Product Overview

The INA219 is a Texas Instruments Power_Management IC for bidirectional current and power monitoring. It measures shunt voltage and bus voltage, with a bus voltage sense range of 0 to 26 V and selectable bus-voltage ADC ranges of 0 to 16 V or 0 to 32 V, with the 32 V setting limited by the 26 V maximum applied bus voltage condition.

The device operates from a 3 to 5.5 V supply and has 0.7 mA typical, 1 mA maximum quiescent current during operation. Power-down quiescent current is 6 µA typical and 15 µA maximum. The digital interface is I2C- or SMBus-compatible, supports 16 programmable addresses, and includes SMBus timeout behavior when SCL or SDA remains low for more than 28 ms.

Analog measurement parameters include 12-bit basic ADC resolution, 10 µV shunt-voltage LSB size, 4 mV bus-voltage LSB size, and shunt full-scale selections of ±40 mV, ±80 mV, ±160 mV, and ±320 mV. Package options are SOIC-8 and SOT-23-8, with junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 111.3 °C/W and 135.4 °C/W respectively.

Procurement Notes

When requesting a quote for INA219, buyers should confirm the manufacturer, package or case, required quantity, target date code, compliance documents, packing method, destination country and expected delivery schedule.

If alternatives are acceptable, buyers should share the approved vendor list, required electrical or optical limits, package constraints and qualification requirements. Any alternative part should be reviewed by the buyer's engineering team before production use.

For power IC and power device sourcing, voltage rating, current rating, power dissipation, package thermal performance, protection features, qualification grade and application conditions should be reviewed before approval.

FAQ

What bus voltage range can the INA219 sense?

The INA219 senses across shunts on buses from 0 to 26 V. Its ADC also has selectable bus-voltage ranges of 0 to 16 V and 0 to 32 V, but the 32 V range is for ADC scaling and must not exceed the 26 V applied limit.

What supply voltage does the INA219 require?

The operating supply range is 3 to 5.5 V. Texas Instruments also lists 3.3 V nominal as a recommended operating supply condition, with a typical power-on reset threshold of 2 V.

Which interface and address options are supported?

The INA219 uses an I2C- or SMBus-compatible interface with 16 programmable addresses. Bus timing supports 0.001 to 0.4 MHz fast mode and 0.001 to 2.56 MHz high-speed mode, with SMBus timeout behavior after SCL or SDA stays low.
