INA122P - 36V Micropower Instrumentation Amplifier | TI
MPN: INA122P ✓ פעילINA122P סקירה
An instrumentation amplifier is a specialized amplifier category that measures the voltage difference between two input signals while rejecting common-mode noise. INA122P belongs to the broader hierarchy of instrumentation amplifier, differential amplifier, amplifier IC, and analog signal-conditioning IC. This position allows the device to sit between a sensor and an ADC or measurement system, where weak sensor outputs must be amplified without allowing the common-mode voltage to corrupt the result.
Key features include a 60 µA low quiescent current, single-supply operation up to 36 V, dual-supply operation up to ±18 V, a common-mode range extending to V− − 0.1 V, and rail-to-rail output swing. The verified manufacturer data also identifies low offset voltage, low offset drift, and low noise as important characteristics for precision measurements. These features support battery-powered and portable systems where power consumption, input range, and signal fidelity are primary design constraints.
The two-op-amp design provides accurate, low-noise differential acquisition in a single integrated circuit. Unlike a general-purpose op-amp used with a manually matched resistor network, the INA122P integrates the differential signal-conditioning function and is intended for applications such as bridges, load cells, thermocouples, and other low-level transducers. The common-mode and output-swing characteristics allow the amplifier to operate near the lower supply rail, which is useful in single-supply sensor systems.
Typical applications include portable medical monitoring, industrial data acquisition, battery-powered instrumentation, bridge and load-cell signal conditioning, thermocouple interfaces, and low-level sensor measurement. In each case, the device can amplify a differential sensor signal while its low quiescent current helps preserve battery life. Designers should still verify input common-mode limits, output swing, gain configuration, supply range, and external resistor or capacitor requirements against the manufacturer datasheet.
A key design consideration is maintaining adequate supply headroom and correct gain-setting components. Input and output signal ranges must remain within the specified common-mode and swing limits at every temperature and load condition. Place the device close to the sensor source when possible to reduce noise pickup, and follow the manufacturer datasheet for decoupling, gain resistor selection, grounding, and input protection.
This page combines the verified Texas Instruments datasheet information, distributor listing data, and application-oriented engineering guidance for engineers evaluating the INA122P. It also distinguishes exact INA122 family packaging variants from unverified substitutes, helping PCB designers avoid assuming that different packages or amplifier families are drop-in compatible.

Portable Medical Instrumentation
INA122P fits portable medical measurement systems that must acquire weak differential sensor signals while keeping power consumption low. Its verified 60 µA quiescent current is valuable when the instrument operates from a battery, and the 2.2 V to 36 V supply range allows integration across different portable-system rails. The amplifier can condition pressure, temperature, or other transducer outputs before an ADC. Designers should verify common-mode voltage, output swing, isolation requirements, and medical-product validation procedures.
מומלץ
Load-Cell Signal Conditioning
INA122P is suited to load-cell and strain-gauge front ends that produce small differential signals in the presence of larger common-mode voltages. Its instrumentation-amplifier architecture is intended for accurate differential acquisition, while the 60 µA quiescent current supports low-power portable weighing systems. Use the device ahead of an ADC or measurement converter and confirm excitation voltage, input common-mode limits, gain setting, and output range. PCB layout should keep sensor traces short and away from switching circuitry.
מומלץ
Battery-Powered Data Acquisition
The INA122P supports compact data-acquisition systems where every milliamp of supply current can affect battery life. Its 60 µA quiescent current helps the analog front end operate continuously, and its supply range from 2.2 V to 36 V provides flexibility for single-supply and higher-voltage arrangements. The device can amplify sensor differences before conversion or transmission. Confirm actual power consumption across operating mode, sensor impedance, gain components, and downstream circuitry, and validate common-mode range for every input condition.
מומלץ
Thermocouple and Low-Level Sensor Interface
INA122P can serve as the differential input stage for thermocouples and other low-level sensors whose useful signal is much smaller than the surrounding common-mode voltage. Its low offset voltage, low offset drift, and low-noise positioning are important when preserving small sensor variations. The amplifier’s verified common-mode limit and rail-to-rail output swing determine how closely the sensor may operate to the supply rails. Use appropriate input protection, cold-junction compensation where required, and grounding techniques designed for the thermocouple itself.
מומלץ
Bridge-Sensor Measurement
The INA122P is appropriate for resistive bridge sensors where the measurement depends on a small differential voltage generated by a change in resistance or pressure. Its instrumentation-amplifier function rejects common-mode excitation and provides a clean differential input stage for downstream conversion. The device’s 2.2 V to 36 V supply capability supports flexible bridge excitation architectures. Confirm the bridge excitation voltage, sensor output range, gain network, input protection, and ADC input range before production release.
מומלץ
Industrial Sensor Interface
INA122P can be used in industrial sensor interfaces when low power, differential measurement, and flexible supply operation are important. Its 60 µA quiescent current is useful for remote or portable instrumentation, while the wide supply range supports both compact low-voltage systems and higher-voltage industrial front ends. The common-mode specification must be checked against the sensor and excitation circuit, particularly when long cables or grounding differences are present. Add filtering and protection as required by the application environment.

הערות תכנון
Use the verified 60 µA quiescent current as the baseline for battery and portable-instrumentation power budgeting, but include the current consumed by the gain-setting network, sensor, ADC, and external protection. Because INA122P accepts a 2.2 V to 36 V supply range, confirm the actual rail voltage against the sensor common-mode requirement and the required output headroom. Estimated: the amplifier’s own quiescent contribution at 3.3 V is 0.198 mW, calculated as 3.3 V × 60 µA; this excludes all other circuit loads.
Place the INA122P close to the sensor input connector and keep the differential input traces short, matched where practical, and away from switching nodes and high-current return paths. Use a quiet ground reference and follow the manufacturer datasheet for decoupling and gain-component placement. A long cable or improperly grounded sensor can introduce noise that no amount of downstream digital filtering can fully recover.
Do not assume that the output can swing exactly to either supply rail under every load, temperature, or supply condition. Although the verified data describes rail-to-rail output swing, check the manufacturer operating conditions and leave the required output margin for the ADC input range. Also verify the input common-mode voltage against the specified V− − 0.1 V limit before connecting a sensor.
Treat the reference and gain-setting network as part of the precision signal path. Keep those components physically close to the appropriate INA122P pins, use stable ground references, and avoid routing high-current or digital return paths beneath differential inputs. If the sensor is remote, add appropriately selected input protection and filtering and validate the complete board for temperature drift and common-mode transients.
