Low-Voltage Operation

The INAx126 can be operated on power supplies as low as ±1.35V. Performance remains excellent with power supplies ranging from ±1.35 V to ±18V. Most parameters vary only slightly throughout this supply voltage range (see Section 5.7). Operation at low supply voltage requires careful attention to make sure that the common-mode voltage remains within the linear range (see Figure 5-6 and Figure 5-7).

The INAx126 operates from a single power supply with careful attention to input common-mode range, output voltage swing of both op amps, and the voltage applied to the Ref pin. Figure 7-8 shows a bridge amplifier circuit operated from a single 5V power supply. The bridge provides an input common-mode voltage near 2.5V, with a relatively small differential voltage.
