What is the function of Pin 1 (V-) on the AD8616ARZ? Pin 1 (V-) is the negative supply voltage pin, typically connected to ground or a negative voltage source. How do I connect the inverting input (Pin 2)? The inverting input (Pin 2) should be connected to the input signal for inverted amplification. You must place a feedback resistor to control gain. What is the purpose of Pin 3 (Out)? Pin 3 is the output pin of the op-amp, which provides the amplified signal corresponding to the differential inputs. Can I use the AD8616ARZ with a single supply? Yes, you can use the AD8616ARZ with a single supply voltage. The negative pin (Pin 1) will be connected to ground, and Pin 4 to the positive voltage. What is the function of Pin 4 (V+)? Pin 4 is the positive supply voltage pin, typically connected to the positive voltage source for the op-amp. What does "NC" mean on Pin 5? "NC" stands for "No Connection." Pin 5 is not internally connected and has no function, so it should be left unconnected. How do I use Pin 6 (In+)? Pin 6 is the non-inverting input. The input signal applied to this pin will not be inverted, but will instead be amplified in the same phase. How can I adjust the offset voltage using Pins 7 and 8? Pins 7 and 8 are used for offset nulling. By connecting a potentiometer between these pins, you can adjust the internal offset voltage to minimize errors in precision applications.
