Low (microamp), high-side, current-sensing circuit with current-sensing amplifier
CIRCUIT060039
Overview
This circuit demonstrates how to use a current sense amplifier to accurately and robustly measure small micro-amp currents and maximize dynamic range. The following error analysis can be applied to many current sense amplifiers. This design relies on using a precision, low input-bias current sense amplifier and analyzing the dynamic error due to input bias currents on large shunt resistors.
