FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
• Qualified For Automotive Applications
The INA138-Q1 and INA168-Q1 are high-side,
• ESD Protection Exceeds 2000 V Per MIL-STD-
unipolar, current shunt monitors. Wide input common-
883, Method 3015; Exceeds 200 V Using
mode voltage range, low quiescent current, and tiny
Machine Model (C = 200 pF, R = 0)
TSSOP and SOT23 packaging enable uses in a
• Complete Unipolar High-Side Current-
variety of applications.
Measurement Circuit
Input common-mode and power-supply voltages are
• Wide Supply And Common-Mode Range
independent and can range from 2.7 V to 36 V for the
INA138-Q1 and 2.7 V to 60 V for the INA168-Q1.
– INA138-Q1: 2.7 V to 36 V
Quiescent current is only 25 μA, which permits
– INA168-Q1: 2.7 V to 60 V
connecting the power supply to either side of the
• Independent Supply and Input Common-Mode
current-measurement shunt with minimal error.
Voltages
The device converts a differential input voltage to a
• Single Resistor Gain Set
current output. This current is converted back to a
• Low Quiescent Current (25 µA Typical)
voltage with an external load resistor that sets any
gain from 1 to over 100. Although designed for
• Wide Temperature Range: –40°C to 125°C
current shunt measurement, the circuit invites
• TSSOP−8 and SOT23−5 Packages
creative applications in measurement and level
shifting.
APPLICATIONS
Both the INA138-Q1 and INA168-Q1 are available in
• Current Shunt Measurement
TSSOP−8 and SOT23−5 and are specified for the
• Portable and Battery-Backup Systems
–40°C to 125°C temperature range.
• Battery Chargers
• Power Management
• Precision Current Source
