NOTES: (1) Stresses above these ratings may cause permanent damage.
Exposure to absolute maximum conditions for extended periods may degrade
device reliability. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the
device at these or any other conditions beyond those specified is not implied.
(2) Input terminals are diode clamped to the power-supply rails. Input signals that
can swing more than 0.5V beyond the supply rails should be current limited to
10mA or less.
ELECTROSTATIC
DISCHARGE SENSITIVITY
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas
Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled
with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits
may be more susceptible to damage because very small
parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its
published specifications.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
SETTING THE GAIN
The INA326 is a 2-stage amplifier with each stage gain set
by R1 and R2, respectively (see Figure 5, “Inside the INA326”,
for details). Overall gain is described by the equation:
Figure 1 shows the basic connections required for operation of
the INA326. A 0.1µF capacitor, placed close to and across the
power-supply pins is strongly recommended for highest accuracy. RoCo is an output filter that minimizes auto-correction
circuitry noise. This output filter may also serve as an antialiasing filter ahead of an Analog-to-Digital (A/D) converter. It
is also optional based on desired precision.
G=2
Resistor values for commonly used gains are shown in
Figure 1. Gain-set resistor values for best performance are
different for +5V single-supply and for ±2.5V dual-supply
operation. Optimum value for R1 can be calculated by:
The INA326 uses a unique internal topology to achieve excellent Common-Mode Rejection (CMR). Unlike conventional
instrumentation amplifiers, CMR is not affected by resistance
in the reference connections or sockets. See “Inside the
INA326” for further detail. To achieve best high-frequency
CMR, minimize capacitance on pins 1 and 8.

Following this design procedure for R1 produces the maximum
possible input stage gain for best accuracy and lowest noise.
Circuit layout and supply bypassing can affect performance.
Minimize the stray capacitance on pins 1 and 8. Use recommended supply bypassing, including a capacitor directly from
pin 7 to pin 4 (V+ to V–), even with dual (split) power supplies
(see Figure 1).
The enable time following shutdown is 75µs plus the settling
time due to filters (see Typical Characteristics, “Input Offset
Voltage vs Warm-up Time”). Disable time is 100µs. This
allows the INA327 to be operated as a “gated” amplifier, or
to have its output multiplexed onto a common output bus.
When disabled, the output assumes a high-impedance state.
INA327 PIN 5
OFFSET VOLTAGE, DRIFT, AND CIRCUIT VALUES
As with other multi-stage instrumentation amplifiers, inputreferred offset voltage depends on gain and circuit values. The
specified offset and drift performance is rated at R1 = 2kΩ,
R2 = 100kΩ, and VS = ±2.5V. Offset voltage and drift for other
circuit values can be estimated from the following equations:
VOS = 10µV + (50nA)(R2)/G
(3)
dVOS/dT = 0.12µV/°C + (0.16nA/°C)(R2)/G
(4)
These equations might imply that offset and drift can be
minimized by making the value of R2 much lower than the
values indicated in Figure 1. These values, however, have
been chosen to assure that the output current into R2 is kept
less than or equal to ±25µA, while maintaining R1’s value
greater than or equal to 2kΩ. Some applications with limited
output voltage swing or low power-supply voltage may allow
lower values for R2, thus providing lower input-referred offset
voltage and offset voltage drift.
Conversely, single-supply operation with R2 grounded requires that R2 values be made larger to assure that current
remains under 25µA. This will increase the input-referred
offset voltage and offset voltage drift.
Pin 5 of the INA327 should be connected to V+ to ensure
proper operation.
DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE
The typical characteristic “Gain vs Frequency” shows that the
INA326 has nearly constant bandwidth regardless of gain.
This results from the bandwidth limiting from the recommended filters.
NOISE PERFORMANCE
Internal auto-correction circuitry eliminates virtually all 1/f
noise (noise that increases at low frequency) in gains of 100
or greater. Noise performance is affected by gain-setting
resistor values. Follow recommendations in the “Setting
Gain” section for best performance.
Total noise is a combination of input stage noise and output
stage noise. When referred to the input, the total mid-band
noise is:
VN = 33nV / Hz +
800nV / Hz
G
(5)
Circuit conditions that cause more than 25µA to flow in R2 will
not cause damage, but may produce more nonlinearity.
The output noise has some 1/f components that affect
performance in gains less than 10. See typical characteristic
“Input-Referred Voltage Noise vs Frequency.”
INA327 ENABLE FUNCTION
High-frequency noise is created by internal auto-correction
circuitry and is highly dependent on the filter characteristics
chosen. This may be the dominant source of noise visible
when viewing the output on an oscilloscope. Low cutoff
frequency filters will provide lowest noise. Figure 3 shows the
typical noise performance as a function of cutoff frequency.
The INA327 can be enabled by applying a logic HIGH
voltage level to the Enable pin. Conversely, a logic LOW
voltage level will disable the amplifier, reducing its supply
current from 2.4mA to typically 2µA. For battery-operated
applications, this feature may be used to greatly reduce the
average current and extend battery life. This pin should be
connected to a valid high or low voltage or driven, not left
open circuit. The Enable pin can be modeled as a CMOS
input gate as in Figure 2.

Applications sensitive to the spectral characteristics of highfrequency noise may require consideration of the spurious
frequencies generated by internal clocking circuitry. “Spurs”
occur at approximately 90kHz and its harmonics (see typical
characteristic “Input-Referred Ripple Spectrum”) which may
be reduced by additional filtering below 1kHz.

Insufficient filtering at pin 5 can cause nonlinearity with large
output voltage swings (very near the supply rails). Noise
must be sufficiently filtered at pin 5 so that noise peaks do not
“hit the rail” and change the average value of the signal.
Figure 3 shows guidelines for filter cutoff frequency.
FIGURE 4. Providing Input Bias Current Return Path.
HIGH-FREQUENCY NOISE
C2 and CO form filters to reduce internally generated autocorrection circuitry noise. Filter frequencies can be chosen to
optimize the trade-off between noise and frequency response of the application, as shown in Figure 3. The cutoff
frequencies of the filters are generally set to the same
frequency. Figure 3 shows the typical output noise for four
gains as a function of the –3dB cutoff frequency of each filter
response. Small signals may exhibit the addition of internally
generated auto-correction circuitry noise at the output. This
noise, combined with broadband noise, becomes most evident in higher gains with filters of wider bandwidth.
INPUT PROTECTION
The inputs of the INA326 are protected with internal diodes
connected to the power-supply rails. These diodes will clamp
the applied signal to prevent it from damaging the input
circuitry. If the input signal voltage can exceed the power
supplies by more than 0.5V, the input signal current should
be limited to less than 10mA to protect the internal clamp
diodes. This can generally be done with a series input
resistor. Some signal sources are inherently current-limited
and do not require limiting resistors.
FILTERING
INPUT BIAS CURRENT RETURN PATH
The input impedance of the INA326 is extremely high—
approximately 1010Ω. However, a path must be provided for
the input bias current of both inputs. This input bias current is
approximately ±0.2nA. High input impedance means that this
input bias current changes very little with varying input voltage.
Filtering can be adjusted through selection of R2C2 and
ROCO for the desired trade-off of noise and bandwidth.
Adjustment of these components will result in more or less
ripple due to auto-correction circuitry noise and will also
affect broadband noise. Filtering limits slew rate, settling
time, and output overload recovery time.
Input circuitry must provide a path for this input bias current
for proper operation. Figure 4 shows provision for an input
bias current path in a thermocouple application. Without a
bias current path, the inputs will float to an undefined potential and the output voltage may not be valid.
It is generally desirable to keep the resistance of RO relatively
low to avoid DC gain error created by the subsequent stage
loading. This may result in relatively high values for CO to
produce the desired filter response. The impedance of ROCO
can be scaled higher to produce smaller capacitor values if
the load impedance is very high.
INPUT COMMON-MODE RANGE
Certain capacitor types greater than 0.1µF may have dielectric absorption effects that can significantly increase settling
time in high-accuracy applications (settling to 0.01%). Polypropylene, polystyrene, and polycarbonate types are generally
good. Certain “high-K” ceramic types may produce slow
settling “tails.” Settling time to 0.1% is not generally affected
by high-K ceramic capacitors. Electrolytic types are not
recommended for C2 and CO.
Common instrumentation amplifiers do not respond linearly with
common-mode signals near the power-supply rails, even if “railto-rail” op amps are used. The INA326 uses a unique topology
to achieve true rail-to-rail input behavior (see Figure 5, “Inside
the INA326”). The linear input voltage range of each input
terminal extends to 20mV below the negative rail, and 100mV
above the positive rail.

INSIDE THE INA326
The INA326 uses a new, unique internal circuit topology
that provides true rail-to-rail input. Unlike other instrumentation amplifiers, it can linearly process inputs up to 20mV
below the negative power-supply rail, and 100mV above
the positive power-supply rail. Conventional instrumentation amplifier circuits cannot deliver such performance,
even if rail-to-rail op amps are used.
A1 and A2’s output stages. A2 combines the current in R1
with a mirrored replica of the current from A1. The resulting current in A2’s output and associated current mirror is
two times the current in R1. This current flows in (or out)
of pin 5 into R2. The resulting gain equation is:
G=2
The ability to reject common-mode signals is derived in
most instrumentation amplifiers through a combination of
amplifier CMR and accurately matched resistor ratios.
The INA326 converts the input voltage to a current.
Current-mode signal processing provides rejection of common-mode input voltage and power-supply variation without accurately matched resistors.
R2
R1
Amplifiers A1, A2, and their associated mirrors are powered from internal charge-pumps that provide voltage
supplies that are beyond the positive and negative supply
rails. As a result, the voltage developed on R2 can actually
swing 20mV below the negative power-supply rail, and
100mV above the positive supply rail. A3 provides a
buffered output of the voltage on R2. A3’s input stage is
also operated from the charge-pumped power supplies for
true rail-to-rail operation.
A simplified diagram shows the basic circuit function. The
differential input voltage, (VIN+) – (VIN–) is applied across
R1. The signal-generated current through R1 comes from
