APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The INA321 is a modified version of the classic two op amp
instrumentation amplifier, with an additional gain amplifier.
Figure 1 shows the basic connections for the operation of
the INA321 and INA2321. The power supply should be
capacitively decoupled with 0.1µF capacitors as close to
the INA321 as possible for noisy or high-impedance
applications.
The output is referred to the reference terminal, which
must be at least 1.2V below the positive supply rail.
OPERATING VOLTAGE
The INA321 family is fully specified over a supply range of
+2.7V to +5.5V, with key parameters assured over the
temperature range of −55°C to +125°C. Parameters that
vary significantly with operating conditions, such as load
conditions or temperature, are shown in the Typical
Characteristics.
The INA321 may be operated on a single supply. Figure 2
shows a bridge amplifier circuit operated from a single +5V
supply. The bridge provides a small differential voltage
riding on an input common-mode voltage.
