BIDIRECTIONAL OPERATION

Bidirectional operation allows the INA282 family to measure currents through a resistive shunt in two directions.

In this case, the output can be set anywhere within the limits of what the reference inputs allow (that is, between

0V to 9V, but never to exceed the supply voltage). Typically, it is set at half-scale for equal range in both

directions. In some cases, however, it is set at a voltage other than half-scale when the bidirectional current is

nonsymmetrical.

The quiescent output voltage is set by applying voltage(s) to the reference inputs. REF1 and REF2 are

connected to internal resistors that connect to an internal offset node. There is no operational difference between

the pins.

External Reference Output

Connecting both pins together and to a reference produces an output at the reference voltage when there is no

differential input; this configuration is illustrated in Figure 36. The output moves down from the reference voltage

when the input is negative relative to the –IN pin and up when the input is positive relative to the –IN pin. Note

that this technique is the most accurate way to bias the output to a precise voltage.
