TIDA-01541: Question on use of the AMC1311

Jonathan Tillack

Part Number: TIDA-01541
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AMC1311,

Hello,

I am trying to understand the input circuitry on the two AMC1311 parts (U12 and U15) used in TIDA-01541. In both cases, the SHTDN pin (pin 3) is connected to part of the input differential filter. I would expect that the SHTDN pin is connected directly to ground. Can you explain why the SHTDN pin is used in the input signal path?

Thanks in advance!

    Hello Jonathan,

    The input to the AMC1311 is single ended and thus will require only a single ended RC filter. R82 can be made zero ohm and the SHTDN pin gets connected directly to VDC-. The SHTDN pin has to be connected to GND of the device unless you would like to use it for any fault signal.
