INA20x Unidirectional Measurement Current-Shunt Monitor With Dual Comparators
1 Features
3 Description
•
•
The INA206, INA207, and INA208 are a family of
undirectional current-shunt monitors with voltage
output, dual comparators, and voltage reference. The
INA206, INA207, and INA208 can sense drops
across shunts at a common-mode voltages from –16
V to 80 V. The INA206, INA207, and INA208 are
available with three output voltage scales: 20 V/V, 50
V/V, and 100 V/V, with up to 500-kHz bandwidth.

Complete Current Sense Solution
Three Gain Options Available:
– INA206 = 20 V/V
– INA207 = 50 V/V
– INA208 = 100 V/V
Dual Comparators:
– Comparator 1 With Latch
– Comparator 2 With Optional Delay
Common-mode Range: –16 V to 80 V
High Accuracy: 3.5% (Maximum) Over
Temperature
Bandwidth: 500 kHz
Quiescent Current: 1.8 mA
Packages: SO-14, TSSOP-14, VSSOP-10
The INA206, INA207, and INA208 also incorporates
two open-drain comparators with internal 0.6-V
references. On 14-pin versions, the comparator
references can be overridden by external inputs.
Comparator 1 includes a latching capability, and
Comparator 2 has a user-programmable delay on 14pin versions. The 14-pin versions also provide a 1.2 V
reference output.
The INA206, INA207, and INA208 operate from a
single 2.7-V to 18-V supply. They are specified over
the extended operating temperature range of –40°C
to 125°C.

Hysteresis refers to the threshold (the threshold specification applies to a rising edge of a noninverting input) of a falling edge on the
noninverting input of the comparator. See Figure 1.
Specified by design.
The comparator response time specified is the interval between the input step function and the instant when the output crosses 1.4 V.
RESET input has an internal 2 MΩ (typical) pull-down. Leaving RESET open results in a LOW state, with transparent comparator
operation.

The INA206, INA207, and INA208 are designed to power-up with the comparator in a defined reset state as long as CMP1 RESET is
open or grounded. The comparator will be in reset as long as the power supply is below the voltage shown here. The comparator will
assume a state based on the comparator input above this supply voltage. If CMP1 RESET is high at power-up, the comparator output
comes up high and requires a reset to assume a low state, if appropriate.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The INA206, INA207, and INA208 are a family of unidirectional current-shunt monitors with voltage output, dual
comparators, and voltage reference. The INA206, INA207, and INA208 can sense drops across shunts at
common-mode voltages from –16 V to 80 V. The INA206, INA207, and INA208 are available with three output
voltage scales: 20 V/V, 50 V/V, and 100 V/V, with up to 500-kHz bandwidth. The INA206, INA207, and INA208
also incorporate two open-drain comparators with internal 0.6-V references. On 14-pin versions, the comparator
references can be overridden by external inputs. Comparator 1 includes a latching capability, and Comparator 2
has a user-programmable delay. 14-pin versions also provide a 1.2-V reference output. The INA206, INA207,
and INA208 operate from a single 2.7-V to 18-V supply. They are specified over the extended operating
temperature range of –40°C to 125°C

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Output Voltage Range
The output of the INA206, INA207, and INA208 is accurate within the output voltage swing range set by the
power supply pin, Vs. This performance is best illustrated when using the INA208 (a gain of 100 version), where
a 100-mV full-scale input from the shunt resistor requires an output voltage swing of 10 V, and a power-supply
voltage sufficient to achieve 10 V on the output.
8.3.2 Reference
The INA206, INA207, and INA208 include an internal voltage reference that has a load regulation of 0.4 mV/mA
(typical), and not more than 100 ppm/°C of drift. Only the 14-pin package allows external access to reference
voltages, where voltages of 1.2 V and 0.6 V are both available. Output current versus output voltage is illustrated
in Typical Characteristics.
8.3.3 Comparator
The INA206, INA207, and INA208 devices incorporate two open-drain comparators. These comparators typically
have 2 mV of offset and a 1.3-µs (typical) response time. The output of Comparator 1 latches and is reset
through the CMP1 RESET pin, as shown in Figure 31. This configuration applies to both the 10- and 14-pin
versions. Figure 30 illustrates the comparator delay.
The 14-pin versions of the INA206, INA207, and INA208 include additional features for comparator functions.
The comparator reference voltage of both Comparator 1 and Comparator 2 can be overridden by external inputs
for increased design flexibility. Comparator 2 has a programmable delay.

A simplified version of the delay circuit for Comparator 2 is shown in Figure 30. The delay comparator consists of
two comparator stages with the delay between them. Note that I1 and I2 cannot be turned on simultaneously; I1
corresponds to a U1 low output and I2 corresponds to a U1 high output. Using an initial assumption that the U1
output is low, I1 is on, then U2 +IN is zero. If U1 goes high, I2 supplies 120 nA to CDELAY. The voltage at U2 +IN
begins to ramp toward a 0.6-V threshold. When the voltage crosses this threshold, the U2 output goes high while
the voltage at U2 +IN continues to ramp up to a maximum of 1.2 V when given sufficient time (twice the value of
the delay specified for CDELAY). This entire sequence is reversed when the comparator outputs go low, so that
returning to low exhibits the same delay.

Feature Description (continued)
It is important to note what will happen if events occur more rapidly than the delay timeout; for example, when
the U1 output goes high (turning on I2), but returns low (turning I1 back on) prior to reaching the 0.6-V transition
for U2. The voltage at U2 +IN ramps back down at a rate determined by the value of CDELAY, and only returns to
zero if given sufficient time.
In essence, when analyzing Comparator 2 for behavior with events more rapid than its delay setting, use the
model shown in Figure 30.
8.3.5 Comparator Maximum Input Voltage Range
The maximum voltage at the comparator input for normal operation is up to (Vs) – 1.5 V. There are special
considerations when overdriving the reference inputs (pins 3 and 6). Driving either or both inputs high enough to
drive 1 mA back into the reference introduces errors into the reference. Figure 33 shows the basic input
structure. A general guideline is to limit the voltage on both inputs to a total of 20 V. The exact limit depends on
the available voltage and whether either or both inputs are subject to the large voltage. When making this
determination, consider the 20 kΩ from each input back to the comparator. Figure 34 shows the maximum input
voltage that avoids creating a reference error when driving both inputs (an equivalent resistance back into the
reference of 10 kΩ.

8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 Accuracy Variations as a Result of VSENSE and Common-Mode Voltage
The accuracy of the INA206, INA207, and INA208 current-shunt monitors is a function of two main variables:
VSENSE (VIN+ – VIN–) and common-mode voltage, VCM, relative to the supply voltage, VS. VCM is expressed as
(VIN+ + VIN–)/2; however, in practice, VCM is seen as the voltage at VIN+ because the voltage drop across VSENSE
is usually small.
This section addresses the accuracy of these specific operating regions:
• Normal Case 1: VSENSE ≥ 20 mV, VCM ≥ VS
• Normal Case 2: VSENSE ≥ 20 mV, VCM < VS
• Low VSENSE Case 1: VSENSE < 20 mV, –16 V ≤ VCM < 0
• Low VSENSE Case 2: VSENSE < 20 mV, 0 V ≤ VCM ≤ VS
• Low VSENSE Case 3: VSENSE < 20 mV, VS < VCM ≤ 80 V
8.4.1.1 Normal Case 1: VSENSE ≥ 20 mV, VCM ≥ VS
This region of operation provides the highest accuracy. Here, the input offset voltage is characterized and
measured using a two-step method. First, the gain is determined by Equation 2.
- VOUT2
V
G = OUT1
100 mV - 20 mV
where
•
•
VOUT1 = Output Voltage with VSENSE = 100 mV
VOUT2 = Output Voltage with VSENSE = 20 mV
(2)
Then the offset voltage is measured at VSENSE = 100 mV and referred to the input (RTI) of the current-shunt
monitor, as shown in Equation 3
æV
ö
VOSRTI (Re ferred - To - Input) = ç OUT1 ÷ - 100 mV
è G ø
(3)
In the Typical Characteristics, the Output Error vs Common-Mode Voltage curve shows the highest accuracy for
this region of operation. In this plot, VS = 12 V; for VCM ≥ 12 V, the output error is at its minimum. This case is
also used to create the VSENSE ≥ 20-mV output specifications in Electrical Characteristics: Current-Shunt Monitor
through Electrical Characteristics: General.

Device Functional Modes (continued)
8.4.1.2 Normal Case 2: VSENSE ≥ 20 mV, VCM < VS
This region of operation has slightly less accuracy than Normal Case 1 as a result of the common-mode
operating area in which the part functions, as seen in the Output Error vs Common-mode Voltage curve. As
noted, for this graph VS = 12 V; for VCM < 12 V, the Output Error increases as VCM becomes less than 12 V, with
a typical maximum error of 0.005% at the most negative VCM = –16 V.
Low VSENSE Case 1:
VSENSE < 20 mV, –16 V ≤ VCM < 0; and
Low VSENSE Case 3:
VSENSE < 20 mV, VS < VCM ≤ 80 V
Although the INA206 family of devices are not designed for accurate operation in either of these regions, some
applications are exposed to these conditions; for example, when monitoring power supplies that are switched on
and off while VS is still applied to the INA206, INA207, or INA208. It is important to know what the behavior of the
devices will be in these regions.
As VSENSE approaches 0 mV, in these VCM regions, the device output accuracy degrades. A larger-than-normal
offset can appear at the currenrt-shunt monitor output with a typical maximum value of VOUT = 300 mV for VSENSE
= 0 mV. As VSENSE approaches 20 mV, VOUT Returns to the expected output value with accuracy as specified in
Electrical Characteristics: Current-Shunt Monitor through Electrical Characteristics: General. Figure 38 illustrates
this effect using the INA208 (Gain = 100).

voltage range, these devices use two op amp front ends in parallel. One op amp front end operates in the
positive input common-mode voltage range, and the other in the negative input region. For this case, neither of
these two internal amplifiers dominates and overall loop gain is very low. Within this region, VOUT approaches
voltages close to linear operation levels for Normal Case 2. This deviation from linear operation becomes
greatest the closer VSENSE approaches 0 V. Within this region, as VSENSE approaches 20 mV, device operation is
closer o that described by Normal Case 2. Figure 39 illustrates this behavior for the INA208. The VOUT maximum
peak for this case is tested by maintaining a constant VS, setting VSENSE = 0 mV and sweeping VCM from 0 V to
VS. The exact VCM at which VOUT peaks during this test varies from part to part, but the VOUT maximum peak is
tested to be less than the specified VOUT Tested Limit.

9 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.
9.1 Application Information
9.1.1 Basic Connection
Figure 40 shows the basic connection of the INA206, INA207, and INA208. The input pins, VIN+ and VIN–,
should be connected as closely as possible to the shunt resistor to minimize any resistance in series with the
shunt resistance.
Power-supply bypass capacitors are required for stability. Applications with noisy or high impedance power
supplies may require additional decoupling capacitors to reject power-supply noise. Connect bypass capacitors
close to the device pins.

Typical Application (continued)
9.2.1 Design Requirements
The device measures current through a resistive shunt with current flowing in one direction. The outputs of the
two comparators are in logic AND connection thus enabling the window comparison. When the INA output
voltage is within the upper and lower limits, the composite comparator output is high. When the INA output
voltage is above the upper limit or below the lower limit, the composite comparator output remains low.
9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
9.2.2.1 Selecting RS
The value chosen for the shunt resistor, RS, depends on the application and is a compromise between smallsignal accuracy and maximum permissible voltage loss in the measurement line. High values of RS provide better
accuracy at lower currents by minimizing the effects of offset, while low values of RS minimize voltage loss in the
supply line. For most applications, best performance is attained with an RS value that provides a full-scale shunt
voltage range of 50 mV to 100 mV. Maximum input voltage for accurate measurements is (VS – 0.2) / Gain.
9.2.2.2 Transient Protection
The –16-V to 80-V common-mode range of the INA206, INA207, and INA208 is ideal for withstanding automotive
fault conditions ranging from 12-V battery reversal up to 80-V transients, since no additional protective
components are needed up to those levels. In the event that the INA206, INA207, and INA208 are exposed to
transients on the inputs in excess of their ratings, then external transient absorption with semiconductor transient
absorbers (Zeners or Transzorbs) will be necessary. Use of MOVs or VDRs is not recommended except when
they are used in addition to a semiconductor transient absorber. Select the transient absorber such that it will
never allow the INA206, INA207, and INA208 to be exposed to transients greater than 80 V (that is, allow for
transient absorber tolerance, as well as additional voltage due to transient absorber dynamic impedance).
Despite the use of internal Zener-type ESD protection, the INA206, INA207, and INA208 do not lend themselves
to using external resistors in series with the inputs since the internal gain resistors can vary up to ±30% but are
closely matched. (If gain accuracy is not important, then resistors can be added in series with the INA206,
INA207, and INA208 inputs with two equal resistors on each input.)
9.2.2.3 Input Filtering
An obvious and straightforward location for filtering is at the output of the INA206, INA207, and INA208 series;
however, this location negates the advantage of the low output impedance of the internal buffer. The only other
option for filtering is at the input pins of the INA206, INA207, and INA208, which is complicated by the internal 5
kΩ + 30% input impedance; this is shown in Figure 42. Using the lowest possible resistor values minimizes both
the initial shift in gain and effects of tolerance. The effect on initial gain is given by Equation 4.

Total effect on gain error can be calculated by replacing the 5-kΩ term with 5 kΩ – 30%, (or 3.5 kΩ) or 5 kΩ +
30%, (or 6.5 kΩ). The tolerance extremes of RFILT can also be inserted into the equation. If a pair of 100 Ω 1%
resistors are used on the inputs, the initial gain error will be 1.96%. Worst-case tolerance conditions will always
occur at the lower excursion of the internal 5-kΩ resistor (3.5 kΩ), and the higher excursion of RFILT– 2.8% in this
case.
