APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The resistors and connections provided on the AD8271 offer
abundant versatility through the variety of configurations that
are possible.
DIFFERENCE AMPLIFIER CONFIGURATIONS
The AD8271 can be placed in difference amplifier configurations
with gains of ½, 1, and 2. Figure 45 through Figure 47 show
sample difference amplifier configurations referenced to ground.

The AD8271 can also be referred to a combination of reference
voltages. For example, the reference can be set at 2.5 V, using
just 5 V and GND. Some of the possible configurations are
shown in Figure 48 through Figure 50. Note that the output
is not internally tied to a feedback path, so any of the 10 k
resistors on the inverting input can be used in the feedback
network. This flexibility allows for more efficient board lay-
out options.
