It can not only do the work of two multimeters, but also with\namazing precision and flexibility.

It is\ncompatible with 3V or 5V logic and can measure bus voltages up to +36VDC. Not\nfor use with AC voltages. Most current meters work with some notable\nlimitations that limit what they can be used for. Many are only on low side,\nwhich can cause problems when the ground reference changes with the current.\nOthers, like its little sister, the INA219B, avoid this by measuring on the\nhigh side, but need to change their shunt resistance to measure different\ncurrent ranges. The INA260 avoids these limitations and with its built-in\nprecision shunt resistor it can be used to measure up to +36V at up to 15A\ncontinuously on the high or low side. Wow! The voltage via the integrated 2\nmilliohm (0.002 ohm!) 0.1% shunt resistance is measured by the internal 16-bit\nADC, which allows measurements over the impressive current range with a\nresolution of 1.5 mA.
