INA225-Q1 AEC-Q100, 36-V, Bidirectional Current Sense Amplifier With Four PinSelectable Gain Settings
1 Features
3 Description
•
The INA225-Q1 is a voltage-output, current-sense
amplifier that senses drops across current-sensing
resistors at common-mode voltages that vary from 0
V to 36 V, independent of the supply voltage. The
device is a bidirectional, current-shunt monitor that
allows an external reference to be used to measure
current flowing in both directions across a currentsensing resistor.

Four discrete gain levels are selectable using the
two gain-select terminals (GS0 and GS1) to program
gains of 25 V/V, 50 V/V, 100 V/V, and 200 V/V. The
low-offset, zero-drift architecture and precision gain
values enable current-sensing with maximum drops
across the shunt as low as 10 mV of full-scale, while
maintaining very high accuracy measurements over
the entire operating temperature range.
The device operates from a single +2.7-V to +36V power supply, drawing a maximum of 350 μA
of supply current. The device is specified over the
extended operating temperature range of –40 °C to
+125 °C, and is offered in a VSSOP-8 package.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The INA225-Q1 is a 36-V, common-mode, zero-drift topology, current-sensing amplifier. This device features
a significantly higher signal bandwidth than most comparable precision, current-sensing amplifiers, reaching
up to 125 kHz at a gain of 100 V/V. A very useful feature present in the device is the built-in programmable
gain selection. To increase design flexibility with the device, a programmable gain feature is added that allows
changing device gain during operation in order to accurately monitor wider dynamic input signal ranges. Four
discrete gain levels (25 V/V, 50 V/V, 100 V/V, and 200 V/V) are available in the device and are selected using the
two gain-select terminals, GS0 and GS1.

7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 Selecting A Shunt Resistor
The device measures the differential voltage developed across a resistor when current flows through it. This
resistor is commonly referred to as a current-sensing resistor or a current-shunt resistor, with each term
commonly used interchangeably. The flexible design of the device allows a wide range of input signals to be
measured across this current-sensing resistor.
Selecting the value of this current-sensing resistor is based primarily on two factors: the required accuracy of the
current measurement and the allowable power dissipation across the resistor. The larger the voltage developed
across this resistor the more accurate of a measurement that can be made because of the fixed internal amplifier
errors. These fixed internal amplifier errors, which are dominated by the internal offset voltage of the device,
result in a larger measurement uncertainty when the input signal gets smaller. When the input signal gets larger,
the measurement uncertainty is reduced because the fixed errors become a smaller percentage of the signal
being measured.
A system design trade-off for improving the measurement accuracy through the use of the larger input signals
is the increase in the power dissipated across the current-sensing resistor. Increasing the value of the currentshunt resistor increases the differential voltage developed across the resistor when current passes through it.
However, the power that is then dissipated across this component also increases. Decreasing the value of

the current-shunt resistor value reduces the power dissipation requirements of the resistor, but increases the
measurement errors resulting from the decreasing input signal. Finding the optimal value for the shunt resistor
requires factoring both the accuracy requirement of the application and allowable power dissipation into the
selection of the component. An increasing amount of very low ohmic value resistors are becoming available with
values reaching down to 200 μΩ with power dissipations of up to 5 W, thus enabling very large currents to be
accurately monitored using sensing resistors.
The maximum value for the current-sensing resistor that can be chosen is based on the full-scale current to
be measured, the full-scale input range of the circuitry following the device, and the device gain selected.
The minimum value for the current-sensing resistor is typically a design-based decision because maximizing
the input range of the circuitry following the device is commonly preferred. Full-scale output signals that are
significantly less than the full input range of the circuitry following the device output can limit the ability of the
system to exercise the full dynamic range of system control based on the current measurement.
7.3.1.1 Selecting A Current-Sense Resistor Example
The example in Table 7-1 is based on a set of application characteristics, including a 10-A full-scale current
range and a 4-V full-scale output requirement. The calculations for selecting a current-sensing resistor of an
appropriate value are shown in Table 7-1.

7.3.1.2 Optimizing Power Dissipation versus Measurement Accuracy
The example shown in Table 7-1 results in a maximum current-sensing resistor value of 16 mΩ to develop the
160 mV required to achieve the 4-V full-scale output with the gain set to 25 V/V. The power dissipated across
this 16-mΩ resistor at the 10-A current level is 1.6 W, which is a fairly high power dissipation for this component.
Adjusting the device gain allows alternate current-sense resistor values to be selected to ease the power
dissipation requirement of this component.

SBOS728A – FEBRUARY 2015 – REVISED MARCH 2021
Changing the gain setting from 25 V/V to 100 V/V, as shown in Table 7-2, decreases the maximum differential
input voltage from 160 mV down to 40 mV, thus requiring only a 4-mΩ current-sensing resistor to achieve the
4-V output at the 10-A current level. The power dissipated across this resistor at the 10-A current level is
400 mW, significantly increasing the availability of component options to select from.
The increase in gain by a factor of four reduces the power dissipation requirement of the current-sensing resistor
by this same factor of four. However, with this smaller full-scale signal, the measurement uncertainty resulting
from the device fixed input offset voltage increases by the same factor of four. The measurement error resulting
from the device input offset voltage is approximately 0.1% at the 160-mV full-scale input signal for the 25-V/V
gain setting. Increasing the gain to 100 V/V and decreasing the full-scale input signal to 40 mV increases the
offset induced measurement error to 0.38%.

7.3.2 Programmable Gain Select
The device features a terminal-controlled gain selection in determining the device gain setting. Four discrete
gain options are available (25 V/V, 50 V/V, 100 V/V, and 200 V/V) on the device and are selected based on the
voltage levels applied to the gain-select terminals (GS0 and GS1). These terminals are typically fixed settings
for most applications but the programmable gain feature can be used to adjust the gain setting to enable wider
dynamic input range monitoring as well as to create an automatic gain control (AGC) network.

7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Input Filtering
An obvious and straightforward location for filtering is at the device output; however, this location negates the
advantage of the low output impedance of the internal buffer. The input then represents the best location for
implementing external filtering. Figure 7-1 shows the typical implementation of the input filter for the device.

Figure 7-1. Input Filter
Care must be taken in the selection of the external filter component values because these components can
affect device measurement accuracy. Placing external resistance in series with the input terminals creates an
additional error so these resistors should be kept as low of a value as possible with a recommended maximum
value of
10 Ω or less. Increasing the value of the input filter resistance beyond 10 Ω results in a smaller voltage signal
present at the device input terminals than what is developed across the current-sense shunt resistor.
The internal bias network shown in Figure 7-1 creates a mismatch in the two input bias current paths when a
differential voltage is applied between the input terminals. Under normal conditions, where no external resistance
is added to the input paths, this mismatch of input bias currents has little effect on device operation or accuracy.
However, when additional external resistance is added (such as for input filtering), the mismatch of input bias
currents creates unequal voltage drops across these external components. The mismatched voltages result
in a signal reaching the input terminals that is lower in value than the signal developed directly across the
current-sensing resistor.
The amount of variance in the differential voltage present at the device input relative to the voltage developed
at the shunt resistor is based both on the external series resistance value (RS) and the internal input resistors
(RINT = 25 kΩ). The reduction of the shunt voltage reaching the device input terminals appears as a gain error
when comparing the output voltage relative to the voltage across the shunt resistor. A factor can be calculated to
determine the amount of gain error that is introduced by the addition of external series resistance.

RINT is the internal input impedance, and
RS is the external series resistance.
For example, using the gain error factor (Equation 1), a 10-Ω series resistance results in a gain error factor
of 0.992. The corresponding gain error is then calculated using Equation 3, resulting in a gain error of
approximately 0.81% solely because of the external 10-Ω series resistors. Using 100-Ω filter resistors increases
this gain error to approximately 7.58% from these resistors alone.
Gain Error (%) = 1 ± Gain Error Factor

7.4.2 Shutting Down the Device
Although the device does not have a shutdown terminal, the low-power consumption allows for the device to be
powered from the output of a logic gate or transistor switch that can turn on and turn off the voltage connected to
the device power-supply terminal.
However, in current-shunt monitoring applications, there is also a concern for how much current is drained from
the shunt circuit in shutdown conditions. Evaluating this current drain involves considering the device simplified
schematic in shutdown mode, as shown in Figure 7-2.

of the 525-kΩ impedance from the shunt to ground is straightforward. However, if the reference or op amp
is powered while the device is shut down, the calculation is direct. Instead of assuming 525 kΩ to ground,
assume 525 kΩ to the reference voltage. If the reference or op amp is also shut down, some knowledge of the
reference or op amp output impedance under shutdown conditions is required. For instance, if the reference
source behaves similar to an open circuit when un-powered, little or no current flows through the 525-kΩ path.
7.4.3 Using the Device with Common-Mode Transients Above 36 V
With a small amount of additional circuitry, the device can be used in circuits subject to transients higher than
36 V (such as automotive applications). 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 shown in Figure 7-3, as a working impedance for the zener. Keeping these resistors
as small as possible is preferable, most often around 10 Ω. This value limits the impact on accuracy with
the addition of these external components, as described in the Input Filtering section. Larger values can be
used if necessary with the result having an impact on gain error. Because this circuit limits only short-term
transients, many applications are satisfied with a 10-Ω resistor along with conventional zener diodes of the
lowest power rating available. This combination uses the least amount of board space. These diodes can be
found in packages as small as SOT-523 or SOD-523.

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, as well as validating and testing their design
implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The INA225-Q1 measures the voltage developed across a current-sensing resistor when current passes through
it. The ability to drive the reference terminal to adjust the functionality of the output signal offers multiple
configurations discussed throughout this section.

In this application, the device gain setting is selected and controlled by the microcontroller to ensure the device
output is within the linear input range of the ADC. Because the output range of the device under a specific gain
setting approaches the linear output range of the INA225-Q1 itself or the linear input range of the ADC, the
microcontroller can adjust the device gain setting to ensure the signal remains within both the device and the
ADC linear signal range.

Figure 8-2 illustrates how the microcontroller can monitor the ADC measurements to determine if the device gain
setting should be adjusted to ensure the output of the device remains within the linear output range as well as
the linear input range of the ADC. When the output of the device rises to a level near the desired maximum
voltage level, the microcontroller can change the GPIO settings connected to the G0 and G1 gain-select
terminals to adjust the device gain setting, thus resulting in the output voltage dropping to a lower output range.
When the input current increases, the output voltage increases again to the desired maximum voltage level. The
microcontroller can again change the device gain setting to drop the output voltage back to a lower range.

The device can be configured to monitor current flowing in one direction or in both directions, depending on
how the REF terminal is configured. For measuring current in one direction, only the REF terminal is typically
connected to ground as shown in Figure 8-3. With the REF terminal connected to ground, the output is low
with no differential input signal applied. When the input signal increases, the output voltage at the OUT terminal
increases above ground based on the device gain setting.

8.2.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The linear range of the output stage is limited in how close the output voltage can approach ground under zero
input conditions. Resulting from an internal node limitation when the REF terminal is grounded (unidirectional
configuration) the device gain setting determines how close to ground the device output voltage can achieve
when no signal is applied; see Figure 6-14. To overcome this internal node limitation, a small reference voltage
(approximately 10 mV) can be applied to the REF terminal to bias the output voltage above this voltage level.
The device output swing capability returns to the 10-mV saturation level with this small reference voltage
present.
At the lowest gain setting, 25 V/V, the device is capable of accurately measuring input signals that result in
output voltages below this 10-mV saturation level of the output stage. For these gain settings, a reference
voltage can be applied to bias the output voltage above this lower saturation level to allow the device to monitor
these smaller input signals. To avoid common-mode rejection errors, buffer the reference voltage connected to
the REF terminal.
A less frequently-used output biasing method is to connect the REF terminal to the supply voltage, VS. This
method results in the output voltage saturating at 200 mV below the supply voltage when no differential input
signal is present. This method is similar to the output saturated low condition with no input signal when the
REF terminal is connected to ground. The output voltage in this configuration only responds to negative currents
that develop negative differential input voltage relative to the device IN– terminal. Under these conditions, when
the differential input signal increases negatively, the output voltage moves downward from the saturated supply
voltage. The voltage applied to the REF terminal must not exceed the device supply voltage.

An example output response of a unidirectional configuration is shown in Figure 8-4. With the REF terminal
connected directly to ground, the output voltage is biased to this zero output level. The output rises above the
reference voltage for positive differential input signals but cannot fall below the reference voltage for negative
differential input signals because of the grounded reference voltage.

8.2.3.1 Design Requirements
The device is a bidirectional, current-sense amplifier 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 flow-through resistor can change directions.
8.2.3.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The ability to measure this current flowing in both directions is enabled by applying a voltage to the REF
terminal, as shown in Figure 8-5. 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– terminal) and responds by decreasing below VREF for negative differential signals. This
reference voltage applied to the REF terminal can be set anywhere between 0 V to VS. For bidirectional
applications, VREF is typically set at mid-scale for equal range in both directions. In some cases, however, VREF
is set at a voltage other than half-scale when the bidirectional current is non-symmetrical.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The input circuitry of the device can accurately measure signals on common-mode voltages beyond its power
supply voltage, VS. For example, the voltage applied to the VS power supply terminal can be 5 V, whereas the
load power-supply voltage being monitored (the common-mode voltage) can be as high as +36 V. Note also that
the device can withstand the full –0.3-V to +36-V range at the input terminals, regardless of whether the device
has power applied or not.
Power-supply bypass capacitors are required for stability and should be placed as closely as possible to
the supply and ground terminals of the device. A typical value for this supply bypass capacitor is 0.1 μF.
Applications with noisy or high-impedance power supplies may require additional decoupling capacitors to reject
power-supply noise.

Connect the input terminals to the sensing resistor using a Kelvin or 4-wire connection. This connection
technique ensures that only the current-sensing resistor impedance is detected between the input terminals.
Poor routing of the current-sensing resistor commonly results in additional resistance present between the
input terminals. Given the very low ohmic value of the current resistor, any additional high-current carrying
impedance can cause significant measurement errors.
The power-supply bypass capacitor should be placed as closely as possible to the supply and ground
terminals. 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.
