What
Sensitive
input stages
Low voltage input transistors have high gain and low noise
Protection resistors small to minimize Johnson noise
Differential input is limited by diodes to 0.6V, so large input voltage could
create large currents
External resistors can limit current but increase errors
Careful analysis to balance protection w/accuracy
