DESCRIPTION

LT6109-1/LT6109-2

High Side Current Sense

Amplifiers with Reference

and Comparators

Demonstration circuit 1659A features the LT

6109, a high

side current sense amplifier with two comparators and a

400mV reference.

The demo board circuit amplifies the voltage across an

on-board current sense resistor, to provide a precision

unipolar voltage output that is proportional to the sensed

current. The board has two on-board comparators with

latching outputs and an integrated 400mV reference that

sets the threshold for the comparators. There are two ver-

sions of this demonstration circuit, A and B, depending on

which version of the LT6109 is installed. The DC1659A-A

(LT6109-1) has an inverting and a noninverting compara-

tor input available, while the DC1659A-B (LT6109-2) has

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

two inverting inputs available. Both current sense gain

and current fault limits are set by on board resistors and

are the same for both boards. The gain is set at 100V/V

and the comparators are set to trip at current thresholds

of 50mA and 300mA.

The key performance specifications are listed in the table

below.

(TA= 25°C)

TheLT6109 operates by amplifying the voltage drop across

a sense resistor that is in series with the load. The sense

inputs of the amplifier differentially measure the sense

resistor voltage drop to control an internal variable current

source that allows translation of the input voltage level to

a level referenced to the GND. The circuit gain is set by

resistance into a network of three resistors. The DC1659

is shipped with a 100mΩ sense resistor, a gain of 100 and

current fault thresholds of 50mA and 300mA.

QUICK START PROCEDURE

Figure 1. Test Setup

The DC1659A provides a simple way to evaluate the

performance of the LT6109. Refer to Figure1 for proper

measurement equipment setup and follow the procedure

below:

1. With the power off, connect the power supply positive

to IN and the common to GND. With default board

settings the supply can range from 3.3V to 60V. If the

supply does not have an accurate current readout, a

DMM may be connected in series with the supply as

shown in Figure1.

2. Connect a DMM or oscilloscope to the IOUT with the

common connection connected to ground.

3. Connect a load to the demo boards OUT terminal (posi-

tive) and ground. The load may be a power resistor,

active load instrument or a circuit of interest.

4. Turn on the power supply. The comparators start in an

unknown state and must be reset. This can be done

by pressing the reset button. With the load shown in

Figure 1 the comparator outputs should be:

PART COUT1 COUT2

DC1659A-A LT6109-1 High High

DC1659A-B LT6109-2 High Low

5. Measure the output voltage and confirm it corresponds

to the load current. VIOUT = 10 • ILOAD for the factory

installed resistors.

6. If able, sweep load current from 0mA to 300mA to verify

the operation of the comparators. The LED will turn on

when the comparator output has latched low. Use the

reset circuitry to reset comparator output.

OPERATION

Current Sense Gain

The gain of the LT6109 current sense amplifier is set

by the ratio of ROUT and RIN resistors. In the demo

circuit this means that the gain is set by the ratio of

(R1 + R2 + R3)/R10. The gain error is primarily controlled

by the precision of the resistors used. The factory resis-

tors are a 1% tolerance which will dominate the gain

error. To reduce system gain error, the resistors can be

replaced with 0.1% resistors.

LED Indicators

The LEDs indicate the state of the comparator outputs.

When the LED is on, the comparator is latched low. When

the LED is off, the comparator output is high. When the

comparatoroutputislatchedlow,theLT6109 must be reset

to refresh the comparator output and to turn off the LEDs.

Jumper Summary

Reset(JP1): The Reset jumper has two settings for manual

or auto mode. In manual mode, the user must press the

reset button to reset the latching comparators. In auto

mode, the comparators will be continuously reset every

10 seconds. The factory default setting is manual mode.

Optional Settings

1. For supply voltages below 3.3V, remove R20 and install

R21 (0Ω jumper). When R21 is installed, the supply

voltage must stay between 2.7V to 6V to prevent dam-

aging the TimerBlox

circuitry that is used to reset the

comparator outputs.

2. To power the LT6109 from a supply separate from the

load, remove R22 and connect the power supply to V+

turret.

3. There are a number of optional components that (not

installed) allow the DC1659 to be tailored to a specific

application:

A) To free comparator input INC1, remove R2 and R3

and install R19.

B) To free comparator input INC2, remove R1 and R2

and install R18.

C) To add filtering to the amplifier output, install C6.

4. R9 can be set to the same value as R10 to reduce error

caused by input bias current. Typically for values of

R10 (less than 1k) and R9 can be omitted as the error

is negligible.
