These amplifiers are designed for bidirectional (LMP8481-Q1 device) or unidirectional (LMP8480-Q1 device) current applications and accept input signals with common-mode voltage range from 4 V to 76 V with a bandwidth of 270 kHz. Because the operating power supply range overlaps the input common-mode voltage range, the LMP848x device may be powered by the same voltage that is being monitored. This benefit eliminates the need for an intermediate supply voltage to be routed to the point of load where the current is being monitored, resulting in reduced component count and board space. 1 • • • • • • • • • • • • • Qualified for Automotive Applications AEC-Q100 Qualified With the Following Results: – Device Temperature Grade 1: –40°C to +125°C Ambient Operating Temperature – Device HBM ESD Classification Level 2 – Device CDM ESD Classification Level C6 Bidirectional or Unidirectional Sensing Common Mode Voltage Range: 4.0 V to 76 V Supply Voltage Range: 4.5 V to 76 V Fixed Gains: 20, 60, and 100 V/V Gain Accuracy: ±0.1% Offset: ±80 µV Bandwidth (–3 dB): 270 kHz Quiescent Current: < 100 µA Buffered High-Current Output: > 5 mA Input Bias Current: 7 µA PSRR (DC): 122 dB CMRR (DC): 124 dB 8-Pin VSSOP Package The LMP848x-Q1 family consists of fixed gains of 20, 60, and 100 for applications that demand high accuracy over temperature.

The maximum allowable power dissipation PDMAX = (TJ(MAX) –TA)/ θJA or the number given in Absolute Maximum Ratings, whichever is lower. If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, contact the Texas Instruments Sales Office/Distributors for availability and specifications. Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating Conditions is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability. When the input voltage (VIN) at any pin exceeds power supplies (VIN < GND or VIN > VS ), the current at that pin must not exceed 5 mA, and the voltage (VIN) has to be within the Absolute Maximum Ratings for that pin. The 20-mA package input current rating limits the number of pins that can safely exceed the power supplies with current flow to four pins. 7.2 ESD Ratings VALUE V(ESD) (1) (2) Electrostatic discharge Human-body model (HBM), per ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC JS-001 (1) ±2000 Charged-device model (CDM), per JEDEC specification JESD22C101 (2) ±750 UNIT V JEDEC document JEP155 states that 500-V HBM allows safe manufacturing with a standard ESD control process.

Factory testing conditions result in very limited self-heating of the device such that TJ = TA. No specification of parametric performance is indicated in the electrical tables under conditions of internal self-heating where TJ > TA. All limits are specified by testing, design, or statistical analysis. Typical values represent the most likely parametric norm at the time of characterization. Actual typical values can vary over time and also depend on the application and configuration. The typical values are not tested and are not ensured on shipped production material. Offset voltage temperature drift is determined by dividing the change in VOS at the temperature extremes by the total temperature change. Positive bias current corresponds to current flowing into the device. This parameter is specified by design and/or characterization and is not tested in production.

The power supply range is 4.5 V to 76 V, and the common-mode input voltage range is capable of 4.0-V to 76-V operation. The supply voltage and common-mode range are completely independent of each other, which causes the LMP848x supply voltage to be extremely flexible because the LMP848x supply voltage can be greater than, equal to, or less than the load source voltage, and allows the device to be powered from the system supply or the load supply voltage. The LMP8480-Q1 and LMP8481-Q1 supply voltage does not have to be larger than the load source voltage. A 76-V load source voltage with a 5-V supply voltage is perfectly acceptable. 8.1.1 Theory of Operation The LMP8480-Q1 and LMP8481-Q1 are comprised of two main stages. The first stage is a differential input current to voltage converter, followed by a differential voltage amplifier and level-shifting output stage. Also present is an internal 14-V low-dropout regulator (LDO) to power the amplifiers and output stage, as well as a reference divider resistor string to allow the setting of the reference level. As Figure 18 illustrates, the current flowing through RSENSE develops a voltage drop called VSENSE. The voltage across the sense resistor, VSENSE, is then applied to the input RSP and RSN pins of the amplifier. PRODUCT PREVIEW Internally, the voltage on each input pin is converted to a current by the internal precision thin-film input resistors RGP and RGN. A second set of much higher value VCM sense resistors between the inputs provide a sample of the input common-mode voltage for internal use by the differential amplifier. VSENSE is applied to the differential amplifier through RGP and RGN. These resistors change the input voltage to a differential current. The differential amplifier then servos the resistor currents through the MOSFETs to maintain a zero balance across the differential amplifier inputs. With no input signal present, the currents in RGP and RGN are equal. When a signal is applied to VSENSE, the current through RGP and RGN are imbalanced and are no longer equal. The amplifier then servos the MOSFETS to correct this current imbalance, and the extra current required to balance the input currents is then reflected down into the two lower 400-kΩ tail resistors. The difference in the currents into the tail resistors is therefore proportional to the amplitude and polarity of VSENSE. The tail resistors, being larger than the input resistors for the same current, then provide voltage gain by changing the current into a proportionally larger voltage. The gain of the first stage is then set by the tail resistor value divided by RG value. The differential amplifier stage then samples the voltage difference across the two 400-kΩ tail resistors and also applies a further gain-of-five and output level-shifting according to the applied reference voltage (VREF). The resulting output of the amplifier will be equal to the differential input voltage times the gain of the device, plus any voltage value applied to the two VREF pins. The resistor values in the schematic are ideal values for clarity and understanding. Table 1 shows the actual values used that account for parallel combinations and loading. This table can be used for calculating the effects of any additional external resistance. The LMP8480-Q1 is identical to the LMP8481-Q1, except that both the VREF pins are grounded internally.

The value of RSHUNT depends on the application and is a compromise between small-signal accuracy, maximum permissible voltage drop, and allowable power dissipation in the current measurement circuit. The use of a 4-terminal or Kelvin sense resistor is highly recommended; see the Layout Guidelines. For best results, the value of the resistor is calculated from the maximum expected load current ILMAX and the expected maximum output swing VOUTMAX, plus a few percent of headroom. See the Maximum Output Voltage section for details about the maximum output voltage limits. High values of RSENSE provide better accuracy at lower currents by minimizing the effects of amplifier offset. Low values of RSENSE minimize load voltage loss, but at the expense of accuracy at low currents. A compromise between low current accuracy and load circuit losses must generally be made. The maximum VSENSE voltage that must be generated across the RSENSE resistor is shown in Equation 1: VSENSE = VOUTMAX / AV (1) NOTE The maximum VSENSE voltage must be no more than 667 mV. From this maximum VSENSE voltage, the RSENSE value can be calculated from Equation 2: RSENSE = VSENSE / ILMAX (2) Take care not exceed the maximum power dissipation of the resistor. The maximum sense resistor power dissipation is shown in Equation 3: PRSENSE = VSENSE × ILMAX (3) Using a 2-3x minimum safety margin is recommended in selecting the power rating of the resistor. 8.3.3 Using PCB Traces as Sense Resistors While it may be tempting to use a known length of PCB trace resistance as a sense resistor, it is not recommended. The temperature coefficient of copper is typically 3300-4000 ppm/°K, and can vary over PCB process variations and require measurement correction (possibly requiring ambient temperature measurements).

Special low-tempco resistors are available in the 0.1 to 50 ppm range, but at a higher cost. 8.3.4 VREFA and VREFB Pins (LMP8481-Q1 Only) The voltage applied to the VREFA and VREFB pins controls the output zero reference level. Depending on how the pins are configured, the output reference level can be set to GND, or VCC / 2, or external VREF / 2, or the average of two different input references. The reference inputs consist of a pair of divider resistors with equal values to a common summing point, VREF', as shown in Figure 23. Assuming VSENSE is zero, the output is at the same value as VREF'. PRODUCT PREVIEW Figure 23. VREF Input Resistor Network VREF' is the voltage at the resistor tap-point that is directly applied to the output as an offset. With the two VREF inputs tied together, the output zero voltage has a 1:1 ratio relationship with VREF. VOUT = ( (VRSP – VRSN) ×Av ) + VREF’ (4) Where: VREF’ = VREFA = VREFB (Equal Inputs) (5) VREF’ = ( VREFA + VREFB ) / 2 (Different Inputs) (6) or: 8.3.4.1 One-to-One (1:1) Reference Input To directly set the reference level, the two inputs are connected to the external reference voltage. The applied VREF is reflected 1:1 on the output, as shown in Figure 24. Figure 24. Applying 1:1 Direct Reference Voltage 14 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMP8480-Q1 LMP8481-Q1 LMP8480-Q1, LMP8481-Q1 www.ti.com SNVSAL6 – JULY 2016 Feature Description (continued) 8.3.4.2 Setting Output to One-Half VCC or external VREF For mid-range operation, VREFB must be tied to ground and VREFA can be tied to VCC or an external A/D reference voltage. The output is set to one-half the reference voltage. For example, a 5-V reference results in a 2.5-V output zero reference. Figure 25. Applying a Divided Reference Voltage (7) When the reference pins are biased at different voltages, the output is referenced to the average of the two applied voltages. The reference pins must always be driven from clean, stable sources, such as A/D reference lines or clean supply lines. Any noise or drifts on the reference inputs are directly reflected in the output. Take care if the power supply is used as the reference source so as to not introduce supply noise, drift or sags into the measurement. Different resistor divider ratios can be set by adding external resistors in series with the internal 100-kΩ resistors, though the temperature coefficient (tempco) of the external resistors may not tightly track the internal resistors and there are slight errors over temperature. The LMP8480-Q1 is identical to the LMP8481-Q1, except that both the VREF pins are grounded internally. The LMP8481-Q1 can replace the LMP8480-Q1 if both VREF pins are grounded. 8.3.5 Reference Input Voltage Limits (LMP8481-Q1 Only) The maximum voltage on either reference input pin is limited to VCC or 12 V, whichever is less. The average voltage on the two VREF pins, and thus the actual output reference voltage level, is limited to a maximum of 1.5 V below VCC, or 6 V, whichever is less. Beware that supply voltages of less than 7.5 V have a diminishing VREF maximum. Both VREFA and VREFB can both be grounded to provide a ground referenced output (thus functionally duplicating the LMP8480-Q1). Note that there can be a dynamic error in the VREF to output level matching of up to 100 µV/V. Normally this error is not an issue for fixed references, but if the reference voltage is dynamically adjusted during operation, this error must be taken into account during calibration routines. This error varies in both amplitude and polarity partto-part, but the slope is generally linear. 8.3.6 Low-Side Current Sensing The LMP8480-Q1 and LMP8481-Q1 are not recommended for low-side current sensing at ground level. The voltage on either input pin must be a minimum of 4.0 V above the ground pin for proper operation. The output level may not be valid for common-mode voltages below 4 V. This minimum voltage requirement must be taken into consideration for monitoring or feedback applications where the load-supply voltage can dip below 4 V or be switched completely off.

If a resistance is added in series with an input, the gain of that input does not track that of the other input, causing a constant gain error. TI does not recommend using external resistances to alter the gain because external resistors do not have the same thermal matching as the internal thin film resistors. If resistors are purposely added for filtering, resistance must be added equally to both inputs and the user must be aware that the gain changes slightly. See the end of the Theory of Operation section for the internal resistor values. External resistances must be kept below 10 Ω. 8.3.8 Minimum Output Voltage The amplifier output cannot swing to exactly 0 V. There is always a minimum output voltage set by the output transistor saturation and input offset errors. This voltage creates a minimum output swing around the zero current reading resulting from the output saturation. The user must be aware of this output swing when designing any servo loops or data acquisition systems that may assume 0 V = 0 A. If a true zero is required, use the LMP8481Q1 with a VREF set slightly above ground (> 50 mV); see the Swinging Output Below Ground section for a possible solution to this issue. PRODUCT PREVIEW 8.3.9 Swinging Output Below Ground If a negative supply is available, a pulldown resistor can be added from the output to the negative voltage to allow the output to swing a few millivolts below ground. Adding a pulldown resistor allows the ADC to resolve true zero and recover codes that normally are lost to the negative output saturation limit. Figure 26. Output Pulldown Resistor Example A minimum of 50 µA must be sourced (pulled) from the output to a negative voltage. The pulldown resistor can be calculated from: RPD = –VS / 50 µA (8) For example, if a –5-V supply is available, use a pulldown resistor of 5 V / 50 µA = 100 kΩ. Adding this resistor allows the output to swing to approximately 10 mV below ground. This technique can also reduce the maximum positive swing voltage. Do not forget to include the parallel loading effects of the pulldown any output load. Exceeding –100 mV on the output is not recommended. Source currents greater than 100 µA must be avoided to prevent self-heating at high-supply voltages. Pulldown resistor values must not be so low as to heavily load the output during positive output excursions. This mode of operation is not directly specified and is not ensured. 16 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMP8480-Q1 LMP8481-Q1 LMP8480-Q1, LMP8481-Q1 www.ti.com SNVSAL6 – JULY 2016 Feature Description (continued) 8.3.10 Maximum Output Voltage The LMP8481-Q1 has an internal precision 14-V low-dropout regulator that limits the maximum amplifier output swing to approximately 250 mV below VCC or 13.7 V (whichever is less). This regulator effectively clamps the maximum output to slightly less than 13.7 V even with a VCC greater than 14 V; see Typical Application With a Resistive Divider for more information. 8.4 Device Functional Modes 8.4.1 Unidirectional vs Bidirectional Operation Unidirectional operation is where the load current only flows in one direction (VSENSE is always positive). Application examples are PA monitoring, non-inductive load monitoring, and laser or LED drivers. Unidirectional operation allows the output zero reference to be true zero volts on the output. The LMP8480-Q1 is designed for unidirectional applications where the setting of VREF is not required; see the Unidirectional Application With the LMP8480-Q1 for more details. PRODUCT PREVIEW Bidirectional operation is where the load current can flow in both directions (VSENSE can be positive or negative). Application examples are battery-charging or regenerative motor monitoring. The LMP8481-Q1 is designed for bidirectional applications and has a pair of VREF pins to allow the setting of the output zero reference level (VREF); see the Unidirectional Application With the LMP8480-Q1 section for more details.

TI’s customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality. 9.1 Application Information The LMP848x amplifies the voltage developed across a current-sensing resistor when current passes through it. Flexible offset inputs allow adjusting the functionality of the output for multiple configurations, as discussed throughout this section. 9.1.1 Input Common-Mode and Differential Voltage Range The input common-mode range, where common-mode range is defined as the voltage from ground to the voltage on RSP input, must be in the range of 4.0 V to 76 V. Operation below 4.0 V on either input pin introduces severe gain error and nonlinearities. PRODUCT PREVIEW The maximum differential voltage (defined as the voltage difference between RSP and RSN) must be 667 mV or less. The theoretical maximum input is 700 mV (14 V / 20). Taking the inputs below 4 V does not damage the device, but the output conditions during this time are not predictable and are not ensured. If the load voltage (Vcm) is expected to fall below 4 V as part of normal operation, preparations must be made for invalid output levels during this time. 9.2 Typical Applications 9.2.1 Unidirectional Application With the LMP8480-Q1 Copyright © 2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Figure 27.

This capacitor must be placed as close as possible to the supply pins. In some cases, an additional 10-μF bypass capacitor can further reduce the supply noise. Do not forget that these bypass capacitors must be rated for the full supply and load source voltage. TI recommends that the working voltage of the capacitor (WVDC) be at least two times the maximum expected circuit voltage. 11 Layout 11.1 Layout Guidelines The amplifier inputs must be directly connected to the sense resistor pads using Kelvin or 4-wire connection techniques. The traces must be one continuous piece of copper from the sense resistor pad to the amplifier input pin pad, and ideally on the same copper layer with minimal vias or connectors. These recommendations can be important around the sense resistor if any significant heat gradients are being generated. To minimize noise pickup and thermal errors, the input traces must be treated as a differential signal pair and routed tightly together with a direct path to the input pins. The input traces must be run away from noise sources, such as digital lines, switching supplies or motor drive lines. Remember that these traces can contain high voltage, and must have the appropriate trace routing clearances. Because the sense traces only carry the amplifier bias current (approximately 7 µA at room temperature), the connecting input traces can be thinner, signal level traces. Excessive resistance in the trace must also be avoided. The paths of the traces must be identical, including connectors and vias, so that these errors are equal and cancel. The sense resistor heats up when the load increases. When the resistor heats up, the resistance generally goes up, which causes a change in the readings. The sense resistor must have as much heatsinking as possible to remove this heat through the use of heatsinks or large copper areas coupled to the resistor pads. A reading drifting over time after turn-on can usually be traced back to sense resistor heating. 11.2 Layout Example Figure 32. Kelvin or 4–Wire Connection to the Sense Resistor Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LMP8480-Q1 LMP8481-Q1 21 PRODUCT PREVIEW The traces leading to and from the sense resistor can be significant error sources. With small value sense resistors (< 100 mΩ), any trace resistance shared with the load current can cause significant errors.
