Product details
Overview
INA111AP from Texas Instruments (formerly Burr-Brown) is a high-speed, FET-input instrumentation amplifier designed for precision signal conditioning in noisy, high-impedance sensor interfaces. It delivers 4µs settling time to 0.01% at G=100, 106dB minimum CMRR at G=100, and ±500µV max input offset voltage - enabling accurate extraction of low-level biomedical or industrial transducer signals.
For engineers reviewing the INA111AP datasheet, INA111AP pinout, INA111AP application, or INA111AP equivalent, key selection considerations include its current-feedback topology for wide bandwidth (2MHz at G=1), laser-trimmed DC accuracy, 8-pin PDIP package with internal DIP-connected gain-setting resistor network, and suitability for medical instrumentation, data acquisition, and bridge sensor amplification where input bias current <20pA and fast settling are critical.
Technical Context
The INA111AP employs a three-op-amp current-feedback architecture with internally connected 10kΩ/25kΩ resistor networks, enabling extended bandwidth and predictable gain-phase response. Its FET-input stage achieves 10¹²Ω input impedance and ±20pA max input bias current, reducing errors from high-Z sources and simplifying RC filter design without offset drift.
Gain is set by a single external resistor RG per G = 1 + 50kΩ/RG, supporting 1–10,000× range. The device operates from ±6V to ±18V supplies, specified over –40°C to +85°C, with output swing up to ±12.7V into 2kΩ load and 17V/µs slew rate - optimized for dynamic, wide-gain-range instrumentation front-ends.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Bandwidth | 2MHz at G=1; enables fast step response in unity-gain buffer or low-gain signal routing |
| Settling Time | 4µs to 0.01% at G=100; supports high-throughput data acquisition with minimal dead time |
| CMRR | 106dB min at G=100; rejects common-mode noise from long sensor cables in ECG or strain gauge systems |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±500µV max; ensures sub-mV error in 10mV full-scale sensor outputs without trimming |
| Input Bias Current | ±20pA max; eliminates significant voltage drop across >1MΩ source impedances (e.g., pH electrodes) |
| Supply Range | ±6V to ±18V; accommodates legacy ±15V rails and modern ±12V industrial power domains |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial and medical equipment deployed in uncontrolled environments |
Pinout & Package
INA111AP is housed in an 8-pin plastic DIP (PDIP) package with 0.3-inch width, compatible with standard through-hole prototyping and production PCBs. Pin 1 is bottom-left corner when notch faces up; leads are tin-lead (NIPDAU) finish, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | V– | Negative supply rail connection; must be decoupled locally to minimize PSRR degradation |
| 2 | VIN– | Inverting input terminal; forms differential pair with Pin 3; requires matched trace routing for CMR integrity |
| 3 | VIN+ | Non-inverting input terminal; high-impedance FET node; needs bias current return path (e.g., matched resistors to ground) |
| 4 | RG | External gain-setting resistor connection; ties to internal 50kΩ feedback sum; determines G = 1 + 50kΩ/RG |
| 5 | Ref | Output reference node; sets output common-mode level; must be low-impedance (≤2Ω) to preserve CMRR |
| 6 | VO | Amplified output; drives loads ≥2kΩ; stability requires ≤1000pF capacitive loading unless compensated |
| 7 | V+ | Positive supply rail connection; decoupling capacitor required adjacent to pin for high-frequency PSRR |
| 8 | NC | No connect; internally unused; must remain floating or grounded per layout best practices |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| FET Input Stage | 10¹²Ω input impedance and ≤20pA bias current enable direct interfacing with piezoelectric sensors and high-resistance electrodes without signal loss |
| Current-Feedback Topology | Delivers flat 2MHz bandwidth at G=1 and maintains usable bandwidth up to G=1000 (50kHz), unlike voltage-feedback amplifiers whose bandwidth collapses with gain |
| Laser-Trimmed Resistors | On-chip 50kΩ metal-film network trimmed for ±0.15% gain error at G=100, eliminating need for external calibration in production systems |
| 0.01% Settling Time | 4µs at G=100 allows 250kSPS sampling in multiplexed DAQ systems with 16-bit resolution retention |
| High CMRR Stability | 106dB minimum at G=100 and maintained above 90dB up to 10kHz, ensuring robust rejection of 50/60Hz mains interference in clinical monitors |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar instrumentation amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA128P | Lower input bias current (±2pA), higher CMRR (120dB), but slower settling (10µs at G=100); uses voltage-feedback topology | Better for ultra-high-Z pH or ion-selective electrodes; less suitable for >100kSPS DAQ due to longer settling | Select INA128P when DC precision dominates speed; choose INA111AP when bandwidth and settling time are critical |
| AD620ANZ | Higher gain error (±0.2% at G=100), wider offset drift (±1µV/°C), but lower cost and same 8-pin DIP footprint | Suitable for cost-sensitive industrial controls where ±0.02% linearity suffices; lacks INA111AP's 2MHz GBW | Use AD620ANZ for budget-constrained designs accepting 5× slower settling; retain INA111AP for medical-grade timing fidelity |
Compared with INA128P and AD620ANZ, the INA111AP uniquely balances 2MHz bandwidth, 4µs settling, and laser-trimmed DC accuracy in an 8-pin DIP - making it optimal for high-speed, high-precision sensor front-ends where both dynamic response and low drift are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum gain achievable with the INA111AP using an external resistor?
The INA111AP supports gains from 1 to 10,000 V/V via external resistor RG according to G = 1 + 50kΩ/RG. For G=10,000, RG = 5.001Ω (nearest 1% value: 4.99Ω). At this gain, bandwidth reduces to 50kHz and settling time increases to 30µs, but the INA111AP maintains functional operation with verified 0.04% nonlinearity. Designers must ensure RG's temperature coefficient and parasitic inductance do not degrade gain stability.
Does the INA111AP require external capacitors for power supply decoupling?
Yes, the INA111AP requires 0.1µF ceramic capacitors placed as close as possible to Pins 1 (V–) and 7 (V+), referenced to a low-impedance ground plane. This is mandatory to maintain specified PSRR (>100dB at 100Hz) and prevent oscillation from supply impedance interactions. Larger bulk capacitors (e.g., 10µF tantalum) may be added remotely, but the 0.1µF units must be within 2mm of the IC pins per TI layout guidelines.
Can the INA111AP drive capacitive loads directly, and what is the limit?
The INA111AP is stable with capacitive loads up to 1000pF when driving a 2kΩ load, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings. Driving >1000pF risks peaking or oscillation; for heavier loads (e.g., ADC input capacitance + PCB trace), TI recommends isolating the output with a 10Ω–50Ω series resistor or using the SOIC version (INA111AU) with its dedicated output sense pin for remote feedback compensation.
How does the INA111AP handle input overvoltage conditions beyond its common-mode range?
The INA111AP inputs tolerate voltages from (V–) –0.7V to (V+) +15V. If common-mode voltage exceeds ±12V (linear range), A1/A2 input stages saturate, causing output to collapse near zero despite valid differential input - a failure mode requiring external clamping. For >1mA fault current, TI recommends 2N4117A diodes (low-leakage) with 10kΩ series resistors, as detailed in Figure 5 of the INA111AP datasheet.
Is the INA111AP pin-compatible with other Burr-Brown instrumentation amplifiers like the INA128?
No, the INA111AP is not pin-compatible with the INA128P. While both use 8-pin DIP packages, their pinouts differ fundamentally: INA111AP assigns Pin 4 to RG and Pin 5 to Ref, whereas INA128P uses Pin 4 for Ref and Pin 5 for RG. Swapping them causes incorrect gain setting and reference misconfiguration. Always verify pin mapping against the specific device's datasheet before PCB layout.
