6.3.3 Low VSENSE Operation

The INA187 features high performance operation across the entire valid VSENSE range. The zero-drift input architecture of the INA187 provides the low offset voltage and low offset drift needed to measure low VSENSE levels accurately across the wide operating temperature of –40°C to +125°C. Low VSENSE operation is particularly beneficial when using low ohmic shunts for low current measurements, as power losses across the shunt are significantly reduced.
