Product details
Overview
LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF from Analog Devices is a digitally controlled, inverting programmable gain amplifier (PGA) with 3-bit digital gain selection (0–7 V/V), rail-to-rail output, and internal half-supply reference at AGND for single-supply operation. It operates from 2.7V to 10.5V total supply, delivers 11MHz gain-bandwidth product at G = 7, and achieves input-referred voltage noise as low as 10.5nV/√Hz - ideal for precision sensor signal conditioning in portable data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF datasheet, LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF pinout, LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF application, or LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed low-gain range (0–7×), 8-pin TSOT-23 package footprint, guaranteed –40°C to 85°C operation, and compatibility with 3.3V/5V logic-level digital control inputs.
Technical Context
The LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF implements an inverting amplifier topology with a precision internal op amp and digitally selectable feedback network. Its 3-bit G2/G1/G0 inputs directly configure eight discrete gain states (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 V/V), with gain accuracy within ±0.1dB at G = 1 and ±0.2dB at G = 7 under 5V supply conditions.
It features an internally generated AGND reference at ~VS/2 (2.45–2.55V at VS = 5V), enabling true rail-to-rail input signal handling when used with single supplies. Output swing is specified to within 20mV of each rail into 10kΩ load, and small-signal output resistance ranges from 0.7Ω (G = 1) to 2.5Ω (G = 7).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar programmable gain amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4208ETA+ | Single-supply, rail-to-rail I/O, 8-pin µMAX; gain range 1–100 V/V (4-bit); higher supply current (3.5 mA) | Broader gain range suits wider dynamic input spans; less suitable for ultra-low-power portable use | Select when >10× gain or lower input bias current (<1 pA) is required - not drop-in compatible due to different pinout and control interface |

FAQ
What gain settings does the LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF support?
The LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF supports eight discrete inverting gain settings: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 V/V, selected via the 3-bit parallel digital inputs G2/G1/G0. Unlike the LTC6910-1 and LTC6910-2 variants, the LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF does not offer gains above 7 V/V or logarithmic spacing - its linear low-gain set prioritizes amplitude accuracy and wide input common-mode range.
Can the LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF operate from a single 3.3V supply?
Yes, the LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF operates from a single 3.3V supply (2.7V to 10.5V total). Its internal AGND pin provides a stable ~1.65V reference, enabling rail-to-rail input signal handling. At 3.3V, the device draws 2.4 mA typical supply current and maintains output swing within 30 mV of each rail into 10 kΩ - fully compatible with 3.3V microcontrollers and ADCs.
Does the LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF require external resistors for gain setting?
No, the LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF integrates all gain-setting resistors and the amplifier core in a monolithic design. Gain is selected solely by the logic states on pins G2/G1/G0 - no external resistors, DACs, or configuration registers are needed. This eliminates gain drift, matching errors, and board space associated with discrete resistor networks.
How does the AGND pin function in the LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF?
The AGND pin of the LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF provides an internally generated reference at approximately VS/2 (e.g., 1.65V at 3.3V, 2.5V at 5V). It serves as the common-mode reference for the inverting amplifier, enabling true rail-to-rail input operation with single supplies. AGND may also be driven externally by a precision system reference to improve PSRR and reduce ground bounce sensitivity.
What is the maximum operating temperature for the LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF?
Per the order information table, the LTC6910-3CTS8#TRMPBF is the C-grade variant, rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C. This temperature range is fully specified and tested - including gain accuracy, offset voltage, and bandwidth - making it suitable for industrial automation, medical devices, and automotive cabin applications where ambient temperatures remain below 85°C.
