Adjustable Gain Setting

Figure 8-2 shows that the INA851 input-stage gain is set by a single external resistor (RG) connected between the RG pins. The gain of the output stage can be set to a unity gain of 1 V/V by floating the G02+ and G02– pins, or to an attenuating gain of 0.2 V/V by shorting those pins to the respective OUT+ and OUT– pins.

Figure 8-2 Simplified Diagram of the INA851 With Gain Equations

If the output stage is in the unity gain configuration, the value of RG is selected according to the following equation:

Equation 1. G = 1 + 6 k R G

When OUT+ is shorted to G02+ (pin 11 to pin 12) and OUT– is shorted to G02– (pin 9 to pin 10) so that the output stage is in the attenuating configuration, the gain equation becomes:

Equation 2. G = 0.2 × 1 + 6 k R G

Table 8-1 lists several commonly used gains and resistor values, as well as the additional gain error that is contributed by the gain resistors. The 6-kΩ term in the gain equation is a result of the sum of the two internal 3-kΩ feedback resistors. These on-chip resistors are laser-trimmed to accurate absolute values. The accuracy and temperature coefficients of these resistors are included in the gain accuracy and drift specifications of the INA851. The 5-kΩ and 1.25-kΩ resistors used in the output stage are ratiometrically matched to achieve stable 1-V/V and 0.2-V/V gain terms; although, the resistor values can shift up to 15%, depending on production.

As shown in Figure 8-2 and explained in more detail in Section 9.4, make sure to connect low-ESR, 0.1-µF ceramic bypass capacitors between each supply pin and ground, and to place these capacitors as close as possible to the device pins.
