AD8556  
GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The AD8556 is a zero-drift, sensor signal amplifier with  
digitally programmable gain and output offset. Designed to  
easily and accurately convert variable pressure sensor and  
strain bridge outputs to a well-defined output voltage range,  
the AD8556 accurately amplifies many other differential or  
single-ended sensor outputs. The AD8556 uses the Analog  
Devices, Inc. patented low noise, auto-zero and DigiTrim®  
technologies to create an incredibly accurate and flexible  
signal processing solution in a very compact footprint.  
In addition to extremely low input offset voltage, low input offset  
voltage drift, and very high dc and ac CMRR, the AD8556 also  
includes a pull-up current source at the input pins and a pull-  
down current source at the VCLAMP pin, which allows open  
wire and shorted wire fault detection. A low-pass filter function  
is implemented via a single low cost external capacitor. Output  
clamping set via an external reference voltage allows the AD8556  
to drive lower voltage ADCs safely and accurately.  
When used in conjunction with an ADC referenced to the same  
supply, the system accuracy becomes immune to normal supply  
voltage variations. Output offset voltage can be adjusted with a  
resolution of better than 0.4% of the difference between VDD  
and VSS. A lockout trim after gain and offset adjustment further  
ensures field reliability.  
Gain is digitally programmable in a wide range from 70 to  
1280 through a serial data interface. Gain adjustment can  
be fully simulated in-circuit and then permanently pro-  
grammed with reliable polyfuse technology. Output offset  
voltage is also digitally programmable and is ratiometric to  
the supply voltage. The AD8556 also features internal EMI  
filters on the VNEG, VPOS, FILT and VCLAMP pins.  
The AD8556 is fully specified from −40°C to +140°C.  
Operating from single-supply voltages of 4.5 V to 5.5 V, the  
AD8556 is offered in the 8-lead SOIC_N and 4 mm × 4 mm  
16-lead LFCSP_WQ.

THEORY OF OPERATION  
A1, A2, R1, R2, R3, P1, and P2 form the first gain stage of the  
differential amplifier. A1 and A2 are auto-zeroed op amps that  
minimize input offset errors. P1 and P2 are digital potentiometers,  
guaranteed to be monotonic. Programming P1 and P2 allows  
the first stage gain to be varied from 4.0 to 6.4 with 7-bit  
resolution (see Table 6 and Equation 1), giving a fine gain  
adjustment resolution of 0.37%. R1, R2, R3, P1, and P2 each  
have a similar temperature coefficient; therefore, the first stage  
gain temperature coefficient is lower than 100 ppm/°C.  
A4 implements a rail-to-rail input and output unity-gain  
voltage buffer. The output stage of A4 is supplied from a  
buffered version of VCLAMP instead of VDD, allowing the  
positive swing to be limited. The maximum output current is  
limited between 5 mA to 10 mA.  
An 8-bit DAC is used to generate a variable offset for the  
amplifier output. This DAC is guaranteed to be monotonic.  
To preserve the ratiometric nature of the input signal, the DAC  
references are driven from VSS and VDD, and the DAC output  
can swing from VSS (Code 0) to VDD (Code 255). The 8-bit  
resolution is equivalent to 0.39% of the difference between  
VDD and VSS, for example, 19.5 mV with a 5 V supply. The  
DAC output voltage (VDAC) is given approximately by  
Code  
6.4 127

A3, R4, R5, R6, R7, P3, and P4 form the second gain stage of  
the differential amplifier. A3 is also an auto-zeroed op amp that  
minimizes input offset errors. P3 and P4 are digital potentiometers  
that allow the second stage gain to be varied from 17.5 to 200 in  
eight steps (see Table 7). R4, R5, R6, R7, P3, and P4 each have a  
similar temperature coefficient; therefore, the second stage gain  
temperature coefficient is lower than 100 ppm/°C.

where the temperature coefficient of VDAC is lower than  
200 ppm/°C.  
The amplifier output voltage (VOUT) is given by  
RF together with an external capacitor, connected between  
FILT/DIGOUT and VSS or VDD, form a low-pass filter. The  
filtered signal is buffered by A4 to give a low impedance output  
at VOUT. RF is nominally 18 kΩ, allowing an 880 Hz low-pass  
filter to be implemented by connecting a 10 nF external capacitor  
between FILT/DIGOUT and VSS or between FILT/DIGOUT  
and VDD. If low-pass filtering is not needed, the FILT/DIGOUT  
pin must be left floating.  
VOUT = GAIN (VPOS VNEG) + VDAC

where GAIN is the product of the first and second stage gains.

A5 implements a voltage buffer that provides the positive supply  
to A4, the amplifier output buffer. Its function is to limit VOUT  
to a maximum value, useful for driving ADCs operating on  
supply voltages lower than VDD. The input to A5, VCLAMP,  
has a very high input resistance. It should be connected to a  
known voltage and not left floating. However, the high input  
impedance allows the clamp voltage to be set using a high  
impedance source, such as a potential divider. If the maximum  
value of VOUT does not need to be limited, VCLAMP should  
be connected to VDD.

OPEN WIRE FAULT DETECTION  
FLOATING VPOS, VNEG, OR VCLAMP FAULT  
DETECTION  
The inputs to A1 and A2, VNEG and VPOS, each have a com-  
parator to detect whether VNEG or VPOS exceeds a threshold  
voltage, nominally VDD − 2.0 V. If (VNEG > VDD − 2.0 V) or  
(VPOS > VDD − 2.0 V), VOUT is clamped to VSS. The output  
current limit circuit is disabled in this mode, but the maximum  
sink current is approximately 10 mA when VDD = 5 V. The i nput s  
to A1 and A2, VNEG and VPOS, are also pulled up to VDD by  
currents IP1 and IP2. These are both nominally 49 nA and  
matched to within 3 nA. If the inputs to A1 or A2 are accidentally  
left floating, as with an open wire fault, IP1 and IP2 pull them  
to VDD, which would cause VOUT to swing to VSS, allowing  
this fault to be detected. It is not possible to disable IP1 and IP2,  
nor the clamping of VOUT to VSS, when VNEG or VPOS  
approaches VDD.  
A floating fault condition at the VPOS, VNEG, or VCLAMP  
pins is detected by using a low current to pull a floating input  
into an error voltage range, defined in the Shorted Wire Fault  
Detection section. In this way, the VOUT pin is shorted to VSS  
when a floating input is detected. Table 9 lists the currents used.

DEVICE PROGRAMMING  
Digital Interface  
SHORTED WIRE FAULT DETECTION  
The AD8556 provides fault detection when VPOS, VNEG, or  
VCLAMP shorts to VDD and VSS. Figure 48 shows the voltage  
regions at VPOS, VNEG, and VCLAMP that trigger an error  
condition. When an error condition occurs, the VOUT pin is  
shorted to VSS. Table 8 lists the voltage levels shown in Figure 48.  
The digital interface allows the first stage gain, second stage  
gain, and output offset to be adjusted and allows desired values  
for these parameters to be permanently stored by selectively  
blowing polysilicon fuses. To minimize pin count and board  
space, a single-wire digital interface is used. The digital input pin,  
DIGIN, has hysteresis to minimize the possibility of inadvertent  
triggering with slow signals. It also has a pull-down current sink  
to allow it to be left floating when programming is not being  
performed. The pull-down ensures inactive status of the digital  
input by forcing a dc low voltage on DIGIN.

A short pulse at DIGIN from low to high and back to low again,  
such as between 50 ns and 10 µs long, loads 0 into the shift register.  
A long pulse at DIGIN, such as 50 µs or longer, loads 1 into the  
shift register. The time between pulses should be at least 10 µs.  
Assuming VSS = 0 V, voltages at DIGIN between VSS and 0.2 ×  
VDD are recognized as a low, and voltages at DIGIN between  
0.8 × VDD and VDD are recognized as a high. The timing  
diagram example in Figure 49 shows the waveform for entering  
code 010011 into the shift register.

12-Bit End of Packet 0111 1111 1110  
A 38-bit serial word is used, divided into 6 fields. Assuming  
each bit can be loaded in 60 µs, the 38-bit serial word transfers  
in 2.3 ms. Table 11 summarizes the word format.  
Field 3 breaks up the data and ensures that no data combination  
can inadvertently trigger the start-of-packet and end-of-packet  
fields. Field 0 should be written first and Field 5 written last.  
Field 0 and Field 5 are the start-of-packet field and end-of-  
packet field, respectively. Matching the start-of-packet field with  
1000 0000 0001 and the end-of-packet field with 0111 1111  
1110 ensures that the serial word is valid and enables decoding  
of the other fields.  
Within each field, the MSB must be written first and the LSB  
written last. The shift register features power-on reset to minimize  
the risk of inadvertent programming; power-on reset occurs  
when VDD is between 0.7 V and 2.2 V.

AD8556  
Initial State  
At least 10 µF (tantalum type) of decoupling capacitance is  
needed across the power pins of the device during programming.  
The capacitance can be on the programming apparatus as long  
as it is within 2 inches of the device being programmed. An  
additional 0.1 µF (ceramic type) in parallel with the 10 µF is  
recommended within ½ inch of the device being programmed.  
A minimum period of 1 ms should be allowed for each fuse to  
blow. There is no need to measure the supply current during  
programming.  
Initially, all the polysilicon fuses are intact. Each parameter has  
the value 0 assigned (see Table 12).  
Table 12. Initial State Before Programming  
Second Stage Gain Code = 0  
First stage gain code = 0  
Output offset code = 0  
Master fuse = 0  
Second Stage Gain = 17.5  
First stage gain = 4.0  
Output offset = VSS  
Master fuse not blown  
The best way to verify correct programming is to use the read  
mode to read back the programmed values. Then, remeasure  
the gain and offset to verify these values. Programmed fuses  
have no effect on the gain and output offset until the master  
fuse is blown. After blowing the master fuse, the gain and  
output offset are determined solely by the blown fuses, and  
the simulation mode is permanently deactivated.  
When power is applied to a device, parameter values are taken  
either from internal registers, if the master fuse is not blown, or  
from the polysilicon fuses, if the master fuse is blown. Programmed  
values have no effect until the master fuse is blown. The internal  
registers feature power-on reset; therefore, the unprogrammed  
devices enter a known state after power-up. Power-on reset  
occurs when VDD is between 0.7 V and 2.2 V.  
Parameters are programmed by setting Field 1 to 10, selecting  
the desired parameter in Field 2, and selecting a single bit with  
the value 1 in Field 4.  
Simulation Mode  
The simulation mode allows any parameter to be temporarily  
changed. These changes are retained until the simulated value is  
reprogrammed, the power is removed, or the master fuse is  
blown. Parameters are simulated by setting Field 1 to 01, selecting  
the desired parameter in Field 2, and the desired value for the  
parameter in Field 4. Note that a value of 11 for Field 2 is ignored  
during the simulation mode. Examples of temporary settings  
are as follows:  
As an example, suppose the user wants to permanently set the  
second stage gain to 50. Parameter 00 needs to have the value  
0000 0011 assigned. Two bits have the value 1; therefore, two  
fuses need to be blown. Because only one fuse can be blown at a  
time, this code can be used to blow one fuse:  
1000 0000 0001 10 00 10 0000 0010 0111 1111 1110.  
The MOS switch that blows the fuse closes when the complete  
packet is recognized and opens when the start-of-packet,  
dummy, or end-of-packet fields are no longer valid. After 1 ms,  
this second code is entered to blow the second fuse:  
Setting the second stage gain code (Parameter 00) to 011 and  
the second stage gain to 50 produces:  
1000 0000 0001 01 00 10 0000 0011 0111 1111 1110.  
Setting the first stage gain code (Parameter 01) to 000 1011  
and the first stage gain to 4.166 produces:  
1000 0000 0001 01 01 10 0000 1011 0111 1111 1110.  
1000 0000 0001 10 00 10 0000 0001 0111 1111 1110.  
To permanently set the first stage gain to a nominal value of  
4.151, Parameter 01 needs to have the value 000 1011 assigned.  
Three fuses need to be blown, and the following codes are used,  
with a 1 ms delay after each code:  
A first stage gain of 4.166 with a second stage gain of 50 gives a  
total gain of 208.3. This gain has a maximum tolerance of 2.5%.  
Set the output offset code (Parameter 10) to 0100 0000 and  
the output offset to 1.260 V when VDD = 5 V and VSS = 0 V.  
This output offset has a maximum tolerance of 0.8%:  
1000 0000 0001 01 10 10 0100 0000 0111 1111 1110.  
1000 0000 0001 10 01 10 0000 1000 0111 1111 1110  
1000 0000 0001 10 01 10 0000 0010 0111 1111 1110  
1000 0000 0001 10 01 10 0000 0001 0111 1111 1110.  
To permanently set the output offset to a nominal value of  
1.260 V when VDD = 5 V and VSS = 0 V, Parameter 10 needs to  
have the value 0100 0000 assigned. If one fuse needs to be  
blown, use the following code:  
Programming Mode  
Intact fuses give a bit value of 0. Bits with a desired value of 1  
need to have the associated fuse blown. Because a relatively  
large current is needed to blow a fuse, only one fuse can be  
reliably blown at a time. Therefore, a given parameter value may  
need several 38-bit words to allow reliable programming. A  
5.25 V (±0.25 V) supply is required when blowing fuses to  
minimize the on resistance of the internal MOS switches that  
blow the fuse. The power supply voltage must not exceed the  
absolute maximum rating and must be able to deliver 250 mA  
of current.  
1000 0000 0001 10 10 10 0100 0000 0111 1111 1110.  
Finally, to blow the master fuse to deactivate the simulation  
mode and prevent further programming, use code:  
1000 0000 0001 10 11 10 0000 0001 0111 1111 1110.  
There are 20 programmable fuses. Because each fuse requires  
1 ms to blow, and each serial word can be loaded in 2.3 ms,  
the maximum time needed to program the fuses can be as  
low as 66 ms.

Data Sheet  
Parity Error Detection  
The 18-bit data signal (VA0 to VA2, VB0 to VB6, and VC0 to  
VC7) is fed to an 18-input exclusive-OR gate (Cell EOR18).  
The output of Cell EOR18 is the DAT_SUM signal. If there is  
an even number of 1s in the 18-bit word, DAT_SUM = 0; and if  
there is an odd number of 1s in the 18-bit word, DAT_SUM = 1.  
See Table 13 for examples.  
A parity check is used to determine whether the programmed  
data of an AD8556 is valid, or whether data corruption has  
occurred in the nonvolatile memory. Figure 50 shows the  
schematic implemented in the AD8556.  
VA0 to VA2 is the 3-bit control signal for the second stage gain,  
VB0 to VB6 is the 7-bit control signal for the first stage gain,  
and VC0 to VC7 is the 8-bit control signal for the output offset.  
PFUSE is the signal from the parity fuse, and MFUSE is the  
signal from the master fuse.  
After the second stage gain, first stage gain, and output offset  
are programmed, compute DAT_SUM and set the parity bit  
equal to DAT_SUM. If DAT_SUM is 0, the parity fuse should  
not be blown in order for the PFUSE signal to be 0. If DAT_SUM is  
1, the parity fuse should be blown to set the PFUSE signal to 1.  
The code to blow the parity fuse is:  
The function of the 2-input AND gate (Cell AND2) is to ignore  
the output of the parity circuit (PAR_SUM signal) when the  
master fuse is not blown. PARITY_ERROR is set to 0 when  
MFUSE = 0. In the simulation mode, for example, parity check  
is disabled. After the master fuse is blown, that is, after the  
AD8556 is programmed, the output from the parity circuit  
(PAR_SUM signal) is fed to PARITY_ERROR. When  
PARITY_ERROR is 0, the AD8556 behaves as a programmed  
amplifier. When PARITY_ERROR is 1, a parity error is detected,  
and VOUT is connected to VSS.  
1000 0000 0001 10 11 10 0000 0100 01111111 1110.  
After setting the parity bit, the master fuse can be blown to  
prevent further programming, using the code:  
1000 0000 0001 10 11 10 0000 0001 0111 1111 1110.  
Signal PAR_SUM is the output of the 2-input exclusive-OR gate  
(Cell EOR2). After the master fuse is blown, set PARITY_ERROR  
to PAR_SUM. As previously mentioned, the AD8556 behaves as  
a programmed amplifier when PARITY_ERROR = 0 (no parity  
error). On the other hand, VOUT is connected to VSS when a  
parity error is detected, that is, when PARITY_ERROR = 1.

AD8556  
Read Mode  
It is theoretically possible, though very unlikely, for a fuse  
to be incompletely blown during programming, assuming the  
required conditions are met. In this situation, the fuse could  
have a medium resistance, neither low nor high, and a voltage  
of approximately 1.5 V could be developed across the fuse.  
Therefore, the OTP cell could output Logic 0 or Logic 1, depending  
on temperature, supply voltage, and other variables.  
The values stored by the polysilicon fuses can be sent to the  
FILT/DIGOUT pin to verify correct programming. Normally,  
the FILT/DIGOUT pin is only connected to the second gain stage  
output via RF. During read mode, however, the FILT/DIGOUT pin  
is also connected to the output of a shift register to allow the  
polysilicon fuse contents to be read. Because VOUT is a buffered  
version of FILT/DIGOUT, VOUT also outputs a digital signal  
during read mode.  
To detect this undesirable situation, the sense current can be  
lowered by a factor of 4 using a specific code. The voltage  
developed across the fuse would then change from 1.5 V to  
0.38 V, and the output of the OTP would be Logic 0 instead of  
the expected Logic 1 from a blown fuse. Fuses blown correctly  
would still output Logic 1. In this way, fuses blown incorrectly  
can be detected. Another specific code would return the sense  
current to the normal (larger) value. The sense current cannot  
be permanently programmed to the low value. When the AD8556  
is powered up, the sense current defaults to the high value.  
Read mode is entered by setting Field 1 to 11 and selecting the  
desired parameter in Field 2. Field 4 is ignored. The parameter  
value, stored in the polysilicon fuses, is loaded into an internal  
shift register, and the MSB of the shift register is connected to  
the FILT/DIGOUT pin. Pulses at DIGIN shift out the shift  
register contents to the FILT/DIGOUT pin, allowing the 8‒bit  
parameter value to be read after seven additional pulses; shifting  
occurs on the falling edge of DIGIN. An eighth pulse at DIGIN  
disconnects FILT/DIGOUT from the shift register and terminates  
the read mode. If a parameter value is less than eight bits long,  
the MSBs of the shift register are padded with 0s.  
The low sense current code is:  
1000 0000 0001 00 00 10 XXXX XXX1 0111 1111 1110.  
The normal (high) sense current code is:  
For example, to read the second stage gain, this code is used:  
1000 0000 0001 11 00 10 0000 0000 0111 1111 1110. Because  
the second stage gain parameter value is only three bits long,  
the FILT/DIGOUT pin has a value of 0 when this code is  
entered, and remains 0 during four additional pulses at DIGIN.  
The fifth, sixth, and seventh pulses at DIGIN return the 3-bit  
value at FILT/DIGOUT, the seventh pulse returns the LSB. An  
eighth pulse at DIGIN terminates the read mode.  
1000 0000 0001 00 00 10 XXXX XXX0 0111 1111 1110.  
Programming Procedure  
For reliable fuse programming, it is imperative to follow the  
programming procedure requirements, especially the proper  
supply voltage during programming.  
1. When programming the AD8556, the temperature of the  
device must be between 10°C and 40°C.  
2. Set VDD and VSS to the desired values in the application.  
Use simulation mode to test and determine the desired  
codes for the second stage gain, first stage gain, and output  
offset. The nominal values for these parameters are shown  
in Table 6, Table 7, Equation 2, and Equation 3; use the  
codes corresponding to these values as a starting point.  
However, because actual parameter values for given codes  
vary from device to device, some fine tuning is necessary  
for the best possible accuracy.  
Sense Current  
A sense current is sent across each polysilicon fuse to determine  
whether it has been blown. When the voltage across the fuse is  
less than approximately 1.5 V, the fuse is considered not blown,  
and Logic 0 is output from the OTP cell. When the voltage across  
the fuse is greater than approximately 1.5 V, the fuse is considered  
blown, and Logic 1 is output.  
When the AD8556 is manufactured, all fuses have a low  
resistance. When a sense current is sent through the fuse, a  
voltage less than 0.1 V is developed across the fuse, which is  
much lower than 1.5 V; therefore, Logic 0 is output from the  
OTP cell. When a fuse is electrically blown, it should have a  
very high resistance. When the sense current is applied to the  
blown fuse, the voltage across the fuse should be larger than  
1.5 V; therefore, Logic 1 is output from the OTP cell.  
One way to choose these values is to set the output offset  
to an approximate value, such as Code 128 for midsupply,  
to allow the required gain to be determined. Then set the  
second stage gain so the minimum first stage gain (Code 0)  
gives a lower gain than required, and the maximum first  
stage gain (Code 127) gives a higher gain than required.  
After choosing the second stage gain, the first stage gain  
can be chosen to fine tune the total gain. Finally, the output  
offset can be adjusted to give the desired value. After  
determining the desired codes for second stage gain,  
first stage gain, and output offset, the device is ready for  
permanent programming.

6. Calculate the error (in the number of the first stage gain

3. Set VSS to 0 V and VDD to 5.25 V (±0.25 V). Power  
supplies should be capable of supplying 250 mA at the  
required voltage and properly bypassed as described  
in the Programming Mode section. Use program mode to  
permanently enter the desired codes for the first stage gain,  
second stage gain, and output offset. Blow the parity bit  
fuse if necessary (see Parity Error Detection section). Blow  
the master fuse to allow the AD8556 to read data from the  
fuses and to prevent further programming.

2. Use Equation 2 to set the output offset code CO1 such that  
the output offset is nominally OA.  
First, determine the desired gain:  
1. Determine the desired gain, GA (using the measurements  
obtained from the simulation).  
3. Measure the output offset, OB. OB should be within  
3% of OA.  
2. Use Table 7 to determine G2, the second stage gain, such  
that (4.00 × 1.04) < (GA/G2) < (6.4/1.04). This ensures the  
first and last codes for the first stage gain are not used,  
thereby allowing enough first stage gain codes within each  
second stage gain range to adjust for the 3% accuracy.  
4. Calculate the error (in relative terms) EO1 = OB/OA − 1.  
5. Calculate the error (in the number of the output offset  
codes) CEO1 = EO1/0.00392.  
6. Set the output offset code to CO1 − CEO1  
.
Next, set the second stage gain:  
7. Measure the output offset, OC. OC should be closer to OA  
than to OB.  
1. Use the simulation mode to set the second stage gain to G2.  
2. Set the output offset to allow the AD8556 gain to be  
measured, for example, use Code 128 to set it to  
midsupply.  
8. Calculate the error (in relative terms) EO2 = OC/OA − 1.  
9. Calculate the error (in the number of the output offset  
codes) CEO2 = EO2/0.00392.  
3. Use Table 6 or Equation 1 to set the first stage gain code  
CG1, so the first stage gain is nominally GA/G2.  
10. Set the output offset code to CO1 − CEO1 − CEO2. The  
resulting offset should be within one code of OA.

AD8556  
EMI/RFI PERFORMANCE  
Real-world applications must work with ever increasing  
radio/magnetic frequency interference (RFI and EMI). In  
situations where signal strength is low and transmission lines  
are long, instrumentation amplifiers, such as the AD8556, are  
needed to extract weak, small differential signals riding on  
common-mode noise and interference. Additionally, wires and  
PCB traces act as antennas and pick up high frequency EMI  
signals. The longer the wire, the larger the voltage it picks up.  
The amount of voltages picked up is dependent on the impedances  
at the wires, as well as the EMI frequency. These high frequency  
voltages are then passed into the in-amp through its pins. All  
instrumentation amplifiers can rectify high frequency out-of-  
band signals. Unfortunately, the EMI/RFI rectification occurs  
because amplifiers do not have any significant common-mode  
rejection above 100 kHz. Once these high frequency signals are  
rectified, they appear as dc offset errors at the output.  
The AD8556 features internal EMI filters on the VNEG, VPOS,  
FILT, and VCLAMP pins. These built-in filters on the pins limit  
the interference bandwidth and provide good RFI suppression  
without reducing performance within the pass-band of the  
instrumentation amplifier. A functional diagram of the  
AD8556 along with its EMI/RFI filters is shown in Figure 51.  
The AD8556 has built-in filters on its inputs, VCLAMP, and  
filter pins. The first-order, low-pass filters inside the AD8556  
are useful to reject high frequency EMI signals picked up by  
wires and PCB traces outside the AD8556. The most sensitive  
pin of any amplifier to RFI/EMI signal is the noninverting pin.  
Signals present at this pin appear as common-mode signals and  
create problems.  
The filters built at the input of the AD8556 have two different  
bandwidths: common mode and differential mode. The common-  
mode bandwidth defines what a common-mode RF signal sees  
between the two inputs tied together and ground. The EMI  
filters placed on the input pins of the AD8556 reject EMI/RFI  
suppressions that appear as common-mode signals.

where EMI/RFI signals are present, a part was programmed  
with a gain of 70 and a dc offset of 2.5 V to produce a VOUT of  
0 V. A test circuit like that shown in Figure 52 was used.  
The differential bandwidth defines the frequency response of  
the filters with a differential signal applied between the two  
inputs, VPOS (that is, +IN ) and VNEG (that is, –IN). Figure 54  
shows the circuit used to test for AD8556 EMI/RFI susceptibility.  
The part is programmed as previously stated during the  
common-mode testing.  
Figure 52 simulates the presence of a noisy common-mode  
signal, and Figure 53 shows the response dc values at VOUT.

To make a board robust against EMI, the leads at VPOS and  
VNEG should be as similar as possible. In this way, any EMI  
received by the VPOS and VNEG pins will be similar (that is, a  
common-mode input), and rejected by the AD8556. Furthermore,  
additional filtering at the VPOS and VNEG pins should give a  
better reduction of unwanted behavior compared with filtering  
at the other pins.
