The LT®1999 is a high speed precision current sense
amplifier, designed to monitor bidirectional currents over
a wide common mode range. The LT1999 is offered in
three gain options: 10V/V, 20V/V, and 50V/V.
The LT1999 senses current via an external resistive shunt
and generates an output voltage, indicating both magnitude
and direction of the sensed current. The output voltage is
referenced halfway between the supply voltage and ground,
or an external voltage can be used to set the reference
level. With a 2MHz bandwidth and a common mode input
range of –5V to 80V, the LT1999 is suitable for monitoring
currents in H-Bridge motor controls, switching power
supplies, solenoid currents, and battery charge currents
from full charge to depletion.

Note 2: Pin 2 (+IN) and Pin 3 (–IN) are protected by ESD voltage clamps
which have asymmetric bidirectional breakdown characteristics with respect
to the GND pin (Pin 5). These pins can safely support common mode
voltages which vary from –5.25V to 88V without triggering an ESD clamp.
Note 3: Exposure to differential sense voltages exceeding the normal
operating range for extended periods of time may degrade part
performance. A heat sink may be required to keep the junction temperature
below the Absolute Maximum Rating when the inputs are stressed
differentially. The amount of power dissipated in the LT1999 due to input
overdrive can be approximated by:
PDISS =
( V+IN − V−IN )2
8kΩ
Note 4: A heat sink may be required to keep the junction temperature
below the absolute maximum rating.
Note 5: The LT1999C/LT1999I are guaranteed functional over the operating
temperature range –40°C to 85°C. The LT1999H is guaranteed functional
over the operating temperature range –40°C to 125°C. The LT1999MP is
guaranteed functional over the operating temperature range –55°C to 150°C.
Junction temperatures greater than 125°C will promote accelerated aging.
The LT1999 has a demonstrated typical life beyond 1000 hours at 150°C.
Note 6: The LT1999C is guaranteed to meet specified performance from
0°C to 70°C. The LT1999C is designed, characterized, and expected to
meet specified performance from –40°C to 85°C but is not tested or
QA sampled at these temperatures. The LT1999I is guaranteed to meet
specified performance from –40°C to 85°C. The LT1999H is guaranteed
to meet specified performance from –40°C to 125°C. The LT1999MP is
guaranteed to meet specified performance from –55°C to 150°C.

Note 7: Full-scale sense (VSENSE) gives indication of the maximum
differential input that can be applied with better than 0.5% gain accuracy.
Gain accuracy is degraded when the output saturates against either power
supply rail. VSENSE is verified with V+ = 5.5V, VCM = 12V, with the REF pin
set to it’s voltage range limits. The maximum VSENSE is verified with the
REF pin set to it’s minimum specified limit, verifying the gain error is less
than 0.5% at the output. The minimum VSENSE is verified with the REF pin
set to its maximum specified limit, verifying the gain error at the output is
less than 0.5%. See Note 9 for more information.
Note 8: IB is defined as the average of the input bias currents to the +IN
and –IN pins (Pins 2 and 3). A positive current indicates current flowing
into the pin. IOS is defined as the difference of the input bias currents.
IOS = I(+IN) – I(–IN)
Note 9: The REF pin voltage range is the minimum and maximum limits
that ensures the input referred voltage offset does not exceed ±3mV over
the I, C, and H temperature ranges, and ±3.5mV over the MP temperature
range.
Note 10: Common mode recovery time is defined as the time it takes the
output of the LT1999 to recover from a 50V, 20ns input common mode
voltage transition, and settle to within the DC amplifier specifications.
Note 11: Operating the LT1999 with V+ < 4.5V is possible, although the
LT1999 is not tested or specified in this condition. See the Applications
Information section.

Pin Functions
V+ (Pins 1, 4): Power Supply Voltage. Pins 1 and 4 are
tied internally together. The specified range of operation
is 4.5V to 5.5V, but lower supply voltages (down to approximately 4V) is possible although the LT1999 is not
tested or characterized below 4.5V. See the Applications
Information section.
OUT (Pin 7): Voltage Output. VOUT = AV •(VSENSE ± VOSI),
where AV is the gain, and VOSI is the input referred offset voltage. The output amplifier has a low impedance
output and is designed to drive up to 200pF capacitive
loads directly. Capacitive loads exceeding 200pF should
be decoupled with an external resistor of at least 100Ω.
+IN (Pin 2): Positive Sense Input Pin.
SHDN (Pin 8): Shutdown Pin. When pulled to within 0.5V
of GND (Pin 5), will place the LT1999 into low power
shutdown. If the pin is left floating, an internal 2µA pullup current source will place the LT1999 into the active
(amplifying) state.
–IN (Pin 3): Negative Sense Input Pin.
GND (Pin 5): Ground Pin.
REF (Pin 6): Reference Pin Input. The REF pin sets the
output common mode level and is set halfway between V+
and GND using a divider made of two 160k resistors. The
default open circuit potential of the REF pin is mid-supply.
It can be overdriven by an external voltage source cable
of driving 80k to a mid-supply potential (see the Electrical
Characteristics table for its specified input voltage range).

Applications Information
The LT1999 current sense amplifier provides accurate
bidirectional monitoring of current through a user-selected
sense resistor. The voltage generated by the current flowing
in the sense resistor is amplified by a fixed gain of 10V/V,
20V/V or 50V/V (LT1999-10, LT1999-20, or LT1999-50
respectively) and is level shifted to the OUT pin. The voltage difference and polarity of the OUT pin with respect
to REF (Pin 6) indicates magnitude and direction of the
current in the sense resistor.
Theory of Operation
Refer to the Block Diagram (Figure 1).
Case 1: V+ < VCM < 80V
For input common mode voltages exceeding the power
supply, one can assume D1 of Figure 1 is completely off.
The sensed voltage (VSENSE) is applied across Pin 2 (+IN)
and Pin 3 (–IN) to matched resistors R+IN and R– IN (nominally 4k each). The opposite ends of R+IN and R– IN are
forced to equal potentials by transconductor GIN, which
convert the differentially sensed voltage into a sensed
current. The sensed current in R+IN and R– IN is combined,
level-shifted, and converted back into a voltage by transresistance amplifier AO and resistor RG. Amplifier AO provides high open loop gain to accurately convert the sensed
current back into a voltage and to drive external loads. The
theoretical output voltage is determined by the sensed
voltage (VSENSE), and the ratio of two on-chip resistors:
VOUT − VREF = VSENSE •
RG
RIN
Case 2: –5V < VCM < V+
For common mode inputs which transition or are set below
the supply voltage, diode D1 will turn on and will provide a
source of current through R+S and R –S to bias the inputs
of transconductance amplifier GIN at least 2.25V above
GND. The transition is smooth and continuous; there are
negligible changes to either gain or amplifier voltage offset. The only difference in amplifier operation is the bias
currents provided by D1 through R+S and R– S are steered
through the input pins, otherwise amplifier operation is
identical. The inputs to transconductance amplifier GIN are
still forced to equal potentials forcing any differential voltages appearing at the +IN and –IN pins into a differential
current. This differential current is combined, level-shifted,
and converted back into a voltage by trans-resistance
amplifier AO and Resistor RG. Resistors R+S and R– S are
trimmed to match R+IN and R– IN respectively, to prevent
common mode to differential conversion from occurring
(to the extent of the matched trim) when the input common mode transitions below V+.
As described in case 1, the output is determined by the
sense voltage and the ratio of two on-chip resistors:
VOUT − VREF = VSENSE •
RG
RIN
where
where
RIN =
The voltage difference between the OUT pin and the REF
pin represent both polarity and magnitude of the sensed
voltage. The noninverting input of amplifier AO is biased
by a resistive 160k to 160k divider tied between V+ and
GND to set the default REF pin bias to mid-supply.

For the LT1999-10, RG is nominally 40k. For the LT1999-20,

Applications Information
Input Common Mode Range

With the V+ supply configured within the specified and
tested range (4.5V < V+ < 5.5V), the LT1999’s common
mode range extends from –5V to 80V. Pushing +IN and
–IN beyond the limits specified in the Absolute Maximum
table can turn on the voltage clamps designed to protect
the +IN and –IN pins during ESD events.
It is possible to operate the LT1999 on power supplies
as low as 4V (although it is not tested or specified below
4.5V). Operating the LT1999 on supplies below 4V will
produce erratic behavior. When operating the LT1999
with supplies as low as 4V, the common mode range for
inputs which extend below GND is reduced. Refer to the
Block Diagram (Figure 1). For inputs driven below V+,
diode D1 conducts. For proper operation, the input to the
transconductor V(G+IN) must be biased at approximately
2.25V above the GND pin. V(G+IN) sits on the centertap
of a voltage divider comprised of R+S and R+IN V(G –IN)
likewise sits in the middle of the voltage divider comprised
of R – S , and R–IN). The voltage on V(G+IN) input is given
by the following equation:
R +S
R +IN
V(G +IN) = V +IN •
+ V + −VD1 •
R +S + R +IN
R +S + R +IN
(
)
Setting V(G+IN) = 2.25V, the ratio (R+IN /R+S) to 5, and VD1
equal to 0.8V (cold temperatures), a plot of the lower input
common mode range plotted against supply is shown in
Figure 3.

The LT1999 was optimized for high common mode rejection. Its input stage is balanced and fully differential,
designed to amplify differential signals and reject common
mode signals. There is negligible crossover distortion due
to sense voltage reversals. The amplifier is most linear in
the zero-sense region.

Figure 3. Lower Input Common Mode vs Supply Voltage
Output Common Mode Range
The LT1999’s output common mode level is set by the
voltage on the REF pin. The REF pin sits in the middle of
a 160k to 160k voltage divider connected between V+ and
GND which sets the default open circuit potential of the
REF pin to mid-supply. It can be overdriven by an external
voltage source capable of driving 80k tied to a mid-supply
potential. See the Electrical Characteristics table for the
REF pin’s specified input voltage range.
Differential sampling of the OUT pin with respect the REF
pin provides the best noise immunity. Measurements of
the output voltage made differentially with respect to the
REF pin will provide the highest power supply and common mode rejection. Otherwise, power supply or GND pin
disturbances are divided by the REF pin’s voltage divider
and appear directly at the noninverting input of the transresistance amplifier AO and are not rejected.
If not driven by a low impedance (<100Ω), the REF pin
should be filtered with at least 1nF of capacitance to a
low impedance, low noise ground plane. This external
capacitance will also provide a charge reservoir during
high frequency sampling of the REF pin by ADC inputs
attached to this pin.

Applications Information
Shutdown Capability
If SHDN (Pin 8) is driven to within 0.5V of GND, the LT1999
is placed into a low power shutdown state in which the
part will draw about 3μA from the V+ supply. The input
pins (+IN and –IN) will draw approximately 1nA if biased
within the range of 0V to 80V (with no differential voltage
applied). If the input pins are pulled below the GND pin,
each input appears as a diode tied to GND in series with
approximately 4k of resistance. The REF pin appears as
approximately 0.4MΩ tied to a mid-supply potential. The
output appears as reverse biased diodes tied between the
output to either V+ or GND pins.
EMI Filtering and Layout Practices
An internal 1st order differential lowpass noise/EMI suppression filter with a –3dB bandwidth of 10MHz (approximately 5× the LT1999’s –3dB bandwidth) is included to
help improve the LT1999’s EMI susceptibility and to assist
with the rejection of high frequency signals beyond the
bandwidth of the LT1999 that may introduce errors. The
pole is set by the following equation:
ffilt = 1/(π•(R+IN + R–IN)•CF) ≈ 10MHz
Both the resistors and capacitors have a ±15% variation
so the pole can vary by approximately ±30% over manufacturing process and temperature variations.
The layout for lowest EMI/noise susceptibility is achieved
by keeping short direct connections and minimizing loop
areas (see Figure 4). If the user-supplied sense resistor
cannot be placed in close proximity to the LT1999, the
surface area of the loop comprising connections of +IN
to RSENSE and back to –IN should be minimized. This
requires routing PCB traces connecting +IN to RSENSE
and –IN to RSENSE adjacent with one another with minimal
separation. The metal traces connecting +IN to the sense
resistor and –IN to the sense resistor should match and
use the same trace width.
Bypassing the V+ pin to the GND pin with a 0.1µF capacitor
with short wiring connection is recommended.

Applications Information
The REF pin should be either driven by a low source impedance (<100Ω) or should be bypassed with at least 1nF
to a low impedance, low noise, signal ground plane (see
Figure 4). Larger bypass capacitors on both V+ pins, and
the REF pin, will extend enhanced AC CMRR, and PSRR
performance to lower frequencies. Bypassing the REF pin
to a quiet ground plane filters the V+ pin or GND pin noise
that is sensed by the REF pin voltage divider and applied
to the noninverting input of output amplifier AO. Any common I•R drops generated by pulsating ground currents in
common with the REF pin filter capacitor can compromise
the filtering performance and should be avoided.
If the SHDN pin is not driven and is left floating, routing
a PCB trace connecting Pins 1 and 8 under the part will
act as a shield, and will help limit edge coupling from the
inputs (Pins 2 and 3) to the SHDN pin. Periodic pulses on
the inputs with fast edges may glitch the high impedance
SHDN pin, periodically putting the part into low power
shutdown. Additional precaution against this may be taken
by adding an optional small (~10pF) capacitor may be tied
between V+ (Pin 1) and Pin 8.
Finally, when connecting the LT1999 inputs to the sense
resistor, it is important to use good Kelvin sensing practices
(sensing the resistor in a way that excludes PCB trace
I•R voltage drops). For sense resistors less than 1Ω, one
might consider using a 4-wire sense resistor to sense the
resistive element accurately.
Selection of the Current Sense Resistor
The external sense resistor selection presents a delicate
trade-off between power dissipation in the resistor and
current measurement accuracy.
In high current applications, the user may want to minimize the power dissipated in the sense resistor. The sense
resistor current will create heat and voltage loss, degrading
efficiency. As a result, the sense resistor should be as small
as possible while still providing adequate dynamic range
required by the measurement. The dynamic range is the
ratio between the maximum accurately produced signal
generated by the voltage across the sense resistor, and
the minimum accurately reproduced signal. The minimum
accurately reproduced signal is primarily dictated by the
voltage offset of the LT1999. The maximum accurately
reproduced signal is dictated by the output swing of the
LT1999.
Thus the dynamic range for the LT1999 can be thought of
the maximum sense voltage divided by the input referred
voltage offset or:
Dynamic Range =
∆VOUT(MAX)
GAIN • VOSI
The above equation tells us that the dynamic range is
inversely proportional to the gain of the LT1999. Thus,
if accuracy is of greater importance than efficiency or
power loss, the LT1999-10 used with the highest valued
sense resistor possible is recommended. If efficiency,
heat generated, and power loss in the resistive shunt is
the primary concern, the LT1999-50 and the lowest value
sense resistor possible is recommended. The LT1999-20
is available for applications somewhere in between these
two extremes.

Applications Information
Fuse Monitor
The inputs can be overdriven without fear of damaging
the LT1999. This makes the LT1999 ideal for monitoring
fuses if either +IN or –IN are shorted to ground while the
other is at the full common mode supply voltage (see
Figure 5). If the fuse in Figure 5 opens with the +IN tied
to the positive supply, the load will pull –IN to GND. The
output will be forced to the positive V+ supply rail. If it is
desired that the output be near ground if the fuse opens,
it is a simple matter of swapping the inputs. Precautions
should be followed: First, when the inputs are stressed
differentially due to the fuse blowing open, a large voltage
drop will be placed across the +IN to –IN pins, dissipating

should be taken to prevent junction temperatures from
exceeding the Absolute Maximum ratings (see Note 3 in the
Electrical Characteristics section). Secondly, if the load is
inductive, and the fuse blows open without a clamp diode,
energy stored in the inductive load will be dissipated in
the LT1999, which could cause damage. A simple steering
diode as shown in Figure 5 will prevent this from happening, and will protect the LT1999 from damage.

Typical Applications
Solenoid Current Monitor
Bidirectional PWM Motor Monitor
The solenoid of Figure 7 consists of a coil of wire in an
iron case with permeable plunger that acts as a movable
element. When the MOSFET turns on, the diode is reversed
biased off, and current flows through RSENSE to actuate
the solenoid. If the MOSFET is turned off, the current
in the MOSFET is interrupted, but the energy stored in
the solenoid causes the diode to turn on and current to
freewheel in the loop consisting of the diode, RSENSE and
the solenoid.
Pulse width modulation is commonly used to efficiently
vary the average voltage applied across a DC motor. The
H-bridge topology of Figure 9 allows full 4-quadrant control:
clockwise control, counter-clockwise control, clockwise
regeneration, and counter-clockwise regeneration. The
LT1999 in conjunction with a non-inductive current shunt
is used to monitor currents in the rotor. The LT1999 can
be used to detect stuck rotors, provide detection of overcurrent conditions in general, or provide current mode
feedback control.
Figure 7 shows the LT1999 monitoring currents in a
ground referenced solenoid used when the coil is hard
tied to the case, and is tied to ground. Figure 8 shows a
supply referenced solenoid whose coil is insulated from
the case. The LT1999 will interface equally well to either
of these two configurations.
