Product details
Overview
AD8223BRM from Analog Devices is a single-supply, rail-to-rail output instrumentation amplifier with gain set by one external resistor (5–1000 V/V), 30 nV/√Hz input-referred voltage noise at 1 kHz (G = 1000), 25 nA max input bias current, and operation from +3 V to +24 V supply. It enables precision low-power signal conditioning in thermocouple amplifiers and battery-powered medical sensors.
For engineers reviewing the AD8223BRM datasheet, AD8223BRM pinout, AD8223BRM application, or AD8223BRM equivalent, key selection criteria include its 150 mV below negative rail input common-mode range, 500 μA max quiescent current, ±40°C to +85°C operating temperature, and compatibility with SOIC-R and MSOP-RM packages for space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The AD8223BRM implements a modified 3-op-amp architecture with PNP input buffers enabling input voltages down to 150 mV below the negative rail and rail-to-rail output swing. Its gain stage uses an external RG resistor across pins 1 and 8 to set gain per G = 5 + (80 kΩ/RG), while the third stage provides fixed ×5 differential gain and common-mode rejection.
Internal ESD-protected clamping diodes allow safe overvoltage tolerance of ±0.3 V beyond supplies on all pins. The REF pin accepts an external reference voltage (−VS to +VS) to level-shift the output, with <5 Ω source impedance recommended to preserve CMRR performance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Range | 5 to 1000 V/V - set precisely via single external resistor; no resistor yields G = 5 with minimal drift. |
| Input Voltage Range | (−VS) − 0.15 V to (+VS) − 1.5 V - supports signals 150 mV below ground on single supply. |
| Output Swing | +0.01 V to (+VS) − 0.5 V (RL = 10 kΩ) - rail-to-rail capability maximizes dynamic range at low supply voltages. |
| Supply Current | 500 μA max (TA = 25°C, +VS = +5 V) - enables 1.5 mW power consumption at 3 V, ideal for battery operation. |
| CMRR | 96 dB typical (G = 100, DC–60 Hz) - high rejection ensures accuracy in noisy industrial transducer interfaces. |
| Input Noise | 30 nV/√Hz @ 1 kHz (G = 1000), 0.6 μV p-p (0.1–10 Hz) - low RTI noise preserves SNR in low-level sensor amplification. |
| Bandwidth | 5 kHz (G = 1000), 125 kHz (G = 5) - sufficient for thermocouple, strain gauge, and process control signals. |
Pinout & Package
AD8223BRM is packaged in an 8-lead MSOP (RM) with 0.65 mm pitch, thermal resistance θJA = 200°C/W, and rated for −40°C to +85°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (−RG) | Gain resistor terminal | Connects to one end of external RG; forms gain-setting network with internal 80 kΩ reference. |
| 2 (−IN) | Negative input | Differential input node; accepts signals down to (−VS) − 0.15 V with PNP input stage. |
| 3 (+IN) | Positive input | Differential input node; matched impedance and bias current to −IN for optimal CMRR. |
| 4 (−VS) | Negative supply | Ground reference on single supply; −2 V to −12 V on dual supply; must be decoupled with 0.1 µF + 10 µF. |
| 5 (REF) | Reference input | Output offset reference point; drives ADC mid-supply or level-shifted analog chains; requires low-impedance source. |
| 6 (OUT) | Amplified output | Rail-to-rail voltage output referenced to REF; capable of sourcing/sinking >1 mA into 10 kΩ load. |
| 7 (+VS) | Positive supply | +3 V to +24 V (single) or +2 V to +12 V (dual); decoupling critical for PSRR and noise performance. |
| 8 (+RG) | Gain resistor terminal | Connects to other end of external RG; completes gain-setting path with pin 1 and internal resistors. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Single-resistor gain programming | Eliminates trimming and matching components; gain error as low as 0.02% (G = 10) without external resistor tolerance effects. |
| Rail-to-rail output on single supply | Enables full-scale utilization of 3 V–5 V ADCs without level-shifting circuitry or dual supplies. |
| Input common-mode range extended below ground | Supports direct connection to grounded thermocouples or bridge sensors without level-shifting bias networks. |
| Integrated input protection diodes | Withstands ±0.3 V overvoltage relative to supplies during power-up, power-down, or fault conditions-no external clamps needed. |
| Low quiescent current (500 μA) | Reduces self-heating and extends battery life in portable ECG monitors, wearable sensors, and remote data loggers. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar instrumentation amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD8221ARMZ | Higher precision (25 μV max VOS, 0.3 μV/°C TC), wider bandwidth (1.3 MHz @ G = 10), but higher supply current (1.2 mA) and no rail-to-rail output. | Better suited for high-speed, high-accuracy lab equipment; not optimal for battery-powered designs requiring rail-to-rail swing. | Select AD8221ARMZ when absolute offset and drift dominate over power and output swing requirements. |
| INA333AIDRGT | Zero-drift architecture (0.02 μV/°C offset drift), lower noise (12 nV/√Hz), but limited common-mode range (to −0.1 V on 3 V supply) and no sub-ground input capability. | Ideal for precision weigh scales and strain gauges where zero-drift matters more than negative common-mode support. | Choose INA333AIDRGT only if sub-ground input is unnecessary and long-term DC stability is critical. |
Compared with AD8223BRM, AD8221ARMZ trades power efficiency and rail-to-rail output for higher speed and lower drift, while INA333AIDRGT sacrifices sub-ground input range to achieve near-zero offset drift-making AD8223BRM uniquely balanced for low-power, wide common-mode industrial and medical sensing.

FAQ
What supply voltage range does the AD8223BRM support?
The AD8223BRM operates from a single supply of +3 V to +24 V or dual supplies of ±2 V to ±12 V. At +3 V, it delivers rail-to-rail output swing and consumes only 500 μA, making AD8223BRM ideal for battery-powered applications such as portable ECG monitors and wireless sensor nodes where supply headroom is constrained.
How is gain set on the AD8223BRM?
Gain on the AD8223BRM is set using a single external resistor (RG) connected between pins 1 (−RG) and 8 (+RG), following G = 5 + (80 kΩ/RG). With no external resistor, AD8223BRM defaults to G = 5 with minimal gain error (0.02%) and drift, eliminating calibration overhead in cost-sensitive designs like industrial transducer interfaces.
Does the AD8223BRM support inputs below ground?
Yes, the AD8223BRM supports input common-mode voltages down to (−VS) − 0.15 V - i.e., 150 mV below the negative supply rail. This enables direct connection to grounded thermocouples or bridge sensors without external biasing, a capability confirmed in the AD8223BRM's specifications table and theory-of-operation section.
What is the purpose of the REF pin on the AD8223BRM?
The REF pin on the AD8223BRM sets the output voltage reference level: VOUT = G(VIN+ − VIN−) + VREF. It allows level-shifting the output to match ADC input ranges (e.g., 0.5 V to 4.5 V) or reject common-mode offsets. For best CMRR, the AD8223BRM REF source impedance must remain below 5 Ω, as specified in the pin function descriptions.
Can the AD8223BRM drive low-impedance loads directly?
The AD8223BRM is specified to drive loads ≥10 kΩ. Driving lower impedances (e.g., <1 kΩ) causes output swing compression and increased distortion. For such cases, the AD8223BRM datasheet recommends buffering with a precision op amp like OP113. Direct loading below 10 kΩ is not supported per AD8223BRM's output voltage swing vs. current characterization.
