HIGH-SIDE CURRENT MONITOR
Description
The ZXCT1009 is a high side current sense monitor. Using
this device eliminates the need to disrupt the ground plane
when sensing a load current.
It takes a high side voltage developed across a current shunt
resistor and translates it into a proportional output current. A
user defined output resistor scales the output current into a
ground-referenced voltage.
The wide input voltage range of 20V down to as low as 2.5V
make it suitable for a range of applications. A minimum
operating current of just 4µA, combined with a SOT23
package make it a unique solution for portable battery
equipment. The SM8 device offers an alternative package
option.
