INA282: INA282 Equation questions.

Wei-Hao Chen (TW-FAE)
Expert 3260 points
Part Number: INA282

Hi support team experts,

My customer is having some urgent question regarding the equations in the INA282 datasheet, could you please help us to clarify them:

System Setting:

  • REF1 => 0V (Grounded)
  • REF => 2.495V (from TL432B)
  • V+ => +5V
  • Rshunt = 15mohm
  • Maximum current = 15A
  • Bus voltage = +48V

Question1: What is the value 12V in the VOS_CM equation ? Is it a constant value?

Question2: What is the definition of VCM in the VOS_CM equation ? Does it refer to VIN for my case?

Question3: If considering there is a ripple voltage with 4Vp-p and the dV/dt is 40V/us on VIN, how to calculate the VOS_CM ­which is cause by the ripple voltage?

Question4: What is the definition of VREF of VOS_REF ? For my case, REF1=0V, REF2=2.495V, how can I obtain the VREF to calculate the VOS_REF ?

Question5: What is the tolerance of 2.048V in VOS_REF ?

Thanks a lot.

Best Regards,

Wei-Hao

    Hello Wei-Hao,

    Thanks for using our forum!

    Answer1: 12V corresponds to the datasheet common-mode voltage (V+IN =12V) test condition when we characterized the part for offset and CMRR.

    Answer2:  VCM refers to the common mode.  Technically VCM is (V+IN +V-IN)/2, but it often is just approximated to or assumed to be V+IN because shunt resistors are small (<1 ohm).  However, if your shunt is larger than 1 ohm, you should take the average of the inputs V+IN and V-IN.

    Answer3:  Assuming your ripple frequency is fast (higher than the device bandwidth), symmetric, and immediately changes direction after reaching the peak magnitude, I would expect your VCM to be the average of the minimum and maximum values of the ripple, which you could then use in the equation in the table.  

    Answer4:  REF1 and REF2 go to the terminals of a voltage divider. So VREF should roughly be (REF2-REF1)*33.3k/(33.3K+33.3k)=2.495/2=1.2475V

    Answer 5: The equation above assumes zero tolerance.  However, according to the datasheet the match between divider resistors can be off by as much as 0.5%.  This would mean that in the worst case, the VREF could range from 1.021434V to 1.026554V.

    Hi Patrick ,

    Thanks for your quick response, I am the question owner.

    (Wei-Hao help to pass my questions to this forum)

    I want have more detail clarification on question 3.

    The ripple frequency is 80kHz ~ 480kHz, the CMRR_dB should be 75dB from the curve.

    If the average value of ripple voltage is 0.3V and the V+IN is 48V

    So the calculation result will be 53.4uV, is it correct?

    Thanks and Regards,

    Chris Huang

    Hello Chris,

    There is also the offset from the DC portion of the CMRR as I am sure you already know. However, the AC offset is considerably larger and therefore dominates and your method of calculating it is correct.
