Product details
Overview
LT6370HS8E#PBF from Analog Devices is a high-precision, gain-programmable instrumentation amplifier in an 8-lead SOIC package (S8E), delivering 25µV max input offset voltage, 0.3µV/°C max drift, 94dB min DC CMRR at G=1, and 3.1MHz bandwidth - designed for precision bridge and thermocouple signal conditioning in industrial sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the LT6370HS8E#PBF datasheet, LT6370HS8E#PBF pinout, LT6370HS8E#PBF application, or LT6370HS8E#PBF equivalent, this page provides verified DC accuracy specs, thermal stability data, EMI-filtered input architecture, and H-grade (–40°C to 125°C) qualification essential for harsh-environment transducer systems.
Technical Context
The LT6370HS8E#PBF implements an enhanced three-op-amp topology with laser-trimmed 12.1kΩ internal resistors and proprietary bipolar process technology to achieve ultra-low drift and long-term stability. Its gain is set by a single external resistor RG per G = 1 + 24.2kΩ/RG, enabling precise programmability from 1 to >1000.
Integrated RFI filters on both inputs maintain DC accuracy under RF interference, while the REF pin supports differential-to-single-ended conversion with ±10V reference gain. The device operates from ±2.375V to ±17.5V supplies and guarantees performance across –40°C to 125°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage | 25µV max - enables detection of sub-millivolt signals without calibration drift over temperature. |
| Offset Drift | 0.3µV/°C max - ensures <±0.5µV total drift over full –40°C to 125°C range for stable long-term measurements. |
| DC CMRR | 94dB min at G=1 - rejects common-mode noise from unshielded industrial wiring and ground loops. |
| Bandwidth | 3.1MHz at G=1 - supports fast settling (<5.8µs to 0.0015%) in multiplexed DAQ systems. |
| Supply Range | ±2.375V to ±17.5V - accommodates legacy ±15V rails and low-voltage ±5V systems without level-shifting. |
| Input Bias Current | 400pA max - preserves signal integrity with high-impedance sources like piezoresistive bridges and thermocouples. |
| EMI Filtering | Integrated on-chip RFI filters - eliminates need for external RC networks in EN 61000-4-3 compliant designs. |
Pinout & Package
LT6370HS8E#PBF uses the industry-standard 8-lead plastic SOIC (S8E) package with exposed pad floating or connected to V+, θJA = 33°C/W, and conventional instrumentation amplifier pinout.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| –RG (Pin 1) | Gain-setting resistor terminal | Connects to one end of external RG; sets gain via G = 1 + 24.2kΩ/RG with 0.08% accuracy at G=100. |
| –IN (Pin 2) | Negative input | High-impedance (225GΩ) differential input node; accepts balanced sensor signals with minimal loading. |
| +IN (Pin 3) | Positive input | High-impedance (225GΩ) differential input node; paired with –IN for bridge/thermocouple sensing. |
| V– (Pin 4) | Negative supply rail | Requires local 0.1µF bypass capacitor to ground; supports operation down to –2.375V. |
| REF (Pin 5) | Output reference | Sets output common-mode level; supports ±10V reference gain with 1ppm/V PSRR rejection. |
| OUTPUT (Pin 6) | Differential-to-single-ended output | Delivers amplified, referenced output; drives 2kΩ loads with ±14.9V swing at ±15V supplies. |
| V+ (Pin 7) | Positive supply rail | Requires local 0.1µF bypass capacitor to ground; supports operation up to +17.5V. |
| +RG (Pin 8) | Gain-setting resistor terminal | Connects to other end of external RG; completes gain-setting path with –RG. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Laser-trimmed precision | Guarantees 25µV VOS and 0.3µV/°C drift via on-die trimming - eliminates post-manufacture calibration. |
| Single-resistor gain programming | G = 1 to >1000 set by one external RG - reduces BOM count and layout complexity vs multi-resistor alternatives. |
| Integrated EMI filtering | On-chip RFI filters on +IN/–IN pins - maintains 94dB CMRR in noisy factory environments without external components. |
| H-grade temperature rating | Specified from –40°C to 125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, motor control, and industrial power electronics. |
| Low-noise architecture | 0.2µVP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz) and 7nV/√Hz @ 1kHz - preserves SNR in µV-level strain gauge and thermocouple applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar instrumentation amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD8421ARZ | Higher 35nV/√Hz noise, 100µV max VOS, no integrated EMI filter, 10-lead MSOP only | Lower precision; requires external RFI filtering for EMC compliance | Choose AD8421ARZ only when cost sensitivity outweighs drift/noise requirements and PCB space allows added filtering. |

FAQ
What is the maximum gain achievable with LT6370HS8E#PBF?
The LT6370HS8E#PBF supports gains from 1 to >1000 using a single external resistor RG per G = 1 + 24.2kΩ/RG. At G=1000, RG = 24.3Ω; however, PCB trace resistance becomes significant below ~100Ω, so practical maximum gain is ~500 for production designs. The LT6370HS8E#PBF datasheet confirms this limit in Note 2.
Does LT6370HS8E#PBF require external capacitors for stability?
Yes - LT6370HS8E#PBF requires 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitors between V+ and ground, and V– and ground, placed within 5mm of the pins. No external compensation is needed for unity-gain stability, but capacitive loads >100pF require series isolation resistors per Figure 46 in the LT6370HS8E#PBF datasheet.
How does the REF pin function in LT6370HS8E#PBF?
The REF pin in LT6370HS8E#PBF sets the output common-mode voltage. When driven with a voltage, the output equals G × (V+IN – V–IN) + VREF, with ±10V reference gain and ±20ppm/V PSRR. It enables differential-to-single-ended conversion and level-shifting without external op-amps - a core feature of the LT6370HS8E#PBF architecture.
Is LT6370HS8E#PBF pin-compatible with older instrumentation amplifiers?
No - LT6370HS8E#PBF uses a nonstandard SOIC pinout: Pin 1 is –RG (not V–), Pin 4 is V–, and Pin 5 is REF. It is not pin-compatible with INA128, AD620, or AD8221. Layout redesign is required; refer to the LT6370HS8E#PBF pin configuration diagram on page 4 of the datasheet.
What is the thermal performance of LT6370HS8E#PBF in the S8E package?
The LT6370HS8E#PBF in the S8E package has θJA = 33°C/W and θJC = 5°C/W. At 2.9mA supply current and ±15V supplies, power dissipation is ~87mW; junction temperature rise is ≤2.9°C above ambient under typical conditions. The exposed pad must float or connect to V+ per datasheet guidance to avoid thermal derating.
