PRODUCTION DATA
The INA310x measures current through a resistive shunt with current flowing in one direction that enables detection of an overcurrent event only when the differential input voltage exceeds the threshold limit. When the current reaches the set limit of the divider of R1 and R2, the output of comparator (CMPOUT) transitions high, which turns on Q1, pulls the gate of the pass-FET low, and turns off the flow of the current. In this example application, the common-mode voltage is set at 5 V. The maximum sense current is 1 A, an alert must be indicated if the current exceeds 1.2 A, and a 5 V supply is available for the INA310x. Following the design guidelines from Section 8.1.1, a RSHUNT of 100 mΩ and a gain of 20 V/V are selected to provide a good output dynamic range. Table 8-3 lists the design setup for this application.
