Gain and Filter Stage
The signal gain and filter stage is designed to have a DC
gain of 4.53 V/V, with a cut-off frequency of typically 500 Hz.

Cold Sensor
Typically, a Lambda sensor will have an impedance of less
than 10 k when operating at temperatures between 300˚C,
and 500˚C. When a Lambda sensor is not at operating
temperature, its impedance can be more than 10 Meg . Any
voltage signal that may be developed is seriously attenu-
ated. During this high impedance condition the LM9040 will
provide a default output voltage.
Each amplifier input has a bias charge applied across the
Differential Input Impedance (Z
redistribution through the switched capacitor network. This
bias charge is a ratio of V

typically 2.025V.

Lambda sensor is heated, and the sensor impedance begins
to drop, the voltage signal from the sensor will become the
dominate signal.
Output Resistance
With normal operation, each output has typically 2.5 k
resistance. This resistance, along with an external capacitor,
form a RC low pass filter to remove any clock noise from the
output signal. An external output filter capacitor value of
0.01 µF is recommended. Additionally, the output resistance
will provide current limiting for the output stage should it
become shorted to Ground or V
Any DC loading of the output will cause an error in the
measured output voltage. This error will be equal to the I • R
drop across the output resistance:
Open Input Pins Defaults
In any remote sensor application it is desirable to be able to
deal with the possibility of open connections between the
sensor and the control module. The LM9040 is capable of
providing an output voltage scaled to V

inputs handle the open circuit condition differently. The

For the case of an open connection of the non-inverting
input, the device would react the same as for the Cold
Sensor condition. The internal bias voltage across Z
cause the output voltage to be at a value defined by V
