Product details
Overview
INA111BUG4 from Texas Instruments (formerly Burr-Brown) is a high-speed, FET-input instrumentation amplifier optimized for precision DC-coupled signal conditioning in data acquisition and medical instrumentation. It delivers 450 kHz bandwidth at G = 100, 4 µs settling time to 0.01%, 106 dB minimum CMRR, ±500 µV max input offset voltage, and 20 pA max input bias current - enabling accurate amplification of low-level sensor signals with minimal loading.
For engineers reviewing the INA111BUG4 datasheet, INA111BUG4 pinout, INA111BUG4 application, or INA111BUG4 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, real-world application mappings, and confirmed alternative options for medical-grade analog front-ends, bridge transducer interfaces, and high-impedance source conditioning where speed, low IB, and laser-trimmed DC accuracy are critical.
Technical Context
The INA111BUG4 employs a current-feedback topology that enables extended bandwidth (2 MHz at G = 1) and fast settling (4 µs @ G = 100, 0.01%) without sacrificing common-mode rejection. Its three-op-amp architecture isolates gain-setting resistors from input nodes, preserving high input impedance (>10¹² Ω) and minimizing bias current-induced errors.
Gain is set by a single external resistor RG per the equation G = 1 + 50 kΩ/RG, supporting programmable gains from 1 to 10,000. Laser-trimmed internal 25 kΩ and 10 kΩ metal-film resistors ensure stable gain accuracy and low drift, while the FET input stage maintains <20 pA bias current across –40°C to +85°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Bandwidth | 2 MHz at G = 1; enables wideband sensor signal capture without phase distortion in ECG or strain-gauge systems. |
| Settling Time | 4 µs to 0.01% at G = 100; supports high-throughput multiplexed data acquisition with minimal inter-channel crosstalk. |
| Input Bias Current | 20 pA max; eliminates significant voltage drop across >1 MΩ source impedances (e.g., piezoelectric sensors). |
| CMRR | 106 dB min at G = 100; rejects line-frequency interference in unshielded biomedical electrode leads. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±500 µV max; ensures sub-mV accuracy in bridge-based load cell outputs without manual trimming. |
| Supply Range | ±6 V to ±18 V; accommodates industrial ±15 V rails and battery-powered ±12 V designs without regulation overhead. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C; qualified for embedded medical devices and industrial control environments. |
Pinout & Package
The INA111BUG4 is housed in a 16-pin SOIC (DW) surface-mount package with exposed pad thermal enhancement. Pin 12 is dedicated output sense feedback - required for stability and accuracy in remote-load applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16 | No Connect (NC) | Internally unused; must remain floating or grounded per layout guidelines to avoid parasitic coupling. |
| 12 | Output Sense Feedback | Direct connection to output pin (11) required for closed-loop stability; enables remote sensing at load terminals. |
| 11 | Output (VO) | Main amplified output referenced to Ref pin; drives 2 kΩ loads with ±12.7 V swing under full temperature range. |
| 10 | Reference (Ref) | Low-impedance ground reference point; 2 Ω series resistance degrades CMRR by ~10 dB at G = 1. |
| RG | Gain-Setting Resistor Terminal | Connects external RG between pins 1 and 8; sets gain per G = 1 + 50 kΩ/RG; values as low as 4.99 Ω supported. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| FET Input Stage | 20 pA max input bias current enables direct interfacing with high-Z sources (e.g., pH electrodes, thermocouples) without guard traces or active bias networks. |
| Laser-Trimmed Offset | ±500 µV max initial offset and ±5 µV/°C max drift eliminate need for external nulling in portable diagnostic equipment. |
| Current-Feedback Architecture | Maintains 2 MHz bandwidth at unity gain and 450 kHz at G = 100 - outperforming voltage-feedback IAs in dynamic sensor applications. |
| Output Sense Pin (Pin 12) | Enables Kelvin-sensing of output voltage at remote loads, correcting for IR drop in long PCB traces or cable harnesses. |
| High-Speed Settling | 4 µs to 0.01% at G = 100 allows ≥250 kSPS sampling in multiplexed 12-bit ADC systems without settling-induced gain error. |
Applications
| ECG Signal Conditioning | Bridge Transducer Amplification |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar instrumentation amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA128UA | Lower bandwidth (1.3 MHz @ G=1), higher CMRR (130 dB), 12-pin SOIC; no output sense pin. | Better for ultra-low-noise DC measurements (e.g., laboratory balances); unsuitable for remote-load sensing. | Select INA128UA when ultimate DC precision outweighs speed and remote sensing needs. |
| AD8421ARMZ | Higher slew rate (35 V/µs), wider supply (±2.5 V to ±18 V), 8-pin SOIC; no output sense pin. | Better for high-slew transient capture (e.g., pulse oximetry); lacks Kelvin feedback for load regulation. | Select AD8421ARMZ when driving capacitive loads or requiring rail-to-rail input beyond ±12 V. |
Compared with INA128UA and AD8421ARMZ, the INA111BUG4 uniquely combines current-feedback speed (450 kHz @ G=100), integrated output sense (pin 12), and FET-input low bias (20 pA) - making it optimal for multiplexed, remote-sensed, high-impedance sensor systems where both bandwidth and layout flexibility matter.

FAQ
What is the maximum gain achievable with the INA111BUG4?
The INA111BUG4 supports gains from 1 to 10,000 using the equation G = 1 + 50 kΩ/RG. At G = 10,000, RG = 5 Ω - requiring careful layout to minimize parasitic resistance. The INA111BUG4 maintains 50 kHz bandwidth and 30 µs settling time at this gain, verified per SBOS015 datasheet Figure 4.
Does the INA111BUG4 require external decoupling capacitors?
Yes - the INA111BUG4 requires 0.1 µF ceramic capacitors placed as close as possible to pins 4 (V+) and 5 (V–) to suppress high-frequency supply noise. This is mandatory for achieving specified CMRR and settling performance, especially in noisy industrial environments per INA111 datasheet Section "Application Information".
How does the output sense pin (Pin 12) function in the INA111BUG4?
Pin 12 is the dedicated output sense terminal for the INA111BUG4's SOIC package. It must be connected directly to pin 11 (VO) for standard operation. When driving remote loads, connecting Pin 12 to the load return point enables Kelvin-sensing, compensating for voltage drop in PCB traces or cables - a feature absent in the DIP version.
Can the INA111BUG4 operate with single-supply voltages?
No - the INA111BUG4 is specified only for dual-supply operation (±6 V to ±18 V). Its input common-mode range extends to ±12 V and output swing to ±12.7 V, requiring symmetric rails. For single-supply designs, consider TI's INA333 or ADI's AD8226 as alternatives with rail-to-rail input/output capability.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the INA111BUG4 in its SOIC package?
The INA111BUG4 in 16-pin SOIC (DW) package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 100°C/W, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This value assumes standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions; actual thermal performance improves with copper pour and thermal vias beneath the exposed pad.
