JAJSH99C September 2000 – September 2022 INA118
PRODUCTION DATA
Figure 9-1 shows the basic connections required for operation of the INA118. Applications with noisy or high impedance power supplies can require decoupling capacitors close to the device pins, as shown. The output is referred to the output reference (Ref) pin, which is normally grounded. This connection must be low-impedance to maintain good common-mode rejection. A resistance of 12 Ω in series with the Ref pin causes a typical device to degrade to approximately 80-dB CMR (G = 1).
Figure 9-1 depicts an input signal with a 5-mV, 1-kHz signal with a 1-VPP common-mode signal, a condition often observed in process-control systems. Figure 9-2 depicts the output of the INA118 (G = 250) depicting the clean recovered 1-kHz waveform.
