Introduction

The STEVAL-AETKT2V1 evaluation kit implements bidirectional current sense amplifiers by placing a sense resistor either in

the high side or in the low side.

The STEVAL-AETKT2V1 kit consists of a mother board and two different daughter boards for different gain configurations.

TSC21x family implements zero drift technology and is specially designed to accurately measure current by amplifying the

voltage across a shunt resistor connected to its input. The voltage drop (Vsense) is then amplified by an amplifier.

Thanks to the use of thin film resistors, TSC21x offers an extremely precise gain and very high CMRR performance.

Moreover, thanks to the possibility of fixing the output common mode voltage through a reference pin, the TSC21x can be either

used as unidirectional or bidirectional current sensing amplifier.

1.2 Shunt resistance

The STEVAL-AETKT2V1 offers the possibility of soldering a shunt resistance directly on the PCB. The board can

host standard 2512 package size shunts on 4 W footprint optimized for minimal reading error.

You can choose the appropriate shunt package and value for your own application. If the chosen shunt is not

compatible with the footprint, it has be connected outside the evaluation kit.

The selection of the shunt resistor is a tradeoff between dynamic range and power dissipation. Generally, in high

current sensing applications, the focus is to reduce as much as possible the power dissipation (I²R) by choosing a

shunt with the smallest value.

The recommended shunt value is obtained from the following equation:

Rsense =VoutMax − Vol

Gain ⋅ 1+Errorgain

−2⋅ Vio ⋅1

Irange (1)

Where VoutMax is the maximum output voltage usually equal to the device VCC or the ADC connected to the

output, Vol is the output low swing value for the TSC21x family (in this case, it is 30 mV), Gain is the gain of the

selected device (for example, TSC213 has a gain of 50), ERRORgain equals to 1%, Vio represents the input offset

voltage (100 µV can be considered for TSC213), Irange is the actual range to be measured.

Note: It is recommended to take a bit smaller shunt value to have some margin and prevent saturation.

The actual current range is calculated by the following equations:

ImaxPositive =VoutMax − Vref

RSℎunt ⋅ Gain (2)

ImaxNegative =Vref − VoutMin

RSℎunt ⋅ Gain (3)

1.3 Connection

The STEVAL-AETKT2V1 evaluation kit can be connected to the application design via J1 header.

Table 2. J1 pin-out description

J1 pin Description

REF Output or input voltage reference (see Section 1.4 Voltage reference settings)

VCC Supply voltage

GND Ground

OUT TSC21x analog output value

1.4 Voltage reference settings

As the TSC21x family devices can measure current in both directions, some voltage reference has to be provided.

Voltage reference can be generated directly on the STEVAL-AETKT2V1 evaluation kit by a precision op-amp or

by shunt voltage reference. Another option is to use an external reference voltage source.

Refer to the following table for proper jumper settings.

Important: Only one jumper at a time can be placed on the kit.

NA VCC Unidirectional Inverted

REF1 NA Vref generated by op-amp TSB711 (default Vcc/2)(1)

REF2 NA Vref generated by shunt reference TS431 (default 1.24V)(1)
