Description

Demonstration Circuit 1116 is a Dual, High Voltage, High Side Current Sense Amplifier featuring the LTC6103. This demo board provides two independent circuits that each amplify a current-sense resistor voltage-drop, and provide precision uni-polar output voltages proportional to the respective load currents. The demo circuit includes scaling resistors that program the gain of the circuits to 25V/V. Each section of the LTC6103 is powered from the same supply that the sense resistor is connected to and provides a ground referenced output. Each section of the LTC6103 can independently perform current measurements on supplies ranging from 4V to 60V. Since the output voltages are developed as controlled currents through load resistances, ground-loop errors can be eliminated by simply locating the load resistors at the destination point (subsequent signal processing such as A/D conversion). Remote loading can be evaluated by simply removing the on board load resistors (R3 and R6). The key performance characteristics of the LTC6103 and DC1116 are show n in the Performance Summary below .
