Quad Current-Sense Amplifier
with Overcurrent Threshold Comparators
RIN x IBIAS contributes to the input voltage offset. IBIAS
is typically 0.2FA.
Placing RIN at the INx- input voltage does not affect the
gain error of the device because the gain is given by the
ratio between ROUTx and R1 at INx+.
Bidirectional Application
Some systems can require a precise bidirectional cur-
rent-sense amplifier to accurately monitor currents.
Measurement of the two separate outputs with respect
to GND yields an accurate measure of the bidirectional
Choosing the Delay Capacitor
The SHTDN output asserts upon overcurrent detection
on any of the 4 channels. OC1 to OC4 are logically ORed
together; SHTDN latches the output after some delay.
SHTDN latch delay is determined by the following equation:
tDLY = CCDLY × (VDD ÷ 10A)
Example CCDLY and tDLY pairs are given in the Electrical Figure 3. Bidirectional Application
