INA238AIDGSR

Texas Instruments · Current-Sensing Amplifiers · VSSOP-10-0.5mm

INA238AIDGSR from Texas Instruments, in a VSSOP-10-0.5mm. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 A1 input I2C address pin; connect to GND, SCL, SDA, or VS to select the device address.
2 A0 input I2C address pin; connect to GND, SCL, SDA, or VS to select the device address.
3 ALERT output Open-drain alert output whose default state is active low and must be pulled up by an external resistor.
4 SDA bidirectional Open-drain bidirectional I2C data line.
5 SCL input I2C clock input.
6 VS power_in Power supply input, 2.7V to 5.5V.
7 GND power_in Ground reference for the device.
8 VBUS power_in Bus voltage sense input, common-mode range -0.3V to 85V per the absolute maximum ratings.
9 IN- input Negative differential input; for high-side use connect to the load side of the sense resistor, and for low-side use connect to the ground side of the sense resistor.
10 IN+ input Positive differential input; for high-side use connect to the power supply side of the sense resistor, and for low-side use connect to the load side of the sense resistor.
