Product details
Overview
INA211CIRSWT from Texas Instruments is a precision voltage-output current-shunt monitor optimized for bidirectional, low- or high-side sensing in power management systems. It features 500 V/V fixed gain, ±35 µV max offset voltage, 0.5 µV/°C max offset drift, and operates from 2.7 V to 26 V supply across –40°C to +125°C - enabling accurate 10-mV full-scale shunt measurements in notebook battery protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the INA211CIRSWT datasheet, INA211CIRSWT pinout, INA211CIRSWT application, or INA211CIRSWT equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated SC70/UQFN package mapping, confirmed pin functions, and real-world implementation context for current-sense amplifier selection in space-constrained, high-common-mode industrial and portable power designs.
Technical Context
The INA211CIRSWT implements a zero-drift chopper-stabilized architecture with matched input resistors (2 kΩ) and internal 500 V/V gain, supporting bidirectional current measurement via differential input (IN+, IN–) referenced to programmable REF. Its common-mode input range spans –0.1 V to 26 V independent of supply voltage, allowing direct sensing on 12-V or 24-V rails while powered from 3.3-V or 5-V logic supplies.
It delivers 7 kHz bandwidth (CLOAD = 10 pF), 0.4 V/µs slew rate, and 25 nV/√Hz input-referred voltage noise. Gain error is limited to ±0.5% over temperature (Version C), with 10 ppm/°C max gain drift and 105–140 dB CMRR - ensuring stable performance under dynamic load transients and noisy supply conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Fixed Gain | 500 V/V - sets output scaling for 10-mV shunt drop → 5-V full-scale output, minimizing ADC resolution loss. |
| Max Offset Voltage | ±35 µV - enables accurate sub-100-mA current sensing with 10-mΩ shunts at room temperature. |
| Offset Drift | 0.5 µV/°C max - ensures <±0.5 mV total offset shift over –40°C to +125°C, critical for thermal stability. |
| Common-Mode Range | –0.1 V to 26 V - supports high-side sensing on 24-V bus without level-shifting or external biasing. |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7 V to 26 V - allows single-supply operation across wide-input DC-DC converters and battery-powered systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 100 µA max - enables always-on monitoring in low-power IoT and portable devices without significant battery drain. |
| Bandwidth | 7 kHz - sufficient for detecting overcurrent events and closed-loop feedback in SMPS and battery chargers. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive under-hood, industrial motor control, and telecom power modules. |
Pinout & Package
INA211CIRSWT is available in the RSW (10-pin Thin UQFN) package, measuring 1.80 mm × 1.40 mm with 0.5-mm pitch. This thermally enhanced, leadless package provides low junction-to-board thermal resistance (18.7 °C/W) and supports high-density PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Analog power supply | Accepts 2.7–26 V; must be decoupled with 0.01–0.1 µF capacitor close to pin for stability. |
| GND | Analog ground reference | Primary return path; requires low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| IN+ | Noninverting input | Connects to supply side of shunt resistor; two pins (2 & 3) must be tied together in RSW package. |
| IN− | Inverting input | Connects to load side of shunt resistor; two pins (4 & 5) must be tied together in RSW package. |
| REF | Reference input | Sets output common-mode level (0 V to V+); buffered reference required if driven by resistive divider. |
| OUT | Analog output | Voltage-output stage drives 10-kΩ load; swing is (V+) – 0.2 V to GND + 0.05 V over temperature. |
| NC | No internal connection | Pins 1 and 7 are unconnected; may be left floating or tied to GND for mechanical stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Zero-drift architecture | Eliminates 1/f noise and long-term drift, enabling stable 10-mV full-scale shunt measurements over time and temperature. |
| Bidirectional sensing capability | Supports both charging and discharging current detection in battery management systems using single-ended output. |
| High common-mode rejection | 105–140 dB CMRR maintains accuracy despite large supply rail noise or ground bounce in high-current paths. |

| SC70 and UQFN packaging | RSW (10-pin UQFN) option reduces board area by >50% vs SOIC, ideal for compact power modules and mobile adapters. |
| Extended temperature qualification | Specified from –40°C to +125°C meets AEC-Q200 stress test requirements for industrial and automotive power stages. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar current-sense amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA212CIRSWT | 1000 V/V gain, ±35 µV offset, 4 kHz bandwidth - higher gain but lower BW than INA211CIRSWT. | Better suited for ultra-low shunt drops (<5 mV); less responsive to fast transients due to reduced bandwidth. | Select when maximizing sensitivity on sub-5-mΩ shunts outweighs need for rapid overcurrent response. |
| INA213CIRSWT | 50 V/V gain, ±100 µV offset, 80 kHz bandwidth - lower gain, higher offset, significantly higher BW. | Optimized for high-current, high-speed applications (e.g., motor phase current) where 100-mV shunt drops are acceptable. | Choose when measuring >1-A currents with 100-mΩ shunts and requiring faster transient detection than 7 kHz allows. |
Compared with INA211CIRSWT, INA212CIRSWT trades bandwidth for higher gain sensitivity, while INA213CIRSWT sacrifices offset precision for speed and dynamic range - making INA211CIRSWT the balanced choice for general-purpose 10–100 mA sensing with thermal stability and layout simplicity.

FAQ
What is the maximum common-mode voltage supported by the INA211CIRSWT?
The INA211CIRSWT supports a common-mode input voltage range of –0.1 V to 26 V across its full operating temperature range (–40°C to +125°C). This specification applies specifically to Version C devices like INA211CIRSWT and enables reliable high-side sensing on 24-V industrial buses without external level-shifting circuitry. The device maintains accuracy even when VIN+ exceeds the V+ supply rail by up to 13 V.
Does the INA211CIRSWT require external calibration for offset error?
No, the INA211CIRSWT does not require external calibration for offset error. Its zero-drift architecture guarantees a maximum input offset voltage of ±35 µV at 25°C and ±0.5 µV/°C drift over –40°C to +125°C. This inherent stability eliminates the need for factory or field calibration in most applications, including battery fuel gauging and power supply current monitoring where long-term drift would otherwise degrade accuracy.
Can the INA211CIRSWT be used for bidirectional current sensing?
Yes, the INA211CIRSWT supports true bidirectional current sensing. By setting the REF pin to mid-supply (e.g., V+/2), the output voltage centers at that reference - rising for current in one direction and falling for the opposite direction. This configuration is explicitly validated in TI's SBOS437K datasheet and widely implemented in lithium-ion battery protection circuits where charge and discharge currents must be independently monitored using a single shunt resistor.
What is the recommended bypass capacitor for the V+ pin of the INA211CIRSWT?
The recommended bypass capacitor for the V+ pin of the INA211CIRSWT is 0.01 µF to 0.1 µF, placed as close as possible to the pin. TI's datasheet specifies this range for stability across all operating conditions. For noisy environments (e.g., switch-mode power supplies), adding a parallel 1-µF ceramic capacitor improves high-frequency noise rejection without affecting loop stability. Avoid tantalum or electrolytic capacitors due to ESR-related instability risks.
How does the RSW (UQFN) package of the INA211CIRSWT improve thermal performance compared to SC70?
The RSW (10-pin Thin UQFN) package of the INA211CIRSWT achieves a junction-to-board thermal resistance (RθJB) of 18.7 °C/W - more than 3× better than the SC70 package's 72.1 °C/W. This improvement results from the UQFN's exposed thermal pad and shorter internal thermal paths, enabling higher continuous current handling in compact layouts. In practice, this allows sustained operation at full rated current in thermally constrained spaces like USB-C PD adapters and embedded power modules.
