The LT
廬
1787 is a complete micropower precision high
side current sense amplifier. The LT1787 monitors bidi-
rectional currents via the voltage across an external sense
resistor. A current or voltage output depicts the direction
and magnitude of the sense current. The LT1787 delivers
greater than a 12-bit dynamic range with ultralow 40碌V
input offset voltage compared to a typical 250mV full-
scale input voltage. A fixed gain of 8 is set by onboard
precision resistors. Input signal filtering is easily imple-
mented with a capacitor between the FIL
鈥?/div>
and FIL
+
pins.
The LT1787HV operates from 2.5V to 60V total supply
voltage and the LT1787 operates from 2.5V to 36V total
supply voltage. Both versions have a PSRR in excess of
120dB. The LT1787/LT1787HV draw only 60碌A(chǔ) and are
available in 8-lead SO and MSOP packages.
