GENERAL DESCRIPTION The ADM4073 is a low cost, high-side, current-sense amplifier ideal for small portable applications, such as cell phones, notebook computers, PDAs, and other systems where current monitoring is required. The device is available in three different gain models, eliminating the need for gain-setting resistors. Because the ground path is not interrupted, the ADM4073 is particularly useful in rechargeable battery-powered systems, while its wide 1.8 MHz bandwidth makes it suitable for use inside battery-charger control loops. The input common-mode range of 2 V to 28 V is independent of the supply voltage. The voltage on the output pin is determined by the current flowing through the selectable external sense resistor and the gain of the version selected. The operating range is 3 V to 28 V with a typical supply current of 500 A. The ADM4073 is available in a 6-lead SOT-23 package and is specified over the automotive operating temperature range (-40C to +125C). Rev.

ADM4073T Overdrive Response Rev. A | Page 9 of 12 05131-025 VSENSE 45mV/DIV 4V ADM4073 THEORY OF OPERATION The current from the source flows through RSENSE, which generates a voltage drop, VSENSE, across the RS+ and RS- terminals of the sense amplifier. The Input Stage Amplifier A1 regulates its inputs to be equal, thereby shunting a current proportional to VSENSE/RG1 to the output current mirror. This current is then multiplied by a gain factor of b in the output stage current mirror and flows through RGD to generate VOUT. Therefore, VOUT is related to VSENSE by the ratio of R G1 to RGD and the current gain of b. VOUT = AV x VSENSE where: AV = RGD/R G1 x b Av is equal to different voltages depending upon the model of the device. * 20 V/V for ADM4073T. * 50 V/V for ADM4073F. * 100 V/V for ADM4073H. To measure lower currents accurately, use as large a sense resistor as possible to utilize the higher end of the sense voltage range. This reduces the effects of the offset voltage errors in the internal amplifier. When currents are very large, it is important to take the I2R power losses across the sense resistor into account. If the sense resistor's rated power dissipation is not sufficient, its value can drift, giving an inaccurate output voltage or it could fail altogether. This, in turn, causes the voltage across the RS+ and RS- pins to exceed the absolute maximum ratings. If the monitored supply rail has a large amplitude high frequency component, choose a sense resistor with low inductance.

Using PCB Trace for Current Sensing OUTPUT (OUT) AV The output stage of the ADM4073 is a current source driving a pull-down resistance. To ensure optimum accuracy, care must be taken not to load this output externally. To minimize output errors, ensure OUT is connected to a high impedance input stage. If this is not possible, output buffering is recommended.

Functional Block Diagram RSENSE The ADM4073 has the ability to sense a wide variety of currents by selecting a particular sense resistor. Select a suitable output voltage for full-scale current, such as 10 V for 10 A. Then, select a gain model that gives the most efficient use of the sense voltage range (150 mV max). where: RLOAD is the external load applied to OUT. ROUT_INT is the internal output resistance (12 k). In the example above, using the ADM4073H (gain of 100) gives an output voltage of 10 V when the sense voltage is 100 mV. Use the following equation to determine what value of sense resistor gives 100 mV with 10 A flowing through it: RSENSE = 100 mV/10 A RSENSE = 10 m VOUT = (ILOAD x RSENSE) x AV Rev.
