Good layout technique optimizes performance by
decreasing the amount of stray capacitance at the
instrumentation amplifier’s gain-setting pins. Excess
capacitance will produce peaking in the amplifier’s fre-
quency response. To decrease stray capacitance, min-
imize trace lengths by placing external components as
close to the instrumentation amplifier as possible. For
best performance, bypass each power supply to
ground with a separate 0.1µF capacitor.
The MAX4194–MAX4197 instrumentation amplifiers can
be used in various signal-conditioning circuits for ther-
mocouples, PT100s, strain gauges (displacement sen-
sors), piezoresistive transducers (PRTs), flow sensors,
and bioelectrical applications. Figure 7 shows a simpli-
fied example of how to attach four strain gauges (two
