Product details
Overview
INA159AIDGKTG4 from Texas Instruments is a precision G = 0.2 difference amplifier optimized for ±10V differential signal conditioning into single-supply ADCs. It delivers ±0.024% max gain accuracy, 1.5MHz bandwidth, 15V/µs slew rate, and operates from +1.8V to +5.5V supply. Its laser-trimmed resistor network enables high common-mode rejection in industrial process control and instrumentation interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the INA159AIDGKTG4 datasheet, INA159AIDGKTG4 pinout, INA159AIDGKTG4 application, or INA159AIDGKTG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail input common-mode range beyond supplies (±12.5V to ±17.5V depending on reference), low 100µV offset voltage, and MSOP-8 package compatibility with space-constrained analog front-ends.
Technical Context
The INA159AIDGKTG4 integrates a precision op amp with a matched on-chip resistor network configured for fixed 0.2 gain (−14dB), eliminating external precision resistors. Its input stage supports rail-to-rail common-mode voltage operation, enabling direct interfacing of ±10V field signals to 5V or lower single-supply ADCs like ADS8325 and ADS7861.
Reference biasing uses two internal resistors (REF1 and REF2) to set output quiescent level-configurable for mid-supply or external reference. The SENSE pin provides feedback path access for custom gain or filtering, while the V+ and V− pins support both single- and split-supply operation across −40°C to +125°C.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar difference amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA149AIDGKR | G = 1, higher 200µV offset, 10MHz bandwidth, same MSOP-8 package | Better for high-frequency differential measurements but lacks ±10V-to-ADC scaling; requires external gain stage for same function | Select when bandwidth >5MHz is required and gain flexibility justifies added components |
| AD8271ARMZ | G = 0.2, ±0.01% gain error, 1.2MHz bandwidth, SOIC-8 package (larger footprint) | Lower gain error but slower response; SOIC-8 requires more PCB area than MSOP-8 | Choose for tighter gain tolerance where board space permits larger package |
Compared with INA159AIDGKTG4, INA149AIDGKR offers higher bandwidth but no built-in ±10V-to-ADC scaling, while AD8271ARMZ provides superior gain accuracy at the cost of reduced speed and larger packaging-making INA159AIDGKTG4 optimal for space-constrained, industrial-grade ±10V signal chains requiring integrated precision and speed.

FAQ
What is the maximum input common-mode voltage range supported by the INA159AIDGKTG4?
The INA159AIDGKTG4 supports an input common-mode voltage range extending beyond the supply rails-for example, up to +17.5V and −12.5V when operated from a +5V supply with a 2.5V reference. This rail-to-rail input capability allows direct connection of ±10V industrial sensor outputs without external level-shifting circuitry, and the exact range depends on V+, V−, and reference configuration per Table 1 in the INA159AIDGKTG4 datasheet.
Can the INA159AIDGKTG4 operate from a +3.3V single supply?
Yes, the INA159AIDGKTG4 operates from +1.8V to +5.5V total supply voltage, making it fully compatible with +3.3V single-supply systems. When powered from +3.3V, its common-mode input range adjusts accordingly (e.g., +13.55V to −6.25V with 2.5V reference), and output swing remains functional within (V+) − 0.02V and (V−) + 0.048V-enabling reliable interfacing with 3.3V-tolerant ADCs.
How does the SENSE pin on the INA159AIDGKTG4 function in practical designs?
The SENSE pin on the INA159AIDGKTG4 provides access to the internal feedback node between the op amp output and the precision resistor network. It allows designers to insert external RC networks for anti-alias filtering or adjust gain via additional resistors without compromising the laser-trimmed ratio. In the INA159AIDGKTG4, this feature enables customized frequency response and noise reduction while retaining factory-calibrated accuracy.
What ADCs are explicitly validated for use with the INA159AIDGKTG4 in TI documentation?
Texas Instruments validates the INA159AIDGKTG4 with several medium-speed SAR ADCs including the ADS8325, ADS7861, and ADS8361. These devices share compatible reference architectures and timing requirements-the INA159AIDGKTG4's 1µs 0.01% settling time and 4.096V full-scale output align precisely with the input ranges and sampling apertures of these ADCs, as shown in Figures 3 and 4 of the INA159AIDGKTG4 datasheet.
Is the INA159AIDGKTG4 pin-compatible with other members of the INA159 family?
Yes, all variants of the INA159-including INA159AIDGKTG4, INA159AIDGKR, and INA159AIDGKT-are identical in pinout, electrical specifications, and MSOP-8 (DGK) package dimensions. The suffix differences (e.g., "G4", "T", "R") denote tape-and-reel packaging and lead finish variants only; no functional or mechanical incompatibility exists between them, allowing drop-in substitution based on volume and logistics requirements.
