input signal range up to 26 V at the IN+ and IN– input pins, regardless of whether or not the device has power

applied at the VS pin.

8.3.1 Common-Mode Transients Greater Than 26 V

With a small amount of additional circuitry, the INAx181 can be used in circuits that are subjected to transients

higher than 26 V, such as automotive applications. Use only Zener diodes or Zener-type transient absorbers

(sometimes referred to as transorbs)—any other type of transient absorber has an unacceptable time delay.

Start by adding a pair of resistors as a working impedance for the Zener diode. See Figure 8-9. Keep these

resistors as small as possible; most often, around 10 Ω. Larger values can be used with an effect on gain

that is discussed in the Signal Filtering section. This circuit limits only short-term transients; therefore, many

applications are satisfied with a 10-Ω resistor along with conventional Zener diodes of the lowest acceptable

power rating. This combination uses the least amount of board space. These diodes can be found in packages

as small as SOT-523 or SOD-523.

Figure 8-9. Transient Protection Using Dual Zener Diodes

In the event that low-power Zener diodes do not have sufficient transient absorption capability, a higher-power

transzorb must be used. The most package-efficient solution involves using a single transzorb and back-to-back

diodes between the device inputs, as shown in Figure 8-10. The most space-efficient solutions are dual, series-

connected diodes in a single SOT-523 or SOD-523 package. In either of the examples shown in Figure 8-9 and

Figure 8-10, the total board area required by the INAx181 with all protective components is less than that of an

SO-8 package, and only slightly greater than that of an MSOP-8 package.
