Product details
Overview
INA117PG4 from Texas Instruments is a precision unity-gain high common-mode voltage difference amplifier designed for accurate differential voltage measurement in harsh industrial environments. It supports ±200V common-mode input range (at ±15V supply), offers 0.05% max gain error, 0.001% max nonlinearity, and 70dB min CMRR. It is used in semiconductor ATE systems to isolate and condition high-voltage sensor signals without galvanic isolation.
For engineers reviewing the INA117PG4 datasheet, INA117PG4 pinout, INA117PG4 application, or INA117PG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its ±500V protected inputs, 200kHz/500kHz bandwidth (CSO-dependent), SO-8 or PDIP-8 package compatibility, and suitability for current sensing, servo drive monitoring, and ultrasound front-end signal conditioning.
Technical Context
The INA117PG4 integrates a precision op amp with a laser-trimmed thin-film resistor network to achieve high common-mode rejection and low gain error. Its transfer function is VOUT = V+IN – V–IN + 20×VREFA – 19×VREFB, enabling flexible reference-level shifting and offset control in high-voltage measurement paths.
Input protection circuitry withstands ±500V common-mode and differential transients, while internal resistor matching ensures stable CMRR across temperature (70–100 dB). Bandwidth varies by chip site origin: 200kHz (CSO: SHE) or 500kHz (CSO: TID), with slew rate up to 5 V/µs and settling time of 10 µs to 0.01%.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high common-mode voltage difference amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA149IP | Higher CMRR (100 dB typ), lower input bias current (10 pA), but narrower bandwidth (120 kHz) and no REFA/REFB pins. | Better for ultra-low-drift DC measurements; unsuitable for AC-coupled or reference-shifted topologies requiring INA117PG4's extended transfer function. | Select INA149IP when absolute DC accuracy dominates over bandwidth and flexibility; retain INA117PG4 for programmable offset or high-speed transient capture. |
| AMC1301DWVR | Reinforced galvanic isolation (7000 VPK), 200 kHz bandwidth, but requires isolated power and has higher quiescent current (7 mA). | Required where safety certification mandates isolation; not drop-in due to different supply architecture and lack of reference pin functionality. | Choose AMC1301DWVR only when regulatory compliance (IEC 61800-5-1) mandates reinforced isolation; INA117PG4 remains optimal for cost-sensitive, non-isolated industrial monitoring. |
Compared with INA149IP and AMC1301DWVR, the INA117PG4 uniquely balances ±500V protection, reference-flexible transfer function, and 500 kHz bandwidth-making it the only option supporting both high-speed transient capture and programmable common-mode offset in non-isolated high-voltage measurement systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum common-mode voltage the INA117PG4 can handle continuously?
The INA117PG4 supports a continuous common-mode input voltage range of ±200 V when operated with ±15 V supplies. This rating is specified under Recommended Operating Conditions and applies across the full –40°C to +85°C temperature range. Transient overloads up to ±500 V are permitted for ≤0.1 s per Absolute Maximum Ratings, enabling robust operation in surge-prone industrial environments. The INA117PG4 achieves this via integrated input protection circuitry and precision-matched internal resistors.
Does the INA117PG4 require external trimming for offset or CMRR calibration?
No, the INA117PG4 does not require external trimming for standard operation. Its laser-trimmed thin-film resistor network delivers 70 dB minimum CMRR and ±0.05% max gain error without user adjustment. Optional trim circuits (e.g., for offset voltage or CMR enhancement) are documented in the datasheet but are only needed in applications demanding >86 dB CMRR or sub-100 µV offset-scenarios where source impedances exceed 75 Ω on input pins or 4 Ω on reference pins. For most implementations, the INA117PG4 performs as specified out-of-the-box.
Can the INA117PG4 operate from a single supply?
Yes, the INA117PG4 supports single-supply operation from +10 V to +36 V, as confirmed in Section 5.3 Recommended Operating Conditions. When using single-supply configuration, the reference pins (REFB and REFA) must be biased appropriately-typically REFB to ground and REFA to mid-supply-to center the output swing. Input common-mode range shifts accordingly (e.g., up to +300 V with +36 V supply), but differential input voltage remains limited to ±10 V. The INA117PG4's rail-to-rail output stage ensures usable dynamic range under these conditions.
How does the INA117PG4's bandwidth vary between manufacturing lots?
The INA117PG4's small-signal bandwidth (–3 dB) depends on Chip Site Origin (CSO): 200 kHz for CSO: SHE and 500 kHz for CSO: TID. This variation arises from two qualified fabrication flows, both fully characterized and specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. System designs must accommodate the lower bound (200 kHz) for guaranteed performance, though many applications benefit from the higher bandwidth of CSO: TID units. TI recommends designing for all CSOs to ensure robustness-no requalification is needed when either flow ships, as both meet all datasheet limits.
What is the purpose of the REFA and REFB pins on the INA117PG4?
The REFA (Pin 5) and REFB (Pin 1) pins implement the INA117PG4's extended transfer function: VOUT = V+IN – V–IN + 20×VREFA – 19×VREFB. This allows precise output offset control-e.g., shifting a ±10 V differential signal to a 0–20 V range for ADC interfacing-without external op amps. REFA accepts positive reference voltages (up to V+), while REFB accepts negative references (down to V–). Their high-impedance inputs draw negligible current, preserving accuracy. This capability makes the INA117PG4 uniquely suited for applications requiring programmable common-mode level translation.
