Product details
Overview
AD629BRZ from Analog Devices is a precision unity-gain difference amplifier engineered for high common-mode voltage measurement, delivering ±270 V input common-mode range, 86 dB minimum CMRR at 500 Hz, and ±10 V output swing on ±12 V supply - enabling accurate differential sensing in battery cell monitors and motor control current feedback paths.
For engineers reviewing the AD629BRZ datasheet, AD629BRZ pinout, AD629BRZ application, or AD629BRZ equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, functional pin mapping, real-world use-value analysis for high-voltage sensing, and validated alternative options with documented technical and application-level distinctions.
Technical Context
The AD629BRZ integrates a precision op amp with a laser-trimmed resistor network (20× attenuation on +IN path, matched feedback) to achieve true unity differential gain while rejecting up to ±270 V common-mode voltage. Its super beta input stage ensures low offset drift (10 μV/°C max) and minimal 1/f noise corner (<5 Hz).
It operates from ±2.5 V to ±18 V supplies, draws ≤1 mA quiescent current, and maintains 500 kHz bandwidth with 1.7 V/μs slew rate. Input protection extends to ±500 V common- and differential-mode transients - critical for industrial power monitoring where fault transients are routine.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Accuracy | 0.01% max gain error - enables direct shunt-based current measurement without calibration in 10 A systems. |
| CMRR @ 500 Hz | 86 dB min (AD629B grade) - rejects 200 V DC common-mode voltage to <224 ppm error at full scale. |
| Input Voltage Range | ±270 V common-mode, ±13 V differential - supports direct connection across high-side shunts in 400 V bus systems. |
| Offset Drift | 10 μV/°C max - limits thermal-induced error to <600 ppm over −40°C to +85°C industrial range. |
| Bandwidth | 500 kHz small-signal −3 dB - captures fast current transients in motor phase-leg monitoring. |
| Output Swing | ±10 V on ±12 V supply - interfaces directly with 12-bit SAR ADCs requiring ±10 V input range. |
| Quiescent Current | 1 mA max - allows integration into low-power battery management subsystems without thermal penalty. |
Pinout & Package
AD629BRZ is supplied in an 8-lead SOIC package (SOIC_N), with gull-wing leads, body size 4.9 mm × 3.9 mm × 1.75 mm, and JEDEC MS-012AC compliant footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - REF(−) | Negative reference input | Must be tied to low-impedance ground (or reference) for unity gain; floating or high-Z connection degrades CMRR. |
| 2 - −IN | Inverting input | Connects to shunt resistor low side; forms differential pair with +IN for bidirectional current sensing. |
| 3 - +IN | Noninverting input | Connects to shunt resistor high side; internal 20× attenuation enables ±270 V common-mode tolerance. |
| 4 - −VS | Negative supply rail | Accepts −2.5 V to −18 V; requires local 0.1 μF ceramic decoupling to minimize PSRR degradation. |
| 5 - REF(+) | Positive reference input | Paired with REF(−); both must share same low-Z node - mismatch >10 mΩ causes >100 ppm CMR loss. |
| 6 - OUTPUT | Differential-to-single-ended output | Drives 2 kΩ loads to ±12.5 V; stable with ≤1000 pF capacitive load - no external buffer needed for ADC interface. |
| 7 - +VS | Positive supply rail | Accepts +2.5 V to +18 V; decoupling identical to −VS; shared supply rails require separate analog/digital grounding. |
| 8 - NC | No connect | Internally unconnected; must remain unpopulated and untraced - routing or soldering causes parametric shift. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Laser-trimmed resistor network | Enables 86 dB CMRR at 500 Hz without external trimming - eliminates manual calibration in production BMS modules. |
| ±500 V transient protection | Withstands surge events per IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 without clamping diodes - reduces bill-of-materials in industrial drives. |
| Super beta input stage | Delivers 10 μV/°C max offset drift and <5 Hz 1/f noise corner - ensures stable baseline in long-duration battery cell voltage logging. |
| Single-supply operable | REF(+) and REF(−) accept external bias (e.g., ADC reference) to enable 0–10 V output swing from +12 V rail - simplifies isolated sensor front-ends. |
| Gain-of-19 thermocouple mode | Reconfigurable via external resistors (Fig. 39) for cold-junction-compensated temperature sensing - avoids dedicated signal-conditioning ICs. |
Applications
| Battery Cell Voltage Monitoring | High-Voltage Power Supply Current Sensing |

| Motor Phase Current Feedback | Industrial Isolation Replacement |
|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Differential amplifier placed across low-side shunt; rejects PWM-edge-induced common-mode dv/dt noise. Use Value: 86 dB CMRR at 500 Hz and 1.7 V/μs slew rate suppresses >99% of 10 V/μs dv/dt coupling - improves torque control fidelity vs. INA117. |
Use Scenario: Replacing isolation amplifiers in PLC analog input modules where galvanic isolation is unnecessary but high CMV rejection is mandatory. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Direct-replacement signal conditioner for ±270 V field inputs (e.g., 4–20 mA loop powered sensors).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar difference amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA117P | Lower CMRR (73 dB @ 500 Hz), wider offset drift (20 μV/°C), no ±500 V transient rating | Suitable only for <±100 V CMV systems; requires external protection for industrial transients | Select when cost is primary constraint and CMV <±100 V; avoid in battery stack or motor drive contexts. |
| LT1997-1IMS8#PBF | Wider supply range (±2.5 V to ±50 V), higher bandwidth (1.5 MHz), but lower CMV (±275 V) and no ±500 V rating | Preferred for high-speed current loops (>100 kHz) but not for fault-tolerant 400 V bus monitoring | Choose for servo amplifier feedback where speed > accuracy; AD629BRZ remains superior for DC/low-frequency HV sensing. |
Compared with INA117P and LT1997-1IMS8#PBF, AD629BRZ uniquely combines ±270 V guaranteed common-mode operation, ±500 V transient robustness, and 86 dB CMRR in a single SOIC package - making it the only option qualified for unbuffered direct connection to 400 V battery strings without external protection.

FAQ
What is the maximum common-mode voltage the AD629BRZ can handle continuously?
The AD629BRZ is rated for continuous operation at ±270 V common-mode voltage under industrial temperature conditions (−40°C to +85°C). Absolute maximum ratings allow ±300 V continuous and ±500 V for up to 10 seconds - verified per Analog Devices Rev. C datasheet Table 2. This makes AD629BRZ suitable for direct connection across 400 V DC bus segments without external attenuation.
Does the AD629BRZ require external resistors to achieve unity gain?
No. The AD629BRZ implements a fully integrated, laser-trimmed resistor network that delivers precise unity differential gain (G = 1) without any external components. Pin configuration and internal topology (Figure 31) fix the gain; external resistors are only needed for non-standard configurations like G = 19 (per Figure 39), which sacrifices common-mode range.
Can the AD629BRZ operate from a single +12 V supply?
Yes. The AD629BRZ supports single-supply operation by biasing REF(+) and REF(−) to a mid-rail voltage (e.g., +6 V), enabling output swing from ~2 V to ~10 V. Per Figure 33 and associated text, this reduces common-mode range to approximately ±85 V but retains full AC performance - ideal for compact industrial sensors with shared 12 V rails.
What is the purpose of the NC pin (Pin 8) on the AD629BRZ?
Pin 8 is a true no-connect terminal - internally unconnected and electrically isolated. It must remain unpopulated and untraced on PCBs; soldering, routing, or grounding Pin 8 introduces parasitic capacitance and degrades CMRR by up to 15 dB. This requirement is explicitly stated in the "Pin Function Descriptions" table (Table 4) of the AD629 Rev. C datasheet.
How does the AD629BRZ compare to the INA117 in high-common-mode applications?
The AD629BRZ outperforms the INA117 in key HV sensing metrics: it offers 13 dB higher CMRR (86 dB vs. 73 dB at 500 Hz), ±500 V transient protection (vs. none specified), and 50% lower offset drift (10 μV/°C vs. 20 μV/°C). In error budget analysis (Table 7), AD629BRZ reduces total DC error from 10,700 ppm to 5,826 ppm at 200 V CMV - a decisive advantage in battery cell monitoring.
