Product details
Overview
INA190A3IDCKT from Texas Instruments is a bidirectional, zero-drift, precision current-sense amplifier with 100 V/V fixed gain, ±15 µV max offset voltage, and 132 dB min CMRR. It operates from 1.7 V to 5.5 V supply, supports –0.2 V to +40 V common-mode input range, and delivers 35 kHz bandwidth. It enables microamp-level current measurement in high-side or low-side configurations for battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the INA190A3IDCKT datasheet, INA190A3IDCKT pinout, INA190A3IDCKT application, or INA190A3IDCKT equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultra-low 0.5 nA typical input bias current, 50 µA typical quiescent current, enable-controlled shutdown (100 nA max), rail-to-rail output swing (GND +1 mV / VS –40 mV), and SC70-6 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The INA190A3IDCKT uses a capacitively coupled front-end architecture to achieve 132 dB minimum common-mode rejection and isolate DC common-mode voltages from downstream stages. Its zero-drift design maintains ±15 µV max offset and 80 nV/°C max drift across –40°C to +125°C, enabling accurate low-current sensing even at light loads.
This variant implements fixed 100 V/V gain (A3 option) with ±0.3% max gain error and 7 ppm/°C max gain drift. It features bidirectional capability via external REF pin biasing and enters high-impedance output state during ENABLE-driven shutdown - a function available only in DDF and RSW packages, not in the SC70-6 (DCK) package of INA190A3IDCKT.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | 100 V/V fixed - sets output voltage = 100 × (IN+ − IN−) + VREF; enables precise scaling for 10-mV full-scale shunt signals. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±15 µV max - ensures ≤0.15% error at 10-mV sense voltage; critical for sub-100-µA current resolution. |
| Common-Mode Range | –0.2 V to +40 V - supports direct high-side sensing on 36-V bus rails without level-shifting, independent of 1.7–5.5-V supply. |
| Supply Current (Enabled) | 65 µA max - allows continuous monitoring in always-on subsystems with <1 µW power overhead at 1.8 V. |
| Bandwidth | 35 kHz - sufficient for DC–10-kHz current transients in battery protection, PSU telemetry, and motor phase monitoring. |
| Input Bias Current | 0.5 nA typ - permits use of ≥10-kΩ RC filters without gain/offset degradation; enables stable µA-range measurements. |
| CMRR | 132 dB min - rejects >20-V common-mode noise (e.g., switching ripple) to preserve <1-µV RTI error floor. |
Pinout & Package
INA190A3IDCKT is packaged in a 6-pin SC70 (DCK) package measuring 2.00 mm × 1.25 mm, optimized for high-density portable PCBs. The ENABLE pin is not implemented in this package variant.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | REF | Reference input for bidirectional operation; sets zero-current output level (e.g., 0.9 V → ±0.9 V output swing around midpoint). |
| 2 | GND | Analog ground reference; must be star-connected to minimize PSRR degradation and offset instability. |
| 3 | VS | Single 1.7–5.5 V analog supply; powers internal amplifiers and bias circuitry; bypass with 0.1-µF ceramic capacitor. |
| 4 | IN+ | Positive current-sense input; connects to bus side (high-side) or load side (low-side) of shunt resistor. |
| 5 | IN− | Negative current-sense input; connects to load side (high-side) or ground side (low-side) of shunt resistor. |
| 6 | OUT | Voltage-output node; delivers 100×(IN+−IN−)+VREF; drives 10-kΩ loads with GND+1 mV to VS−40 mV swing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional sensing | Enabled by externally applied REF voltage; supports both charge/discharge current monitoring in battery packs. |
| Zero-drift architecture | 80 nV/°C max offset drift - maintains calibration stability over temperature without periodic nulling. |
| Rail-to-rail output | GND+1 mV / VS−40 mV swing - maximizes dynamic range on 1.8-V supplies (e.g., 1.799 V usable span). |
| Ultra-low input bias | 0.5 nA typ - eliminates shunt resistor self-heating error and enables >1-MΩ filter networks for EMI suppression. |
| High CMRR | 132 dB min - rejects bus-voltage transients and switching noise in DC/DC converter feedback paths. |

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 | I²C digital output, 16-bit ADC, integrated shunt; no REF pin; 26 V max common-mode; 1000-ppm/°C gain drift. | Requires microcontroller I²C interface; lacks analog output flexibility; unsuitable for analog control loops or high-CM environments. | Select when digital BOM consolidation and built-in calibration outweigh need for analog output or 40-V CM range. |
| MAX4008BAUT+T | 100 V/V gain, 2.7–5.5 V supply, 120 dB CMRR, 200 nA input bias, SOT23-6 package; no zero-drift architecture. | Higher offset (±300 µV) limits µA sensing; lower CMRR reduces noise immunity in noisy industrial settings. | Select for cost-sensitive, non-critical applications where 0.3% gain error and 300-µV offset are acceptable. |
Compared with INA190A3IDCKT, INA219BIDR trades analog flexibility and 40-V CM capability for digital integration, while MAX4008BAUT+T sacrifices zero-drift stability and CMRR for lower unit cost - making INA190A3IDCKT optimal for precision, wide-CM, low-power analog current sensing.

FAQ
What is the maximum common-mode voltage supported by the INA190A3IDCKT?
The INA190A3IDCKT supports a common-mode input voltage range of –0.2 V to +40 V, independent of its 1.7–5.5 V supply voltage. This allows direct high-side sensing on 36-V bus rails without external level-shifting circuitry. The specification is validated across the full –40°C to +125°C operating temperature range and applies to both IN+ and IN− pins referenced to GND.
Does the INA190A3IDCKT have an ENABLE pin?
No, the INA190A3IDCKT does not include an ENABLE pin. That feature is available only in the DDF (SOT-23-8) and RSW (UQFN-10) package variants of the INA190 family. The DCK (SC70-6) package used for INA190A3IDCKT omits the ENABLE function entirely - the device remains continuously enabled when powered within its recommended operating conditions.
What is the typical quiescent current of the INA190A3IDCKT?
The INA190A3IDCKT draws 48 µA typical quiescent current at 25°C and 1.8 V supply, with a maximum of 65 µA across temperature and voltage extremes. This low IQ enables continuous current monitoring in battery-powered systems without significant runtime impact - for example, adding only ~0.5 µW of overhead at 1.8 V.
Can the INA190A3IDCKT measure bidirectional current?
Yes, the INA190A3IDCKT supports bidirectional current sensing via its REF pin. Applying a mid-supply voltage (e.g., VS/2 = 0.9 V at 1.8 V) to REF centers the output: positive differential input (IN+ > IN−) yields VOUT > VREF, while negative differential input yields VOUT < VREF. This enables single-supply detection of charge/discharge direction in battery applications.
What is the gain accuracy specification for the INA190A3IDCKT?
The INA190A3IDCKT has a gain error of ±0.3% maximum across temperature and supply voltage, with typical performance tighter than ±0.06%. This 100 V/V fixed gain is laser-trimmed at wafer test and remains stable with 7 ppm/°C max drift - ensuring consistent scaling from µA to ampere-level currents without recalibration.
