HV7802 High Side Current Monitor

8V to 450V, Congurable Output Features

Supply voltage 8V to 450V Congurable as a current or voltage output device Maximum sense amplier offset of 15mV Max VSENSE of 500mV Fast rise and fall times, from 700ns to 2.0s Maximum quiescent current of 50A

General Description
The HV7802 high side current monitor IC contains a transconductance amplier which translates a high side current measurement voltage into an output current with resistor programmable transconductance gain. An optional second resistor transforms this output current into an output voltage with an overall voltage gain set by the ratio of the two resistors. The measurement voltage typically originates at a current sense resistor, which is located in a high side circuit, for example a circuit not directly associated with ground. This monitor IC features a very wide input voltage range, congurable gain, small size, low component count, low power consumption, ease of use, and low cost. Ofine applications, battery, and portable applications can be served equally well due to the wide input voltage range and the low quiescent current.

Block Diagram
VSENSE ISENSE

The current to be measured does not ow in a circuit associated with ground. The measurement at ground level can lead to ambiguity due to changes in the grounding arrangement during eld use. The introduction of a sense resistor in the system ground is undesirable due to issues with safety, EMI, or signal degradation caused by common impedance coupling.

R SENSE RP (Optional, see text) LOAD

RA IN RA

Principle of Operation
Bias Circuits

The operational amplier forces the voltage across RA to track VSENSE, therefore, VRA = VSENSE. Transconductance gain is equal to (1/RA). IRA ows from the OUT pin to low side circuitry. Current to voltage conversion can be accomplished by a resistor, RB, as shown in the block diagram, with a transimpedance gain equal to RB. Typically we would like to exploit the full current capability of the transimpedance amplier. A RA of 5k will provide this current, assuming a full scale sense voltage of 500mV and a full scale sense current of 100A. In a voltage output application, the output resistor RB is determined by the desired overall voltage gain of (RB / RA). For example, a RB of 10k results in a voltage gain of two.

Application Information
General
The HV7802 high side current monitor IC features accurate current sensing, small size, low component count, low power consumption, exceptional input voltage range, ease of use and low cost. Typical use is measurement of line and load current for purpose of overcurrent protection, metering and current regulation. High side current sensing, as opposed to ground referenced or low side current sensing, is desirable or required when:

OUT Pin Loading Effects

Note that the output is not buffered having an output impedance equal to RB. Loading of the output causes voltage gain to drop and rise and fall times to increase. For example, assume a gain of one, using RA = RB = 5k. In this case the load resistance should exceed 5M in order to limit the gain drop to 1 part in 1000. Assuming an output resistance of 5k, a capacitive load of 20pF results in a load pole with a time constant of 100ns, not enough to materially affect the output rise and fall time (about 700ns).

Sense Resistor Considerations
Limit the sense resistor voltage to 500mV during normal operating conditions. Limit the power dissipation in the sense resistor to suit the application; a high sense voltage benets accuracy, but may result in high power dissipation as well. Consider the use of Kelvin connections for applications where considerable voltage drops may occur in the PCB traces. A layout pattern, which minimizes voltage drops across the sense lines is shown below.
+ VSENSE

Transient Protection
Add a protection resistor (RP) in series with the LOAD pin if VSENSE can exceed 5V in positive sense or 600mV in negative sense, whether in steady state or in transient conditions. A large VSENSE may occur during system startup or shutdown when charging and discharging large capacitors. VSENSE may be large due to fault conditions, such as short circuit or a broken or missing sense resistor. An internal 5V Zener diode with a current rating of 10mA protects the sense amplier inputs. The block diagram shows the orientation of this diode. The Zener diode provides clamping at 5V for a positive VSENSE and at 600mV for a negative VSENSE. Limit the Zener current to 10mA under worst case conditions. A 100k resistor limits the maximum Zener diode current to 4.5mA when VSENSE is 450V, whether positive or negative. Note that the protection resistor may affect bandwidth. The resistor forms a RC network with the trace and pin capacitance at the LOAD pin. For example, capacitance of 5pF results in a time constant of 500ns. The protection resistor may cause an offset voltage due to bias current at the LOAD input. A 100k protection resistor could cause an offset of 100V, or 0.2% of full scale, under worst case bias current. Note that bias current is nominally zero since LOAD is a high impedance CMOS input, resulting in zero bias current induced offset voltage.

R SENSE IN LOAD

Choose a low inductance type sense resistor if preservation of bandwidth is important. Kelvin connections help by minimizing the inductive voltage drops as well. The inductive voltage drop may be substantial when operating at high frequency. A trace or component inductance of just 10nH contributes an impedance of 6.2m at 100kHz, which constitutes a 6% error when using a 100m sense resistor.
