Introduction
The ISL281x8EVAL1Z evaluation board is a design platform
containing all the circuitry needed to characterize critical
performance parameters of the ISL281x8 operational
amplifiers, using a variety of user defined test circuits.
The ISL28138 and ISL28148 high-speed operational
amplifiers feature low power consumption, while the
ISL28158 and ISL28168 operational amplifiers feature
ultra-low power consumption. All op amps have rail-to-rail
output drive capability and are designed to operate with a
single lithium cell or two Ni_Cd batteries.

Evaluation Board Key Features
The ISL281x8EVAL1Z is designed to enable the IC to
operate from a single supply, +2.4VDC to +5.5VDC or from
split supplies, ±1.2VDC to ±2.75V. The board is configured
for a single op amp connected for differential input with a
closed loop gain of 10. It also contains a single external
reference voltage (VREF) pin and provisions for a
user-selectable voltage divider (filter are included).
FIGURE 1. POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT
Amplifier Configuration (
Figure
2)
The schematic of the op amp with the components supplied
is shown in Figure 2. The circuit implements a differential
input amp with a closed loop gain of 10. The circuit can
operate from a single supply or from dual supplies. The
VREF pin can be connected to ground to establish a ground
referenced input for split supply operation, or can be
externally set to any reference level for single supply
operation.
Power Supplies (
Figure 1
)
External power connections are made through the V+, V-
and Ground connections on the evaluation board. For single
supply operation, the V- and Ground pins are tied together to
the power supply negative terminal. For split supplies V+

User-selectable Options (
Figures 3 and 4
)
Component pads are included to enable a variety of
user-selectable circuits to be added to the amplifier inputs,
the VREF input, outputs and the amplifier feedback loops.
A voltage divider and filter option (Figure 3) can be added to
establish a power supply-tracking common mode reference
at the VREF input. The inverting and non-inverting inputs
have additional resistor placements for adding input
attenuation, or to establish input DC offsets through the
VREF pin.

The output (Figure 4) has a 10k load resistor to ground,
and has additional resistor and capacitor placements for
loading.
NOTE: Operational amplfiers are sensitive to output
capacitance and may oscilate. In the event of oscilation,
reduce output capacitance by using shorter cables, or add a
resistor in series with the output.

4.
No license, express, implied or otherwise, is granted hereby under any patents, copyrights or other intellectual property rights of Renesas Electronics or others.
You shall not alter, modify, copy, or reverse engineer any Renesas Electronics product, whether in whole or in part. Renesas Electronics disclaims any and all liability for any losses or damages incurred by
you or third parties arising from such alteration, modification, copying or reverse engineering.
5.
Renesas Electronics products are classified according to the following two quality grades: “Standard” and “High Quality”. The intended applications for each Renesas Electronics product depends on the
product’s quality grade, as indicated below.

equipment; industrial robots; etc.
"High Quality": Transportation equipment (automobiles, trains, ships, etc.); traffic control (traffic lights); large-scale communication equipment; key financial terminal systems; safety control equipment; etc.
Unless expressly designated as a high reliability product or a product for harsh environments in a Renesas Electronics data sheet or other Renesas Electronics document, Renesas Electronics products are
not intended or authorized for use in products or systems that may pose a direct threat to human life or bodily injury (artificial life support devices or systems; surgical implantations; etc.), or may cause
serious property damage (space system; undersea repeaters; nuclear power control systems; aircraft control systems; key plant systems; military equipment; etc.). Renesas Electronics disclaims any and all
liability for any damages or losses incurred by you or any third parties arising from the use of any Renesas Electronics product that is inconsistent with any Renesas Electronics data sheet, user’s manual or
other Renesas Electronics document.
6.
When using Renesas Electronics products, refer to the latest product information (data sheets, user’s manuals, application notes, “General Notes for Handling and Using Semiconductor Devices” in the
reliability handbook, etc.), and ensure that usage conditions are within the ranges specified by Renesas Electronics with respect to maximum ratings, operating power supply voltage range, heat dissipation
characteristics, installation, etc. Renesas Electronics disclaims any and all liability for any malfunctions, failure or accident arising out of the use of Renesas Electronics products outside of such specified

7.
Although Renesas Electronics endeavors to improve the quality and reliability of Renesas Electronics products, semiconductor products have specific characteristics, such as the occurrence of failure at a
certain rate and malfunctions under certain use conditions. Unless designated as a high reliability product or a product for harsh environments in a Renesas Electronics data sheet or other Renesas
Electronics document, Renesas Electronics products are not subject to radiation resistance design. You are responsible for implementing safety measures to guard against the possibility of bodily injury, injury
or damage caused by fire, and/or danger to the public in the event of a failure or malfunction of Renesas Electronics products, such as safety design for hardware and software, including but not limited to
redundancy, fire control and malfunction prevention, appropriate treatment for aging degradation or any other appropriate measures. Because the evaluation of microcomputer software alone is very difficult
and impractical, you are responsible for evaluating the safety of the final products or systems manufactured by you.
