GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8209 is a single-supply difference amplifier ideal for
amplifying and low-pass filtering small differential voltages in the
presence of a large common-mode voltage. The input commonmode voltage range extends from −2 V to +45 V at a single +5 V
supply. The AD8209 is qualified per AEC-Q100 specifications. The
amplifier offers enhanced input overvoltage and ESD protection,
and includes EMI filtering.
performance, minimizing errors in the application. Typical offset
and gain drift in the MSOP package are less than 5 µV/°C and
10 ppm/°C, respectively. The device also delivers a minimum
CMRR of 80 dB from dc to 10 kHz.
The AD8209 features an externally accessible 100 kΩ resistor at
the output of the preamplifier (A1), which can be used for lowpass filtering and for establishing gains other than 14.
Automotive applications demand robust, precision components for
improved system control. The AD8209 provides excellent ac and dc

The AD8209 preamplifier exceeds 80 dB CMRR at 10 kHz. However, because the output is available only by way of the 100 kΩ resistor, even a small amount of pin-topin capacitance between the IN pins and the A1 and A2 pins might couple an input common-mode signal larger than the greatly attenuated preamplifier output. The
effect of pin-to-pin coupling can be neglected in all applications by using a filter capacitor from Pin 3 to GND.

The output voltage range of the AD8209 varies depending on the load resistance and temperature. For additional information on this specification, refer to Figure 12
and Figure 13.

AD8209
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD8209 is a single-supply difference amplifier typically used
to amplify a small differential voltage in the presence of rapidly
changing, high common-mode voltages.
The AD8209 consists of two amplifiers (A1 and A2), a resistor
network, a small voltage reference, and a bias circuit (not shown);
see Figure 23.
The set of input attenuators preceding A1 consist of RA, RB, and
RC, which feature a combined series resistance of approximately
400 kΩ ± 20%. The purpose of these resistors is to attenuate the
input voltage to match the input voltage range of A1. This balanced
resistor network attenuates the common-mode signal by a ratio
of 1/14. The A1 amplifier inputs are held within the power supply
range, even as Pin 1 and Pin 8 exceed the supply or fall below the
common (ground). A reference voltage of 350 mV biases the
attenuator above ground, allowing Amplifier A1 to operate in
the presence of negative common-mode voltages.
The input resistor network also attenuates normal (differential)
mode voltages. Therefore, A1 features a gain of 97 V/V to provide
a total system gain, from ±IN to the output of A1, equal to 7 V/V,
as shown in the following equation:
by connecting A1 to A2 and placing a capacitor to ground (see
Figure 32).
The value of RF1 and RF2 is 10 kΩ, providing a gain of 2 V/V for
Amplifier A2. When connecting Pin A1 and Pin A2 together, the
AD8209 provides a total system gain equal to
Total Gain of (A1 + A2) (V/V) = 7 (V/V) × 2 (V/V) = 14 V/V
at the output of A2 (the OUT pin).
The ratios of RA, RB, RC, and RF are trimmed to a high level of
precision, allowing a typical CMRR value that exceeds 80 dB. This
performance is accomplished by laser trimming the resistor ratio
matching to better than 0.01%.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
HIGH-SIDE CURRENT SENSING
WITH A LOW-SIDE SWITCH
HIGH-RAIL CURRENT SENSING
In load control configurations for high-side current sensing with a
low-side switch, the PWM-controlled switch is ground referenced.
An inductive load (solenoid) connects to a power supply/battery.
A resistive shunt is placed between the switch and the load (see
Figure 24). An advantage of placing the shunt on the high side
is that the entire current, including the recirculation current, is
monitored because the shunt remains in the loop when the switch
is off. In addition, shorts to ground can be detected with the shunt
on the high side, enhancing the diagnostics of the control loop. In
this circuit configuration, when the switch is closed, the commonmode voltage moves down to near the negative rail. When the
switch is opened, the voltage reversal across the inductive load
causes the common-mode voltage to be held one diode drop
above the battery by the clamp diode.
In the high-rail current-sensing configuration, the shunt resistor is
referenced to the battery. High voltage is present at the inputs of
the current-sense amplifier. When the shunt is battery referenced,
the AD8209 produces a linear ground-referenced analog output.
Additionally, the AD8214 can be used to provide an overcurrent
detection signal in as little as 100 ns (see Figure 26). This feature is
useful in high current systems where fast shutdown in overcurrent
conditions is essential.
