Product details
Overview
INA190A2QDCKRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive current-sense amplifier optimized for bidirectional microamp-precision sensing in 12-V battery-connected systems. It delivers 50 V/V fixed gain, ±15 µV max offset voltage, 132 dB min CMRR, and operates from 1.7 V to 5.5 V supply across –40°C to +125°C - enabling high-accuracy BMS and eCall power monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the INA190A2QDCKRQ1 datasheet, INA190A2QDCKRQ1 pinout, INA190A2QDCKRQ1 application, or INA190A2QDCKRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include picoamp input bias (500 pA typ), 100 nA max shutdown current, ±0.3% gain error (A2 variant), 37 kHz bandwidth, and SC70-6 package compatibility with high-side/low-side configurations.
Technical Context
The INA190A2QDCKRQ1 uses a capacitively coupled front-end architecture to achieve ultra-low input bias current (500 pA typ) and reject DC common-mode voltage shifts - delivering 132 dB minimum CMRR independent of supply rail. Its zero-drift topology maintains ±15 µV max offset and 80 nV/°C max drift over temperature.
This SC70-6 device supports bidirectional sensing via external REF pin biasing, accepts –0.2 V to +40 V common-mode inputs (survivable to 42 V), and features rail-to-rail output swing (GND + 1 mV / VS – 40 mV) with 50 V/V gain calibrated to ±0.3% error across –40°C to +125°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | 50 V/V - fixed ratio converting shunt voltage to amplified analog output; enables precise current calculation with known RSENSE |
| Offset Voltage (VOS) | ±15 µV max - sets minimum resolvable current; allows use of low-value shunts without sacrificing light-load accuracy |
| Common-Mode Rejection (CMRR) | 132 dB min - rejects bus voltage fluctuations in automotive 12-V systems, preserving measurement integrity during load dumps |
| Input Bias Current (IIB) | 500 pA typical - permits microamp-range current sensing and minimizes error from shunt resistor self-heating |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.7 V to 5.5 V - supports operation from single-cell Li-ion up to 5-V logic rails while maintaining full 40-V common-mode range |
| Bandwidth | 37 kHz - sufficient for transient detection in battery protection, motor control feedback, and telematics power sequencing |
| Quiescent Current | 50 µA typical - enables always-on monitoring in low-power automotive modules without excessive battery drain |
Pinout & Package
INA190A2QDCKRQ1 is packaged in a 6-pin SC70 (2.00 mm × 1.25 mm) footprint. This compact automotive-qualified package supports reflow soldering and meets AEC-Q100 thermal requirements (RθJA = 170.7°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - REF | Analog reference input | Sets output midpoint for bidirectional sensing; applying VS/2 enables symmetric ±ILOAD measurement around mid-supply |
| 2 - GND | Analog ground | Return path for internal circuitry and output stage; must be low-impedance to preserve PSRR and noise immunity |
| 3 - VS | Power supply | Single 1.7–5.5 V rail powering all internal stages; independent of input common-mode voltage range |
| 4 - IN+ | Positive current-sense input | Connects to bus/high-side of shunt (high-side) or load side (low-side); differential pair input with 500 pA bias |
| 5 - IN− | Negative current-sense input | Connects to load/ground side of shunt (high-side) or ground (low-side); matched to IN+ for CMRR optimization |
| 6 - OUT | Analog output | Voltage output = GAIN × (VIN+ − VIN−) + VREF; rail-to-rail swing supports 1.8-V operation with >99% dynamic range utilization |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional sensing support | Enabled by REF pin biasing - allows single-device monitoring of charge/discharge currents in BMS and regenerative braking circuits |
| Ultra-low input bias current | 500 pA typical - eliminates shunt error from input loading, enabling accurate sub-mA measurements with ≥1 Ω resistors |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for –40°C to +125°C ambient operation - ensures reliability in engine bay, under-hood, and infotainment module deployments |
| Rail-to-rail output swing | GND + 1 mV / VS – 40 mV - maximizes ADC resolution when interfacing with 12-bit microcontrollers operating at 1.8 V or 3.3 V |
| High common-mode survivability | Withstands 42 V absolute max on IN+/IN− - protects against load dump transients in 12-V automotive electrical 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA240A2QDRQ1 | Higher gain error (±0.6%), higher IIB (±25 nA), no REF pin - unidirectional only | Lacks bidirectional capability and microamp sensing; suited for high-current (>1 A) motor phase sensing | Select if unidirectional high-side sensing suffices and ±0.6% gain error is acceptable for your BOM tolerance stack-up |
| MAX40010FAUA+ | Lower bandwidth (20 kHz), higher VOS (±100 µV), same 50 V/V gain, SC70-6 package | Not AEC-Q100 qualified; limited to industrial/commercial temperature range (–40°C to +125°C not guaranteed) | Consider only for non-automotive designs where AEC-Q100 compliance is not required and 100 µV offset is tolerable |
Compared with INA240A2QDRQ1 and MAX40010FAUA+, the INA190A2QDCKRQ1 uniquely combines AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, bidirectional operation via REF pin, 500 pA input bias, and ±15 µV offset - making it the only option for automotive-grade microamp-precision current monitoring in space-constrained SC70 layouts.

FAQ
What is the maximum common-mode voltage the INA190A2QDCKRQ1 can withstand?
The INA190A2QDCKRQ1 supports a continuous common-mode input range of –0.2 V to +40 V and survives transient voltages up to 42 V on its IN+ and IN– pins. This enables direct connection to 12-V automotive battery rails while maintaining accuracy during load dump events defined in ISO 7637-2.
Does the INA190A2QDCKRQ1 support bidirectional current sensing?
Yes, the INA190A2QDCKRQ1 supports bidirectional current sensing through its dedicated REF pin. Applying a reference voltage (e.g., VS/2) to REF centers the output voltage, allowing positive and negative differential inputs to produce outputs above and below that reference - essential for charge/discharge monitoring in BMS and eCall backup power paths.
What is the gain error specification for the INA190A2QDCKRQ1?
The INA190A2QDCKRQ1 has a gain error of ±0.3% maximum across temperature (–40°C to +125°C). This applies specifically to the A2 variant (50 V/V gain) and is tighter than the ±0.4% spec for the A5 variant, ensuring predictable scaling between shunt voltage and output for precision current reconstruction.
Is the INA190A2QDCKRQ1 available in a package with an ENABLE pin?
No - the INA190A2QDCKRQ1 uses the SC70-6 (DCK) package, which does not include an ENABLE pin. The ENABLE function is only available in the 8-pin SOT-23 (DDF) variant (e.g., INA190A2QDDFRQ1). For low-power shutdown, consider the DDF version or external enable circuitry with the DCK variant.
What is the typical input bias current of the INA190A2QDCKRQ1?
The typical input bias current of the INA190A2QDCKRQ1 is 500 pA at 25°C, with a maximum of 3 nA over temperature. This ultra-low value enables accurate microamp-range current measurements and minimizes error contributions from shunt resistor self-heating or PCB leakage paths.
