This user's guide describes the characteristics, operation, and use of two evaluation modules (EVMs) that are compatible with a variety of instrumentation amplifiers (IAs). The schematics and bills of material (BOM) are identical for both EVMs. The only difference is that one EVM is compatible with devices in VSSOP-8 (DGK) packages, and the other EVM is compatible with devices in SOIC-8 (D) packages. They are designed to evaluate the performance of the devices in both single- and dual-supply configurations. This document includes the schematic, printed circuit board (PCB) layouts, and BOM. Throughout this document the terms evaluation board, evaluation module, and EVM are synonymous with the Universal IA EVM.
