We have some problem need to be clarification in our application. In our Motor current sensing, we use both High side current sensing at Motor forward and Low side current sensing at Motor reverse. I learned INA226 is a Bi-Directional current sensor, is this workable for our application?
Moreover, When the motor starts working(current is about 2A), INA226 is working well. When the motor stalls(current is about 12A), INA226 burns out (we tried to measure the pin impedance of the fail unit , we found both VIN+/VIN- are damaged.
Do you think it will be damaged by over current? or over voltage spike?
Please kindly help on this issue and I am looking forward to having your comment , Thanks.
