Description
7Semi INA240A2 4~80V Bidirectional Current Sense Amplifier Breakout, 50V/V Gain
The 7Semi INA240A2 Breakout is a high-precision, bidirectional current-sense amplifier module based on the Texas Instruments INA240A2. Designed for accurate current measurement across a shunt resistor, the module provides a proportional voltage output with excellent noise rejection and stability. With a wide common-mode voltage range from –4V to +80V and a 50V/V gain, it is ideal for motor control, battery systems, DC-DC converters, and other applications requiring robust high-side or low-side current sensing.
