ENHANCED HIGH-SIDE CURRENT MONITOR
Description
Pin Assignments
The ZXCT1010 is a high side current sense monitor. Using this
SOT25
Package Suffix - E5
device eliminates the need to disrupt the ground plane when sensing
a load current.
NC 1
It is an enhanced version of the ZXCT1009 offering reduced typical
5 VSENSE -
output offset and improved accuracy at low sense voltage.
GND 2
The wide input voltage range of 20V down to as low as 2.5V make it
suitable for a range of applications. A minimum operating current of
IOUT 3
just 4µA, combined with its SOT25 package make suitable for
portable battery equipment.

Power Dissipation
The maximum allowable power dissipation of the device for normal operation (PMAX), is a function of the package junction temperature (TJ(MAX)),
and ambient temperature (TAMB), according to the expression.
PMAX = (TJ(MAX) – TAMB)/θJA
The device power dissipation, PD is given by the expression:
PD = IOUT*(VIN – VOUT) Watts
Application Information
The following lines describes how to scale a load current to an output voltage.
VSENSE = VIN – VLOAD
VOUT = 0.01 x VSENSE x ROUT
E.g.
A 1.0A current is to be represented by a 100mV output voltage:
1)
Choose the value of RSENSE to give 50mV > VSENSE > 500mV at full load.
For example, VSENSE = 100mV at 1.0A. RSENSE = 0.1/1.0 = > 0.1ohms.
2)
Choose ROUT to give VOUT = 100mV, when VSENSE = 100mV.
Rearranging for Rout gives:
ROUT = VOUT/(VSENSE x 0.01)
ROUT = 0.1/(0.1 x 0.01) = 100Ω
Typical Application Circuit
Typical Circuit Application:
When RLOAD represented 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.

Application Information (cont.)
Li-ion Charger Circuit:
The figure below shows the ZXCT1010 supporting the Benchmarq bq2954 Charge Management IC. Most of the support components for the
bq2954 are omitted for clarity. This design also uses the Zetex FZT789A high current Super-b PNP as the switching transistor in the DC-DC step
down converter and the FMMT451 as the drive NPN for the FZT789A. The circuit can be configured to charge up to four Li-ion cells at a charge
current of 1.25A. Charge can be terminated on maximum voltage, selectable minimum current, or maximum time out, switching frequency of the
PWM loop is approximately 120kHz.
Bi-Directional Current Sensing:
The ZXCT1010 can be used to measure current bi-directionally, if two devices are connected as show below:
If the voltage V1 is positive with respect to the voltage V2 the lower device will be active, delivering a proportional output current to Rout. Due to the
polarity of the voltage across RSENSE, the upper device will be inactive and will not contribute to the current delivered to Rout. When V2 is more
positive than V1, current will be flowing in the opposite direction, causing the upper device to be active instead.
Non-linearity will be apparent at small values of VSENSE due to offset current contribution. Devices can use separate output resistors if the current
direction is to be monitored independently.

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 PCB layout suggestion. The resistor section is 25mm x 0.25mm giving approximately 150mΩ using 1oz copper. The
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
by request.
