Product details
Overview
LTC6800HDD#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a precision rail-to-rail input/output instrumentation amplifier optimized for high-accuracy signal conditioning in harsh industrial and automotive environments. It delivers 116dB CMRR independent of gain, ≤100µV input offset voltage, <250nV/°C offset drift, and operates from –40°C to 125°C on a 2.7V–5.5V supply. It is used in thermocouple amplification, strain gauge interfaces, and high-resolution data acquisition where DC precision and temperature stability are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LTC6800HDD#PBF datasheet, LTC6800HDD#PBF pinout, LTC6800HDD#PBF application, or LTC6800HDD#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed offset drift over full temperature range, rail-to-rail common-mode input capability up to supply rails, internal zero-drift architecture, DFN package thermal performance, and compatibility with low-source-impedance sensor bridges requiring minimal external components.
Technical Context
The LTC6800HDD#PBF employs charge-balanced sampled-data techniques to translate differential input voltage into a single-ended signal, which is then amplified by an internal zero-drift op amp. Its CMRR remains stable at 116dB across gain settings and common-mode voltages from rail-to-rail, with no degradation below 100mV from rails except above 70°C.
Gain is set externally via two resistors connected to RG and REF pins, supporting unity to high gain configurations. Input bias current is integrated and specified at ≤10nA, while internal sampling frequency is fixed at 3kHz - enabling precise low-frequency measurement without aliasing concerns in static or slowly varying sensor applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CMRR | 116dB typical, independent of gain - ensures rejection of common-mode noise even at high gains and full rail-to-rail input range. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±100µV max - enables accurate measurement of µV-level signals from sensors like thermocouples or strain gauges. |
| Offset Drift | ±250nV/°C max (–40°C to 85°C) - guarantees stable DC accuracy across wide ambient temperature swings. |
| Supply Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports direct operation from 3.3V or 5V system rails without LDO overhead. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to 125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial motor control, and battery management systems. |
| Output Swing | Rail-to-rail (20mV low, 4.98V high @ 5V supply) - maximizes dynamic range for ADC interfacing with minimal headroom loss. |
| Supply Current | 1.3mA max - balances precision performance with moderate power consumption in always-on monitoring circuits. |
Pinout & Package
The LTC6800HDD#PBF is housed in an 8-lead 3mm × 3mm × 0.8mm plastic DFN package (DD) with exposed pad internally connected to V–. This package provides enhanced thermal dissipation and compact footprint for space-constrained PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| NC (Pin 1) | No-connect terminal | Must remain unconnected; no internal function or bond wire. |
| –IN (Pin 2) | Inverting input | Differential input node; accepts rail-to-rail common-mode voltage up to supply rails. |
| +IN (Pin 3) | Noninverting input | Differential input node; matched to –IN for optimal CMRR and input bias cancellation. |
| V– (Pin 4) | Negative supply | Ground reference for internal circuitry and output swing; connects to exposed thermal pad. |
| REF (Pin 5) | Reference voltage input | Sets output common-mode level; defines zero point for amplified differential signal. |
| RG (Pin 6) | Inverting input of internal op amp | Connects external feedback resistor to set closed-loop gain; enables programmable gain configuration. |
| OUT (Pin 7) | Amplifier output | Single-ended rail-to-rail output; drives ADC inputs or downstream signal chains directly. |
| V+ (Pin 8) | Positive supply | Primary power rail; requires 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitor placed between V+ and V– with shortest possible trace. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input common-mode range | Operates with inputs from V– to V+, eliminating need for level-shifting in single-supply sensor interfaces. |
| Zero-drift internal amplifier core | Enables long-term DC stability and eliminates 1/f noise - critical for precision weighing and medical instrumentation. |
| Guaranteed CMRR over temperature | 113dB min (–40°C to 125°C) ensures consistent noise immunity in automotive under-hood environments. |
| Internal 3kHz sampling clock | Fixed-frequency switched-capacitor front-end simplifies anti-aliasing filter design and avoids external clock dependencies. |
| Low input bias current mismatch | Integrated input offset current ≤3nA ensures minimal error from source resistance imbalance in bridge circuits. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar instrumentation amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC2053IMS8#PBF | Lower offset (10µV max), lower drift (50nV/°C), but limited to 125°C max junction temperature and MS8-only packaging. | Better DC specs but narrower temp range; not qualified for 125°C ambient automotive use cases. | Select LTC2053IMS8#PBF only when ambient temperature stays ≤85°C and ultra-low offset is prioritized over extended temperature qualification. |
| LT1167CS8#PBF | Higher supply current (1.3mA vs 1.2mA), fixed 10/100 gain options, no rail-to-rail input - requires level-shifting for single-supply operation. | Requires additional external circuitry for rail-to-rail input support; less suitable for direct sensor-to-ADC interfaces. | Choose LT1167CS8#PBF when gain is fixed and board space allows level-shifting components; avoid when minimizing BOM count is critical. |
Compared with LTC2053IMS8#PBF and LT1167CS8#PBF, the LTC6800HDD#PBF uniquely combines guaranteed 125°C operation, rail-to-rail input, and 116dB CMRR independent of gain - making it the only option qualified for high-temperature, low-component-count, high-precision sensor front-ends without external support circuitry.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the LTC6800HDD#PBF?
The LTC6800HDD#PBF is fully specified and guaranteed functional from –40°C to 125°C ambient temperature. This rating is explicitly confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and Electrical Characteristics section, where parameters marked with "l" apply across this full range. The device uses the H-grade temperature qualification, making it suitable for under-hood automotive and industrial control applications.
Does the LTC6800HDD#PBF require an external clock source?
No, the LTC6800HDD#PBF does not require an external clock. It incorporates an internal 3kHz sampling clock used in its charge-balanced switched-capacitor front-end. This eliminates timing dependency on external sources and simplifies system design - no clock routing, synchronization, or jitter concerns are introduced when using the LTC6800HDD#PBF in precision DC measurement applications.
Can the LTC6800HDD#PBF operate with a 3.3V supply?
Yes, the LTC6800HDD#PBF operates from 2.7V to 5.5V, so it functions correctly with a nominal 3.3V supply. At 3.3V, the output swing is guaranteed to be ≥3.0V high and ≤20mV low (referenced to V–), preserving >90% of full-scale dynamic range for interfacing with 3.3V ADCs. Supply current remains within 1.3mA specification across this voltage range.
How is gain configured on the LTC6800HDD#PBF?
Gain on the LTC6800HDD#PBF is set externally using two resistors: one between RG (Pin 6) and OUT (Pin 7), and another between RG and REF (Pin 5). The gain equation is G = 1 + R2/R1, where R2 connects RG to OUT and R1 connects RG to REF. This architecture mirrors traditional op-amp feedback, allowing flexible gain selection from unity upward without requiring special programming interfaces.
Is the DFN package of the LTC6800HDD#PBF thermally enhanced?
Yes, the DD package of the LTC6800HDD#PBF features an exposed metal pad on the underside that is internally connected to V–. When soldered to a PCB copper pour tied to the system ground plane, this pad significantly improves thermal resistance (θJA = 160°C/W), enabling reliable operation at elevated ambient temperatures and higher quiescent power dissipation without derating.
