INA186A2IDDFR

Texas Instruments · Current-Sensing Amplifiers · TSOT-23-8

INA186A2IDDFR from Texas Instruments, in a TSOT-23-8. 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 VS power_in Power supply input, 1.7 V to 5.5 V. Bypass to GND with a 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor placed close to the pin.
2 ENABLE input Digital enable input. Drive to VS to enable the amplifier for normal current-sense operation. Drive to GND to disable the device, which reduces supply current and puts the output in a high-impedance state. Must be driven externally or tied to VS when unused; available only on DDF and YFD packages.
3 REF input Reference voltage input. An externally applied voltage on this pin enables bidirectional current sensing by offsetting the output. Available only on DCK and SC70 packages plus DDF; devices without a REF pin tie the internal REF node to GND.
4 GND power_in Ground / analog return.
5 OUT output Analog output. Provides an output voltage equal to the differential input voltage (IN+ minus IN-) multiplied by the device gain (50 V/V for the A2 option), added to the REF pin voltage.
6 NC unconnected No internal connection. May be left floating, tied to ground, or connected to the supply.
7 IN+ input Positive input of the current-sense amplifier. For high-side applications connect to the bus-side (supply-side) of the sense resistor; for low-side applications connect to the load-side of the sense resistor.
8 IN- input Negative input of the current-sense amplifier. 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.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
ina186a2iddfr.step 123 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
ina186a2iddfr-etched.step 2.3 MB You want the part with INA186A2IDDFR already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 590 faces against 147 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.
