INA208AIDGSR

Current Regulation/Management Overview

The INA208AIDGSR is a high-side current shunt monitor manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates with a supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 18 V and consumes 2.8 mA of operating supply current. The device supports input voltages from -16 V to 80 V, enabling measurement across a wide common-mode range. It is housed in an MSOP-10 surface-mount package and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

Current Regulation/Management Feature Summary

• Supports high-side current sensing with a wide common-mode voltage range extending up to 80 V.
• Operates reliably across an extended industrial temperature range from -40°C to +125°C.
• Designed for low-power applications with a specified operating supply current of 2.8 mA.

Current Regulation/Management Applications

• High-side current monitoring in power distribution systems
• Overcurrent protection circuits
• Battery management systems

Current Regulation/Management Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'R' indicates reel packaging when ordering. Confirm the 'I' grade meets your required accuracy specifications. Ensure the MSOP-10 footprint matches your PCB layout. Check datasheet for thermal dissipation requirements under maximum load conditions.

Current Regulation/Management Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high-side measurement with input voltages exceeding standard supply rails. Compare against the INA203 if bidirectional sensing is needed, as the INA208 is unidirectional. Verify that the 2.8 mA quiescent current fits within your system's power budget constraints.

Current Regulation/Management Part Context

This part belongs to the INA20x series of current shunt monitors from Texas Instruments. It provides a linear voltage output proportional to the current flowing through a shunt resistor. The device is designed for simple integration into existing power monitoring architectures without complex digital interfaces.

Current Regulation/Management Replacement Considerations

The INA203AIDGSR is a related variant but offers bidirectional measurement capability. Verify if bidirectional sensing is required for your application before substituting. Both parts share similar packaging and supply voltage ranges.
