The MikroElektronika Current 5 Click 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 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. This Click board delivers higher performance to applications such as test and measurement, load and power supplies monitoring, low side phase motor control and many more.

Common mode input range is –0.2 V to +26 V
High accuracy amplifier
Integrated comparator
