This user's guide describes the characteristics, operation, and use of the INA228, INA229, INA237, INA238, and
INA239 evaluation modules (EVMs). These EVMs are designed to evaluate the performance of the INA228,
INA229, INA237, INA238, and INA239. Throughout this document, the terms evaluation board, evaluation
module, and EVM are synonymous with the INA228EVM, INA229EVM, INA237EVM, INA238EVM, and
INA239EVM. This document includes a schematic, reference printed-circuit board (PCB) layouts, and a
complete bill of materials (BOM).

    ALERT. The devices operate from a single supply of 2.7 V to 5.5 V, drawing < 1.1-mA current during operation and with < 5-µA current during shutdown. The output can be interfaced with a multitude of microcontrollers (MCUs) with a standard 4-wire SPI interface (INA229 and INA239) or with a standard I2C interface (INA228, INA237, and INA238).

    This section describes the main INA device and supporting components. U1 is the main INA current-sensing device (either the INA228, INA229, INA237, INA238, or INA239). C1 and C2 are bypass capacitors that are placed near the sensor to help mitigate power supply noise and provide current quickly to the device when needed.
