amplifier A3. The common mode voltage is removed by
A3, resulting in a single-ended output voltage referenced
to the voltage on the REF pin. The resulting gain equation
is:
solving for the gain set resistor gives:

Input and Output Offset Voltage
The offset voltage of the LT1168 has two components: the
output offset and the input offset. The total offset voltage
referred to the input (RTI) is found by dividing the output
offset by the programmed gain (G) and adding it to the
input offset. At high gains the input offset voltage domi-
nates, whereas at low gains the output offset voltage
dominates. The total offset voltage is:

voltage of the LT1168 (Pin 6) is referenced to the voltage
on the reference terminal (Pin 5). Resistance in series
with the REF pin must be minimized for best common
mode rejection. For example, a 6Ω resistance from the
REF pin to ground will not only increase the gain error by
0.02% but will lower the CMRR to 80dB.
Input Voltage Range
The input voltage range for the LT1168 is specified in the
data sheet at 1.4V below the positive supply to 1.9V
above the negative supply for a gain of one. As the gain
increases the input voltage range decreases. This is due
to the IR drop across the internal gain resistors R1 and
R2 in Figure 1. For the unity gain condition there is no IR
drop across the gain resistors R1 and R2, the output of
the GM amplifiers is just the differential input voltage at
Pin 2 and Pin 3 (level shifted by one V
When a gain resistor is connected across Pins 1 and 8,
the output swing of the GM cells is now the differential
input voltage (level shifted by V
voltage times the gain (ratio of the internal gain resistors
to the external gain resistor across Pins 1 and 8). To
calculate how close to the positive rail the input (V
swing for a gain of 2 and a maximum expected output
swing of 10V, use the following equation:
Substituting yields:
below the positive supply or 12V for a 15V supply. To
calculate how far above the negative supply the input can
swing for a gain of 10 with a maximum expected output
swing of –10V, the equation for the negative case is:
Substituting yields:
above the negative supply or – 9V for a negative supply
voltage of –15V. Figures 2 and 3 are for the positive
common mode and negative common mode cases
respectively.
