Hi Steve, Thanks for the instant reply. We are maintaining the desired CMIR mentioned in the catalog. The following is the behavior: We Ground one of the inputs and apply voltage on the other in both cases below. 1) The instrumentation amplifier operates in single supply voltage, 5V, the voltage isn't as expected at the output. 2) Same amplifier is used again with the input voltage split into +2.5V at Vcc+ and -2.5V at Vee-. In this config we are able to get our desired output.
