Introduction
INA129U2K5 Precision Instrumentation Amplifier
The INA129U2K5 is a low-power, high-precision instrumentation amplifier designed for precision signal conditioning in measurement systems, featuring ultra-low offset voltage and high common-mode rejection.
Product Overview
The INA129U2K5 is a low-power, high-precision instrumentation amplifier from TI, designed for precision signal conditioning in measurement systems. It features a versatile three-op-amp architecture with current-feedback input circuitry, delivering wide bandwidth even at high gain. The device is laser-trimmed for ultra-low offset voltage, low drift, and high common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR), making it ideal for amplifying small differential signals in noisy environments. The U2K5 suffix denotes an 8-pin SOIC surface-mount package in tape-and-reel packaging.
Core Functions & Specifications
Precision Signal Amplification
  • Gain Configuration: Gain is set by a single external resistor (RG), with the gain formula: G = 1 + 49.4kΩ / RG, supporting gains from 1 to 10,000
  • Low Offset & Drift: Max input offset voltage = 50 μV; max offset drift = 0.5 μV/°C, ensuring long-term measurement stability
  • High Input Impedance: Input impedance > 10 GΩ, minimizing loading on high-impedance sensors
  • Low Input Bias Current: Max input bias current = 5 nA, suitable for low-level sensor signals
High Common-Mode Rejection
CMRR ≥ 120 dB (at G ≥ 100), effectively rejecting common-mode noise and interference. Wide input common-mode voltage range, compatible with single-ended and differential sensor outputs.
Wide Bandwidth & Slew Rate
Current-feedback design provides 200 kHz bandwidth at G = 100 and 1.3 MHz at minimum gain. Slew rate = 4 V/μs, enabling fast response to dynamic signals.
Power & Protection
  • Wide Supply Range: Operates from ±2.25 V to ±18 V (single supply: 4.5 V to 36 V), suitable for battery-powered systems
  • Low Quiescent Current: Typical 700 μA, minimizing power consumption
  • Input Overvoltage Protection: Withstands ±40 V without damage, enhancing system robustness
