The LTC6102/LTC6102HVHMS8 are versatile, high voltage, highside current sense amplifiers. Their high supply voltage rating allows their use in many high side applications, while the low drift and offset ensure accuracy across a wide range of operating conditions. The LTC6102-1 is a version of the LTC6102 that includes a low power disable mode to conserve system standby power.
The LTC6102/LTC6102HVHMS8 monitor current via the voltage across an external sense resistor (shunt resistor). Internal circuitry converts input voltage to output current, allowing a small sense signal on a large common mode voltage to be translated to a ground-referred signal. Low DC offset allows the use of very low shunt resistor values and large gain-setting resistors. As a result, power loss in the shunt is reduced.
The wide operating supply and high accuracy make the LTC6102 ideal for a large array of applications, from automotive, to industrial and power management. A maximum input sense voltage of 2V allows a wide range of currents and voltages to be monitored. Fast response makes the LTC6102 the perfect choice for load current warnings and shutoff protection control.
All versions of the LTC6102 are available in 8-lead MSOP and 3mm × 3mm DFN packages.
