DESCRIPTION
Configured internally for 5V/V gain, the INA321 offers
exceptional flexibility with user-programmable external
gain resistors. The INA321 reduces common-mode error
over frequency and with CMRR remaining high up to 3kHz,
line noise and line harmonics are rejected.
The low-power design does not compromise on bandwidth
or slew rate, making the INA321 ideal for driving sample
Analog-to-Digital (A/D) converters as well as
general-purpose applications. With high precision, low
cost, and small packaging, the INA321 outperforms
discrete designs, while offering reliability and
performance.
CMRR (dB)
100
The INA321 family is a series of rail-to-rail output,
micropower CMOS instrumentation amplifiers that offer
wide-range, single-supply, as well as bipolar-supply
operation. The INA321 family provides low-cost, low-noise
amplification of differential signals with micropower
current consumption of 40µA. When shutdown, the
INA321 has a quiescent current of less than 1µA.
Returning to normal operations within microseconds, the
shutdown feature makes the INA321 optimal for
low-power battery or multiplexing applications.

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.
(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 supported.
(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.
(3) Short-circuit to ground, one amplifier per package.

SBOS168D − DECEMBER 2000 − REVISED JANUARY 2006
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The INA321 is a modified version of the classic two op amp
instrumentation amplifier, with an additional gain amplifier.
Figure 1 shows the basic connections for the operation of
the INA321 and INA2321. The power supply should be
capacitively decoupled with 0.1µF capacitors as close to
the INA321 as possible for noisy or high-impedance
applications.
The output is referred to the reference terminal, which
must be at least 1.2V below the positive supply rail.
OPERATING VOLTAGE
The INA321 family is fully specified over a supply range of
+2.7V to +5.5V, with key parameters assured over the
temperature range of −55°C to +125°C. Parameters that
vary significantly with operating conditions, such as load
conditions or temperature, are shown in the Typical
Characteristics.
The INA321 may be operated on a single supply. Figure 2
shows a bridge amplifier circuit operated from a single +5V
supply. The bridge provides a small differential voltage
riding on an input common-mode voltage.

SETTING THE GAIN
The ratio of R2 to R1, or the impedance between pins 1, 5,
and 6, determines the gain of the INA321. With an
internally set gain of 5, the INA321 can be programmed for
gains greater than 5 according to the following equation:
Figure 3 shows how bias current path can be provided in
the cases of microphone applications, thermistor
applications, ground returns, and dc-coupled resistive
bridge applications.
G = 5 + 5 (R2/R1)
The INA321 is designed to provide accurate gain, with gain
error assured to be less than 0.1%. Setting gain with
matching TC resistors will minimize gain drift. Errors from
external resistors will add directly to the gain error, and
may become dominant error sources.

INPUT COMMON-MODE RANGE
47kΩ
The upper limit of the common-mode input range is set by
the common-mode input range of the second amplifier, A2,
to 1.2V below positive supply. Under most conditions, the
amplifier operates beyond this point with reduced
performance. The lower limit of the input range is bounded
by the output swing of amplifier A1, and is a function of the
reference voltage according to the following equation:

The reference pin requires a low-impedance connection.
As little as 160Ω in series with the reference pin will
degrade the CMRR to 80dB. The reference pin may be
used to compensate for the offset voltage (see Offset
Trimming section). The reference voltage level also
influences the common-mode input range (see
Common-Mode Input Range section).

INPUT BIAS CURRENT RETURN
With a high input impedance of 1013Ω, the INA321 is ideal
for use with high-impedance sources. The input bias
current of less than 10pA makes the INA321 nearly
independent of input impedance and ideal for low-power
applications.
For proper operation, a path must be provided for input
bias currents for both inputs. Without input bias current
paths, the inputs will float to a potential that exceeds
common-mode range and the input amplifier will saturate.
Figure 3. Providing an Input Common-Mode Path
When differential source impedance is low, the bias
current return path can be connected to one input. With
higher source impedance, two equal resistors will provide
a balanced input. The advantages are lower input offset
voltage due to bias current flowing through the source
impedance and better high-frequency gain.

OUTPUT BUFFERING
The INA321 is optimized for a load impedance of 10kΩ or
greater. For higher output current the INA321 can be
buffered using the OPA340, as shown in Figure 4. The
OPA340 can swing within 50mV of the supply rail, driving
a 600Ω load. The OPA340 is available in the tiny MSOP-8
package.
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 5.

SHUTDOWN MODE
The shutdown pin of the INA321 is nominally connected to
V+. When the pin is pulled below 0.8V on a 5V supply, the
INA321 goes into sleep mode within nanoseconds. For
actual shutdown threshold, see the Typical Characteristic
curve, Shutdown Voltage vs Supply Voltage. Drawing less
than 1µA of current, and returning from sleep mode in
microseconds, the shutdown feature is useful for portable
applications. Once in sleep-mode, the amplifier has high
output impedance, making the INA321 suitable for
multiplexing.

Capacitive-Input, A/D Converter
OFFSET TRIMMING
The INA321 is laser-trimmed for low offset voltage. In the
event that external offset adjustment is required, the offset
can be adjusted by applying a correction voltage to the
reference terminal. Figure 6 shows an optional circuit for
trimming offset voltage. The voltage applied to the REF
terminal is added to the output signal. The gain from REF
to VOUT is +1. An op-amp buffer is used to provide low
impedance at the REF terminal to preserve good
common-mode rejection.

INPUT PROTECTION
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 through the input pins is limited to 10mA. This is
easily accomplished with input resistor RLIM, as shown in
Figure 7. Many input signals are inherently current-limited
to less than 10mA; therefore, a limiting resistor is not
required.

FEEDBACK CAPACITOR IMPROVES RESPONSE

Calculation of the worst-case expected offset would be as
follows:
RG
Figure 7. Input Protection
For optimum settling time and stability with
high-impedance feedback networks, it may be necessary
to add a feedback capacitor across the feedback resistor,
RF, as shown in Figure 8. This capacitor compensates for
the zero created by the feedback network impedance and
the INA321’s RG-pin input capacitance (and any parasitic
layout capacitance). The effect becomes more significant
with higher impedance networks. Also, RX and CL can be
added to reduce high-frequency noise.
OFFSET VOLTAGE ERROR CALCULATION
The offset voltage (VOS) of the INA321E is specified at a
maximum of 500µV with a +5V power supply and the
common-mode voltage at VS/2. Additional specifications
for power-supply rejection and common-mode rejection
are provided to allow the user to easily calculate
worst-case expected offset under the conditions of a given
application.
Power-Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR) is specified in
µV/V. For the INA321, worst-case PSRR is 200µV/V,
which means for each volt of change in power supply, the
offset may shift up to 200µV. Common-Mode Rejection
Ratio (CMRR) is specified in dB, which can be converted
to µV/V using the following equation:

CMRR (in µV/V) = 10[(CMRR in dB)/—20] • 106
For the INA321, the worst-case CMRR over the specified
common-mode range is 90dB (at G = 25) or about 30µV/V.
This means that for every volt of change in common-mode,
the offset will shift less than 30µV.
These numbers can be used to calculate excursions from
the specified offset voltage under different application
conditions. For example, an application might configure
the amplifier with a 3.3V supply with 1V common-mode.
This configuration varies from the specified configuration,
representing a 1.7V variation in power supply (5V in the
offset specification versus 3.3V in the application) and a
0.65V variation in common-mode voltage from the
specified VS/2.
Where CIN is equal to the INA321 input capacitance
(approximately 3pF) plus any parastic layout capacitance.
Figure 8. Feedback Capacitor Improves Dynamic
Performance
It is suggested that a variable capacitor be used for the
feedback capacitor since input capacitance may vary
between instrumentation amplifiers, and layout
capacitance is difficult to determine. For the circuit shown
in Figure 8, the value of the variable feedback capacitor
should be chosen by the following equation:
RIN • CIN = RF • CF
where CIN is equal to the INA321’s RG-pin input
capacitance (typically 3pF) plus the layout capacitance.
The capacitor can be varied until optimum performance is
obtained.
