INSTRUMENTATION AMPLIFIER
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
● LOW BIAS CURRENT: ±4pA
● LOW QUIESCENT CURRENT: ±450µA
The INA121 is a FET-input, low power instrumentation amplifier offering excellent accuracy. Its versatile
three-op amp design and very small size make it ideal
for a variety of general purpose applications. Low bias
current (±4pA) allows use with high impedance
sources.
● LOW INPUT OFFSET VOLTAGE: ±200µV
● LOW INPUT OFFSET DRIFT: ±2µV/°C
● LOW INPUT NOISE:
20nV/√Hz at f = 1kHz (G =100)
● HIGH CMR: 106dB
● WIDE SUPPLY RANGE: ±2.25V to ±18V
● LOW NONLINEARITY ERROR: 0.001% max
● INPUT PROTECTION TO ±40V
● 8-PIN DIP AND SO-8 SURFACE MOUNT
APPLICATIONS
Gain can be set from 1V to 10,000V/V with a single
external resistor. Internal input protection can withstand up to ±40V without damage.
The INA121 is laser-trimmed for very low offset
voltage (±200µV), low offset drift (±2µV/°C), and
high common-mode rejection (106dB at G = 100). It
operates on power supplies as low as ±2.25V (+4.5V),
allowing use in battery operated and single 5V systems. Quiescent current is only 450µA.
Package options include 8-pin plastic DIP and SO-8
surface mount. All are specified for the –40°C to
+85°C industrial temperature range.

to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may
be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric

INA121
APPLICATION INFORMATION
The 50kΩ term in Equation 1 comes from the sum of the two
internal feedback resistors of A1 and A2. These on-chip
metal film resistors are laser trimmed to accurate absolute
values. The accuracy and temperature coefficient of these
resistors are included in the gain accuracy and drift specifications of the INA121.
Figure 1 shows the basic connections required for operation
of the INA121. Applications with noisy or high impedance
power supplies may require decoupling capacitors close to
the device pins as shown.
The output is referred to the output reference (Ref) terminal
which is normally grounded. This must be a low-impedance
connection to assure good common-mode rejection. A resistance of 8Ω in series with the Ref pin will cause a typical
device to degrade to approximately 80dB CMR (G = 1).
The stability and temperature drift of the external gain
setting resistor, RG, also affects gain. RG’s contribution to
gain accuracy and drift can be directly inferred from the gain
equation (1). Low resistor values required for high gain can
make wiring resistance important. Sockets add to the wiring
resistance which will contribute additional gain error (possibly an unstable gain error) in gains of approximately 100 or
greater.
SETTING THE GAIN
Gain of the INA121 is set by connecting a single external
resistor, RG, connected between pins 1 and 8:
DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE
The typical performance curve “Gain vs Frequency” shows
that, despite its low quiescent current, the INA121 achieves
wide bandwidth, even at high gain. This is due to the
current-feedback topology of the INA121. Settling time also
remains excellent at high gain.

The INA121 provides excellent rejection of high frequency
common-mode signals. The typical performance curve,
“Common-Mode Rejection vs Frequency” shows this behavior. If the inputs are not properly balanced, however,
common-mode signals can be converted to differential sig–
+
nals. Run the VIN
and VIN connections directly adjacent each
other, from the source signal all the way to the input pins. If
possible use a ground plane under both input traces. Avoid
running other potentially noisy lines near the inputs.
Input circuitry must provide a path for this input bias current
if the INA121 is to operate properly. Figure 3 shows various
provisions for an input bias current path. Without a bias
current return path, the inputs will float to a potential which
exceeds the common-mode range of the INA121 and the
input amplifiers will saturate.
If the differential source resistance is low, the bias current
return path can be connected to one input (see the thermocouple example in Figure 3). With higher source impedance,
using two resistors provides a balanced input with possible
advantages of lower input offset voltage due to bias current
and better high-frequency common-mode rejection.
NOISE AND ACCURACY PERFORMANCE
The INA121’s FET input circuitry provides low input bias
current and high speed. It achieves lower noise and higher
accuracy with high impedance sources. With source impedances of 2kΩ to 50kΩ the INA114, INA128, or INA129 may
provide lower offset voltage and drift. For very low source
impedance (≤1kΩ), the INA103 may provide improved
accuracy and lower noise. At very high source impedances
(> 1MΩ) the INA116 is recommended.

OFFSET TRIMMING
The INA121 is laser trimmed for low offset voltage and
drift. Most applications require no external offset adjustment. Figure 2 shows an optional circuit for trimming the
output offset voltage. The voltage applied to Ref terminal is
summed at the output. The op amp buffer provides low
impedance at the Ref terminal to preserve good commonmode rejection. Trim circuits with higher source impedance
should be buffered with an op amp follower circuit to assure
low impedance on the Ref pin.

INPUT COMMON-MODE RANGE
The linear input voltage range of the input circuitry of the
INA121 is from approximately 1.2V below the positive
supply voltage to 2.1V above the negative supply. A differential input voltage causes the output voltage to increase.
The linear input range, however, will be limited by the
output voltage swing of amplifiers A1 and A2. So the linear
common-mode input range is related to the output voltage of
the complete amplifier. This behavior also depends on supply voltage—see typical performance curve “Input Common-Mode Range vs Output Voltage”.
FIGURE 2. Optional Trimming of Output Offset Voltage.
INPUT BIAS CURRENT RETURN PATH
The input impedance of the INA121 is extremely high—
approximately 1012Ω. However, a path must be provided for
the input bias current of both inputs. This input bias current
is typically 4pA. High input impedance means that this input
bias current changes very little with varying input voltage.

INA121
A combination of common-mode and differential input
voltage can cause the output of A1 or A2 to saturate. Figure
4 shows the output voltage swing of A1 and A2 expressed in
terms of a common-mode and differential input voltages.
For applications where input common-mode range must be
maximized, limit the output voltage swing by connecting the
INA121 in a lower gain (see performance curve “Input
Common-Mode Voltage Range vs Output Voltage”). If
necessary, add gain after the INA121 to increase the voltage
swing.
performance curves. Operation at very low supply voltage
requires careful attention to assure that the input voltages
remain within their linear range. Voltage swing requirements
of internal nodes limit the input common-mode range with low
power supply voltage. Typical performance curves, “Input
Common-Mode Range vs Output Voltage” show the range of
linear operation for ±15V, ±5V, and ±2.5V supplies.
INPUT FILTERING
The INA121’s FET input allows use of an R/C input filter
without creating large offsets due to input bias current.
Figure 5 shows proper implementation of this input filter to
preserve the INA121’s excellent high frequency commonmode rejection. Mismatch of the common-mode input time
constant (R1C1 and R2C 2), either from stray capacitance or
mismatched values, causes a high frequency common-mode
signal to be converted to a differential signal. This degrades
common-mode rejection. The differential input capacitor,
C 3, reduces the bandwidth and mitigates the effects of
mismatch in C1 and C 2. Make C 3 much larger than C1 and
C 2. If properly matched, C1 and C2 also improve ac CMR.
Input-overload can produce an output voltage that appears
normal. For example, if an input overload condition drives
both input amplifiers to their positive output swing limit, the
difference voltage measured by the output amplifier will be
near zero. The output of A3 will be near 0V even though both
inputs are overloaded.
LOW VOLTAGE OPERATION
The INA121 can be operated on power supplies as low as
±2.25V. Performance remains excellent with power supplies
ranging from ±2.25V to ±18V. Most parameters vary only
slightly throughout this supply voltage range—see typical
