1000. Furthermore, the AD620 features 8-lead SOIC and DIP packaging that is smaller than discrete designs, and offers lower power (only 1.3 mA max supply current), making it a good fit for battery powered, portable (or remote) applications. The AD620, with its high accuracy of 40 ppm maximum nonlinearity, low offset voltage of 50 V max and offset drift of 0.6 V/C max, is ideal for use in precision data acquisition systems, such as weigh scales and transducer interfaces. Furthermore, the low noise, low input bias current, and low power of the AD620 make it well suited for medical applications such as ECG and noninvasive blood pressure monitors. The low input bias current of 1.0 nA max is made possible with the use of Supereta processing in the input stage. The AD620 works well as a preamplifier due to its low input voltage noise of 9 nV/Hz at 1 kHz, 0.28 V p-p in the 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz band, 0.1 pA/Hz input current noise. Also, the AD620 is well suited for multiplexed applications with its settling time of 15 s to 0.01% and its cost is low enough to enable designs with one inamp per channel.

*FOR CHIP APPLICATIONS: THE PADS 1RG AND 8RG MUST BE CONNECTED IN PARALLEL TO THE EXTERNAL GAIN REGISTER RG. DO NOT CONNECT THEM IN SERIES TO RG. FOR UNITY GAIN APPLICATIONS WHERE RG IS NOT REQUIRED, THE PADS 1RG MAY SIMPLY BE BONDED TOGETHER, AS WELL AS THE PADS 8RG.

CAUTION ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the AD620 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
