Product details
Overview
LT1997IMS-1#PBF from Analog Devices is a precision, high-voltage, gain-selectable difference amplifier optimized for bidirectional current sensing in industrial power systems. It integrates a matched resistor network and precision op amp to deliver 0.012% gain error (G=10), 109dB CMRR, and input common-mode range from V– to V– + 76V - enabling accurate high-side or low-side shunt monitoring in ±15V or single-supply 3.3V–50V systems.
For engineers reviewing the LT1997IMS-1#PBF datasheet, LT1997IMS-1#PBF pinout, LT1997IMS-1#PBF application, or LT1997IMS-1#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed gain accuracy over temperature, rail-to-rail output swing, shutdown current of 20µA, and MSOP-16 package compatibility with space-constrained industrial front-ends and motor control PCBs.
Technical Context
The LT1997IMS-1#PBF implements a fully integrated difference amplifier architecture with three dedicated noninverting/inverting input pairs (+INA/–INA, +INB/–INB, +INC/–INC) that select fixed gains of 10, 20, or 50 via internal 15k/7.5k/3k resistor networks. Its Over-The-Top® op amp allows operation with input voltages up to V– + 76V independent of V+, supporting wide common-mode voltage translation without external level-shifting circuitry.
Gain configuration is determined solely by which input pair is driven; no external resistors are required. The device maintains <1ppm/°C gain drift and <2ppm nonlinearity due to laser-trimmed thin-film resistors, and achieves 650kHz bandwidth at G=10 while consuming only 350µA quiescent current - balancing speed, precision, and power efficiency for real-time current feedback loops.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Options | Pin-selectable 10, 20, or 50 V/V - enables precise current scaling without external components or layout changes |
| Gain Error (G=10) | ±0.012% max (120ppm) - ensures ≤1.2mV error on 10V full-scale output for high-accuracy shunt measurement |
| CMRR (G=10) | ≥109dB - rejects >316,000:1 common-mode interference in noisy industrial bus environments |
| Input CM Range | V– to V– + 76V - supports direct connection to 60V DC bus or 48V telecom systems without attenuators |
| Supply Range | 3.3V to 50V total - operates from single 5V logic supply or dual ±15V analog rails |

Pinout & Package
LT1997IMS-1#PBF is housed in a 16-lead plastic MSOP package (MS16 variation) with exposed pad connected to V–. Pin 15 is the exposed thermal pad, soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal management and noise immunity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| +INA | Noninverting input for G=10 | Connects to 15k internal resistor; used for standard 10× current sense gain |
| –INA | Inverting input for G=10 | Matches +INA path; forms differential pair with 15k resistors for 10× amplification |

| +INC / –INC | Noninverting/inverting inputs for G=50 | 3k internal resistors support 50× gain for µΩ-level shunt measurements |
| REF1 / REF2 | Reference divider inputs | Set output zero-point; enable offset calibration or bipolar output centering |
| SHDN | Shutdown control | Pull ≥2.5V below V+ to reduce supply current to 20µA; floating = active |
| OUT | Analog output | Rail-to-rail voltage output referenced to V–; drives 10kΩ loads directly |
| V+ / V– | Power supply rails | Support asymmetric supplies (e.g., +5V/0V or +15V/–15V); V– connects to exposed pad |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar difference amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA240A1IDR | Fixed G=20, 80V input range, 120dB CMRR, but no G=10/G=50 options or REF1/REF2 calibration pins | Optimized for unidirectional high-side sensing; lacks flexible gain selection and bipolar reference capability | Select when only 20× gain is needed and highest CMRR is critical; not suitable for multi-gain or offset-calibrated designs |
| AD8479ARZ | Fixed G=1, 600V input range, 120dB CMRR, but 1.5mA supply current and 150kHz bandwidth limit speed | Targeted at ultra-high-voltage isolation replacement; too slow and power-hungry for fast motor control | Select for >100V bus monitoring where bandwidth <200kHz suffices; avoid when gain flexibility or low power is required |
Compared with INA240A1IDR and AD8479ARZ, LT1997IMS-1#PBF uniquely combines pin-selectable 10/20/50 gain, sub-0.015% error, and 650kHz bandwidth in an MSOP-16 package - making it optimal for compact, multi-range industrial current monitors requiring both precision and configurability.

FAQ
What is the maximum input common-mode voltage for LT1997IMS-1#PBF?
The LT1997IMS-1#PBF supports an input common-mode voltage range from V– to V– + 76V, independent of the V+ supply voltage. This allows direct connection to high-voltage buses up to 60V DC without external attenuation, as verified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables for the MS16 package.
Does LT1997IMS-1#PBF require external resistors to set gain?
No, LT1997IMS-1#PBF does not require external resistors to set gain. It integrates laser-trimmed thin-film resistors for three fixed gain options (10, 20, 50 V/V), selected by connecting the signal to the corresponding +INx/–INx pin pair. This eliminates gain-setting errors and board space associated with discrete resistor networks.
What is the guaranteed gain error specification for LT1997IMS-1#PBF at G=10?
The LT1997IMS-1#PBF guarantees a maximum gain error of ±0.012% (120ppm) at G=10 over the full –40°C to +85°C operating temperature range, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table for the MS16 package under "∆G Gain Error" with the "l" symbol denoting full-temperature coverage.
How does the SHDN pin function on LT1997IMS-1#PBF?
The SHDN pin on LT1997IMS-1#PBF places the amplifier in low-power shutdown mode when pulled ≥2.5V below V+ (e.g., to V–), reducing supply current to 20µA max. When left floating or tied to V+, the device operates normally with 350µA typical supply current - enabling simple hardware-controlled power gating.
Is LT1997IMS-1#PBF compatible with single-supply operation?
Yes, LT1997IMS-1#PBF supports single-supply operation from 3.3V to 50V total supply range. It functions with V– = 0V and V+ = 3.3V–50V, and its rail-to-rail output and Over-The-Top® input stage allow input signals referenced to ground while maintaining full common-mode rejection - confirmed in the Applications Information section.
