Current and Power Calculations

For the INA237-Q1 device to report current values in Ampere units, a constant conversion value must be written in the SHUNT_CAL register that is dependent on the maximum measured current and the shunt resistance used in the application. The SHUNT_CAL register is calculated based on Equation 1. The term CURRENT_LSB is the LSB step size for the CURRENT register where the current in Amperes is stored. The value of CURRENT_LSB is based on the maximum expected current as shown in Equation 2, and it directly defines the resolution of the CURRENT register. While the smallest CURRENT_LSB value yields highest resolution, it is common to select a higher round-number (no higher than 8x) value for the CURRENT_LSB in order to simplify the conversion of the CURRENT.

The RSHUNT term is the resistance value of the external shunt used to develop the differential voltage across the IN+ and IN– pins. Use Equation 1 for ADCRANGE = 0. For ADCRANGE = 1, the value of SHUNT_CAL must be multiplied by 4.

Equation 1. GUID-20210119-CA0I-KJDH-14NZ-VZKTT62J57BP-low.gif

where

  • 819.2 x 106 is an internal fixed value used to ensure scaling is maintained properly.
  • the value of SHUNT_CAL must be multiplied by 4 for ADCRANGE = 1.

 

Equation 2. GUID-7373CF0E-C950-4CB2-AE6F-257054DF0A60-low.gif

Note that the current is calculated following a shunt voltage measurement based on the value set in the SHUNT_CAL register. If the value loaded into the SHUNT_CAL register is zero, the current value reported through the CURRENT register is also zero.

After programming the SHUNT_CAL register with the calculated value, the measured current in Amperes can be read from the CURRENT register. The final value is scaled by CURRENT_LSB and calculated in Equation 3:

Equation 3. GUID-DF56AF98-F57E-41EB-89A1-F6723F758787-low.gif

where

  • CURRENT is the value read from the CURRENT register

The power value can be read from the POWER register as a 24-bit value and converted to Watts by using Equation 4:

 

Equation 4. GUID-20210119-CA0I-RP2C-H6SM-HKLJXC5TFJPW-low.gif

where

  • POWER is the value read from the POWER register.
  • CURRENT_LSB is the lsb size of the current calculation as defined by Equation 2.

 

For a design example using these equations refer to Section 8.2.2.
