Product details
Overview
INA190A1IDDFR from Texas Instruments is a bidirectional, zero-drift, precision current-sense amplifier in an 8-pin SOT-23 (DDF) package, featuring 25 V/V fixed gain, ±15 µV max offset voltage, 132 dB min CMRR, and operation from 1.7 V to 5.5 V supply. It enables microamp-level current measurement in high-side or low-side configurations across –0.2 V to +40 V common-mode voltage range, used for battery charge monitoring and overcurrent protection in portable power systems.
For engineers reviewing the INA190A1IDDFR datasheet, INA190A1IDDFR pinout, INA190A1IDDFR application, or INA190A1IDDFR equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin functions, confirmed bidirectional sensing capability with REF pin biasing, real-world thermal metrics for DDF package, and two rigorously cross-checked alternative parts with documented gain and enable-pin differences.
Technical Context
The INA190A1IDDFR employs a capacitively coupled front-end architecture to achieve ultra-low input bias current (0.5 nA typ) and high common-mode rejection (132 dB min), enabling accurate sensing at microamp levels without degrading accuracy via input filtering. Its zero-drift design maintains ±15 µV max offset and 80 nV/°C max drift across –40°C to +125°C, supporting stable measurements in thermally varying environments.
It integrates an ENABLE pin (Pin 2) that places the output in high-impedance state and reduces quiescent current to 100 nA max when driven low-critical for duty-cycled battery-powered systems. The device supports rail-to-rail output swing (GND + 1 mV / VS – 40 mV) and operates with reference voltage (REF) biasing to enable true bidirectional current detection independent of supply voltage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | 25 V/V - fixed ratio; converts 100 mV sense voltage to 2.5 V output, enabling direct ADC interfacing with 12-bit resolution at 3.3 V full scale. |
| Offset Voltage | ±15 µV max - ensures ≤0.06% error at 25 mV sense voltage, critical for low-current accuracy in battery fuel gauging. |
| Common-Mode Range | –0.2 V to +40 V - allows direct connection to 36-V bus rails while powered from 1.8-V MCU supply, eliminating level-shifting circuitry. |
| Input Bias Current | 0.5 nA typ - permits use of ≥10 kΩ RC filters on IN+/IN− without gain/offset degradation, improving EMI immunity in noisy PSU environments. |
| Quiescent Current | 50 µA typ enabled / 100 nA max disabled - extends battery life in sleep-mode IoT nodes by >500× vs always-on alternatives. |
| Bandwidth | 45 kHz - supports transient response analysis for fast overcurrent events (e.g., USB-C short-circuit detection within 30 µs settling). |
| CMRR | 132 dB min - rejects 40 V bus ripple at 100 kHz with <1 µV error, essential for clean current readouts in switching converter outputs. |
Pinout & Package
INA190A1IDDFR uses the 8-pin Thin SOT-23 (DDF) package (1.60 mm × 2.90 mm), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts in portable electronics. Pin 1 is marked with a dot; pin numbering follows standard SOT-23 orientation (counterclockwise from mark).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NC | No internal connection; must be left floating or tied to GND/VS per layout guidelines-no signal path or decoupling function. |
| 2 | ENABLE | Digital control input; drives device into low-power shutdown (100 nA IQ) when pulled to GND; requires external pull-up if unused. |
| 3 | REF | Analog reference input; sets output midpoint for bidirectional sensing (e.g., 1.65 V bias enables ±2 A measurement on 50 mΩ shunt). |
| 4 | GND | Analog ground return; must connect to low-impedance system ground plane adjacent to IN+/IN− traces to minimize noise coupling. |
| 5 | OUT | Voltage-output node; provides rail-to-rail analog signal (GND + 1 mV to VS – 40 mV) directly compatible with SAR ADC inputs. |
| 6 | VS | Power supply input; accepts 1.7–5.5 V; requires 0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor placed ≤2 mm from pin to suppress high-frequency PSRR artifacts. |
| 7 | IN+ | Positive current-sense input; connects to high-side bus voltage or low-side load side depending on topology-determines current direction polarity. |
| 8 | IN− | Negative current-sense input; complements IN+; differential pair rejects common-mode noise; trace length matching to IN+ is mandatory. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Zero-drift architecture | 80 nV/°C max offset drift ensures <±0.12 µV error over 0–70°C ambient, eliminating calibration in consumer-grade temperature ranges. |
| Bidirectional sensing | REF pin biasing enables symmetric ± full-scale output swing-supports charge/discharge current monitoring in Li-ion battery packs without polarity switching. |
| High CMRR (132 dB) | Rejects 40 V common-mode transients at 100 kHz with <1 µV residual error, maintaining accuracy in buck converter output rails with 500 mVpp ripple. |
| Enable-controlled shutdown | Reduces supply current to 100 nA max while holding output in high-Z state-prevents loading of downstream ADC sample-and-hold circuits during sleep. |
| Rail-to-rail output | Swings to GND + 1 mV and VS – 40 mV, delivering 99.6% of 1.8-V supply range for maximum dynamic range in low-voltage MCU systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar current-sense amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA219BIDR | 2.7–5.5 V supply only; I²C digital output; no ENABLE pin; 0.1% gain error but 100 µV offset. | Requires microcontroller firmware support for I²C reads; unsuitable for analog-loop feedback or fast overcurrent trips. | Select when digital integration, auto-ranging, or built-in ADC are prioritized over analog speed and ultra-low offset. |
| MAX40016AUTT+ | Same 1.7–5.5 V supply; 25 V/V gain; 3 µV offset (typ); no ENABLE pin; 100 kHz bandwidth. | Lacks shutdown mode-draws 60 µA continuously; higher offset limits µA-range accuracy. | Select when higher bandwidth is critical and continuous monitoring is acceptable; avoid where duty-cycled operation saves battery. |
Compared with INA190A1IDDFR, INA219BIDR trades analog simplicity for digital configurability and added features at the cost of latency and MCU dependency, while MAX40016AUTT+ offers faster response but forfeits the enable-controlled ultra-low-power state essential for energy harvesting and long-life battery nodes.

FAQ
What is the maximum common-mode voltage the INA190A1IDDFR can handle?
The INA190A1IDDFR supports a common-mode input range of –0.2 V to +40 V, independent of its 1.7 V to 5.5 V supply voltage. This allows direct high-side sensing on 36-V industrial buses or automotive 24-V systems while powered from a low-voltage microcontroller rail-verified in TI's SBOS863D datasheet Section 6.3.
Does the INA190A1IDDFR require external components for basic operation?
Yes-the INA190A1IDDFR requires a 0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor between VS and GND placed within 2 mm of the pins, plus external resistors for REF biasing in bidirectional applications. No gain-setting resistors are needed since gain is fixed at 25 V/V. Input RC filters are optional but do not degrade accuracy due to the device's 0.5 nA input bias current.
How does the ENABLE pin affect the output state of the INA190A1IDDFR?
When the ENABLE pin (Pin 2) of the INA190A1IDDFR is pulled low, the device enters shutdown mode: supply current drops to ≤100 nA, and the OUT pin transitions to a high-impedance state-verified in Electrical Characteristics Table 6.5 (IODIS = 1–5 µA). This prevents loading of downstream circuits and eliminates output contention during system sleep cycles.
Can the INA190A1IDDFR measure bidirectional current without external op-amps?
Yes-the INA190A1IDDFR natively supports bidirectional current sensing using only the REF pin. Applying a mid-supply voltage (e.g., 1.65 V on a 3.3 V system) to REF centers the output: positive IN+–IN− yields VOUT > VREF; negative differential yields VOUT < VREF. This eliminates external summing amplifiers-confirmed in Functional Block Diagram (Section 7.2) and Equation 1 of the datasheet.
What is the typical quiescent current of the INA190A1IDDFR at 25°C?
The INA190A1IDDFR draws 50 µA typical quiescent current at 25°C when enabled (Section 6.5, IQ = 48–65 µA), and ≤100 nA when disabled via the ENABLE pin (IQDIS = 10–100 nA). This ultra-low active current enables continuous monitoring in portable devices without compromising battery runtime-validated across all operating temperatures in Figure D027.
