Product details
Overview
INA117KU/2K5 from Texas Instruments is a precision unity-gain difference amplifier optimized for high common-mode voltage monitoring in industrial power systems. It delivers ±200V continuous common-mode input range, 0.001% nonlinearity, 86dB min CMRR, and 200kHz bandwidth - enabling accurate differential voltage measurement across battery cells, motor drives, and grounded power rails without isolation.
For engineers reviewing the INA117KU/2K5 datasheet, INA117KU/2K5 pinout, INA117KU/2K5 application, or INA117KU/2K5 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, package-specific pin mapping, real-world use cases in current sensing and cell monitoring, and two validated alternative parts with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The INA117KU/2K5 integrates a precision op amp with a laser-trimmed thin-film resistor network to achieve 0.02% max gain error and 120µV initial offset voltage. Its input stage withstands ±500V momentary common-mode and differential overloads, making it suitable for direct connection to high-voltage nodes without external protection.
It operates as a fixed-gain (G = 1) difference amplifier with transfer function VO = V3 – V2, optionally extended via reference pins (VO = V3 – V2 + 19·V5 – 18·V1). Compensation pin (Pin 8) must be grounded or AC-coupled to maintain 200kHz bandwidth and 86dB CMRR.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar difference amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD8479ARZ | Wider ±500V common-mode range; higher 120dB CMRR; 150kHz bandwidth; single-supply capable (4.5V–36V) | Preferred for ultra-high-CMRR requirements in medical or aerospace; less optimal for cost-sensitive industrial designs | Select AD8479ARZ when >100dB CMRR or single-supply operation is mandatory; not drop-in due to different pinout and biasing |
| INA149IDR | ±275V common-mode range; 100dB CMRR; 200kHz bandwidth; integrated ESD protection; SO-8 package | Better suited for new designs requiring enhanced robustness and lower offset drift (0.3µV/°C vs. 8.5µV/°C) | Choose INA149IDR for improved long-term stability and higher CMRR; requires layout review due to different reference pin configuration |
Compared with INA117KU/2K5, AD8479ARZ offers superior CMRR and wider common-mode range but trades off cost and pin compatibility, while INA149IDR improves thermal drift and ESD resilience at the expense of slightly higher quiescent current (1.8mA vs. 1.5mA).

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous common-mode voltage the INA117KU/2K5 can handle?
The INA117KU/2K5 supports ±200V continuous common-mode input voltage when powered with ±15V supplies. This rating is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and maintained across the full –40°C to +85°C operating temperature range. Transient overloads up to ±500V are tolerated for ≤10 seconds without damage, as specified in the ESD and overload protection section of the SBOS154A datasheet.
Does the INA117KU/2K5 require external trimming for gain or offset accuracy?
No, the INA117KU/2K5 does not require external trimming. Its laser-trimmed thin-film resistor network guarantees 0.02% max gain error and 120µV max initial offset voltage (AM grade) without user adjustment. Optional offset or CMRR trim circuits (Figures 2 and 3 in SBOS154A) exist but are only needed for applications demanding tighter than datasheet-specified performance.
Can the INA117KU/2K5 operate from a single +12V supply?
No, the INA117KU/2K5 requires dual supplies (e.g., ±5V to ±18V) to support its ±200V common-mode input range. The internal architecture relies on symmetric rails to bias the input stage and maintain CMRR. Attempting single-supply operation violates the Absolute Maximum Ratings and will result in incorrect output behavior or device damage.
What is the purpose of Pin 8 (Comp) on the INA117KU/2K5, and how must it be connected?
Pin 8 (Comp) connects to internal compensation circuitry that cancels parasitic capacitance between the feedback resistors and IC substrate. To ensure specified 200kHz bandwidth and 86dB CMRR, Pin 8 must be grounded directly or connected through a 0.1µF capacitor to AC ground (e.g., V+), as shown in Figure 1 of SBOS154A. Leaving Pin 8 floating degrades dynamic performance and increases settling time.
How does the INA117KU/2K5 differ from the INA149 in terms of reference pin functionality?
The INA117KU/2K5 uses Pins 1 (RefA) and 5 (RefB) to enable programmable offset injection via VO = V3 – V2 + 19·V5 – 18·V1, supporting custom common-mode translation. In contrast, the INA149 has dedicated reference pins configured for fixed gain scaling and lacks this flexible multi-coefficient transfer function - making the INA117KU/2K5 uniquely suited for applications requiring dynamic common-mode range extension.
