Product details
Overview
LT1102IN8#PBF from Analog Devices (acquired Linear Technology) is a high-speed, precision JFET-input instrumentation amplifier in 8-lead PDIP package with fixed gains of 10 or 100, 30V/μs slew rate, 35MHz gain-bandwidth product, and 3μs 0.01% settling time. It delivers ±150mA output current and is used in multiplexed data acquisition systems requiring fast, low-error amplification of high-impedance bridge and photodetector signals.
For engineers reviewing the LT1102IN8#PBF datasheet, LT1102IN8#PBF pinout, LT1102IN8#PBF application, or LT1102IN8#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 0.05% max gain error at 25°C, 40pA max input bias current at 70°C, ±20V supply range, and validated performance in G=10/G=100 configurations without external gain-setting resistors.
Technical Context
The LT1102IN8#PBF uses a two-op-amp architecture where the second stage is decompensated for G=10 stability, enabling high slew rate and bandwidth. Its FET input structure provides >10¹²Ω common-mode input resistance and eliminates doubling of input bias current with temperature rise.
Common-mode rejection is optimized at G=10 via matched op-amp bandwidths; at G=100, an 18pF capacitor between pins 1 and 2 improves CMRR by 10× from 200Hz to 30kHz. Input protection allows ±40V differential voltage with ±20V supplies and clamps safely outside supply rails.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Slew Rate | 30V/μs at G=10 - enables clean amplification of fast transient signals up to ~3MHz without slewing distortion. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 35MHz - supports stable closed-loop operation at G=10 with usable bandwidth beyond 3MHz. |
| Settling Time (0.01%) | 3μs at G=10 - ensures accurate digitization in 16-bit+ data acquisition systems with <100kSPS throughput. |
| Input Bias Current | 40pA max at 70°C - preserves signal integrity from sensors with >100MΩ source impedance (e.g., piezoresistive bridges). |
| Gain Error | 0.05% max at 25°C - reduces calibration burden in precision measurement systems requiring <0.1% total system gain uncertainty. |
| Supply Voltage Range | ±20V - accommodates industrial sensor interfaces operating across wide analog input ranges without level-shifting. |
| Output Short-Circuit Duration | Indefinite - allows robust operation in test equipment and sensor excitation circuits subject to accidental shorts. |
Pinout & Package
LT1102IN8#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic dual in-line package (PDIP), N8 package variant, with 0.300-inch body width and through-hole mounting compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Inverting Input (–IN) | Differential input node; referenced to internal summing junction; requires matched layout for optimal CMRR. |
| 2 | Non-inverting Input (+IN) | Differential input node; high-impedance JFET input (≥10¹²Ω); sensitive to PCB leakage and guarding. |
| 3 | Reference Input (REF) | DC bias level setting for output common-mode voltage; tied to ground or system reference for single-ended output. |
| 4 | Negative Supply (V–) | Connects to negative rail (e.g., –15V); case-connected in H-package but isolated in N8; decoupling required within 1cm. |
| 5 | Output (OUT) | Amplified, buffered output capable of ±150mA drive into 75Ω loads; requires local 0.1μF ceramic bypass. |
| 6 | Positive Supply (V+) | Connects to positive rail (e.g., +15V); shares thermal path with output stage; separate decoupling from V– recommended. |
| 7 | Gain Select (G=100) | Internally connected to set G=100; open-circuit or floating configures G=10; no external resistor needed. |
| 8 | NC (No Connect) | Not internally bonded; must remain unconnected per datasheet to avoid parasitic coupling or latch-up risk. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed G=10/G=100 architecture | Eliminates external gain-setting resistor tolerance errors and board space; guarantees 0.01% typical gain accuracy. |
| FET input stage | Delivers 40pA max input bias current at 70°C - avoids drift-induced errors in high-resistance sensor interfaces. |
| Indefinite output short-circuit rating | Enables use in sensor excitation and test fixtures without external current-limiting circuitry or thermal shutdown concerns. |
| 18pF pin-1-to-pin-2 compensation | Restores CMRR >80dB from 200Hz–30kHz at G=100, critical for AC-coupled bridge measurements with narrowband filtering. |
| ±40V differential input rating | Withstands overvoltage transients in industrial field wiring without clamp diode conduction or damage - exceeds typical ±13V limits of bipolar-input competitors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar instrumentation amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD8429ARZ | Higher 5.5nV/√Hz input voltage noise (vs. 19nV/√Hz typ), 2.5MHz GBW, 20V/μs slew rate; requires external gain resistors for G≠100. | Better noise performance below 100Hz but slower settling (7.5μs to 0.01%); suited for ultra-low-noise DC-coupled applications, not high-speed multiplexing. | Select AD8429ARZ when sub-10nV/√Hz noise dominates design requirements and speed is secondary. |
| INA128UA | Lower 1.5V/μs slew rate, 120kHz BW at G=100, 100pA input bias current; fixed G=10/100/1000, no pin-1-to-pin-2 compensation option. | Optimized for battery-powered portable instruments; lacks 30V/μs speed and 150mA drive needed for 75Ω video or RF test loads. | Select INA128UA for cost-sensitive, low-power applications where 120kHz bandwidth suffices and output drive <10mA. |
Compared with LT1102IN8#PBF, AD8429ARZ trades speed and drive strength for lower broadband noise, while INA128UA sacrifices bandwidth and output current for lower quiescent power and cost - neither matches the LT1102IN8#PBF's combination of 30V/μs slew rate, 150mA output, and 40pA bias current in a resistorless fixed-gain package.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the LT1102IN8#PBF?
The LT1102IN8#PBF is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C (I-grade). This extended industrial temperature range ensures reliable performance in factory automation, motor control feedback, and outdoor instrumentation where ambient temperatures fluctuate widely. The device maintains specified gain error (0.05% max), input bias current (40pA max), and settling time (3μs to 0.01%) across this full range, as verified in the LT1102 datasheet Section 1.
Does the LT1102IN8#PBF require external components to configure gain?
No, the LT1102IN8#PBF does not require external gain-setting resistors. It offers factory-trimmed fixed gains of 10 or 100: G=10 is the default configuration when pin 7 is left open; G=100 is selected by connecting pin 7 to V– (pin 4). This resistorless architecture eliminates resistor tolerance errors and PCB layout sensitivity, delivering 0.01% typical gain accuracy as confirmed in the LT1102 Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the datasheet.
Can the LT1102IN8#PBF drive a 75Ω video load at 330kHz?
Yes, the LT1102IN8#PBF can drive a 75Ω load to ±10V at 330kHz with G=10, as explicitly demonstrated in the Typical Application diagram TA01 on page 1 of the datasheet. Its ±150mA output current capability and 30V/μs slew rate prevent slew-induced distortion at this frequency and load, making it suitable for analog video signal conditioning and high-speed test equipment interfaces.
How does the LT1102IN8#PBF handle input overvoltage conditions?
The LT1102IN8#PBF withstands ±40V differential input voltage (with ±20V supplies) and clamps safely when inputs exceed the supply rails, thanks to its JFET input stage. Unlike bipolar-input amplifiers that conduct milliampere currents above ±13V, the LT1102IN8#PBF draws only microamps during overvoltage events, preventing damage if input current is limited to 20mA - a key reliability feature for industrial sensor interfaces exposed to ESD and field-wiring faults.
Is pin 8 of the LT1102IN8#PBF functional or should it be left unconnected?
Pin 8 of the LT1102IN8#PBF is designated NC (No Connect) and must remain unconnected. It is not internally bonded and serves no electrical function. Connecting pin 8 to any potential - including ground, supply, or signal traces - risks introducing parasitic coupling, degrading CMRR, or causing unpredictable behavior, as stated in the "Basic Connections" section (page 10) and Package Description (page 12) of the LT1102 datasheet.
