Aug 6th 2007
Instrumentation amplifiers present a high input impedance to a differential input signal source and provide a single ended output. This circuit uses the non-inverting inputs of each amplifier of the dual LTC6081 for the differential input terminals. The gain is set with external resistors to over 1000. A CMRR trim cancels ...
Low Side Current Sense
Aug 6th 2007
Sensing the amount of current through a load on the low side has the disadvantage of raising the return connection to the load from ground. The advantage of such an approach is that it is very easy to implement using a basic non-inverting gain stage. The LTC6081 operates linearly down to ground also in this single supply example.

LTC6081 Single Supply Strain Gauge Amplifier
Aug 6th 2007
A dual CMOS amplifier with low supply voltage operation and rail to rail input and output performance makes single supply operation easy. This circuit provides a gain of 1001 to the small differential input signal from a low voltage strain gauge bridge transducer. High input impedance allows for high valued input resistors ...
