Product details
Overview
AMP04ESZ from Analog Devices is a precision single-supply instrumentation amplifier optimized for low-power, high-accuracy signal conditioning in battery-powered and industrial sensor interfaces. It delivers 150 µV max input offset voltage, 700 µA max supply current, and programmable gain from 1 to 1000 via a single external resistor - enabling direct connection to strain gages, RTDs, and thermocouples with zero-in/zero-out operation on +5 V supplies.
For engineers reviewing the AMP04ESZ datasheet, AMP04ESZ pinout, AMP04ESZ application, or AMP04ESZ equivalent, key selection criteria include its rail-to-rail input common-mode range (0 V to VS – 1 V), 700 kHz small-signal bandwidth at G = 1, 0.005% gain nonlinearity, and SO-8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The AMP04ESZ employs a proprietary three-op-amp topology with laser-trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve <150 µV input offset and 30 ppm/°C gain tempco. Its input stage allows true ground-referenced operation - unlike conventional instrumentation amplifiers - by enabling common-mode input down to 0 V while maintaining full accuracy.
Gain is set by a single external resistor (RGAIN) per the equation G = 100 kΩ / RGAIN, and the REF pin supports precise output offset control in both single- and dual-supply configurations. The device operates across –40°C to +85°C and features <5 nA input bias current with 8 pA/°C drift, supporting high-impedance transducer interfacing without external buffering.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +5 V to ±15 V - supports single-supply 5 V systems and dual-supply industrial rails without redesign. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ≤150 µV max - enables sub-µV-level resolution in precision RTD and thermocouple front-ends. |
| Supply Current | ≤700 µA max - extends battery life in portable instrumentation and wireless sensor nodes. |
| Gain Range | 1 to 1000 - set by one external resistor; eliminates complex gain-switching circuitry. |
| Small-Signal Bandwidth | 700 kHz at G = 1 - sufficient for DC–100 Hz sensor signals with margin for anti-alias filtering. |
| Common-Mode Rejection | ≥90 dB at G ≥ 100 - rejects noise from shared grounds in noisy industrial environments. |
| Input Common-Mode Range | 0 V to VS – 1 V - permits direct interface to grounded sensors without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
AMP04ESZ is housed in an 8-lead narrow-body SOIC (SO-8) package with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint (4.9 mm × 3.9 mm × 1.75 mm height). Pin 1 is marked with a dot; pins are numbered counterclockwise.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RGAIN (inverting) | One terminal of external gain-setting resistor; connects to internal 100 kΩ feedback network. |
| 2 | –IN | Inverting input; differential sensing node for bridge-based transducers. |
| 3 | +IN | Non-inverting input; paired with –IN for true differential measurement. |
| 4 | V– | Negative supply pin; tied to ground in single-supply +5 V operation. |
| 5 | REF | Reference input; sets output DC level (e.g., 0 V out at 0 V differential input). |
| 6 | VOUT | Amplified output; swings to within 1 V of V+ under 2 kΩ load. |
| 7 | V+ | Positive supply pin; accepts +5 V (single) or +15 V (dual) supply. |
| 8 | RGAIN (non-inverting) | Second terminal of external gain-setting resistor; completes gain configuration path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Single-resistor gain programming | Eliminates trimming potentiometers and multi-resistor networks - reduces BOM count and layout area. |
| Zero-in/zero-out operation | Delivers 0 V output for 0 V differential input on +5 V supply - simplifies calibration in unipolar systems. |
| Laser-trimmed thin-film resistors | Ensures 0.005% gain nonlinearity and 30 ppm/°C tempco - critical for stable long-term measurements. |
| Input bias current <5 nA | Enables direct connection to high-Z sources (e.g., thermocouples, piezoresistive sensors) without guard buffers. |
| Accessible feedback node (Pin 8) | Allows external capacitor placement for single-pole noise filtering - e.g., 10 Hz cutoff with 0.15 µF. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar instrumentation amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD8421ARZ | Higher bandwidth (10 MHz), lower noise (1.2 nV/√Hz), but requires dual supply or charge pump for true 0 V input; 1.2 mA supply current. | Better suited for high-speed data acquisition (>10 kHz) and AC-coupled sensor interfaces where ground-referenced DC operation is not required. | Select AD8421ARZ when bandwidth >1 MHz and noise <2 nV/√Hz are prioritized over single-supply simplicity and ultra-low power. |
| INA333AIDR | Lower supply current (50 µA), rail-to-rail output, but limited gain range (1–1000 only via internal resistor array; no external RGAIN); 25 µV offset. | Ideal for ultra-low-power, space-constrained designs where fixed-gain flexibility is acceptable and output swing to rail is mandatory. | Choose INA333AIDR for battery-powered wearables or implantables needing <100 µA total system current - but verify gain step granularity meets application needs. |
Compared with AD8421ARZ and INA333AIDR, the AMP04ESZ uniquely balances single-resistor programmability, true 0 V input capability, and sub-mA power in a standard SO-8 package - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, ground-referenced industrial sensor nodes where design simplicity and proven reliability are critical.

FAQ
What supply voltage range does the AMP04ESZ support?
The AMP04ESZ operates from +5 V single supply up to ±15 V dual supply. In single-supply mode, V– is connected to ground and V+ accepts +5 V, enabling direct integration into battery-powered systems. Absolute maximum ratings allow ±18 V supplies, but specified performance is guaranteed only within the –40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range and the stated supply limits. The AMP04ESZ maintains full accuracy across this entire voltage range.
How is gain set on the AMP04ESZ, and what resistor values correspond to common gains?
Gain is set by a single external resistor (RGAIN) connected between Pins 1 and 8, using the formula G = 100 kΩ / RGAIN. For G = 10, use 10 kΩ; for G = 100, use 1 kΩ; for G = 1000, use 100 Ω. The AMP04ESZ datasheet specifies tolerance impact: 0.75% max gain error for G = 1–100, and 0.4% max for G = 1000. Resistor temperature coefficient should be ≤50 ppm/°C to preserve gain stability.
Can the AMP04ESZ interface directly to grounded sensors like RTDs or thermocouples?
Yes - the AMP04ESZ supports true 0 V common-mode input, allowing direct connection to grounded transducers without level-shifting circuitry. Its input stage permits full accuracy from ground to VS – 1 V, and the REF pin enables precise output offset control. This capability is confirmed in the functional block diagram and Application Circuit Figure 11 (RTD amplifier) and Figure 13 (4–20 mA receiver), both using AMP04ESZ with grounded sensor references.
What is the maximum output voltage swing for the AMP04ESZ on a +5 V supply?
On a +5 V supply with V– = 0 V, the AMP04ESZ output swings from ≤2.5 mV above ground (VOL) to ≥4.0 V (VOH) under 2 kΩ load, per the AMP04E specifications table. At room temperature, typical swing is 4.2 V. This 4 V usable range supports 12-bit ADCs with 0–4 V input spans. Output current capability is ±15 mA source/sink, sufficient to drive most precision ADC reference buffers and RC filters.
Does the AMP04ESZ require external components for basic operation, and what are the minimum connections?
Minimum connections for basic operation are: V+ (+5 V), V– (GND), +IN and –IN (sensor inputs), VOUT (to next stage), REF (tied to GND for zero-output at zero-differential input), and RGAIN (e.g., 1 kΩ for G = 100) between Pins 1 and 8. No external capacitors or biasing resistors are required - the AMP04ESZ integrates all precision thin-film resistors internally. Decoupling capacitors (0.1 µF ceramic) at V+ and V– are recommended for noise immunity.
