Product details
Overview
LTC1992IMS8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is an unconstrained fully differential amplifier optimized for single-ended-to-differential conversion, level shifting, and precision differential signal conditioning in industrial and data acquisition systems. It delivers adjustable gain, ±0.3% max gain error over –40°C to 85°C, rail-to-rail output swing up to ±5V supplies, and stable operation with capacitive loads up to 10,000pF.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1992IMS8#PBF datasheet, LTC1992IMS8#PBF pinout, LTC1992IMS8#PBF application, or LTC1992IMS8#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its VOCM-controlled common-mode output level, low 1mA max supply current, 2.5MHz gain-bandwidth product, and guaranteed performance across –40°C to 85°C in the 8-lead MSOP package.
Technical Context
The LTC1992IMS8#PBF implements a fully differential architecture with independent internal common-mode feedback, enabling precise output phase balancing and reduced second-order harmonics. Its VOCM pin sets output common-mode voltage independently of input common-mode range, supporting seamless level translation between single-supply and dual-supply domains.
It operates from 2.7V single supply up to ±5V dual supply, accepts rail-to-rail differential inputs with input common-mode range from –VS to (+VS – 1.3V), and maintains stability without external compensation across all capacitive loads ≤10,000pF - a critical advantage for driving ADC drivers and high-impedance traces.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead plastic MSOP (3mm × 3mm), exposed pad, RoHS-compliant lead-free finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (–IN) | Inverting differential input | Accepts true differential or single-ended input referenced to VMID; supports rail-to-rail common-mode range |
| 2 (VOCM) | Output common-mode control | Sets (+VOUT + –VOUT)/2 independently; high-impedance (500MΩ) input enables precise DC level shift |
| 3 (+VS) | Positive supply | Connects to main positive rail; supports 2.7V to 11V total supply or ±5V dual supply |
| 4 (+OUT) | Positive differential output | Delivers rail-to-rail swing; capable of sourcing/sinking ≥10mA into matched loads |
| 5 (+IN) | Non-inverting differential input | Complements Pin 1; full differential pair enables rejection of even-order distortion |
| 6 (VMID) | Internal reference midpoint | Provides 2.50V ±60mV at 25°C; used as bias point for single-ended input configurations |
| 7 (–VS) | Negative supply | Connects to ground (single supply) or negative rail (dual supply); defines lower supply boundary |

Applications
| Single-Ended to Differential Conversion | Differential ADC Driver |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Converting output of a single-ended op-amp sensor interface (e.g., bridge amplifier) into a fully differential signal for a high-resolution SAR ADC. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC1992IMS8#PBF acts as a precision gain-and-level-shift stage, rejecting common-mode noise while matching ADC input impedance and voltage range. Use Value: Achieves >90dB CMRR at DC and preserves THD+N <–80dB up to 10kHz due to trimmed phase response and low offset drift. | Use Scenario: Driving the differential inputs of a 16-bit+ SAR ADC (e.g., AD768x, LTC23xx) in an isolated data acquisition module. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC1992IMS8#PBF provides low-noise, low-distortion buffering with precisely controlled output common mode aligned to ADC reference mid-point. Use Value: Enables full-scale utilization of ADC input range without clipping, while maintaining SNR >92dB via 35nV/√Hz input-referred noise and 2.5MHz GBW. |
| Level Shifting Interface | Multichannel Phase-Matched Signal Chain |
Use Scenario: Interfacing a 3.3V microcontroller's single-ended DAC output to a ±5V analog front-end requiring differential inputs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC1992IMS8#PBF translates 0–3.3V DAC output to a centered ±2.5V differential signal using VOCM = 0V and appropriate gain setting. Use Value: Eliminates AC coupling capacitors and associated low-frequency distortion, supporting DC-coupled precision control loops. | Use Scenario: Synchronizing multiple sensor channels (e.g., vibration monitoring array) where phase coherence across channels is critical for FFT-based analysis. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC1992IMS8#PBF serves as matched-gain, low-phase-error buffer in each channel, leveraging internal common-mode feedback for <0.1° phase mismatch at 10kHz. Use Value: Reduces inter-channel phase error to <0.05° (typical), enabling accurate time-of-flight or beamforming calculations. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fully differential amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4561DR | Higher GBW (3.2GHz), higher supply current (12.5mA), no VOCM pin - output common mode fixed at VCC/2 | Better for RF/IF signal chains >10MHz; unsuitable for arbitrary level shifting or low-power DC-coupled systems | Select THS4561DR only when bandwidth >100MHz is required and VOCM flexibility is not needed. |
| ADA4941-1ARZ | Lower supply current (1.2mA), integrated resistor network (gain = 1 or 2), VOCM pin present, but CLOAD stable only to 100pF | Requires external RC isolation for ADC driving; better for low-noise, low-distortion audio or precision DC, not high-capacitance interfaces | Choose ADA4941-1ARZ when fixed gain and ultra-low noise (2.9nV/√Hz) outweigh CLOAD stability needs. |
Compared with THS4561DR and ADA4941-1ARZ, the LTC1992IMS8#PBF uniquely balances wide supply range (2.7V–±5V), 10,000pF load stability, VOCM flexibility, and sub-1mA quiescent current - making it optimal for industrial DAQ, isolated sensor interfaces, and multichannel synchronized acquisition where layout simplicity and power efficiency are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the LTC1992IMS8#PBF can drive without instability?
The LTC1992IMS8#PBF is specified stable for all capacitive loads up to 10,000pF across its full operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). This eliminates the need for series output resistors when driving long PCB traces, anti-aliasing filters, or high-input-capacitance ADCs - a key differentiator versus most competing fully differential amplifiers limited to ≤100pF.
Does the LTC1992IMS8#PBF require external gain-setting resistors?
Yes, the LTC1992IMS8#PBF is an unconstrained fully differential amplifier and requires external feedback and gain-setting resistors to define closed-loop gain and configuration (e.g., single-ended-to-differential, differential-to-differential). Unlike the fixed-gain LTC1992-X variants (e.g., LTC1992-1IMS8#PBF), it offers full design flexibility but does not include on-chip precision resistors.
What is the function of the VMID pin on the LTC1992IMS8#PBF?
The VMID pin on the LTC1992IMS8#PBF provides an internally generated reference voltage of 2.50V ±60mV (at 25°C), used as a bias point for single-ended input configurations. When converting single-ended signals, VMID is typically connected to the non-driven input (e.g., –IN) to establish the input common-mode level, ensuring optimal linearity and offset performance.
Can the LTC1992IMS8#PBF operate from a single 3.3V supply?
Yes, the LTC1992IMS8#PBF is fully specified for single-supply operation from 2.7V to 11V total supply voltage. With a 3.3V supply (VS+ = 3.3V, VS– = 0V), it delivers rail-to-rail output swing (≥3.1Vpp differential), supports input common-mode range from 0V to 2.0V, and maintains 1mA max supply current - making it ideal for low-voltage portable instrumentation.
How does the VOCM pin affect output common-mode voltage in the LTC1992IMS8#PBF?
The VOCM pin on the LTC1992IMS8#PBF directly sets the output common-mode voltage (VOUTCM = (+VOUT + –VOUT)/2) independently of input common-mode voltage. Applying a voltage between (–VS + 0.5V) and (+VS – 1.3V) to VOCM forces the outputs to center at that level - enabling precise level shifting, e.g., translating a 0–3.3V single-ended signal to a ±1.65V differential output with VOCM = 0V.
