Evaluation Board Key Features

C5
The ISL282X7SOICEVAL2Z is designed to enable the IC
to operate from a single supply, +4.5VDC to +40VDC or
from split supplies, ±2.25VDC to ±20V. The board is
configured for a dual op amp connected for differential
input with a closed loop gain of 10. A single external
reference voltage (VREF) pin and provisions for a
user-selectable voltage divider - filter are included.

FIGURE 1. POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT
Amplifier Configuration (Figure 2)
The schematic of 1/2 of the op-amp with the components
supplied is shown in Figure 2. The circuit implements a
differential input amp with a closed loop gain of 10. The
circuit can operate from a single supply or from dual
supplies. The VREF pin must be connected to ground to
establish a ground referenced input for dual supply
operation, or can be externally set to any reference level for
single supply operation. VREF should not be left floating.
Power Supplies (Figure 1)
External power connections are made through the +V, -V,
VREF and Ground connections on the evaluation board.
For single supply operation, the -V and Ground pins are
tied together to the power supply negative terminal. For
split supplies, +V and -V terminals connect to their
respective power supply terminals. De-coupling capacitors
C2 and C4 connect to their respective supplies through
R16 and R31 zero-ohm resistors. These resistors are 0Ω
