INA226 DC I2C Current Sensor Logic 3.3 and 5V

The INA226 Current module is the solution to all your power-monitoring needs. It is also able to read current when a shunt resistor is added. With its advanced INA226B chip, you can easily measure high side voltage and DC current draw with 1% precision using just one device. This module can handle high side current measuring up to +36VDC, even when powered by just 3 or 5V. It also reports back the high side voltage, making it perfect for tracking battery life or solar panels without the need for multiple multimeters.

Shunt Resistor

The shunt resitors determine the current Range, default value R100 = 0,1Ω
The resolution of the shunt voltage is 2.5 mV with a full scale of 32768x2.5 = 81.92mV.

• 0.1Ω = ±0.819A     (default) 
• 0.01Ω = ±8.192A
• 0.001Ω = ±81.92A
