Overview

The INA745AIRELR is a 16-bit high-precision digital current and power monitor with an integrated shunt resistor, designed for common-mode voltages up to 40V. This I2C-compatible device simplifies power measurement by eliminating the need for external sense resistors, providing accurate current, voltage, and power readings in a compact 14-VQFN package.

Why Choose This Part

The integrated shunt resistor minimizes PCB layout complexity and reduces errors caused by temperature coefficients and trace resistance. With a high-resolution 16-bit ADC and a programmable precision oscillator, it provides reliable 0.1 percent accuracy for demanding power management tasks.

Applications

Industrial Battery Management
Monitoring state-of-charge and health in 24V or 36V industrial battery packs with high precision.
Enterprise Server Infrastructure
Real-time power monitoring for individual blade servers or rack-mount power distribution units.
Telecom Power Delivery
Ensures reliable power usage tracking in high-availability telecommunications hardware.
Grid Infrastructure
Precise power monitoring for smart grid nodes and energy distribution equipment.
