Single Supply Voltage-to-Frequency Converter
The circuit shown in Figure 4 uses the AD824 to drive a low
power timer, which produces a stable pulse of width t1. The
positive going output pulse is integrated by R1-C1 and used as
one input to the AD824, which is connected as a differential
integrator. The other input (nonloading) is the unknown voltage,
VIN. The AD824 output drives the timer trigger input, closing
the overall feedback loop.

Typical AD824 bias currents of 2 pA allow megaohm-range
source impedances with negligible dc errors. Linearity errors on
the order of 0.01% full scale can be achieved with this circuit.
This performance is obtained with a 5 V single supply, which
delivers less than 3 mA to the entire circuit.

Single Supply Programmable Gain Instrumentation Amplifier
The AD824 can be configured as a single supply instrumenta-
tion amplifier that is able to operate from single supplies down
to 5 V or dual supplies up to ±15 V. AD824 FET inputs’ 2 pA
bias currents minimize offset errors caused by high unbalanced
source impedances.

An array of precision thin-film resistors sets the in amp gain to
be either 10 or 100. These resistors are laser-trimmed to ratio
match to 0.01% and have a maximum differential TC of 5 ppm/∞C.
