Product details
Overview
INA159AIDGKRG4 from Texas Instruments is a precision G = 0.2 difference amplifier optimized for ±10V differential signal conditioning into single-supply ADCs, featuring ±100µV offset voltage, ±1.5µV/°C drift, 1.5MHz bandwidth, and 15V/µs slew rate. It operates from +1.8V to +5.5V supply and delivers ±0.024% max gain accuracy with laser-trimmed on-chip resistors.
For engineers reviewing the INA159AIDGKRG4 datasheet, INA159AIDGKRG4 pinout, INA159AIDGKRG4 application, or INA159AIDGKRG4 equivalent, this device is selected for high-accuracy industrial analog front-ends where rail-to-rail input common-mode range, low distortion, and stable gain over temperature are critical in ±10V sensor interfacing and medium-speed ADC drive circuits.
Technical Context
The INA159AIDGKRG4 integrates a precision op amp with a matched 20kΩ/100kΩ/40kΩ resistor network enabling fixed 0.2 gain without external components. Its input stage supports rail-to-rail common-mode voltage beyond supply rails (e.g., −12.5V to +17.5V at VS = 5V), eliminating transition glitches typical of complementary-input amplifiers.
Reference biasing uses dual REF pins (REF1, REF2) for flexible mid-supply or external reference configuration, while SENSE pin enables output monitoring and feedback control. The device maintains >94dB CMRR over temperature and achieves 0.01% settling in 1µs with 100pF load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | Fixed 0.2 (G = 1/5); translates ±10V inputs to 0–4.096V output range compatible with 5V-referenced single-supply ADCs like ADS8325. |
| Offset Voltage | ±100µV max at 25°C; ensures <0.001% full-scale error in 16-bit systems with ±10V input span. |
| Offset Drift | ±1.5µV/°C; contributes <0.18mV total drift over −40°C to +125°C, minimizing calibration frequency in industrial environments. |
| Bandwidth | 1.5MHz (−3dB); supports accurate acquisition of signals up to ~100kHz with <0.1% gain error. |
| Slew Rate | 15V/µs; enables clean 4V step response in <1µs with 100pF load, critical for fast-settling ADC sampling. |
| Supply Range | +1.8V to +5.5V single supply; allows direct interface with 3.3V or 5V microcontroller-based systems without level-shifting. |
| CMRR | 94dB min over temperature; rejects common-mode noise from long sensor cables in noisy factory settings. |

| 3 (+IN) | Non-inverting Input | Differential input terminal; accepts positive leg of ±10V sensor signal; high-impedance (60kΩ common-mode). |
| 4 (V−) | Negative Supply | Ground or negative rail connection; supports single-supply (0V) or split-supply (−2.5V) operation. |
| 5 (SENSE) | Output Sense | Provides buffered output copy for feedback or monitoring; isolates load effects from main output path. |
| 6 (V+) | Positive Supply | Positive rail connection; operates down to +1.8V, enabling low-power embedded designs. |
| 7 (OUT) | Main Output | Amplified, gain-scaled output driving ADC input; rail-to-rail capable with ±60mA short-circuit current. |
| 8 (REF2) | Reference Input 2 | Connects to reference voltage (e.g., 4.096V) to set output zero point; defines upper bound of input common-mode range. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Laser-trimmed resistor network | Ensures ±0.024% gain accuracy and <1ppm/°C gain drift, eliminating need for external trimming in precision measurement systems. |
| Rail-to-rail input common-mode range | Supports ±10V inputs with VS = 5V (−12.5V to +17.5V), enabling direct connection to industrial transducers without attenuators. |
| No input offset transition region | Delivers glitch-free performance across full common-mode range-critical for continuous data acquisition in PLC analog modules. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar difference amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA149AIDR | G = 1, higher offset (±250µV), wider supply (±18V), no REF/SENSE pins | Better for high-voltage isolation amps; lacks flexible biasing for single-supply ADC interfaces | Select when ±10V signal must be amplified without attenuation and supply exceeds 5.5V. |
| AD8271ARMZ | G = 0.2, similar offset (±100µV), lower bandwidth (1.2MHz), no SENSE pin, MSOP-8 | Compatible pinout but lacks SENSE for output monitoring; slightly slower settling | Choose when board space matches MSOP-8 and SENSE functionality is not required for feedback stability. |
Compared with INA159AIDGKRG4, INA149AIDR offers higher voltage tolerance but requires external gain-setting resistors and lacks integrated reference biasing, while AD8271ARMZ provides functionally similar gain and offset but omits the SENSE pin and delivers 0.3MHz less bandwidth-making INA159AIDGKRG4 optimal for time-critical, single-supply ±10V ADC interfacing with diagnostic monitoring capability.

FAQ
What is the maximum input common-mode voltage range for INA159AIDGKRG4 at 5V supply?
At VS = +5V with REF1 grounded and REF2 = 5V, the INA159AIDGKRG4 supports −12.5V to +17.5V input common-mode range. This extends beyond both supply rails, enabling direct connection to ±10V industrial sensors without clamping or attenuation networks. The range shifts with reference configuration per Table 1 in the datasheet.
Does INA159AIDGKRG4 require external resistors to achieve G = 0.2 gain?
No. The INA159AIDGKRG4 integrates a laser-trimmed 20kΩ/100kΩ/40kΩ resistor network that fixes the gain at exactly 0.2. No external resistors are needed for basic operation-only the REF1, REF2, and SENSE connections are required for biasing and monitoring. This eliminates matching errors and board space associated with discrete resistor networks.
Can INA159AIDGKRG4 operate from a 3.3V single supply?
Yes. The INA159AIDGKRG4 operates from +1.8V to +5.5V single supply. At 3.3V, it maintains full functionality including ±10V input common-mode range (e.g., −6.25V to +23.75V with appropriate REF configuration), 1.5MHz bandwidth, and ±100µV offset-making it ideal for modern low-voltage industrial IoT nodes interfacing legacy ±10V sensors.
What is the purpose of the SENSE pin on INA159AIDGKRG4?
SENSE is a buffered copy of the OUT pin, providing low-impedance access to the amplified signal without loading the main output. It enables closed-loop monitoring, feedback stabilization in active filters, or simultaneous routing to multiple destinations (e.g., ADC + scope probe) without degrading gain accuracy or settling behavior of the primary output path.
How does INA159AIDGKRG4 handle overload recovery?
The INA159AIDGKRG4 recovers from 50% output overdrive in 250ns-a key advantage for systems sampling fast transients or handling sensor faults. This rapid recovery prevents data corruption during burst-mode acquisition or fault-clearing sequences in programmable logic controllers, ensuring deterministic timing in real-time control loops.
