6.4.1
Figure 6-3 shows a circuit that measures the current I
It benefits from changing the gain on the PGA. Just as
a hand-held multimeter uses different measurement
ranges to obtain the best results, this circuit makes it
easy to set a high gain for small signals and a low gain
for large signals. As a result, the required dynamic
range at the PGA’s output is less than at its input (by up
to 30 dB).

Current Measurement Circuit.
6.4.2
Figure 6-4 shows a circuit using an MCP6021 at a gain
of +10 in front of an MCP6S21. This changes the over-
all gain range to +10 V/V to +320 V/V (from +1 V/V to
+32 V/V).
FIGURE 6-4:
Range.
It is also easy to shift the gain range to lower gains (see
Figure 6-6). The MCP6021 acts as a unity gain buffer,
and the resistive voltage divider shifts the gain range
down to +0.1 V/V to +3.2 V/V (from +1 V/V to +32 V/V).

6.4.3
Figure 6-6 gives a +1 V/V to +1024 V/V gain range,
which is much greater than the range for a single PGA
(+1 V/V to +32 V/V). The first PGA provides input mul-
tiplexing capability, while the second PGA only needs
one input. These devices can be daisy chained
(Section 5.3, “Daisy Chain Configuration”).

6.4.4
The multiple channel PGAs (except the MCP6S21)
allow the user to select which sensor appears on the
output (see Figure 6-7). These devices can also
change the gain to optimize performance for each
sensor.
