Programmable Instrumentation Amplifiers
General Description
The MAX5426 is a precision resistor network optimized
for use with programmable instrumentation amplifiers.
The MAX5426 operates from dual ±5V to ±15V supplies
and consumes less than 40µA of supply current.
Designed to be used in the traditional three op amp
instrumentation amplifier topology, this device provides
noninverting gains of 1, 2, 4, and 8 that are accurate to
0.025% (A-grade), 0.09% (B-grade), or 0.5%
(C-grade) over the extended temperature range (-40°C
to +85°C). The MAX5426 is available in the 6.4mm
✕
5mm 14-pin TSSOP package.

Note 1:
Total error when configured as instrumentation amplifier. Assumes ideal op amps.
Note 2:
Each stage (input stage and output stage) is tested for accuracy separately and combined to give the total gain accuracy.
The input stage is tested as follows: OUT1 = 10V, OUT2 = 0. Output stage is tested as follows OUT1 = 10V, OUT2 = 0 and
OUT2 = 10V, OFFSET = 0.
Note 3:
Gain of 1 configuration is open circuit (infinite impedance).
Note 4:
Equivalent load at each pin is calculated according to instrumentation amplifier configuration and assumes ideal op amps.
Note 5:

MAX5426
Detailed Description
The MAX5426 is a precision resistor network with low
temperature drift and high accuracy that performs the
same function as a precision resistor array and CMOS
switches. Operationally, this device consists of fixed
resistors and digitally controlled variable resistors that
provide differential gains of 1, 2, 4, and 8 (see
Functional Diagram).
The MAX5426 provides gains
accurate to 0.025% (MAX5426A), 0.09% (MAX5426B)
or 0.5% (MAX5426C).
The MAX5426 is ideal for programmable instrumenta-
tion amplifiers. An offset pin is available to apply a DC
offset voltage to the output of the differential amplifier.
Pin CM is the common-mode input voltage and can be
buffered and connected to the common-mode input of
the instrumentation amplifier (usually the shield of the
input cable to reduce the effects of cable capacitance
and leakage).
Timing Diagram
Figure 3 shows the timing diagram of MAX5426 for two
cases. In case 1, the differential input changes are at
OUT1 and OUT2, while the voltage settling is observed
at FB1 and FB2. The settling time (t
SETTLE
) is defined
as the time for the output voltage (from the change in
the input) to reach (and stay) within 0.02% of its final
value.
In case 2, the differential inputs (OUT1 and OUT2) are
at constant voltages, while D1 and D0 are varied (for
example from 01 to 10) to make a change in the gain.
No op amps are used in these cases.

Digital Interface Operation
The MAX5426 features a simple two-bit parallel pro-
gramming interface. D1 and D0 program the gain set-
ting according to the
Logic-Control Truth Table
(see
Table 1). The digital interface is CMOS/TTL logic com-
patible.
