Product details
Overview
LT1996AIDD#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a precision, gain-selectable difference amplifier IC integrating eight matched SiChrome resistors and a low-offset op amp in a single 10-lead DFN package. It supports configurable gains from –117 to 118 with <0.05% gain error, 80dB+ CMRR, rail-to-rail output swing within 40mV of rails, and operates from 2.7V single or ±18V split supply - ideal for high-accuracy differential sensing in medical instrumentation and strain gauge interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the LT1996AIDD#PBF datasheet, LT1996AIDD#PBF pinout, LT1996AIDD#PBF application, or LT1996AIDD#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include verified resistor matching (±0.02% typ), guaranteed CMRR ≥80dB at G=9, input voltage range up to ±60V on P9/M9 pins, and validated performance across –40°C to 85°C with 100µA quiescent current.
Technical Context
The LT1996AIDD#PBF implements a fully integrated difference amplifier architecture where internal 450kΩ-based resistor networks (450k/9, 450k/27, 450k/81, and 450k) are connected to dedicated input pins (P9/P27/P81/M9/M27/M81), enabling precise gain configuration without external components. Its op amp core features 50µV max input offset voltage, 560kHz gain bandwidth product, and rail-to-rail output stage.
Gain is set by pin strapping: connecting specific P/M inputs to VEE, VCC, REF, or floating determines noise gain and signal path topology. Resistor matching drift is <3ppm/°C, and CMRR remains ≥90dB at G=27 over temperature - enabled by monolithic SiChrome resistor integration and laser-trimmed matching.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision difference amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1991CMS#PBF | Lower gain range (–13 to 14); 10-lead MSOP package; higher quiescent current (220µA); no ±60V input capability on P9/M9. | Targeted at lower-gain, cost-sensitive industrial controls where extreme CMRR and overvoltage tolerance are not required. | Select LT1991CMS#PBF only if gain ≤14 suffices and board space allows MSOP; avoid for high-CMRR medical or high-voltage sensor front-ends. |
| AD8271ARMZ | Fixed G=1 difference amplifier; 8-lead SOIC; 120dB min CMRR; 1.2MHz bandwidth; 350µA supply current; no pin-strappable gain. | Optimized for unity-gain, high-bandwidth differential acquisition (e.g., motor phase current sensing), not multi-gain programmability. | Choose AD8271ARMZ when fixed G=1 and maximum CMRR/bandwidth are prioritized over gain flexibility and micropower operation. |
Compared with LT1991CMS#PBF and AD8271ARMZ, the LT1996AIDD#PBF uniquely combines ultra-low power (100µA), wide gain configurability (–117 to 118), ±60V input tolerance, and monolithic resistor matching - making it irreplaceable for portable, multi-range, high-accuracy sensor signal chains requiring minimal BOM count.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the LT1996AIDD#PBF can withstand on its P9 and M9 pins?
The LT1996AIDD#PBF supports ±60V input voltage on P9 and M9 pins when P81 and M81 are grounded and the supply is ±15V. This overvoltage tolerance is enabled by isolation of the 50kΩ resistors from the substrate - allowing direct interface with high-voltage industrial transducers without external protection circuitry. Other inputs (P27, M27, P81, M81) are limited to ±15.5V due to ESD diode clamping.
Does the LT1996AIDD#PBF require external resistors to achieve its specified gain accuracy?
No, the LT1996AIDD#PBF does not require external resistors to achieve its specified gain accuracy. It integrates eight precision-matched SiChrome resistors (450k/9, 450k/27, 450k/81, and 450k) directly into the IC. Gain is set solely by pin strapping (grounding, floating, or connecting P/M inputs to VEE/VCC/REF), and the ±0.02% typical resistor matching ensures <0.05% gain error without calibration or external components.
What is the guaranteed common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) of the LT1996AIDD#PBF across temperature?
The LT1996AIDD#PBF guarantees ≥80dB CMRR at G=9 and ≥90dB CMRR at G=27 over the full –40°C to 85°C operating temperature range. This performance is achieved through monolithic resistor matching with <3ppm/°C temperature coefficient and laser-trimmed layout symmetry - ensuring stable rejection of power supply noise and electromagnetic interference in automotive and industrial environments.
Can the LT1996AIDD#PBF operate from a single 3.3V supply?
Yes, the LT1996AIDD#PBF operates from a single 3.3V supply (VCC = 3.3V, VEE = 0V). Its minimum supply voltage is 2.7V, and the rail-to-rail output swings to within 40mV of both rails. When configured as a noninverting amplifier with REF tied to 1.65V, it delivers full-scale output from 0.04V to 3.26V - making it suitable for low-voltage IoT sensor nodes and portable instrumentation.
How does the LT1996AIDD#PBF achieve 100µA quiescent current while maintaining 560kHz gain bandwidth?
The LT1996AIDD#PBF achieves 100µA quiescent current with 560kHz gain bandwidth through optimized op amp biasing and low-power SiChrome resistor design. The internal op amp uses a carefully balanced transconductance-to-capacitance ratio, and the resistor network is sized to minimize Johnson noise contribution while maintaining matching. This enables micropower operation without sacrificing bandwidth - a key differentiator versus conventional precision op amps that trade off speed for current consumption.
