Product details
Overview
INA271SKGD1 from Texas Instruments is a high-temperature voltage-output current-shunt monitor with –16V to +80V common-mode input range, 20V/V fixed gain, and 130kHz bandwidth. It operates from +2.7V to +18V supply, draws ≤1600μA quiescent current, and is rated for –55°C to +210°C junction temperature. It enables unidirectional current sensing in down-hole drilling and extreme-environment power systems.
For engineers reviewing the INA271SKGD1 datasheet, INA271SKGD1 pinout, INA271SKGD1 application, or INA271SKGD1 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated package mapping, confirmed pin functions, real-world application constraints, and two rigorously cross-checked alternative parts for high-temperature current monitoring designs.
Technical Context
The INA271SKGD1 implements a dual-op-amp front-end architecture to sustain operation across –16V to +80V common-mode voltages independent of supply rail. Its 20V/V transfer function is realized via laser-trimmed internal resistors, with ±7.5% total gain error over temperature and ±10mV max offset referred-to-input.
It features a buffered output stage (BUF IN → OUT) and a preamplifier output (PRE OUT) with 96kΩ impedance, enabling direct single-pole RC filtering. The device lacks a shutdown pin but supports external power gating via logic-controlled V+ switching due to its sub-1mA quiescent draw.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Common-Mode Range | –16V to +80V: Enables sensing across shunts referenced to voltages far beyond supply rail (e.g., 80V battery bus with 5V supply). |
| Output Gain | 20V/V fixed: Converts 100mV shunt drop to 2.0V output-simplifies ADC interfacing without external scaling. |
| Bandwidth | 130kHz: Supports fast current-loop control in motor drives and switched-mode power supplies. |
| Offset Voltage | ±10mV max (RTI): Introduces ≤±0.5% full-scale error at 2V output; critical for low-current precision measurement. |
| Quiescent Current | 1600μA max: Allows operation from low-power rails while maintaining full performance at +210°C junction. |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to +210°C (junction): Validated for down-hole, aerospace, and industrial thermal cycling applications. |
| CMRR | 78dB min: Rejects noise coupled equally to IN+ and IN− in high-noise environments like motor controllers. |
Pinout & Package
XCEPT (KGD) bare die package - no leadframe or molded body; intended for hybrid microcircuit assembly or die bonding into custom ceramic/metal packages. Die dimensions: 762.3 μm × 1278 μm × 11 mils thick, silicon backside with Al-Cu metallization.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN+ | Positive current-sense input | Connects directly to high-side of shunt resistor; withstands –16V to +80V common-mode under all conditions. |
| IN− | Negative current-sense input | Connects to low-side of shunt; differential input pair rejects common-mode noise up to 78dB. |
| GND | Analog ground reference | Die substrate connection; must be tied to system ground plane with minimal inductance for stability. |
| PRE OUT | Preamplifier output | 96kΩ output impedance enables RC filter insertion before buffer stage; supports Sallen-Key configurations. |
| BUF IN | Buffer input | Accepts filtered signal from PRE OUT; internal 2× gain stage drives low-impedance OUT pin. |
| OUT | Final buffered output | Low-impedance (1.5Ω), rail-to-rail capable output delivering 20V/V total gain; drives 10kΩ loads. |
| V+ | Positive supply | +2.7V to +18V single supply; bypassing with 0.01μF + 0.1μF ceramics required for stability at high temperature. |
| NC | No internal connection | Die pad physically present but unconnected; electrically floating-must not be biased or loaded. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Extended temperature operation | Validated for continuous operation at +210°C junction temperature-supports down-hole drilling electronics. |
| High common-mode rejection | 78dB CMRR ensures accurate current measurement despite large shared noise on power bus and shunt. |
| Integrated filtering interface | PRE OUT + BUF IN architecture allows passive RC or active Sallen-Key filtering without external op amps. |
| Robust transient tolerance | Withstands automotive-grade transients (e.g., 12V reverse battery, +80V load dump) without external protection. |
| Controlled baseline manufacturing | TI's high-temp process includes one assembly/test site, traceable lot codes, and extended product-change notification. |

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature specification for the INA271SKGD1?
The INA271SKGD1 is specified for continuous operation at a maximum junction temperature of +210°C. This rating is validated per TI's high-temperature qualification standards-including extended life testing and electromigration derating-and applies to the bare die itself, not just the packaged variants. The INA271SKGD1 datasheet Figure 1 confirms 10-year operational life at 105°C junction, with derating curves extending to 210°C.
Does the INA271SKGD1 include an internal voltage reference?
No, the INA271SKGD1 does not contain an internal voltage reference. It is a ratiometric current-shunt monitor whose 20V/V gain is defined by internal laser-trimmed resistors, and its output scale depends solely on the shunt voltage and fixed gain-not on any reference voltage. Output accuracy is therefore independent of supply voltage variation within the +2.7V to +18V operating range.
Can the INA271SKGD1 measure bidirectional current flow?
No, the INA271SKGD1 is explicitly a unidirectional current-shunt monitor. Its architecture and transfer function (20V/V) produce positive-only output voltage proportional to current flowing from IN+ to IN−. It cannot resolve polarity reversal or negative shunt voltage drops. For bidirectional sensing, TI recommends the INA282 or INA293 families, which feature symmetric output swing and zero-centered transfer functions.
What is the purpose of the NC pin on the INA271SKGD1 bare die?
The NC pin on the INA271SKGD1 bare die is a physical bond pad with no internal electrical connection. Per TI's SBOS521D datasheet pin configuration diagrams and Table 1, pad #7 is labeled "NC" and has no circuit linkage. It must remain electrically floating-no biasing, grounding, or loading-and serves only mechanical alignment or thermal dissipation roles in hybrid assembly.
How does the PRE OUT pin enable filtering in the INA271SKGD1?
The PRE OUT pin provides access to the preamplifier stage output at 96kΩ impedance, allowing passive RC or active Sallen-Key filtering before the internal 2× buffer stage. Because PRE OUT drives BUF IN, inserting a capacitor between them forms a single-pole low-pass filter with cutoff frequency fc = 1/(2π × 96kΩ × C). This avoids loading the high-gain front end while preserving bandwidth control-critical for noise suppression in motor drive or switching power supply applications.
