HIGH-SIDE CURRENT MONITOR
Description
Pin Assignments
SOT23
Package Suffix - F
The ZXCT1009 is a high side current sense monitor. Using
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 and translates it into a proportional output current. A
user defined output resistor scales the output current into a
ground-referenced voltage.

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 just 4µA, combined with a SOT23
package make it a unique solution for portable battery
equipment. The SM8 device offers an alternative package
option.

Typical Characteristics (cont.)
Power Dissipation
Application Information
The maximum allowable power dissipation of the device for
normal operation (PMAX), is a function of the package junction to
ambient thermal resistance (θJA), maximum junction temperature
(TJMAX), and ambient temperature (TAMB), according to the
expression:
The following text describes how to scale a load current
to an output voltage.
PMAX = (TJMAX – TAMB) / θJA
E.g.
The device power dissipation, PD is given by the expression:
A 1A current is to be represented by a 100mV output
voltage:
PD = IOUT(VIN -VOUT) W
VSENSE = VIN - VLOAD
1
VOUT = 0.01 x VSENSE x ROUT
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 => 0.1Ω.
2) Choose ROUT to give VOUT = 100mV, when
VSENSE = 100mV.
Rearranging 1 for Rout gives:
ROUT = VOUT /(VSENSE x 0.01)
ROUT = 0.1 / (0.1 x 0.01) = 100Ω

Li-Ion Charger Circuit
Transient Protection
An additional resistor, RLIM can be added in series with ROUT
(as below), to limit the current from IOUT. Any circuit
connected to VOUT will be protected from input voltage
transients. This can be of particular use in automotive
applications where load dump and other common transients
need to be considered.

The above figure shows the ZXCT1009 supporting the
Benchmarq bq2954 Charge Management IC. Most of the
support components for the bq2954 are omitted for clarity.
This design also uses the Diodes FZT789A high current
Super-ß 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.
The ZXCT1009 is intended as a direct functional
replacement for the ZDS1009, which is featured in a
complete design from Unitrode/Texas Instruments on the
Li-Ion
charger
circuit
shown
above.

RLIM
VOUT
ROUT
ZXCT1009 with additional current limiting Resistor RLIM.
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
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 ZXCT1009 :RLIM(MAX) = ROUT[VIN(MIN) – (VDP + VOUT(MAX))]/VOUT(MAX)
VIN(MIN) = Minimum Supply Operating Voltage
VDP = Dropout Voltage
VOUT(MAX) = Maximum Operating Output Voltage

Application Information (cont.)
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 NTCof 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 normalised 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.
Layout shows area of shunt resistor compared to SOT23
package. Not actual size.
