1 19-13; Rev 2; 9/ Low-Cost, SOT23, Voltage-Output, General Description The MAX173 low-cost, precision, high-side currentsense amplifier is available in a tiny SOT23-6 package. It features a voltage output that eliminates the need for gain-setting resistors and it is ideal for today s notebook computers, cell phones, and other systems where current monitoring is critical. High-side current monitoring is especially useful in battery-powered systems, since it does not interfere with the ground path of the battery charger. The input common-mode range of to +28V is independent of the supply voltage and ensures that the current-sense feedback remains viable even when connected to a battery in deep discharge. The MAX173 s wide 1.7MHz bandwidth makes it suitable for use inside battery charger control loops. The combination of three gain versions and a userselectable external sense resistor sets the full-scale current reading. This feature offers a high level of integration, resulting in a simple and compact currentsense solution. The MAX173 operates from a single +3V to +28V supply, typically draws only 2µA of supply current over the extended operating temperature range (- C to +85 C), and is offered in the space-saving SOT23-6 package.

7 Detailed Description The MAX173 high-side current-sense amplifier features a to +28V input common-mode range that is independent of supply voltage. This feature allows the monitoring of current out of a battery in deep discharge and also enables high-side current sensing at voltages greater than the supply voltage (VCC). The MAX173 operates as follows: Current from the source flows through RSENSE to the load (Figure 1). Since the internal-sense amplifier s inverting input has high impedance, negligible current flows through RG2 (neglecting the input bias current). Therefore, the sense amplifier s inverting-input voltage equals V SOURCE - (I LOAD )(R SENSE ). The amplifier s open-loop gain forces its noninverting input to the same voltage as the inverting input. Therefore, the drop across RG1 equals (I LOAD )(R SENSE ). Since I RG1 flows through RG1, I RG1 = (I LOAD )(R SENSE ) / RG1. The internal current mirror multiplies I RG1 by a current gain factor, β, to give I RGD = β I RG1. Solving I RGD = β (I LOAD )(R SENSE ) / RG1. Assuming infinite output impedance, V = (I RGD ) (RGD). Substituting in for I RGD and rearranging, V = β (RGD / RG1)(R SENSE I LOAD ). The parts gain equals β RGD / RG1. Therefore, V = (GA) (R SENSE ) (I LOAD ), where GA = 2 for, GA = 5 for, and GA = 1 for.

Applications Information Recommended Component Values The MAX173 senses a wide variety of currents with different sense resistor values. Table 1 lists common resistor values for typical operation of the MAX173. Choosing RSENSE To measure lower currents more accurately, use a high value for RSENSE. The high value develops a higher sense voltage that reduces offset voltage errors of the internal op amp. In applications monitoring very high currents, RSENSE must be able to dissipate the I 2 R losses. If the resistor s rated power dissipation is exceeded, its value may drift or it may fail altogether, causing a differential voltage across the terminals in excess of the absolute maximum ratings. If I SENSE has a large high-frequency component, minimize the inductance of R SENSE. Wire-wound resistors have the highest inductance, metal-film resistors are somewhat better, and low-inductance metal-film resistors are best suited for these applications. Using a PCB Trace as RSENSE If the cost of RSENSE is an issue and accuracy is not critical, use the alternative solution shown in Figure 2. This solution uses copper PC board traces to create a sense resistor. The resistivity of a.1-inch-wide trace of 2-ounce copper is approximately 3mΩ/ft. The resistance-temperature coefficient of copper is fairly high (approximately.%/ C), so systems that experience a wide temperature variance must compensate for this effect. In addition, do not exceed the maximum power dissipation of the copper trace. For example, the (with a maximum load current of 1A and an R SENSE of 5mΩ) creates a full-scale V SENSE of 5mV that yields a maximum V of 1V. R SENSE in this case requires about 2 inches of.1 inchwide copper trace. Output Impedance The output of the MAX173 is a current source driving a 12kΩ resistance. Resistive loading added to reduces the output gain of the MAX173. To minimize output errors for most applications, connect to a high-impedance input stage. When output buffering is required, choose an op amp with a common-mode input range and an output voltage swing that includes ground when operating with a single supply. The op /F/H 7
