    Quick Start Setup and Use The following instructions show how to set up and use the INA185 devices with the INA185EVM. For the circuits in the following instructions, x = A to D. Step 1. Connect an external dc supply voltage between 2.7-V and 5.5-V to the VCC test point TP2x, and connect the ground reference of that supply to one of the GND test points: TP7x, TP8x, or TP9x.
  • Page 5: Circuitry

    Circuitry This section summarizes the INA185EVM components. For the following circuits, x = A to D. C1x, J1x, R1x, and TP1x C1x and R1x form a low-pass RC filter to the source that supplies the INA185 REF pin. By default, no filter is installed, with R1x shorted by a 0-Ω...
  • Page 6: Reference Voltage Setup

    Alternatively, install C4x, R5x, R6x, and U2x to provide a buffered voltage divider input from the supply to set the reference voltage. For the buffered divider, install the jumper on the middle and right pins of J1x. INA185EVM SBOU167 – March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated...

    Schematic Figure 1 shows the schematic for the INA185EVM PCB. Only the schematic for the 20-V/V gain variant is included because all other variants use the same exact circuit with the same layout. All components associated with the 20-V/V INA185 A1 gain variant have the letter A appended at the end. The 50-V/V A2 gain variant has B appended, the 100-V/V A3 gain variant has C appended, and the 200-V/V A4 gain variant has a D appended.
