DESCRIPTIO
The LTC®6911 is a family of low noise digitally programmable gain amplifiers (PGAs) that are easy to use and
occupy very little PC board space. The matched gain of
both channels is adjustable using a 3-bit parallel interface
to select voltage gains of 0, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100V/
V (LTC6911-1) and 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and 64V/V
(LTC6911-2). All gains are inverting.
3-Bit Digital Gain Control:
(Inverting Gains of 0, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50
and 100V/V) -1 Option
(Inverting Gains of 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32
and 64V/V) -2 Option
Two Matched Programmable Gain Amplifiers
Channel-to-Channel Gain Matching of 0.1dB (Max)
Rail-to-Rail Input Range
Rail-to-Rail Output Swing
Single or Dual Supply: 2.7V to 10.5V Total
11MHz Gain Bandwidth Product
Input Noise: 10nV/√Hz
Total System Dynamic Range to 120dB
Input Offset Voltage: 2mV, Gain of 10
Low Profile 10-Lead MSOP Package
The LTC6911 family consists of two matched inverting
amplifiers with rail-to-rail outputs. When operated with
unity gain, they will also process rail-to-rail input signals.
A half-supply reference generated internally at the AGND
pin supports single power supply applications. Operating
from single or split supplies from 2.7V to 10.5V, the
LTC6911 family is offered in a 10-lead MSOP package.

Note 6: Gain is measured with a DC large-signal test using an output
excursion between approximately 30% and 70% of the total supply
voltage.
Note 7: Channel-to-channel isolation is measured by applying a 200kHz
input signal to one channel so that its output varies 1VRMS and measuring
the output voltage RMS of the other channel relative to AGND with its
input tied to AGND. Isolation is calculated:
IsolationA = 20 • log10

Note 8: Offset voltage referred to the INA or INB input is (1 + 1/G) times
the offset voltage of the internal op amp, where G is the nominal gain
magnitude. See Applications Information.
Note 9: Input resistance can vary by approximately ±30% part-to-part at a
given gain setting (input resistance match remains as specified).

INA (Pin 1): Analog Input. The input signal to the A channel
amplifier of the LTC6911-X is the voltage difference between the INA and AGND pin. The INA pin connects
internally to a digitally controlled resistance whose other
end is a current summing point at the same potential as the
AGND pin (Figure 1). At unity gain (digital input 001), the
value of this input resistance is approximately 10kΩ and
the INA pin voltage range is rail-to-rail (V+ to V–). At gain
settings above unity, the input resistance falls. The linear
input range at INA also falls inversely proportional to the
programmed gain. Tables 1 and 2 summarize this behavior. The higher gains are designed to boost lower level
signals with good noise performance. In the “zero” gain
state (digital input 000), analog switches disconnect the
INA pin internally and this pin presents a very high input
resistance. The input may vary from rail to rail in the “zero”
gain setting, but the output is insensitive to it and is forced
to the AGND potential.
Circuitry driving the INA pin must consider the LTC6911-X’s
input resistance, its lot-to-lot variance, and the variation of
this resistance from gain setting to gain setting. Signal
sources with significant output resistance may introduce
a gain error as the source’s output resistance and the
LTC6911-X’s input resistance form a voltage divider. This
is especially true at higher gain settings where the input
resistance is the lowest.
In single supply voltage applications, it is important to
remember that the LTC6911-X’s DC ground reference for
both input and output is AGND, not V–. With increasing
gains, the LTC6911-X’s input voltage range for an unclipped
output is no longer rail-to-rail but diminishes inversely to
gain, centered about the AGND potential.

AGND (Pin 2): Analog Ground. The AGND pin is at the
midpoint of an internal resistive voltage divider, developing a potential halfway between the V+ and V– pins, with an
equivalent series resistance to the pin of nominally 5kΩ
(Figure␣ 1). AGND is also the noninverting input to both the
internal channel A and channel B amplifiers. This makes
AGND the ground reference voltage for the INA, INB, OUTA
and OUTB pins. Recommended analog ground plane connection depends on how power is applied to the LTC6911-X
(see Figures 2, 3 and 4). Single power supply applications
typically use V– for the system signal ground. The analog
ground plane in single supply applications should therefore tie to V–, and the AGND pin should be bypassed to this
ground plane by a high quality capacitor of at least 1µF
(Figure 2). The AGND pin provides an internal analog
reference voltage at half the V+ supply voltage. Dual supply
applications with symmetrical supplies (such as ±5V)
have a natural system ground plane potential of zero volts,
which can be tied directly to the AGND pin, making the zero
volt ground plane the input and output reference voltage
for the LTC6911-X (Figure 3). Finally, if dual asymmetrical
power supplies are used, the supply ground is still the
natural ground plane voltage. To maximize signal swing
capability with an asymmetrical supply, however, it is
often desirable to refer the LTC6911-X’s analog input and
output to a voltage equidistant from the two supply rails V+
and V–. The AGND pin will provide such a potential when
open-circuited and bypassed with a capacitor (Figure 4).

In noise sensitive applications where AGND does not
directly tie to a ground plane, as in Figures 2 and 4, it is
important to AC-bypass the AGND pin. Otherwise, channel-to-channel isolation is degraded and wideband noise
will enter the signal path from the thermal noise of the
internal voltage divider resistors that present a Thévenin
equivalent resistance of approximately 5kΩ. This noise
can reduce SNR by at least 3dB at high gain settings. An
external capacitor from AGND to the ground plane, whose
impedance is well below 5kΩ at frequencies of interest,
will filter and suppress this noise. A 1µF high quality
capacitor is effective for frequencies down to 1kHz. Larger
capacitors extend this suppression to lower frequencies.
This issue does not arise in dual supply applications
because the AGND pin ties directly to ground.
In applications requiring an analog ground reference other
than half the total supply voltage, the user can override the
built-in analog ground reference by tying the AGND pin to
a reference voltage within the AGND voltage range specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. The AGND pin
will load the external reference with approximately 5kΩ
returned to the half-supply potential. AGND should still be
capacitively bypassed to a ground plane as noted above.
Do not connect the AGND pin to the V– pin.
INB (Pin 3): Analog Input. Refer to INA pin description.
G0, G1, G2 (Pins 4, 5, 6): CMOS-Level Digital Gain
Control Inputs. G2 is the most significant bit (MSB) and G0
is the least significant bit (LSB). These pins control the
voltage gain settings for both channels (see Tables 1
and␣ 2). Each channel’s gain cannot be set independent of
the other channel. The logic input pins (G pins) are allowed
to swing from V– to 10.5V above V–, regardless of V+ so
long as the logic levels meet the minimum requirements
specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. The G0, G1
and G2 pins are high impedance CMOS logic inputs, but
have small pull-down current sources (10µF) near the chip, can create
a high-Q LC resonance in the hundreds of kHz in the chip’s
supplies or ground reference. This may impair circuit
performance at those frequencies. A compact, carefully
laid out printed circuit board with a good ground plane
makes a significant difference in minimizing distortion and
maximizing channel isolation. Finally, equipment to measure amplifier performance can itself add to distortion or
noise floors. Checking for these limits with wired shorts
from INA to OUTA and INB to OUTB in place of the chip is
a prudent routine procedure.

Expanding an ADC’s Dynamic Range
Figure 5 shows a compact 2-channel data acquisition
system for wide ranging input levels. This figure combines
an LTC6911-X programmable amplifier (10-lead MSOP)
with an LTC1865 analog-to-digital converter (ADC) in an
8-lead MSOP. This ADC has 16-bit resolution and a
V+
maximum sampling rate of 250ksps. An LTC6911-1, for
example, expands the ADC’s input amplitude range by
40dB while operating from the same single 5V supply. The
499Ω resistor and 270pF capacitor couple cleanly between the LTC6911-X’s output and the switched-capacitor
inputs of the LTC1865.
