Instrumentation Amplifier VCM vs. VOUT Plots Pete Semig Precision Linear Analog Applications Engineer Texas Instruments 1
Why does the output show distortion? 2 Vpp Differential Input INA 333, Vcm=2. 0 V (not shown), G=1 V/V, +/-2. 5 V dual supply, Vref=0 V 2
INA 333 Vcm vs. Vout Plot • This plot defines the linear output range – Depends on supply voltage, reference voltage, gain, and Vcm – Notice the output swing is <+/-1 Vpp when Vcm=2 V, which is consistent with previous slide 3
INA 333 Vcm vs. Vout Plots • Why is this an issue? – IA data sheets have plots for common device configurations – IA data sheets cannot have plots for all possible combinations of supply voltage, reference voltage, and gain – INA 333, for example, has 4 plots (2 single supply, 2 dual supply) – What if a design uses unbalanced supplies? Uncommon reference voltage? – We need to understand how to generate these plots for any application scenario 4
Instrumentation Amplifier Topologies 5
Traditional 3 -op amp topology • Most common IA topology • Two stages – Input stage – Output stage • Input stage made of 2 noninverting amplifiers (high input impedance) • Output stage is a difference amplifier (gain is R 2/R 1) • RG sets the gain of the device • Balanced signal paths yield excellent common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) • VOUT is referred to VREF 6
2 -op amp IA • The INA 128 is an example of a 2 -op amp IA • Similar to 3 -op amp topology, it has high input impedance and adjustable gain • Signal path to output, however, is not balanced – Yields degraded CMRR performance • Therefore, these devices are generally less expensive than traditional 3 -op amp IAs 7
Current mirror topology • This IA topology is truly unique • It uses current mirrors in the design • This allows for true rail-torail input and output swings – No Vcm vs. Vout issues! • Low bandwidth • Requires 2 resistors to set gain 8

Node Equation Summary We have equations for all 6 nodes in terms of VCM, VD, GIS, GOS, and VREF What do we do with VD? 17
What about VD? • Need to eliminate VD from node equations. • Solution: solve the VOUT equation for VD and substitute! • We can now substitute the right side for VD in node equations 18
Node Equations Revisited • VD substitution & solve for VOUT • We can now plot VOUT as function of VCM, VREF, & gain • But, what are VIA 1, VIA 2, VIA 3, VOA 1, VOA 2, and VOA 3? ? 19
Op amp limitations • VCM and VOUT of an op amp are limited by the supply voltages according to the device’s data sheet 20
Op amp limitations – OPA 333 example VIA 1, VIA 2, VIA 3, VOA 1, VOA 2, and VOA 3 are the VCM and VOUT limits of the internal op amps! 21
The VCM vs. VOUT Plot 22
The VCM vs. VOUT Plot G=1 V/V, A 1 & A 2 VCM limits define linear region 23
The VCM vs. VOUT Plot G>1 V/V, linear region defined by VCM and VOUT limits 24
The VCM vs. VOUT Plot Linear region defined by VOUT limits, regardless of gain 25
Data sheet examples INA 111. Linear region independent of gain. Output swing limits of A 1 and A 2 must be equal to or more restrictive than VCM. 26
Data sheet examples INA 121. Linear region dependent on gain. At G=1 V/V, VCM must limit region. As gain increases, linear region limited by VCM and VOUT 27
A 1 & A 2 limits from data sheet 28
A 3 limits from data sheet 29
