VALUE

The Configuration Register settings control the operating modes for the INA226. This register controls the

conversion time settings for both the shunt and bus voltage measurements as well as the averaging mode used.

The operating mode that controls what signals are selected to be measured is also programmed in the

Configuration Register.

The Configuration Register can be read from at any time without impacting or affecting the device settings or a

conversion in progress. Writing to the Configuration Register will halt any conversion in progress until the write

sequence is completed resulting in a new conversion starting based on the new contents of the Configuration

Register. This prevents any uncertainty in the conditions used for the next completed conversion.
