ISL28005, ISL28006 Unidirectional Current Sense Amplifiers

2023-05-11
●This application note introduces the ISL28005 and ISL28006 family of highly integrated current sense amplifiers that can drastically simplify the design of complex current monitoring circuits. The application note explains the device internal two-amp topology with ground-sensing diagnostic features, discusses which gain to use in what type of applications, and provides an example of an optional transient protection scheme.
●Introduction
■The ISL28005 and ISL28006 are ground-sensing current sense amplifiers that amplify millivolt current signals developed across sub-1Ω sense resistors. The simplest type of current sense amplifiers use single stage op amp circuits that take their power from the same voltage source that generates the current to be measured. These are realized using an op amp and a handful of external components to condition the amplifier to requirements of the application. As long as the measured current signal remains within the common mode voltage range of the op amp, these circuits are simple.
■Applications where the amplifier operates from a different power source than the load adds complexity, particularly when the measured current is at voltage levels much higher than the op amp supply voltage. In many cases, an additional amplifier circuit is needed to perform the voltage translation to step-down the current sense signal to match the common mode input range of the current sense amplifier.
■Current sensing in multi-output power supply systems is one application where one or more power supply output voltages must be measured using current sense amplifiers powered from a much lower supply voltage. The ISL2800x family of current sense amplifiers are ideal for these applications because they perform precise current sensing operating from supply voltages as low as 3.3V, while sensing from supply voltages as high as 28V. These current sense amplifiers are very simple, self-contained solutions requiring only an external current sense resistor. The space-saving SOT-23 package and low component count results in very small footprint.
