Product details
Overview
LT1167AIS8-1#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a precision instrumentation amplifier with single-resistor gain programming (G = 1 to 10,000), 0.3 μV/°C max input offset drift, 90 dB min CMRR at G = 1, and ±2.3V to ±18V dual-supply operation. It delivers 7.5 nV/√Hz input voltage noise at 1 kHz and supports bridge sensor amplification in industrial pressure transducers.
For engineers reviewing the LT1167AIS8-1#PBF datasheet, LT1167AIS8-1#PBF pinout, LT1167AIS8-1#PBF application, or LT1167AIS8-1#PBF equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (8-pin SO), confirmed thermal grade (–40°C to +85°C), validated IEC 1000-4-2 Level 4 ESD compliance with external 5 kΩ resistors, and real-world settling time (14 μs to 0.01% for 10 V step at G ≤ 100).
Technical Context
The LT1167AIS8-1#PBF implements a three-op-amp instrumentation architecture with laser-trimmed 24.7 kΩ internal resistors and superbeta NPN input transistors. Its gain equation G = 1 + (49.4 kΩ/RG) enables precise gain setting via one external resistor while maintaining <0.08% gain error at G = 10.
It features a differential preamp stage that impresses input voltage across RG, feeding a unity-gain difference amplifier. Input bias current remains ≤350 pA across –40°C to +85°C, and output drives capacitive loads up to 1000 pF without instability - critical for sensor signal chains with long cables or ADC input filters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Range | 1 to 10,000 set by single external resistor RG - eliminates multi-resistor networks and matching errors. |
| Input Offset Drift | 0.3 μV/°C max - ensures stable DC accuracy over industrial temperature range without recalibration. |
| CMRR | 90 dB min at G = 1 (1 kΩ source imbalance) - rejects common-mode noise from bridge sensors and motor drives. |
| Supply Current | 1.3 mA max - enables low-power battery-operated instrumentation without sacrificing precision. |
| Input Voltage Noise | 7.5 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - preserves signal integrity in low-level thermocouple and strain gauge measurements. |
| ESD Rating | 13 kV HBM - survives handling and system-level transients when used with two 5 kΩ external resistors per IEC 1000-4-2 Level 4. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for automotive under-hood, industrial PLC, and outdoor environmental monitoring. |
Pinout & Package
LT1167AIS8-1#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic SO (S8) package with standard SOIC-8 footprint (5.0 mm × 4.0 mm, 1.27 mm pitch). Thermal resistance 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 + (49.4 kΩ/RG); open-circuit disables amplifier. |
| 2 (–IN) | Inverting Input | Differential input node; requires matched impedance path to ground for optimal CMRR and bias current return. |
| 3 (+IN) | Non-Inverting Input | Differential input node; high-Z (200 GΩ) input enables direct connection to high-impedance sensors. |
| 4 (–VS) | Negative Supply Rail | Accepts –2.3V to –18V; supplies input stage and output driver; must be decoupled locally. |
| 5 (REF) | Reference Output Reference | Output voltage is referenced to this pin; series resistance degrades CMRR and gain accuracy. |
| 6 (OUTPUT) | Amplified Single-Ended Output | Drives loads ≥2 kΩ; stable with up to 1000 pF capacitance; swing is –VS + 1.4 V to +VS – 1.3 V. |
| 7 (+VS) | Positive Supply Rail | Accepts +2.3V to +18V; supplies input stage and output driver; must be decoupled locally. |
| 8 (RG) | Gain Set Resistor Connection | Second terminal of external RG; forms Kelvin connection to minimize parasitic resistance effects. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Laser-trimmed input offset | 40 μV max (G = 10) - eliminates need for external trimming in most precision sensor interfaces. |
| Single-supply compatible REF pin | Operates with REF tied to –VS - enables true single-supply operation down to +4.6 V total supply. |
| High CMRR vs. gain | 126 dB at G = 1000 - maintains rejection of power-line interference even at high gains. |
| Low 0.1–10 Hz noise | 0.28 μVP-P at G = 1 - critical for DC-stable medical and weigh-scale applications. |
| Wide supply range | ±2.3V to ±18V - supports both low-voltage portable systems and high-dynamic-range industrial rails. |
| IEC 1000-4-2 Level 4 ready | Passes 8 kV contact / 15 kV air discharge with two 5 kΩ resistors - reduces system-level ESD design effort. |

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 (12 MHz vs. 1 MHz at G = 1), lower noise (3.5 nV/√Hz), but requires dual external resistors for gain setting. | Better suited for high-speed data acquisition; less ideal for ultra-low-power or cost-sensitive bridge sensor nodes. | Select AD8421ARMZ when bandwidth >1 MHz or noise <5 nV/√Hz is required; verify layout for dual-resistor matching. |
| INA128UA | Lower supply current (700 μA vs. 1.3 mA), wider temp range (–55°C to +125°C), but higher offset drift (1 μV/°C) and no IEC 1000-4-2 qualification. | Preferred for aerospace or extended-temperature environments where ESD robustness is secondary. | Choose INA128UA for extreme temperature operation or ultra-low quiescent power; accept higher drift and reduced ESD margin. |
Compared with AD8421ARMZ and INA128UA, the LT1167AIS8-1#PBF uniquely balances single-resistor simplicity, industrial-grade ESD immunity, and sub-μV/°C drift - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, high-reliability sensor signal chains where layout efficiency and field robustness are prioritized over raw speed or ultra-low power.

FAQ
What is the maximum gain achievable with LT1167AIS8-1#PBF?
The LT1167AIS8-1#PBF supports gains from 1 to 10,000 using a single external resistor RG, calculated as G = 1 + (49.4 kΩ/RG). At G = 10,000, RG = 4.94 Ω; practical minimum RG is ~5 Ω due to PCB trace resistance and tolerance. Bandwidth drops to 12 kHz at G = 1000, limiting high-gain AC response.
Does LT1167AIS8-1#PBF require external offset trimming?
No. The LT1167AIS8-1#PBF is laser trimmed for input offset voltage (40 μV max at G = 10) and drift (0.3 μV/°C), eliminating external trimming in most applications. An optional offset adjust circuit using an op amp buffer on the REF pin is documented for cases demanding sub-10 μV RTI offset.
Can LT1167AIS8-1#PBF operate from a single 5V supply?
Yes. The LT1167AIS8-1#PBF supports single-supply operation: tie REF to –VS (pin 4), ensure one input stays ≥2.5 V above ground, and keep output within –VS + 1.4 V to +VS – 1.3 V. With +5V and GND rails, output swings from 1.4 V to 3.7 V - sufficient for many 3.3 V ADC interfaces.
How does LT1167AIS8-1#PBF achieve IEC 1000-4-2 Level 4 ESD compliance?
The LT1167AIS8-1#PBF passes IEC 1000-4-2 Level 4 (8 kV contact, 15 kV air) only when two 5 kΩ resistors are placed in series with each input (±IN) before the IC. These resistors limit ESD current into the internal protection diodes and are explicitly validated in the datasheet - no additional external TVS or clamping is required.
What is the purpose of the dual RG pins (pins 1 and 8) on LT1167AIS8-1#PBF?
Pins 1 and 8 are Kelvin connections for the external gain-setting resistor RG. This 4-terminal configuration eliminates errors from PCB trace resistance and solder joint variability, ensuring accurate gain setting - especially critical at high gains (G > 100) where RG values drop below 500 Ω.
