Typical Applications
LMP8350MA/NOPB-Q1 is suitable for 6 applications: Precision Data Acquisition Front End, Industrial Process Control, Test and Measurement Instrumentation, Medical Signal Acquisition, Battery-Powered Portable Instruments, Automotive Data Acquisition (Q1 variant consideration).
Precision Data Acquisition Front End
The LMP8350's core purpose is driving high-performance precision ADCs, converting single-ended or differential sensor outputs into a balanced differential signal that maximizes ADC SNR and THD. Its ultra-low distortion specification keeps harmonic content below the converter's noise floor in 16- to 18-bit acquisition systems. The three selectable power modes let a DAQ system run in high-power mode during conversions and drop to a lower-power mode between scans, saving system-level energy without a second amplifier stage. Place it immediately before the ADC input with a small RC filter to absorb sampled charge kickback.
Recommended
Industrial Process Control
In industrial analog modules, transducer signals must travel to a controller ADC with minimal added distortion and drift. The LMP8350's -40C to +85C rating and fully-differential architecture reject common-mode noise picked up on long field wiring, improving measurement repeatability. Its PowerWise mode-enable feature allows multi-channel systems to bias only active channels at high performance. The 8-SOIC package fits dense analog terminal boards where board area is constrained. Use 1% gain-setting resistors and a clean low-noise supply to preserve the amplifier's precision over the full industrial temperature range.
Recommended
Test and Measurement Instrumentation
Bench instruments, digitizers, and automated test equipment require signal chains whose distortion contributions stay far below the device under test's error budget. The LMP8350's ultra-low distortion in high-power mode makes it well suited as the ADC driver in digitizer front ends operating into 16-bit-plus converters. The selectable power modes let battery-powered portable instruments extend runtime while reserving full AC performance for capture events. Its fully-differential output also improves immunity to ground potential differences between analog front end and converter sections in rack-based systems. Characterize THD at your exact frequency and gain using the datasheet curves.
Recommended
Medical Signal Acquisition
Medical diagnostic equipment such as patient monitors and imaging front ends demands clean differential signal paths with very low harmonic content so physiological features are not masked by amplifier-induced artifacts. The LMP8350's fully-differential topology cancels common-mode interference from mains coupling and nearby switching supplies, while its ultra-low distortion preserves waveform fidelity into precision converters. The selectable power modes help portable and wearable medical devices balance measurement quality against battery life. Note the +85C upper operating limit is well beyond body-temperature requirements, and always apply the isolation and safety design practices mandated for patient-connected equipment.
Recommended
Battery-Powered Portable Instruments
Portable analyzers and handheld meters benefit directly from the LMP8350's PowerWise architecture: the mode enable pin allows firmware to switch between a low-power monitoring state and a high-performance measurement state on demand, something fixed-bias amplifiers cannot do. This avoids the classic compromise of over-biasing an amplifier all day just to meet peak distortion specs during a short acquisition window. The compact 8-SOIC also conserves PCB area in handheld enclosures. Design the mode pin with a defined logic drive or pulldown so the device always powers up in a known state, and verify settle time after mode transitions in your acquisition firmware timing.
Recommended
Automotive Data Acquisition (Q1 variant consideration)
For automotive-grade data acquisition nodes, the -Q1 suffix on the requested part number suggests a qualification path, but the verified web data covers only the standard LMP8350MA/NOPB; confirm AEC-Q100 status directly with TI before automotive deployment. Within the -40C to +85C verified range, the device suits in-cabin and bench-level acquisition: its differential drive rejects alternator and inverter noise common in vehicle power environments, and the ultra-low distortion supports high-resolution current, position, and acoustic sensing into precision ADCs. Use star-grounded analog layout and RC filtering after the amplifier to survive conducted transients on the sensor path.

Key Differentiators

- Ultra-low distortion focus for precision ADCs (vs THS4531A)
- PowerWise family architecture (vs LMP8350MAX/NOPB)
Design Notes
The LMP8350's distortion performance depends on the selected power mode, gain, and load. Use the high-power mode when driving precision ADCs at higher input frequencies, and confirm THD from the datasheet typical curves at your exact conditions. Keep gain-setting resistors at 1% tolerance or better, and keep the feedback loop area small to minimize parasitic capacitance that degrades distortion.
Place a 0.1 uF ceramic decoupling capacitor directly at each supply pin plus bulk 2.2 uF to 10 uF locally. Keep the VOCM pin decoupled with 0.1 uF to stabilize the output common-mode. Route differential output traces as matched pairs to the ADC, with a short RC (e.g., 10-25 ohm and small C) between amplifier outputs and ADC inputs to isolate sampled charge kickback.
Drive the mode enable pin from a defined logic level at all times - a floating mode pin can cause the amplifier to start in an unintended power mode or oscillate during startup. Also, the operating range is -40C to +85C; do not assume automotive grade from the -Q1 request string without written TI confirmation, since the verified data covers only the standard LMP8350MA/NOPB.
Compliance Information
