AMC1336-Q1: Clipping Question on AMC1336-Q1

Hubert Henry, Pecze (Hubie-TSR)
Prodigy 90 points
Part Number: AMC1336-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AMC1336

I’m reviewing our application of the AMC1336 and I see that, in normal operation, the differential input voltage between AINP and AINN will remain within a +/-1V range. During excursions, however (amounting to a few thousand hours of operation – a significant portion of the operating life of the part), the AINP and AINN differential may reach up to +/-2.5V.

Can the AMC1336 operating in “clipping” for extended durations of time, provided that the absolute maximum ratings for the analog input voltage shown in the datasheet?

    Hi Hubert,

    Yes, the AMC1336 can operate under these conditions without damage to the device. The clipping voltage is +/- 1.25 V, so at +/- 2.5 V clipping will occur. However, since this is still below the absolute maximum ratings, the device will not shut down. 

    Best regards,
