7.3.1 Bidirectional Current Sensing

The INA30x-Q1 sense current flow through a sense resistor in both directions. The bidirectional current-sensing capability is achieved by applying a voltage at the REF pin to offset the output voltage. A positive differential voltage sensed at the inputs results in an output voltage that is greater than the applied reference voltage. Likewise, a negative differential voltage at the inputs results in output voltage that is less than the applied reference voltage. The equation for the output voltage of the current-sense amplifier is shown in Equation 1.

where

  • ILOAD is the load current to be monitored.
  • RSENSE is the current-sense resistor.
  • GAIN is the gain option of the device selected.
  • VREF is the voltage applied to the REF pin.
