Product details
Overview
LT1167ACS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a precision instrumentation amplifier requiring only one external resistor to set gains from 1 to 10,000. It delivers 7.5 nV/√Hz input voltage noise at 1 kHz, 0.3 μV/°C max input offset drift, and 90 dB CMRR at G = 1 - enabling high-accuracy bridge sensor conditioning in industrial and medical instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LT1167ACS8#TRPBF datasheet, LT1167ACS8#TRPBF pinout, LT1167ACS8#TRPBF application, or LT1167ACS8#TRPBF equivalent, this page provides verified gain-setting behavior, ESD-hardened input performance (13 kV HBM), single-supply barometer interface capability, and SO-8 package thermal characteristics for PCB layout and system-level signal integrity planning.
Technical Context
The LT1167ACS8#TRPBF implements a laser-trimmed, three-op-amp topology with superbeta NPN input transistors achieving 350 pA max input bias current and 200 GΩ input resistance. Its gain equation G = 1 + (49.4 kΩ / RG) is realized via matched internal 24.7 kΩ resistors trimmed to 0.05% accuracy at G = 100.
It supports rail-to-rail output swing within ±1.2 V of supplies (±2.3 V to ±18 V), handles capacitive loads up to 1000 pF without instability, and maintains 0.08% max gain error at G = 10 across 0°C to 70°C - critical for strain gauge and thermocouple amplification where thermal tracking dominates error budgets.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Range | 1 to 10,000 set by single external resistor RG - eliminates multi-resistor matching errors in discrete IA designs. |
| Input Offset Drift | 0.3 μV/°C max - ensures <10 μV total drift over 40°C industrial ambient range, preserving DC accuracy in load cell systems. |
| CMRR at G = 1 | 90 dB min - rejects common-mode interference from 50/60 Hz mains or motor noise in noisy factory environments. |
| Supply Current | 1.3 mA max - enables low-power operation in battery-powered portable medical devices and handheld test equipment. |
| Input Voltage Noise | 7.5 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - supports high-resolution measurement of microvolt-level signals from RTDs and thermopiles. |
| ESD Rating | 13 kV HBM - withstands handling and board-level ESD events without protection diodes or external clamping. |
| Operating Temp | 0°C to 70°C - qualified for commercial/industrial control systems where extended temperature testing is not required. |
Pinout & Package
LT1167ACS8#TRPBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic SO (S8) package with 1.27 mm pitch, JEDEC MS-012AC compliant, and rated θJA = 190°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (RG) | Gain Set Resistor Connection | Connects external resistor RG to program gain per G = 1 + 49.4kΩ/RG; high-impedance node sensitive to leakage. |
| 2 (–IN) | Inverting Input | Differential input terminal; requires matched impedance path to REF or ground for bias current return. |
| 3 (+IN) | Non-Inverting Input | Differential input terminal; input resistance >200 GΩ enables direct connection to high-Z sensors like piezoresistive bridges. |
| 4 (–VS) | Negative Supply Rail | Accepts –2.3 V to –18 V; must be decoupled locally to suppress PSRR degradation above 100 kHz. |
| 5 (REF) | Reference Output Reference | Output is referenced to this pin; series resistance >2 Ω degrades CMRR to ≤80 dB and adds gain error. |
| 6 (OUTPUT) | Amplified Single-Ended Output | Drives loads ≥2 kΩ; stable with up to 1000 pF capacitance - supports direct connection to ADC inputs or long cables. |
| 7 (+VS) | Positive Supply Rail | Accepts +2.3 V to +18 V; dual-supply or single-supply operation supported when REF tied to –VS. |
| 8 (RG) | Gain Set Resistor Connection | Second terminal of external RG; forms Kelvin connection with Pin 1 to eliminate PCB trace resistance error. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Laser-trimmed gain resistors | 24.7 kΩ internal resistors trimmed to 0.05% at G = 100 - guarantees accurate gain setting without calibration. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar instrumentation amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD8421ARMZ | Higher bandwidth (10 MHz vs 1 MHz at G = 1), lower noise (3.5 nV/√Hz), but requires dual supply and has no IEC 1000-4-2 certification. | Preferred for high-speed data acquisition; unsuitable for cost-sensitive industrial sensors needing ESD certification. | Select AD8421ARMZ when bandwidth >1 MHz and noise <4 nV/√Hz are mandatory; verify PCB layout for higher-frequency stability. |
| INA128UA | Lower max gain (1000 vs 10,000), higher input bias current (500 pA), but offers better PSRR (130 dB vs 105 dB at G = 1). | Better suited for single-supply, low-voltage (±2.5 V) systems where ultra-high gain is unnecessary. | Choose INA128UA for battery-powered portable instruments with tight supply constraints and moderate gain needs. |
Compared with AD8421ARMZ and INA128UA, the LT1167ACS8#TRPBF uniquely balances ultra-high gain programmability (1–10,000), certified ESD robustness, and low-cost SO-8 packaging - making it optimal for industrial bridge sensor interfaces where gain flexibility and field reliability outweigh raw speed or ultra-low noise.

FAQ
What is the maximum gain achievable with LT1167ACS8#TRPBF and how is it set?
The LT1167ACS8#TRPBF supports gains from 1 to 10,000, set using a single external resistor RG connected between Pins 1 and 8. The relationship is G = 1 + (49.4 kΩ / RG); for G = 10,000, RG = 4.94 Ω. At high gains, input-referred noise is dominated by the superbeta NPN input transistors, maintaining 7.5 nV/√Hz performance.
Does LT1167ACS8#TRPBF support single-supply operation?
Yes, LT1167ACS8#TRPBF supports single-supply operation when the REF pin (Pin 5) is tied to the negative supply rail (Pin 4). This configuration requires the input common-mode voltage to remain ≥2.5 V above ground and the output to stay within the specified swing limits - as demonstrated in the barometer application circuit on page 1 of the datasheet.
What is the ESD rating of LT1167ACS8#TRPBF and is external protection needed?
LT1167ACS8#TRPBF is rated for 13 kV HBM ESD protection on all pins. With two external 5 kΩ resistors, it passes IEC 1000-4-2 Level 4 (8 kV contact, 15 kV air discharge). No external TVS diodes or series resistors are required for standard industrial handling - simplifying BOM and layout for ruggedized sensor nodes.
How does LT1167ACS8#TRPBF handle capacitive loads on its output?
LT1167ACS8#TRPBF is internally compensated to remain stable with output capacitive loads up to 1000 pF across all gain settings. This allows direct connection to ADC input capacitors, long PCB traces, or shielded cables without external isolation resistors - preserving signal integrity in distributed sensor systems.
What is the guaranteed operating temperature range for LT1167ACS8#TRPBF?
LT1167ACS8#TRPBF is specified for 0°C to 70°C operation (AC grade). Key parameters including gain error (0.08% max at G = 10), input offset drift (0.3 μV/°C), and CMRR (90 dB min at G = 1) are guaranteed across this range. For extended temperature operation, the AI-grade variant LT1167AIS8#TRPBF (–40°C to 85°C) is available.
