Replacement verdict
Compatible functional replacement candidate
The AD620BR and AD620AR-REEL are functionally interchangeable instrumentation amplifiers sharing the same pinout, package, and gain equation, with the BR grade offering tighter offset voltage and gain error tolerances. The AR-REEL is a valid drop-in substitute where the tighter BR-grade DC precision is not mandatory, though grade-dependent specifications should be validated against the application's error budget.

Key electrical and mechanical differences between the two devices
| Parameter | AD620BR | AD620AR-REEL | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage (max) | 50 µV | 125 µV | Lower input offset voltage improves DC accuracy; the BR grade offers tighter offset than the AR grade. |
| Input Offset Voltage Drift (max) | 0.6 µV/°C | 1.0 µV/°C | Lower drift maintains accuracy over temperature; the BR grade is more stable across the operating range. |
| Input Bias Current (max) | 1.0 nA | 2.0 nA | Lower bias current reduces errors in high-impedance source applications; the BR grade is superior here. |
| Input Noise Voltage (1 kHz) | 9 nV/√Hz | 13 nV/√Hz | Lower voltage noise improves signal-to-noise ratio in low-level signal amplification; the BR grade is quieter. |
| Gain Error (G=1000, max) | 0.15% | 0.5% | Lower gain error provides more accurate amplification at high gains; the BR grade is more precise. |
| CMRR (G=1000, min) | 120 dB | 110 dB | Higher common-mode rejection improves performance in noisy environments; the BR grade rejects interference better. |
| Supply Voltage Range | ±2.3 V to ±18 V | ±2.3 V to ±18 V | Both parts support the same supply range, allowing identical power supply design. |
| Gain Range | 1 to 10000 | 1 to 10000 | Identical gain range means both can be used in the same amplifier configurations. |
| Operating Temperature Range | -40 °C to +85 °C | -40 °C to +85 °C | Same temperature range ensures both parts are suitable for the same environmental conditions. |
| Package | 8-Lead SOIC | 8-Lead SOIC | Identical package allows drop-in replacement on the same PCB footprint. |

Frequently asked questions
What are the main differences between the AD620BR and AD620AR-REEL?
Both are AD620 instrumentation amplifiers in the same 8-lead SOIC package, but they differ in grade and packaging. The AD620BR is the higher-grade B version with tighter specifications, while the AD620AR-REEL is the A-grade version supplied in tape-and-reel packaging for automated assembly. The B grade offers lower offset voltage, lower offset drift, lower input bias current, higher CMRR, and higher gain accuracy than the A grade.
What are the offset voltage specifications for the AD620BR versus the AD620AR?
The AD620BR has a maximum input offset voltage of 50 µV, while the AD620AR has a maximum input offset voltage of 125 µV. The B grade therefore provides roughly 2.5 times better offset accuracy, which matters in precision low-level signal applications.
How do the offset voltage drift specifications compare?
The AD620BR specifies a maximum input offset voltage drift of 0.6 µV/°C, whereas the AD620AR specifies a maximum drift of 1.0 µV/°C. The lower drift of the B grade improves stability over temperature in precision measurement designs.
How do the input bias current specifications differ between the two grades?
The AD620BR has a maximum input bias current of 1.0 nA, while the AD620AR has a maximum input bias current of 2.0 nA. Lower input bias current in the B grade reduces error in high-impedance source applications.
Do the AD620BR and AD620AR-REEL differ in CMRR and gain accuracy?
Yes. The AD620BR specifies a minimum CMRR of 100 dB (G = 10) and a maximum gain error of 0.15% (G = 10), while the AD620AR specifies a minimum CMRR of 93 dB (G = 10) and a maximum gain error of 0.5% (G = 10). The B grade provides better common-mode rejection and gain precision.
Are the AD620BR and AD620AR-REEL pin-compatible and functionally interchangeable?
Yes. Both devices are AD620 instrumentation amplifiers in the same 8-lead SOIC package with identical pin functions and the same gain equation (G = 49.4 kΩ/RG + 1). They are functionally interchangeable, but the AD620BR provides tighter guaranteed specifications, so a design that requires B-grade performance should not substitute the A grade without verification.
What does the -REEL suffix indicate on the AD620AR-REEL?
The -REEL suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging, which is intended for high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly. The AD620BR is also available in reel packaging under its own ordering code; the -REEL suffix on the AD620AR-REEL refers to packaging format, not to the device grade.
Do both parts share the same supply voltage range and operating temperature range?
Yes. Both the AD620BR and AD620AR-REEL operate from dual supplies of ±2.3 V to ±18 V and are specified over the industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The difference between the two parts is the guaranteed performance grade, not the supply or temperature ratings.
