Overview
1 Overview
The INA851 is a high-precision instrumentation amplifier with differential outputs that is optimized to drive
high-performance analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) with fully differential inputs. A single external resistor sets
any gain from 0.2 V/V to 10,000 V/V. The device features super-beta input transistors from Texas Instruments,
which provide ultra-low input offset voltage, offset drift, input bias current, input voltage noise, and current noise.
For a full list of electrical characteristics for the INA851, see the INA851 Precision, Fully Differential Output,
Instrumentation Amplifier data sheet.

EVM Circuit Description
www.ti.com
2 EVM Circuit Description
This EVM provides access to the features and measures the performance of the INA851. By default, the
INA851EVM instrumentation amplifier is configured to a gain of 1 V/V. The evaluation board provides optional
footprints for gain resistors RG1 and RG2 to modify the input-stage instrumentation-amplifier gain. Optional
footprints R5 and R9 can be populated with 0-Ω jumpers to set the output stage gain to 0.2 V/V.
The INA851 incorporates features that simplify interfacing to a fully-differential ADC. The VOCM connector
sets the output common-mode voltage. If the VOCM connector is not driven, the output common-mode voltage
defaults to the INA851 midsupply value. Clamp pins are provided to limit the INA851 output voltage level,
which can be applied to the ADC inputs. The output clamp pins, VCLAMP+ and VCLAMP–, are accessible
using connector J9. Selectable jumpers J11 and J12 set the output clamp voltage level to the INA851 supplies
(default), or to external voltages using connector J9.
Revision A of the INA851EVM allows access to the FDA_IN– and FDA_IN+ pins with optional capacitors C7
and C18. These capacitors are in parallel with the INA851 output stage internal feedback resistors to implement
noise filtering. A simplified block diagram of the INA851EVM is displayed in Figure 2-1. For a full schematic of
the INA851EVM, see Figure 7-1.

Input and Output Connections
5 Input and Output Connections
The instrumentation amplifier input signal connections for the INA851EVM are provided through the use of SMA
connectors J3, J6, and test points TP5, TP7, located at the left of the EVM. The VOCM input is provided through
screw-terminal connector J10, located on the left of the board.
By default, the output clamp voltage levels, VCLAMP+ and VCLAMP–, are set to the INA851 positive (+VCC)
and negative (–VEE) supplies, respectively. The VCLAMP+ pin is connected to +VCC through jumper J11 1-2,
and the VCLAMP– pin is connected to –VEE through J12 1-2. Screw terminal connector J9 provides access to
the output clamp pins. To set the voltage level of the clamps with an external supply, shunt jumper J11 2-3 to
access the VCLAMP+ using connector J9.1. In a similar fashion, shunt jumper J12 2-3 to access the VCLAMP–
pin using connector J9.3.
The differential output amplifier connections are provided through screw-terminal connector J5, SMA connectors
J2 and J8, and test points TP6 and TP8, located at the right side of the EVM. A simplified diagram of the
INA851EVM input and output connections is displayed in Figure 5-1.

6 Modifications
By default, the INA851EVM is populated with the INA851 device configured in gain of 1 V/V. However, for
flexibility, the PCB layout has additional unpopulated, passive component footprints for gain resistors RG1 and
RG2 to set the front-end amplifier gain. Optional footprints for jumper resistors R5 and R6 are provided to set
the output stage to gain of 0.2 V/V. In addition, the evaluation board provides footprints R3, R12, C10, C8, and
C14 for optional input low-pass filters, and footprints for load resistors R6 and R13. These additional component
footprints in the layout allow the user to customize the evaluation circuit. For a full schematic of the INA851EVM,
see Figure 7-1.

7.2 PCB Layout
The INA851EVM is a four-layer PCB design. Figure 7-2 to Figure 7-6 show the PCB layer illustrations. The
top layer consists of all signal path traces, and is poured with a solid ground plane. A symmetrical board
layout is used at the differential inputs and outputs to keep good performance matching and improve commonmode noise rejection. Route traces as symmetrically as possible for both positive and negative pathways.
Gain resistors RG1 and RG2 are placed on the top layer in close proximity to the device to reduce parasitic
capacitance. Capacitor C5 is placed in close proximity to VOCM to avoid injecting common-mode noise.
Decoupling capacitors C6, and C17 are positioned on the top layer as close as possible to the power-supply
pins of the device. The second internal layer is a dedicated solid GND plane. Independent vias are placed at the
ground connection of every component to provide a low-impedance path to ground. The third internal layer and
bottom layer route the power supplies and the VCLAMP+ and VCLAMP– connections.
