NOTES
1
A2 gain is trimmed to ±0.5% with a 0.01% 1 kΩ resistor to ground from Pin 4. The overall gain is trimmed to a gain of 400 ±0.5% with the same 1 kΩ resistor. The
gain of A1 (the ratio of overall gain to A2 gain) is used to adjust the overall gain and, therefore, is not trimmed explicitly to 40. Note that the actual gain to a particular application can be modified by the use of an external resistor at Pin 4.
2
The actual output resistance of A1 is only a few ohms, but access to this output, via Pin 3, is always through an 80 k Ω resistor, which is trimmed to ±3%.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD22055 is a single supply difference amplifier consisting
of a precision balanced attenuator, a very low drift preamplifier
and an output buffer amplifier (A1 and A2, respectively, in the
functional block diagram). It has been designed so that small
differential signals, V
tered in the presence of large common-mode voltages, V
, can be accurately amplified and fil-
DM
CM
,
without the use of any other active components.
The common-mode range resistors in this network are trimmed
to match better than one part in 10,000. The resistive attenuator network is situated at the input to the AD22055 (Pins 1
and 8) allowing the common-mode voltage at Pins 1 and 8 to be
two times greater than that which can be tolerated by the actual
input of A1. As a result, the input common-mode range extends
from ground to the power supply voltage.
Two small filter capacitors (not shown) have been included at
the inputs to A1 to minimize the effects of any spurious RF signals present in the signal.
Internal feedback around A1 sets the closed-loop gain of the
preamplifier to 40 V/V from the input pins, and the output of
A1 is connected to Pin 3 via a 80 kΩ resistor, which is trimmed
to ±3% to facilitate the low-pass filtering of the signal. The output buffer A2 has a gain of 10 V/V (using a precise 1 kΩ resistor
from Pin 4 to ground) setting the precalibrated, overall gain of
the AD22055, to 400 V/V. This gain is easily user-configurable.
Overall gain is programmed using the following equation:

The dynamic properties of the AD22055 are optimized for
interfacing to transducers, particularly those with a Wheatstone

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.
Although the AD22055 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may
occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD
precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
