The Current 5 Click Board??is a compact add-on board that provides a precise and accurate current sensing solution. This board features the?INA381, a high-speed current-sense amplifier with an integrated comparator from?Texas Instruments. This device has selectable operating modes (transparent or latched) and detects overcurrent conditions by measuring the voltage developed across a current shunt resistor. Then it compares that voltage to a user-defined threshold limit set by the comparator reference potentiometer. The current-shunt monitor can measure differential voltage signals on common-mode voltages that vary from ?0.2V to 26V, independent of the supply voltage.
