The MAX4172ESA+T is a precision, high-side current sense amplifier housed in an 8-pin NSOIC package. It is designed for high side power line monitoring, which is particularly useful in battery-powered systems as it does not interfere with the ground path of the battery charger. With a wide input common mode voltage range from 0V to 32V, independent of supply voltage, it ensures reliable current sensing even when connected to a deeply discharged battery. The device operates with an external sense resistor, allowing flexible load current monitoring and providing a current output that can be converted to a ground-referenced voltage with a single resistor. It features low power consumption, with a maximum supply current of 1.6mA, and supports various applications such as battery chargers, smart battery packs, energy management systems, sensing and instrumentation, motor control, portable devices, and signal processing. The MAX4172 operates over a supply voltage range of 3V to 32V, with an operating temperature range from -40°C to 85°C, and offers accuracy of ±0.5% over temperature. Its electrical characteristics include bandwidths of 800kHz at 100mV sense voltage and 200kHz at 6.25mV sense voltage, a typical input offset voltage of 100mV, and a bias current of 50µA when VRS+ exceeds 2V. It is suitable for applications requiring high side current sensing with minimal board space.
