INA181A3IDBVR from Texas Instruments, in a SOT-23-6. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUT | output | Analog output voltage. Amplified voltage proportional to the sensed current (V_OUT = Gain x V_SENSE + V_REF). Rail-to-rail output; A3 gain option is 100 V/V. |
| 2 | GND | power_in | Device ground reference (0 V). |
| 3 | IN+ | input | Current-sense amplifier positive input. For high-side applications, connect to the bus-voltage side of the sense resistor. For low-side applications, connect to the load side of the sense resistor. Common-mode range -0.2 V to +26 V. |
| 4 | IN- | input | Current-sense amplifier negative input. For high-side applications, connect to the load side of the sense resistor. For low-side applications, connect to the ground side of the sense resistor. Common-mode range -0.2 V to +26 V. |
| 5 | REF | input | Reference input. Sets the output voltage when the sensed differential input voltage is zero (allows bidirectional current sensing when biased between GND and VS). |
| 6 | VS | power_in | Power supply, 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Bypass to GND with a 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 547 faces against 117 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
