ZHCSEJ3B June 2015 – April 2020 ADS131E08S
PRODUCTION DATA.
Each channel has its own configurable programmable gain amplifier (PGA) following its multiplexer. The PGA is designed using two operational amplifiers in a differential configuration, as shown in Figure 22. Set the gain to one of five settings (1, 2, 4, 8, and 12) using the CHnSET registers for each individual channel (see the CHnSET registers in the Register Map section for details). The ADS131E08S has CMOS inputs and therefore has negligible current noise. Table 3 shows the typical small-signal bandwidth values for various gain settings.
GAIN | NOMINAL BANDWIDTH AT TA = 25°C (kHz) |
---|---|
1 | 237 |
2 | 146 |
4 | 96 |
8 | 48 |
12 | 32 |
The PGA resistor string that implements the gain has 120 kΩ of resistance for a gain of 2. This resistance provides a current path across the PGA outputs in the presence of a differential input signal. This current is in addition to the quiescent current specified for the device in the presence of a differential signal at the input.
