High Common-Mode Voltage Difference Amplifier
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
•
•
•
The INA149 is a precision unity-gain difference
amplifier with a very high input common-mode
voltage range. It is a single, monolithic device that
consists of a precision op amp and an integrated thinfilm resistor network. The INA149 can accurately
measure small differential voltages in the presence of
common-mode signals up to ±275 V. The INA149
inputs are protected from momentary common-mode
or differential overloads of up to 500 V.

Common-Mode Voltage Range: ±275 V
Minimum CMRR: 90 dB from –40°C to +125°C
DC Specifications:
– Maximum Offset Voltage: 1100 μV
– Maximum Offset Voltage Drift: 15 μV/°C
– Maximum Gain Error: 0.02%
– Maximum Gain Error Drift: 10 ppm/°C
– Maximum Gain Nonlinearity: 0.001% FSR
AC Performance:
– Bandwidth: 500 kHz
– Typical Slew Rate: 5 V/μs
Wide Supply Range: ±2.0 V to ±18 V
– Maximum Quiescent Current: 900 μA
– Output Swing on ±15-V Supplies: ±13.5 V
Input Protection:
– Common-Mode: ±500 V
– Differential: ±500 V
In many applications, where galvanic isolation in not
required, the INA149 can replace isolation amplifiers.
This ability can eliminate costly isolated input side
power supplies and the associated ripple, noise, and
quiescent current. The excellent 0.0005% nonlinearity
and 500-kHz bandwidth of the INA149 are superior to
those of conventional isolation amplifiers.
The INA149 is pin-compatible with the INA117 and
INA148 type high common-mode voltage amplifiers
and offers improved performance over both devices.
The INA149 is available in the SOIC-8 package with
operation specified over the extended industrial
temperature range of –40°C to +125°C.

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.

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.
REFA and REFB are diode clamped to the power-supply rails. Signals applied to these pins that can swing more than 0.3 V beyond the
supply rails should be limited to 10 mA or less.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
BASIC INFORMATION
Figure 43 shows the basic connections required for dual-supply operation. Applications with noisy or highimpedance power-supply lines may require decoupling capacitors placed close to the device pins. The output
voltage is equal to the differential input voltage between pins 2 and 3. The common-mode input voltage is
rejected. Figure 44 shows the basic connections required for single-supply operation.

TRANSFER FUNCTION
Most applications use the INA149 as a simple unity-gain difference amplifier. The transfer function is given in
Equation 1:
VOUT = (+IN) – (–IN)
(1)
Some applications, however, apply voltages to the reference terminals (REFA and REFB). The complete transfer
function is given in Equation 2:
VOUT = (+IN) – (–IN) + 20 × REFA – 19 × REFB
(2)
COMMON-MODE RANGE
The high common-mode range of the INA149 is achieved by dividing down the input signal with a high precision
resistor divider. This resistor divider brings both the positive input and the negative input within the input range of
the internal operational amplifier. This input range depends on the supply voltage of the INA149.
Both Figure 2 and Figure 3 can be used to determine the maximum common-mode range for a specific supply
voltage. The maximum common-mode range can also be calculated by ensuring that both the positive and the
negative input of the internal amplifier are within 1.5 V of the supply voltage.
In case the voltage at the inputs of the internal amplifier exceeds the supply voltage, the internal ESD diodes
start conducting current. This current must be limited to 10 mA to make sure not to exceed the absolute
maximum ratings for the device.

COMMON-MODE REJECTION
Common-mode rejection (CMR) of the INA149 depends on the input resistor network, which is laser-trimmed for
accurate ratio matching. To maintain high CMR, it is important to have low source impedance driving the two
inputs. A 75-Ω resistance in series with pins 2 or 3 decreases the common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) from
100 dB (typical) to 74 dB.
Resistance in series with the reference pins also degrades CMR. A 4-Ω resistance in series with pins 1 or 5
decreases CMRR from 100 dB to 74 dB.
Most applications do not require trimming. Figure 45 shows an optional circuit that may be used for trimming
offset voltage and common-mode rejection.

MEASURING CURRENT
The INA149 can be used to measure a current by sensing the voltage drop across a series resistor, RS.
Figure 46 shows the INA149 used to measure the supply currents of a device under test.
The sense resistor imbalances the input resistor matching of the INA149, thus degrading its CMR. Also, the input
impedance of the INA149 loads RS, causing gain error in the voltage-to-current conversion. Both of these errors
can be easily corrected.
The CMR error can be corrected with the addition of a compensation resistor (RC), equal to the value of RS, as
shown in Figure 46. If RS is less than 5 Ω, degradation in the CMR is negligible and RC can be omitted. If RS is
larger than approximately 1 kΩ, trimming RC may be required to achive greater than 90-dB CMR. This error is
caused by the INA149 input impedance mismatch.

Figure 46. Measuring Supply Currents of a Device Under Test
If RS is more than approximately 50 Ω, the gain error is greater than the 0.02% specification of the INA149. This
gain error can be corrected by slightly increasing the value of RS. The corrected value (RS') can be calculated by
RS' = RS × 380 kΩ/(380 kΩ – RS)
(3)
Example: For a 1-V/mA transfer function, the nominal, uncorrected value for RS would be 1 kΩ. A slightly larger
value (RS' = 1002.6 Ω), compensates for the gain error as a result of loading.
The 380-kΩ term in the equation for RS' has a tolerance of 25%, thus sense resistors above approximately 400 Ω
may require trimming to achive gain accuracy better than 0.02%.

NOISE PERFORMANCE
The wideband noise performane of the INA149 is dominated by the internal resistor network. The thermal or
Johnson noise of these resistors measures approximately 550 nV/√Hz. The internal op amp contributes virtually
no excess noise at frequencies above 100 Hz.
Many applications may be satisfied with less than the full 500-kHz bandwidth of the INA149. In these cases, the
noise can be reduced with a low-pass filter on the output. The two-pole filter shown in Figure 47 limits bandwidth
and reduces noise. Because the INA149 has a 1/f noise corner frequency of approximately 100 Hz, a cutoff
frequency below 100 Hz does not further reduce noise.
Component values for different filter frequencies are shown in Table 1.

ERROR BUDGET ANALYSIS
The following error budget analysis demonstrates the importance of a high common-mode rejection ratio when
measuring small differential signals in the presence of high common-mode voltages. Figure 48 shows a typical
current measurement application.

Figure 48. Typical Current Measurement Application
The maximum current through the shunt resistor (RS) is 1 A and generates a full-scale voltage drop of 10 V. All
error sources in this calculation are shown in relation to this full-scale voltage. The common-mode voltage in this
scenario is 265 V and the temperature range is from room temperature (+25°C) to +85°C. Table 2 shows the
dominant error sources for the INA149 and a competitor device.

If a smaller shunt resistor is used, the full-scale voltage drop is also smaller. A shunt resistor of 1 Ω causes a 1-V
voltage drop with a current of 1 A flowing through it. The error of 1808 ppm for a full-scale voltage of 10 V
becomes 18080 ppm (1.6%) for a full-scale voltage of only 1 V.
This example demonstrates that the dominate source of error, even over temperature, comes from the CMRR
specification of the devices. The common-mode error is 46% of the total error for the INA149 and 74% of the
total error for the competitor device.
