GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This family of amplifiers has ultralow offset, drift, and bias
current. The AD8571, AD8572, and AD8574 are single, dual,
and quad amplifiers, respectively, featuring rail-to-rail input
and output swings. All are guaranteed to operate from 2.7 V to
5 V single supply.
The AD857x family provides benefits previously found only in
expensive auto-zeroing or chopper-stabilized amplifiers. Using
Analog Devices, Inc., topology, these zero-drift amplifiers
combine low cost with high accuracy. (No external capacitors
are required.) Using a patented spread-spectrum, auto-zero
technique, the AD857x family eliminates the intermodulation
effects from interaction of the chopping function with the
signal frequency in ac applications.
With an offset voltage of only 1 μV and drift of 0.005 μV/°C, the
AD857x family is perfectly suited for applications where error
sources cannot be tolerated. Position and pressure sensors,
medical equipment, and strain gage amplifiers benefit greatly
from nearly zero drift over their operating temperature range.
Many more systems require the rail-to-rail input and output
swings provided by the AD857x family.
