the voltage supplies even when the individual input
and output signals are not. Figure 25 through Figure 28 show the
allowable common-mode input voltage ranges for various
output voltages, supply voltages, and gains.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
DRIVING AN ADC
+IN
An instrumentation amplifier is often used in front of an ADC
to provide CMRR and additional conditioning such as a voltage
level shift and gain (see Figure 63). In this example, a 2.7 nF
capacitor and a 500 Ω resistor create an antialiasing filter for the
AD7685. The 2.7 nF capacitor also serves to store and deliver
the necessary charge to the switched capacitor input of the ADC.
The 500 Ω series resistor reduces the burden of the 2.7 nF load
from the amplifier. However, large source impedance in front of
the ADC can degrade the total harmonic distortion (THD).

The differential configuration of the AD8224 has the same
excellent dc precision specifications as the single-ended output
configuration and is recommended for applications in the
frequency range of dc to 1 MHz.
The circuit configuration, outlined in Table 4 and Table 7, refers
to the configuration shown in Figure 64 only. The circuit includes
an RC filter that maintains the stability of the loop.
VDIFF_OUT = V+OUT − V−OUT = (V+IN − V−IN) × G
A common application sets the common-mode output voltage
to the midscale of a differential ADC. In this case, the ADC
reference voltage is sent to the +IN2 terminal, and ground is
connected to the REF2 terminal. This produces a commonmode output voltage of half the ADC reference voltage.
Another differential output topology is shown in Figure 65.
Instead of a second in-amp, ½ of a dual OP2177 op amp creates
the inverted output. Because the OP2177 comes in an MSOP,
this configuration allows the creation of a dual-channel, precision
differential output in-amp with little board area.
Errors from the op amp are common to both outputs and are,
thus, common mode. Errors from mismatched resistors also
create a common-mode dc offset. Because these errors are
common mode, they are likely to be rejected by the next
device in the signal chain.

For applications where THD performance is critical, the series
resistor needs to be small. At worst, a small series resistor can
load the AD8224, potentially causing the output to overshoot
or ring. In such cases, a buffer amplifier, such as the AD8615
should be used after the AD8224 to drive the ADC.

Figure 66. Driving a Differential ADC
The AD8224 can be configured in differential output mode
to drive a differential ADC. Figure 66 illustrates several of the
concepts.
First Antialiasing Filter
The 1 kΩ resistor, 1000 pF capacitor, and 100 pF capacitors in
front of the in-amp form a 76 kHz filter. This is the first of two
antialiasing filters in the circuit and helps to reduce the noise of
the system. The 100 pF capacitors protect against commonmode RFI signals. Note that they are 5% COG/NPO types.
These capacitors match well over time and temperature,
which keeps the CMRR of the system high over frequency.
Second Antialiasing Filter
An 806 Ω resistor and a 2.7 nF capacitor are located between
each AD8224 output and ADC input. These components create
a 73 kHz low-pass filter for another stage of antialiasing
protection.
These four elements also isolate the ADC from loading the
AD8224. The 806 Ω resistor shields the AD8224 from the
switched capacitor input of the ADC, which looks like a timevarying load. The 2.7 nF capacitor provides a charge to the
switched capacitor front end of the ADC. If the application
requires a lower frequency antialiasing filter, increase the value
of the capacitor rather than the resistor.
However, other converters have less robust inputs and may need
the added protection.
Reference
The ADR435 supplies a reference voltage to both the ADC and
the AD8224. Because REF2 on the AD8224 is grounded, the
common-mode output voltage is precisely half the reference
voltage, exactly where it needs to be for the ADC.
DRIVING CABLING
All cables have a certain capacitance per unit length, which
varies widely with cable type. The capacitive load from the cable
may cause peaking in the AD8224 output response. To reduce
peaking, use a resistor between the AD8224 and the cable.
Because cable capacitance and desired output response vary
widely, this resistor is best determined empirically. A good
starting point is 50 Ω.
The AD8224 operates at a low enough frequency that
transmission line effects are rarely an issue; therefore, the
resistor need not match the characteristic impedance of
the cable.
The 806 Ω resistors can also protect an ADC from overvoltages.
Because the AD8224 runs on wider supply voltages than a
typical ADC, there is a possibility of overdriving the ADC. This
is not an issue with a PulSAR® converter, such as the AD7688.
Its input can handle a 130 mA overdrive, which is much higher
than the short-circuit limit of the AD8224.
