GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8205 is a single-supply difference amplifier for amplify-
ing small differential voltages in the presence of large common-
mode voltages. The operating input common-mode voltage
range extends from −2 V to +65 V. The typical single-supply
voltage is 5 V.
The AD8205 is offered in die and packaged form. The operating
temperature range for the die is 25°C higher (up to 150°C) than
the packaged part to enable the user to apply the AD8205 in
high temperature applications.
Excellent dc performance over temperature keeps errors in the
measurement loop to a minimum. Offset drift is typically less
than 15 µV/°C, and gain drift is typically below 30 ppm/°C.
The output offset can be adjusted from 0.05 V to 4.8 V with a
5 V supply by using the V
REF
1 and V
REF
2 pins. With V
REF
1 at-
tached to the V+ pin, and V
REF
2 attached to the GND pin, the
output is set at half scale. Attaching both pins to GND causes
the output to be unipolar, starting near ground. Attaching both
pins to V+ causes the output to be unipolar starting near V+.
Other offsets can be obtained by applying an external voltage to
the V
REF
1 and V
REF
2 pins.

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only and functional operation of the device at these or
any other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
ESD 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 this product features pro-
prietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy electro-
static discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or
loss of functionality.
