Gain can be set to 10V/V or 50V/V by pin strapping. Gains between these two values can be obtained with the addition of a single resistor. The INA155 is fully specified over the supply range of +2.7 to +5.5V. Wide bandwidth (550kHz in G = 10) and high slew rate (6.5V/µs) make the INA155 suitable for driving sampling A/D converters as well as general purpose and audio applications. Fast settling time allows use with higher speed sensors and transducers and rapid scanning data acquisition systems. RG The INA155 is available in MSOP-8 and SO-8 surface-mount packages. Both are specified for operation over the temperature range –55°C to 125°C.

Applications with noisy or high impedance power supplies may require decoupling capacitors close to the device pins as shown. The INA155 is fully specified and guaranteed over the supply range +2.7V to +5.5V, with key parameters guaranteed over the temperature range of –55°C to +125°C. Parameters that vary significantly with operating voltages, load conditions or temperature are shown in the Typical Performance Curves. The output is referred to the output reference terminal, Ref, which is normally set to VS/2. This must be a low-impedance connection to ensure good common-mode rejection. A resistance of 200Ω in series with the Ref pin will cause a typical device to degrade to approximately 80dB CMRR. The INA155 can be operated from either single or dual power supplies. By adjusting the voltage applied to the reference terminal, the input common-mode voltage range and the output range can be adjusted within the bounds shown in the Typical Performance Curves. Figure 2 shows a bridge amplifier circuit operated from a single +5V power supply. The bridge provides a relatively small differential voltage on top of an input common-mode voltage near 2.5V. In addition, for the G = 50 configuration, the connection between pins 1 and 8 must be low-impedance. A connection impedance of 20Ω can cause a 0.2% shift in gain error.

See Typical Performance Curve. (2) For best performance, the common-mode input voltage should be kept away from the transition range of (V+) – 1.8V to (V+) –0.8V. VREF(1) FIGURE 2. Single-Supply Bridge Amplifier. ® 9 INA155 SETTING THE GAIN an optional circuit for trimming the output offset voltage. The voltage applied to the Ref terminal is added to the output signal. An op amp buffer is used to provide low impedance at the Ref terminal to preserve good commonmode rejection. Gain of 10 is achieved simply by leaving the two gain pins (1 and 8) open. Gain of 50 is achieved by connecting the gain pins together directly. In the G = 10 configuration, the gain error is less than 0.1%. In the G = 50 configuration, the gain error is less than 0.25%. INPUT BIAS CURRENT RETURN Gain can be set to any value between 10 and 50 by connecting a resistor RG between the gain pins according to the following equation: 10 + 400kΩ/(10kΩ + RG) The input impedance of the INA155 is extremely high— approximately 1013Ω, making it ideal for use with high-impedance sources. However, a path must be provided for the input bias current of both inputs. This input bias current is less than 10pA and is virtually independent of the input voltage. (1) This is demonstrated in Figure 1 and is shown with the commonly used gains and resistor RG values. However, because the absolute value of internal resistors is not guaranteed, using the INA155 in this configuration will increase the gain error and gain error drift with temperature, as shown in Figure 3. If the differential source resistance is low, the bias current return path can be connected to one input (see the thermocouple in Figure 5). With higher source impedance, using two equal resistors provides a balanced input with advantages of lower input offset voltage due to bias current and better high-frequency common-mode rejection. 400 2.0 360 Gain Error Drift 1.6 320 1.4 280 1.2 250 200 1.0 0.8 160 Gain Error 0.6 120 0.4 80 0.2 40 Gain Error Drift (ppm/°C) 1.8 Gain Error (%) Input circuitry must provide a path for this input bias current for proper operation. Figure 5 shows various provisions for an input bias current path. Without a bias current path, the inputs will float to a potential that exceeds the commonmode range and the input amplifier will saturate. 3 10 15 25 20 35 30 40 45 1 Microphone, Hydrophone, etc. 0 0 6 INA155 8 50 2 Gain (V/V) 5 47kΩ VREF VB(1) FIGURE 3.

Providing an Input Common-Mode Current Path. ® INA155 5 10 INPUT COMMON-MODE RANGE 1.00 The input common-mode range of the INA155 for various operating conditions is shown the in Typical Performance Curves. The common-mode input range is limited by the output voltage swing of A1, an internal circuit node. For the G = 10 configuration, output voltage of A1 can be expressed as: Input Offset Voltage (mV) VOUTA1 = – 1/9VREF + (1 + 1/9) VIN– (2) Using this equation given that the output of A1 can swing to within 10mV of either rail, the input common-mode voltage range can be calculated. When the input common-mode range is exceeded (A1’s output is saturated), A2 can still be in linear operation and respond to changes in the non-inverting input voltage. However, the output voltage will be invalid.

Input Offset Voltage Changes with CommonMode Voltage. The common-mode range for the G = 50 configuration is included in the Typical Performance Curve, “Input Common-Mode Range vs Output Voltage.” V+ NOTE: Output is referred to V+. INPUT RANGE FOR BEST ACCURACY The internal amplifiers have rail-to-rail input stages, achieved by using complementary n- and p-channel input pairs. The common-mode input voltage determines whether the p-channel or the n-channel input stage is operating. The transition between the input stages is gradual and occurs between (V+) – 1.8V to (V+) – 0.8V. Due to these characteristics operating the INA155 with input voltages within the transition region of (V+) – 1.8V to (V+) – 0.8V results in a shift in input offset voltage and reduced common-mode and power supply rejection performance. Typical patterns of the offset voltage change throughout the input common-mode range are illustrated in Figure 6. The INA155 can be operated below or above the transition region with excellent results. Figure 7 demonstrates the use of the INA155 in a single-supply, high-side current monitor. In this application, the INA155 is operated above the transition region. 2 5 7 0.02Ω 1 50mV 6 INA155 4 8 3 IL 2.5A Load G = 10 Pins 1 and 8 Open FIGURE 7. Single-Supply, High-Side Current Monitor. RLIM RAIL-TO-RAIL OUTPUT 3 IOVERLOAD 10mA max A class AB output stage with common-source transistors is used to achieve rail-to-rail output. For resistive loads greater than 10kΩ, the output voltage can swing to within a few millivolts of the supply rail while maintaining low gain error. For heavier loads and over temperature, see the typical performance curve “Output Voltage Swing vs Output Current.” The INA155’s low output impedance at high frequencies makes it suitable for directly driving Capacitive Digital-to-Analog (CDAC) input A/D converters, as shown in Figure 9. 1 8 6 INA155 VOUT 5 2 RLIM VREF FIGURE 8. Input Current Protection for Voltages Exceeding the Supply Voltage. +5V INPUT PROTECTION 3 Device inputs are protected by ESD diodes that will conduct if the input voltages exceed the power supplies by more than 500mV. Momentary voltages greater than 500mV beyond the power supply can be tolerated if the current on the input pins is limited to 10mA. This is easily accomplished with input resistors RLIM as shown in Figure 8. Many input signals are inherently current-limited to less than 10mA, therefore, a limiting resistor is not required. 1 7 5 8 2 6 INA155 4 ADS7818 or ADS7834 12-Bits fSAMPLE = 500kHz NOTE: G = 10 configuration FIGURE 9.
