amplify, level shift, and drive precision systems - ve2013
DESCRIPTION
Amplifiers are the workhorses of data acquisition and transmission systems. They capture and amplify the low level signals from sensors and transmitters, and can pull these signals from high noise and high common-mode voltage levels. Amplifiers can also change the signal range and switch from single-ended to differential (or the reverse) to match exactly the input range of an ADC. This session covers the versatility and power of amplifiers in precision systems.TRANSCRIPT

Amplifiers and Operational Amplifiers
Amplifiers Make a low-level, high-source impedance signal into a high-level, low-source
impedance signal Op amps, power amps, RF amps, instrumentation amps, etc. Most complex amplifiers built up from combinations of op amps
Operational amplifiers Three-terminal device (plus power supplies) Amplify a small signal at the input terminals to a very, very large one at the
output terminal
6
Operational Amplifiers
Operational Op amps can be configured with feedback networks in multiple ways to perform
“operations” on input signals “Operations” include positive or negative gain, filtering, nonlinear transfer
functions, comparison, summation, subtraction, reference buffering, differential amplification, integration, differentiation, etc.
Applications Fundamental building block for analog design Sensor input amplifier Simple and complex filters – antialiasing ADC driver

Key Op Amp Performance Features
Bandwidth and Slew Rate The speed of the op amp Bandwidth is the highest operating frequency of the op amp Slew rate is the maximum rate of change of the output Determined by the frequency of the signal and the gain needed
Offset Voltage and Current The errors of the op amp Determines measurement accuracy
Noise Op amp noise limits how small a signal can be amplified with good fidelity

Single-Ended vs. Differential Signals
Single-ended signals Signal is measured referred to ground When signals are bipolar (+ and –), negative supplies needed AC signals are typically bipolar or need special “floating,” or capacitive coupling Ground often carries high noise from other signals or power, compromising the
signal
Differential signals Both sides of the signal float “off ground” Signals are separated from ground and other signals High frequency and accuracy usually need differential handling Common mode (average) can be set for single supply Specialized differential/difference amplifiers are needed
35
Instrumentation, Difference, and Differential Amplifiers Instrumentation Amplifiers Amplify differential inputs to a single-ended output Normally both amplifier inputs are high impedance Provide high gain (up to 10,000) and low noise Normally handle low-level signals from sensors
Difference Amplifiers Amplify differential inputs from high common-mode voltage levels Often include input attenuator to allow operation outside supplies High common-mode rejection even at high frequencies
Differential Amplifiers High frequency amplifiers with differential input and output Handle higher-level signals at lower gains Typically used for line driving/receiving and ADC driving

Input Common Mode Range in Instrumentation Amplifiers Input common-mode voltage
range is limited in instrumentation amplifiers This is not the same as the input
voltage range of each input Internal amplifiers may get
saturated in the presence of large common-mode voltages
This behavior usually limits single supply operation at low voltage levels
The “diamond” plots are a graphical representation of these operational limits The amplifier will only operate
inside the plot Sometimes is necessary to change
the gain, reference voltage or power supply levels

ADC Driver Amplifiers
Driving ADC inputs ADC switching feeds transient back to input pins ADC driver amp must reject transients to provide accurate signal
High Performance ADCs Recent high performance ADCs have 16 bits and more at 200 MSPS and
higher Such performance requires a differential input signal
Differential Amplifiers Differential or single-ended input converted to differential output Low impedance output stage rejects ADC switching spikes Common-mode level set and gain setting allow optimum match to ADC range
Voltage Reference Buffer ADC transients can reflect back to reference output Op amp buffer with low output impedance at high frequency may be needed

What We Covered
Op amps are very versatile devices that can be set up for many applications
Op amps cannot amplify an input signal with a higher gain than their own noise – pick low noise op amps
Specialty amplifiers are built-up combinations of op amps with performance tailored to applications
High performance ADCs need high performance driver amplifiers to obtain full accuracy
Differential amplifiers can pick off small signals from very high common-mode voltages
New software and online design tools greatly simplify product selection and system design
