The FAN4010IL6X is a high-side current sensor amplifier designed for battery-powered systems. Using the FAN4010IL6X for high-side power-line monitoring does not interfere with the battery charger’s ground path. The FAN4010IL6X is designed for portable PCs, cellular phones, and other portable systems where battery/DC power-line monitoring is critical.To provide a high level of flexibility, the FAN4010IL6X functions with an external sense resistor to set the range of load current to be monitored. It has a current output that can be converted to a ground-referred voltage with a single resistor, accommodating a wide range of battery voltages and currents. The FAN4010IL6X features allow it to be used for gas gauging as well as uni-directional or bi-directional current monitoring.
