Product details
Overview
INA213CIDCKT from Texas Instruments is a voltage-output, zero-drift current-shunt monitor optimized for bidirectional high- or low-side sensing in power management systems. It features 50 V/V fixed gain, ±100 µV maximum input offset voltage (RTI), 80 kHz bandwidth, –0.1 V to 26 V common-mode input range, and operates from 2.7 V to 26 V supply with ≤100 µA quiescent current. It enables precise 10-mV full-scale shunt measurements in battery chargers and telecom power rails.
For engineers reviewing the INA213CIDCKT datasheet, INA213CIDCKT pinout, INA213CIDCKT application, or INA213CIDCKT equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package-specific pin functions, real-world use-value per application, and two validated alternative parts - all grounded in TI's SBOS437K specification sheet and official orderable data.
Technical Context
The INA213CIDCKT implements a zero-drift chopper-stabilized amplifier architecture to achieve <0.5 µV/°C offset drift and 10 ppm/°C gain drift over –40°C to +125°C. Its differential input stage supports bidirectional current sensing with 100 dB minimum CMRR at DC and maintains accuracy across a 26-V common-mode range independent of supply voltage.
It uses internal matched thin-film resistors (RINT = 20 kΩ) for 50 V/V gain, enabling stable operation with minimal external components. The SC70-6 package supports compact layout while maintaining thermal resistance of 227.3°C/W (Junction-to-Ambient), suitable for space-constrained power monitoring nodes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Fixed Gain | 50 V/V - sets output scaling for 20-mV shunt drop → 1-V output; enables direct ADC interfacing without external amplification |
| Input Offset Voltage (max) | ±100 µV RTI - supports accurate 10-mV full-scale shunt sensing with <1% error at low currents |
| Common-Mode Range | –0.1 V to 26 V - allows high-side sensing on 24-V industrial rails or low-side sensing near ground, independent of 2.7–26 V supply |
| Bandwidth | 80 kHz - captures fast load transients in battery charging and DC-DC converter feedback loops |
| Quiescent Current | 100 µA max - enables always-on current monitoring in energy-sensitive portable and IoT devices |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial power module environments |
| Gain Error (Version C) | ±0.5% max over temperature - ensures consistent calibration across thermal cycling without software compensation |
Pinout & Package
The INA213CIDCKT is packaged in a 6-pin SC70 (DCK) package measuring 2.00 mm × 1.25 mm, with exposed pad omitted - suitable for reflow assembly and moderate-power dissipation (θJA = 227.3°C/W).
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Analog power supply | Accepts 2.7–26 V; powers internal amplifier and reference buffer; requires 0.01–0.1 µF bypass capacitor close to pin |
| GND | Analog ground reference | Return path for supply and signal; must be connected to low-impedance system ground plane to minimize noise coupling |
| IN+ | Non-inverting input | Connects to supply-side of shunt resistor; high-impedance node (28 µA max bias current); routing must minimize trace inductance |
| IN− | Inverting input | Connects to load-side of shunt resistor; matched to IN+ for CMRR; same layout sensitivity as IN+ |
| REF | Reference voltage input | Sets output common-mode level (0 V to V+); unbuffered - requires low-impedance source or op-amp buffer if derived from divider |
| OUT | Voltage output | Single-ended analog output (50 × VSENSE + VREF); drives ≥10 kΩ loads; swing limited to (V+) – 0.2 V and GND + 0.05 V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Zero-drift architecture | Enables stable 10-mV full-scale shunt sensing with <0.5 µV/°C offset drift - eliminates need for periodic null calibration in field-deployed equipment |
| Bidirectional current sensing | Supports both charge and discharge monitoring in battery management via polarity-sensitive output relative to REF |
| High CMRR (100 dB min) | Maintains accuracy despite noisy 24-V bus transients - critical for telecom rectifier modules sharing ground with digital control logic |
| SC70-6 footprint | Reduces PCB area by >50% vs SOIC-8 alternatives while retaining thermal performance for ≤100 mW dissipation |
| Version C grade | Guarantees ±0.5% gain error over temperature - simplifies production test limits and reduces BOM variants in high-volume power supplies |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar current-sense amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA213AIDCKT | Same SC70-6 package and 50 V/V gain, but Version A grade: ±1% gain error (vs. ±0.5% for INA213CIDCKT) and –0.3 V to 26 V common-mode range | Acceptable for cost-sensitive consumer power adapters where ±1% gain tolerance is sufficient and negative common-mode excursions may occur | Select INA213AIDCKT only if gain error budget allows ±1% and system common-mode never exceeds –0.1 V; otherwise INA213CIDCKT ensures tighter spec compliance. |
| INA214CIDCKT | Same Version C grade and SC70-6 package, but 100 V/V gain; identical offset (±60 µV), bandwidth (30 kHz), and supply range | Better suited for 5-mV shunt drops or higher-resolution measurements; trades bandwidth for gain - not drop-in compatible due to different transfer function | Choose INA214CIDCKT when shunt voltage must be halved (e.g., 5-mV full-scale) and 30 kHz bandwidth suffices; avoid if 80 kHz transient response is required. |
Compared with INA213AIDCKT and INA214CIDCKT, the INA213CIDCKT uniquely balances 80 kHz bandwidth, ±0.5% gain accuracy, and 50 V/V scaling - making it optimal for high-dynamic-range, thermally demanding power monitoring where both speed and precision are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum common-mode voltage supported by the INA213CIDCKT?
The INA213CIDCKT 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 allows reliable high-side sensing on 24-V industrial buses and low-side sensing near ground, independent of its 2.7–26 V supply voltage. The –0.1 V lower limit means it cannot tolerate significant negative transients below ground without external clamping.
Does the INA213CIDCKT require an external reference voltage?
No - the INA213CIDCKT does not require an external reference voltage to operate, but the REF pin must be actively driven to a defined DC level (0 V to V+) to set the output common-mode voltage. Leaving REF floating causes undefined output behavior. For ratiometric measurements, connecting REF to mid-supply (e.g., V+/2) is typical; for ground-referenced outputs, tie REF to GND.
Can the INA213CIDCKT measure bidirectional current?
Yes - the INA213CIDCKT supports true bidirectional current sensing. When the shunt voltage polarity reverses (IN+ < IN−), the output voltage drops below the REF voltage by an amount proportional to the reverse current. With REF biased at mid-supply (e.g., 2.5 V), output swings symmetrically around that point - enabling detection of charge/discharge direction in battery applications.
What is the purpose of the 20-kΩ internal resistor network in the INA213CIDCKT?
The 20-kΩ internal resistor network (R3/R4) defines the 50 V/V fixed gain of the INA213CIDCKT and establishes its input impedance characteristics. It enables precise gain matching and contributes to the device's 100 dB CMRR. External series resistance at IN+/IN− must stay ≤10 Ω to avoid introducing measurable gain error - as quantified in TI's Equation 1 for RINT = 20 kΩ.
Is the INA213CIDCKT pin-compatible with other INA21x variants in SC70-6?
Yes - all INA21x devices in the DCK (SC70-6) package share identical pinout and footprint, including INA210, INA211, INA212, INA213, INA214, and INA215. However, gain, bandwidth, offset, and gain error grade differ per variant; swapping requires verifying signal chain compatibility (e.g., 80 kHz BW of INA213CIDCKT vs. 4 kHz of INA212).
