back-to-back diodes limiting the maximum voltage
difference between these nodes. If even on a transient
basis (e.g., supply spikes) a voltage difference of over
0.5 V exists between A

operation of the system as shown in the application

below for details.) When enabled, it prevents gain
changes from occurring until the differential output
signal waveform is within ±5mV of zero. It is possible
that in unusual cases where significant low-frequency

address via the GPO[2:0] pins. These pins are typi-
cally connected to pull-up and pull-down resistors to
establish the chip address, and serve as general pur-
pose outputs during runtime. THAT Corporation
intends to offer features in future versions of the
5171 that will be configured via a pull up resistor on
GPO3. Thus, GPO3 should be pulled low by a resis-
tor of 100 kΩ or less on early designs before these
new features become available.

gain setting is not equal to the value in the GAIN reg-
ister, i.e. when a gain update is pending a zero-
crossing. This pin may be monitored by the host
microcontroller (e.g. connected to an external inter-
rupt pin) in order to hold off a new gain command
until the previous gain command has been executed.
goes low when a pending gain change has been made.
If finer gain steps are implemented in subsequent
processing (typically via DSP) this signal can be used
to assist in synchronizing subsequent gain changes
with those implemented by the 5171. Note, of course,
that latency in A/D conversion must be considered
when attempting to synchronize digital with analog
gain updates.
