AUTOMOTIVE GRADE MICROPOWER CURRENT MONITOR
Description
Pin Assignments
The ZXCT1009Q is a micropower high side current sense monitor.
SOT23
Package Suffix - F
This device eliminates the need to disrupt the ground plane when
sensing a load current.
It takes a high side voltage developed across a current shunt resistor
VSENSE-
and translates it into a proportional output current. A user defined
3
output resistor scales the output current into a ground-referenced
1
voltage.
VSENSE+
The wide input voltage range of 20V down to as low as 2.5V make it
IOUT
2
suitable for a range of applications. A minimum operating current of
(Top View)
just 4µA, combined with a SOT23 package make it a unique solution
for portable battery equipment.
The ZXCT1009Q has been qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 3 and is
Automotive Grade supporting PPAPs.

Power Dissipation
The maximum allowable power dissipation of the device for normal operation (P MAX), is a function of the package junction to ambient thermal
resistance (θJA), maximum junction temperature (TJMAX), and ambient temperature (TAMB), according to the expression:
PMAX = (TJMAX – TAMB) / θJA
The device power dissipation, PD is given by the expression:
PD = IOUT x (VIN -VOUT) W

Typical Characteristics (cont.)
Application Information
Referring to Figure 1, where RLOAD represents any load including DC motors, a charging battery or further circuitry that requires monitoring,
RSENSE can be selected on specific requirements of accuracy, size and power rating.
The following text describes how to scale a load current to an output voltage.
Referring to Figure 1.
VSENSE = VIN - VLOAD
= RSENSE x ILOAD
(1)
IOUT = VSENSE x 10mA/V
(2)
VOUT = IOUT x ROUT
(3)
Combining (2) and (3) VOUT can be determined to be:
VOUT = 0.01 x VSENSE x ROUT
(4)
Example:
A 1A current is to be represented by a 1V output voltage:
1) Choose the value of RSENSE to give 50mV > VSENSE > 500mV at full load.
For example set VSENSE = 100mV at 1.0A.
Rearranging (1) gives:

= 0.1/1.0 = 0.1Ω.
2) Choose ROUT to give VOUT = 1V, when VSENSE = 100mV.
Rearranging (4) for ROUT gives:

Application Information (cont.)
Transient Protection
An additional resistor, RLIM can be added in series with ROUT (Figure 2), to limit the current from IOUT. Any circuit connected to VOUT will be
protected from input voltage transients.
Figure 2 ZXCT1009Q with Additional Current Limiting Resistor RLIM and Zener Z1.
This can be of particular use in automotive applications where load dump and other common transients need to be considered.
Adding a Zener diode Z1 provides additional protection for local dump, reverse battery and high voltage transient incidents.
Assuming the worst case condition of VOUT = 0V; providing a low impedance to a transient, the minimum value of RLIM is given by:
RLIM(min) = (VPK – VMAX)/ IPK
Where:
VPK = Peak transient voltage to be withstood
VMAX = Maximum working voltage = 20V
IPK = Peak output current = 40mA
The maximum value of RLIM is set by VIN(MIN), VOUT(MAX) and the dropout voltage (see transfer characteristic on page 3) of the ZXCT1009Q:

I ( A )
) =

Where:
VIN(MIN) = Minimum Supply Operating Voltage
VDP = Dropout Voltage
VOUT(MAX) = Maximum Operating Output Voltage
PCB Trace Shunt Resistor for Low Cost Solution
The figure below shows output characteristics of the device when using a PCB resistive trace for a low cost solution in replacement for a
conventional shunt resistor. The graph shows the linear rise in voltage across the resistor due to the PTC of the material and demonstrates how
this rise in resistance value over temperature compensates for the NTC of the device.
The figure opposite shows a CB layout suggestion. he resistor section is 25mm
0.25mm giving appro imately 150mΩ using 1oz copper.
he data for the normalized graph was obtained using a 1A load current and a 100Ω output resistor. An electronic version of the PCB layout is
available through Diodes applications group.
