Current sense amplifier operates from -55°C to 150°C
Linear Technology announces the LT6107, a MP-grade high side current
sense amplifier specified for operation from –55°C to
150°C. As an MP-grade device, the LT6107 is guaranteed and tested
across the specified temperature range and is intended to meet the
demands of automotive, military and industrial, and other harsh
environment applications.
The LT6107 operates with common mode voltages up to 36V. The offset
voltage is guaranteed to be less than 400uV over temperature and the
LT6107 can accept a full-scale differential input of 500mV, resulting
in a minimum dynamic range of 1250:1. Over the full operating
temperature range, input bias current is guaranteed to be no more than
130nA, essentially eliminating bias current as a source of error. For
handling fault conditions, the LT6107 can withstand common mode
voltages up to 44V and can respond to sudden signal changes within
3.5usec.
The LT6107 is versatile and simple to use. Two external resistors set
the amplifier gain, providing control of gain accuracy and drift, power
consumption, response time and input/output impedance. The LT6107 is
also pin-compatible with Linear Technology's LT6106, LTC6101 and
LTC6101HV, providing interchangeable current sense amplifiers with
specific performance advantages.
"The LT6107 offers a simple high side current sense solution for
extremely challenging environments," stated Mike Kultgen, Design
Manager for Linear Technology.
