SBOS863D – MARCH 2018 – REVISED NOVEMBER 2019
INA190 Bidirectional, Low-Power, Zero-Drift, Wide Dynamic Range,
Precision Current-Sense Amplifier With Enable
1 Features
3 Description
•
The INA190 is a low-power, voltage-output, currentshunt monitor (also called a current-sense amplifier).
This device is commonly used for overcurrent
protection, precision current measurement for system
optimization, or in closed-loop feedback circuits. The
INA190 can sense drops across shunts at commonmode voltages from –0.2 V to +40 V, independent of
the supply voltage.

Low input bias currents: 500 pA (typ)
(enables microamp current measurement)
Low power:
– Low supply voltage, VS: 1.7 V to 5.5 V
– Low shutdown current: 100 nA (max)
– Low quiescent current: 50 μA at 25°C (typ)
Accuracy:
– Common-mode rejection ratio: 132 dB (min)
– Gain error: ±0.2% (A1 device)
– Gain drift: 7 ppm/°C (max)
– Offset voltage, VOS: ±15 μV (max)
– Offset drift: 80 nV/°C (max)
Wide common-mode voltage: –0.2 V to +40 V
Bidirectional current sensing capability
Gain options:
– INA190A1: 25 V/V
– INA190A2: 50 V/V
– INA190A3: 100 V/V
– INA190A4: 200 V/V
– INA190A5: 500 V/V
The low input bias current of the device permits the
use of larger current-sense resistors, thus providing
accurate current measurements in the microamp
range. The low offset voltage of the zero-drift
architecture extends the dynamic range of the current
measurement. This feature allows for smaller sense
resistors with lower power loss, while still providing
accurate current measurements.
The INA190 operates from a single 1.7-V to 5.5-V
power supply, and draws a maximum of 65 µA of
supply current when enabled; only 0.1 µA when
disabled. Five fixed gain options are available: 25
V/V, 50 V/V, 100 V/V, 200 V/V, or 500 V/V. The
device is specified over the operating temperature
range of –40°C to +125°C, and offered in UQFN,
SC70, and SOT-23 packages.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The INA190 is a low bias current, low offset, 40-V common-mode, current-sensing amplifier. The DDF SOT-23
and RSW UQFN packages also feature an enable pin. The INA190 is a specially designed, current-sensing
amplifier that accurately measures voltages developed across current-sensing resistors on common-mode
voltages that far exceed the supply voltage. Current is measured on input voltage rails as high as 40 V at VIN+
and VIN–, with a supply voltage, VS, as low as 1.7 V. When disabled, the output goes to a high-impedance state,
and the supply current draw is reduced to less than 0.1 µA. The INA190 is intended for use in both low-side and
high-side current-sensing configurations where high accuracy and low current consumption are required.

7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 Precision Current Measurement
The INA190 allows for accurate current measurements over a wide dynamic range. The high accuracy of the
device is attributable to the low gain error and offset specifications. The offset voltage of the INA190 is less than
15 µV. In this case, the low offset improves the accuracy at light loads when VIN+ approaches VIN–. Another
advantage of low offset is the ability to use a lower-value shunt resistor that reduces the power loss in the
current-sense circuit, and improves the power efficiency of the end application.
The maximum gain error of the INA190 is specified between 0.2% and 0.4% of the actual value, depending on
the gain option. As the sensed voltage becomes much larger than the offset voltage, the gain error becomes the
dominant source of error in the current-sense measurement. When the device monitors currents near the fullscale output range, the total measurement error approaches the value of the gain error.
7.3.2 Low Input Bias Current
The INA190 is different from many current-sense amplifiers because this device offers very low input bias
current. The low input bias current of the INA190 has three primary benefits.
The first benefit is the reduction of the current consumed by the device in both the enabled and disabled states.
Classical current-sense amplifier topologies typically consume tens of microamps of current at the inputs. For
these amplifiers, the input current is the result of the resistor network that sets the gain and additional current to
bias the input amplifier. To reduce the bias current to near zero, the INA190 uses a capacitively coupled amplifier
on the input stage, followed by a difference amplifier on the output stage.
The second benefit of low bias current is the ability to use input filters to reject high-frequency noise before the
signal is amplified. In a traditional current-sense amplifier, the addition of input filters comes at the cost of
reduced accuracy. However, as a result of the low bias currents, input filters have little effect on the
measurement accuracy of the INA190.
The third benefit of low bias current is the ability to use a larger current-sense resistor. This ability allows the
device to accurately monitor currents as low as 1 µA.
7.3.3 Low Quiescent Current With Output Enable
The device features low quiescent current (IQ), while still providing sufficient small-signal bandwidth to be usable
in most applications. The quiescent current of the INA190 is only 48 µA (typ), while providing a small-signal
bandwidth of 35 kHz in a gain of 100. The low IQ and good bandwidth allow the device to be used in many
portable electronic systems without excessive drain on the battery. Because many applications only need to
periodically monitor current, the INA190 features an enable pin that turns off the device until needed. When in
the disabled state, the INA190 typically draws 10 nA of total supply current.
7.3.4 Bidirectional Current Monitoring
INA190 devices can sense current flow through a sense resistor in both directions. The bidirectional currentsensing capability is achieved by applying a voltage at the REF pin to offset the output voltage. A positive
differential voltage sensed at the inputs results in an output voltage that is greater than the applied reference
voltage. Likewise, a negative differential voltage at the inputs results in output voltage that is less than the
applied reference voltage. The output voltage of the current-sense amplifier is shown in Equation 1.

Feature Description (continued)
7.3.5 High-Side and Low-Side Current Sensing
The INA190 supports input common-mode voltages from –0.2 V to +40 V. Because of the internal topology, the
common-mode range is not restricted by the power-supply voltage (VS). The ability to operate with commonmode voltages greater or less than VS allows the INA190 to be used in high-side and low-side current-sensing
applications, as shown in Figure 34.

7.3.6 High Common-Mode Rejection
The INA190 uses a capacitively coupled amplifier on the front end. Therefore, dc common-mode voltages are
blocked from downstream circuits, resulting in very high common-mode rejection. Typically, the common-mode
rejection of the INA190 is approximately 150 dB. The ability to reject changes in the dc common-mode voltage
allows the INA190 to monitor both high- and low-voltage rail currents with very little change in the offset voltage.
7.3.7 Rail-to-Rail Output Swing
The INA190 allows linear current-sensing operation with the output close to the supply rail and ground. The
maximum specified output swing to the positive rail is VS – 40 mV, and the maximum specified output swing to
GND is only GND + 1 mV. The close-to-rail output swing is useful to maximize the usable output range,
particularly when operating the device from a 1.8-V supply.

7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Normal Operation
The INA190 is in normal operation when the following conditions are met:
• The power-supply voltage (VS) is between 1.7 V and 5.5 V.
• The common-mode voltage (VCM) is within the specified range of –0.2 V to +40 V.
• The maximum differential input signal times the gain plus VREF is less than the positive swing voltage VSP.
• The ENABLE pin is driven or connected to VS.
• The minimum differential input signal times the gain plus VREF is greater than the zero load swing to GND, VZL
(see the Rail-to-Rail Output Swing section).
During normal operation, this device produces an output voltage that is the amplified representation of the
difference voltage from IN+ to IN– plus the voltage applied to the REF pin.
7.4.2 Unidirectional Mode
This device can be configured to monitor current flowing in one direction (unidirectional) or in both directions
(bidirectional) depending on how the REF pin is connected. The most common case is unidirectional where the
output is set to ground when no current is flowing by connecting the REF pin to ground, as shown in Figure 35.
When the current flows from the bus supply to the load, the input voltage from IN+ to IN– increases and causes
the output voltage at the OUT pin to increase.

Figure 35. Typical Unidirectional Application
The linear range of the output stage is limited by how close the output voltage can approach ground under zero
input conditions. The zero current output voltage of the INA190 is very small and for most unidirectional
applications the REF pin is simply grounded. However, if the measured current multiplied by the current sense
resistor and device gain is less than the zero current output voltage then bias the REF pin to a convenient value
above the zero current output voltage to get the output into the linear range of the device. To limit common-mode
rejection errors, buffer the reference voltage connected to the REF pin.
A less-frequently used output biasing method is to connect the REF pin to the power-supply voltage, VS. This
method results in the output voltage saturating at 40 mV less than the supply voltage when no differential input
voltage is present. This method is similar to the output saturated low condition with no differential input voltage
when the REF pin is connected to ground. The output voltage in this configuration only responds to currents that
develop negative differential input voltage relative to the device IN– pin. Under these conditions, when the
negative differential input signal increases, the output voltage moves downward from the saturated supply
voltage. The voltage applied to the REF pin must not exceed VS.

Device Functional Modes (continued)
Another use for the REF pin in unidirectional operation is to level shift the output voltage. Figure 36 shows an
application where the device ground is set to a negative voltage so currents biased to negative supplies, as seen
in optical networking cards, can be measured. The GND of the INA190 can be set to negative voltages, as long
as the inputs do not violate the common-mode range specification and the voltage difference between VS and
GND does not exceed 5.5 V. In this example, the output of the INA190 is fed into a positive-biased ADC. By
grounding the REF pin, the voltages at the output will be positive and not damage the ADC. To make sure the
output voltage never goes negative, the supply sequencing must be the positive supply first, followed by the
negative supply.

7.4.3 Bidirectional Mode
The INA190 devices are bidirectional current-sense amplifiers capable of measuring currents through a resistive
shunt in two directions. This bidirectional monitoring is common in applications that include charging and
discharging operations where the current flowing through the resistor can change directions.

Figure 37. Bidirectional Application
The ability to measure this current flowing in both directions is achieved by applying a voltage to the REF pin, as
shown in Figure 37. The voltage applied to REF (VREF) sets the output state that corresponds to the zero-input
level state. The output then responds by increasing above VREF for positive differential signals (relative to the IN–
pin) and responds by decreasing below VREF for negative differential signals. This reference voltage applied to
the REF pin can be set anywhere between 0 V to VS. For bidirectional applications, VREF is typically set at VS/2
for equal signal range in both current directions. In some cases, VREF is set at a voltage other than VS/2; for
example, when the bidirectional current and corresponding output signal do not need to be symmetrical.
7.4.4 Input Differential Overload
If the differential input voltage (VIN+ – VIN–) times gain exceeds the voltage swing specification, the INA190 drives
its output as close as possible to the positive supply or ground, and does not provide accurate measurement of
the differential input voltage. If this input overload occurs during normal circuit operation, then reduce the value of
the shunt resistor or use a lower-gain version with the chosen sense resistor to avoid this mode of operation. If a
differential overload occurs in a time-limited fault event, then the output of the INA190 returns to the expected
value approximately 80 µs after the fault condition is removed.

Device Functional Modes (continued)
7.4.5 Shutdown
The INA190 features an active-high ENABLE pin that shuts down the device when pulled to ground. When the
device is shut down, the quiescent current is reduced to 10 nA (typ), and the output goes to a high-impedance
state. In a battery-powered application, the low quiescent current extends the battery lifetime when the current
measurement is not needed. When the ENABLE pin is driven to the supply voltage, the device turns back on.
The typical output settling time when enabled is 130 µs.
The output of the INA190 goes to a high-impedance state when disabled. Therefore, you can connect multiple
outputs of the INA190 together to a single ADC or measurement device, as shown in Figure 38.
When connected in this way, enable only one INA190 at a time, and make sure all devices have the same supply
voltage.

8 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The INA190 amplifies the voltage developed across a current-sensing resistor as current flows through the
resistor to the load or ground. The high common-mode rejection of the INA190 make it usable over a wide range
of voltage rails while still maintaining an accurate current measurement.
8.1.1 Basic Connections
Figure 39 shows the basic connections of the INA190. Place the device as close as possible to the current sense
resistor and connect the input pins (IN+ and IN–) to the current sense resistor through kelvin connections.If
present, the ENABLE pin must be controlled externally or connected to VS if not used.

8.1.2 RSENSE and Device Gain Selection
The accuracy of any current-sense amplifier is maximized by choosing the current-sense resistor to be as large
as possible. A large sense resistor maximizes the differential input signal for a given amount of current flow and
reduces the error contribution of the offset voltage. However, there are practical limits as to how large the
current-sense resistor can be in a given application because of the resistor size and maximum allowable power
dissipation. Equation 2 gives the maximum value for the current-sense resistor for a given power dissipation
budget:
PDMAX
RSENSE
IMAX2
where:
•
•
PDMAX is the maximum allowable power dissipation in RSENSE.
IMAX is the maximum current that will flow through RSENSE.
(2)
An additional limitation on the size of the current-sense resistor and device gain is due to the power-supply
voltage, VS, and device swing-to-rail limitations. In order to make sure that the current-sense signal is properly
passed to the output, both positive and negative output swing limitations must be examined. Equation 3 provides
the maximum values of RSENSE and GAIN to keep the device from exceeding the positive swing limitation.
IMAX u RSENSE u GAIN < VSP VREF
where:
•
•
•
•
IMAX is the maximum current that will flow through RSENSE.
GAIN is the gain of the current-sense amplifier.
VSP is the positive output swing as specified in the data sheet.
VREF is the externally applied voltage on the REF pin.
(3)
To avoid positive output swing limitations when selecting the value of RSENSE, there is always a trade-off between
the value of the sense resistor and the gain of the device under consideration. If the sense resistor selected for
the maximum power dissipation is too large, then it is possible to select a lower-gain device in order to avoid
positive swing limitations.
The negative swing limitation places a limit on how small the sense resistor value can be for a given application.
Equation 4 provides the limit on the minimum value of the sense resistor.
IMIN u RSENSE u GAIN > VSN VREF
where:
•
•
•
•
IMIN is the minimum current that will flow through RSENSE.
GAIN is the gain of the current-sense amplifier.
VSN is the negative output swing of the device (see Rail-to-Rail Output Swing).
VREF is the externally applied voltage on the REF pin.
(4)
In addition to adjusting RSENSE and the device gain, the voltage applied to the REF pin can be slightly increased
above GND to avoid negative swing limitations.

8.1.3 Signal Conditioning
When performing accurate current measurements in noisy environments, the current-sensing signal is often
filtered. The INA190 features low input bias currents. Therefore, adding a differential mode filter to the input
without sacrificing the current-sense accuracy is possible. Filtering at the input is advantageous because this
action attenuates differential noise before the signal is amplified. Figure 40 provides an example of how to use a

Application Information (continued)
As the voltage drop across the sense resistor (VSENSE) increases, the amount of voltage dropped across the input
filter resistors (RF) also increases. The increased voltage drop results in additional gain error. The error caused
by these resistors is calculated by the resistor divider equation shown in Equation 5.

RDIFF is the differential input impedance.
RF is the added value of the series filter resistance.

The input stage of the INA190 uses a capacitive feedback amplifier topology in order to achieve high dc
precision. As a result, periodic high-frequency shunt voltage (or current) transients of significant amplitude (10
mV or greater) and duration (hundreds of nanoseconds or greater) may be amplified by the INA190, even though
the transients are greater than the device bandwidth. Use a differential input filter in these applications to
minimize disturbances at the INA190 output.
The high input impedance and low bias current of the INA190 provide flexibility in the input filter design without
impacting the accuracy of current measurement. For example, set RF = 100 Ω and CF = 22 nF to achieve a lowpass filter corner frequency of 36.2 kHz. These filter values significantly attenuate most unwanted high-frequency
signals at the input without severely impacting the current sensing bandwidth or precision. If a lower corner
frequency is desired, increase the value of CF.
Filtering the input filters out differential noise across the sense resistor. If high-frequency, common-mode noise is
a concern, add an RC filter from the OUT pin to ground. The RC filter helps filter out both differential and
common mode noise, as well as, internally generated noise from the device. The value for the resistance of the
RC filter is limited by the impedance of the load. Any current drawn by the load manifests as an external voltage
drop from the INA190 OUT pin to the load input. To select the optimal values for the output filter, use Figure 33
and see the Closed-Loop Analysis of Load-Induced Amplifier Stability Issues Using ZOUT application report

Application Information (continued)
8.1.4 Common-Mode Voltage Transients
With a small amount of additional circuitry, the INA190 can be used in circuits subject to transients that exceed
the absolute maximum voltage ratings. The most simple way to protect the inputs from negative transients is to
add resistors in series to the IN– and IN+ pins. Use resistors that are 1 kΩ or less, and limit the current in the
ESD structures to less than 5 mA. For example, using 1-kΩ resistors in series with the INA190 allows voltages
as low as –5 V, while limiting the ESD current to less than 5 mA. If protection from high-voltage or morenegative, common-voltage transients is needed, use the circuits shown in Figure 42 and Figure 43. When
implementing these circuits, use only Zener diodes or Zener-type transient absorbers (sometimes referred to as
transzorbs); any other type of transient absorber has an unacceptable time delay. Start by adding a pair of
resistors as a working impedance for the Zener diode, as shown in Figure 42. Keep these resistors as small as
possible; most often, use around 100 Ω. Larger values can be used with an effect on gain that is discussed in the
Signal Conditioning section. This circuit limits only short-term transients; therefore, many applications are
satisfied with a 100-Ω resistor along with conventional Zener diodes of the lowest acceptable power rating. This
combination uses the least amount of board space. These diodes can be found in packages as small as SOT523 or SOD-523.

Figure 42. Transient Protection Using Dual Zener Diodes
In the event that low-power Zener diodes do not have sufficient transient absorption capability, a higher-power
transzorb must be used. The most package-efficient solution involves using a single transzorb and back-to-back
diodes between the device inputs, as shown in Figure 43. The most space-efficient solutions are dual, seriesconnected diodes in a single SOT-523 or SOD-523 package. In either of the examples shown in Figure 42 and
Figure 43, the total board area required by the INA190 with all protective components is less than that of an SO8 package, and only slightly greater than that of an VSSOP-8 package.

8.2 Typical Applications
The low input bias current of the INA190 allows accurate monitoring of small-value currents. To accurately
monitor currents in the microamp range, increase the value of the sense resistor to increase the sense voltage
so that the error introduced by the offset voltage is small. The circuit configuration for monitoring low-value
currents is shown in Figure 44. As a result of the differential input impedance of the INA190, limit the value of
RSENSE to 1 kΩ or less for best accuracy.

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The maximum value of the current-sense resistor is calculated based choice of gain, value of the maximum
current the be sensed (IMAX), and the power supply voltage(VS). When operating at the maximum current, the
output voltage must not exceed the positive output swing specification, VSP. Using Equation 6, for the given
design parameters the maximum value for RSENSE is calculated to be 1.321 kΩ.
VSP
RSENSE <
IMAX u GAIN
(6)
However, because this value exceeds the maximum recommended value for RSENSE, a resistance value of 1 kΩ
must be used. When operating at the minimum current value, IMIN the output voltage must be greater than the
swing to GND (VSN), specification. For this example, the output voltage at the minimum current is calculated
using Equation 7 to be 25 mV, which is greater than the value for VSN.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The input circuitry of the INA190 accurately measures beyond the power-supply voltage, VS. For example, VS
can be 5 V, whereas the bus supply voltage at IN+ and IN– can be as high as 40 V. However, the output voltage
range of the OUT pin is limited by the voltage on the VS pin. The INA190 also withstands the full differential input
signal range up to 40 V at the IN+ and IN– input pins, regardless of whether the device has power applied at the
VS pin. There is no sequencing requirement for VS and VIN+ or VIN–.

10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
•
•
•
Connect the input pins to the sensing resistor using a Kelvin or 4-wire connection. This connection technique
makes sure that only the current-sensing resistor impedance is detected between the input pins. Poor routing
of the current-sensing resistor commonly results in additional resistance present between the input pins.
Given the very low ohmic value of the current resistor, any additional high-current carrying impedance can
cause significant measurement errors.
Place the power-supply bypass capacitor as close as possible to the device power supply and ground pins.
The recommended value of this bypass capacitor is 0.1 µF. Additional decoupling capacitance can be added
to compensate for noisy or high-impedance power supplies.
When routing the connections from the current-sense resistor to the device, keep the trace lengths as short
as possible. The input filter capacitor CF should be placed as close as possible to the input pins of the device.
