LT1787/LT1787HV Precision, High Side Current Sense Amplifiers UFEATURESDESCRIPTIO ■ Input Offset Voltage: 75 µ V (Max) The LT®1787 is a complete micropower precision high ■ 60V Supply Operation (LT1787HV) side current sense amplifier. The LT1787 monitors bidi- ■ 12-Bit Dynamic Range rectional currents via the voltage across an external sense ■ Operating Current: 60µA resistor. A current or voltage output indicates the direction ■ User-Selectable External Sense Resistor and magnitude of the sense current. The LT1787 delivers ■ Bidirectional High Side Current Sensing greater than a 12-bit dynamic range with ultralow 40µV ■ Unidirectional or Bidirectional Output input offset voltage compared to a typical 250mV full- ■ Input Noise Filtering scale input voltage. A fixed gain of 8 is set by onboard ■ –40°C to 125°C Operating Temperature Range precision resistors. Input signal filtering is easily imple- ■ Available in 8-Lead SO and MSOP Packages mented with a capacitor between the FIL– and FIL+ pins. The LT1787HV operates from 2.5V to 60V total supply U voltage and the LT1787 operates from 2.5V to 36V total APPLICATIO S supply voltage. Both versions have a PSRR in excess of ■ 120dB. The LT1787/LT1787HV draw only 60 Battery Monitoring µA and are ■ available in 8-lead SO and MSOP packages.
