INA148-Q1 is a unity-gain difference amplifier with a high common-mode input voltage range. It is suitable to be used in many different applications that need bidirectional measurments in a high input common-mode environment.
For this design example, use the parameters listed in Table 1 as the input parameters.
PARAMETER | EXAMPLE VALUE |
---|---|
Battery voltage | 28 V |
Sense resistor | 0.01 Ω |
Load current bidirectional | –50 A to 50 A |
Reference voltage (LM4041-N-Q1) | 1.235 V ± 0.1% |
This circuit is designed for measuring the high-side current bidirectional in automotive battery monitor such as charging or body control modules with a 28-V battery or similar applications. The voltage difference amplifier REF pin is set at 1.235 V for bidirectional current measurement.
The LM4041-V-Q1 supply current is around 100 µA. It is provided from the 28-V battery through 271-kΩ resistor. The INA148-Q1 has a gain of 1 and output voltage as shown in Equation 3:
The sense resistor value can be changed according to measured current range. TI recommends choosing the right value for minimizing the error and the dissipating power. The measured differential voltage is given as Equation 4 and the dissipated power is given as Equation 5.
For this design example, use the parameters listed in Table 2 as the input parameters.
PARAMETER | EXAMPLE VALUE |
---|---|
Common-mode supply voltage (–200 V to 200 V) | 15 V |
Common-mode supply voltage (–100 V to 750 V) | 5 V |
U2 | OPA171-Q1 |
External resistor | 1 MΩ |
External capacitor | 0.22 µF |
A quasi-AC coupled differential amplifier can be simply made by adding a general-purpose op amp configured as an integrator externally to the device. Equation 6 shows the output of OPA171-Q1.
where
Equation 7 shows the output of INA148-Q1.
Equation 8 is the result of combining the previous two equations.
where
The transfer function has a zero and a pole at . Making a gain slope of 20 dB/decade below the cutoff frequncy and flat 0 dB above.
VREF can be set to 0 V in case of dual supply.
For this design example, use the parameters listed in Table 3 as the input parameters.
PARAMETER | EXAMPLE VALUE |
---|---|
Common-mode voltage | –23 V to 56 V |
Load current | Bidirectional |
Reference voltage (LM4041-N-Q1) | 1.235 V ± 0.1% |
Supply voltage (INA148-Q1) | 5 V |
For applications that have –23-V to 56-V common-mode voltage and a single 5-V supply, the common-mode rejection ratio is in the order of 80 dB. The INA148-Q1 is not a rail-to-rail output. An external reference voltage is necessary for bidirectional measurment or low differential output. The external resistor is necessary to provide a 100-µA supply to LM4041-N-Q1.
For this design example, use the parameters listed in Table 4 as the input parameters.
PARAMETER | EXAMPLE VALUE |
---|---|
Decoupling capacitors | 4.7 µF, 250 V ± 5% |
Differential input voltage range | –14 V to 14 V |
An AC-coupled voltage difference amplifier requires 2 series capacitors. These capacitors must be high quality with tolerance of less than 5% and a rated voltage of 250 V at 200-V common-mode.
For this design example, use the parameters listed in Table 5 as the input parameters.
PARAMETER | EXAMPLE VALUE |
---|---|
Common-mode voltage | ±200 V |
Differential input voltage | –50 mV to 50 mV |
Gain (OPA171-Q1) | 200 |
Isolated power supply | ±15 V |
The OPA171-Q1 gain is 200, set by 1 kΩ and 200 kΩ resistors. The OPA171-Q1 positive input and the INA148‑Q1 are both tied to the isolated power supply common ground. The OPA171-Q1 output is calculated by Equation 9.

The INA148-Q1 output is calculated by Equation 10.
