Reference Design

A system-level evaluation board that combines ROHM's IC and discrete products. We have already solved not only the characteristics of individual products but also the problems that may occur when combining them to build a system, thus contributing significantly to the reduction of development time for our customers.

REFSENS002
100A shunt resistor and operational amplifier current sense circuit reference design

Summary

Low-side current sensing circuits are used for functions such as current (voltage) control, overcurrent limiting, and remaining battery level detection in the automotive and industrial equipment fields. Low-side current sensing circuits realized with shunt resistors and current-sensing amplifiers are the most common compared to other systems. REFSENS003 is a current sensor reference design of a shunt resistor and current sensing amplifier. We are releasing design data and selling reference boards, so please use them as design references and help reduce design man-hours.

Features

  • The simplest current sense circuit with shunt resistor and operational amplifier (LMR1802G)
  • High power shunt resistor PSR400 2mΩ 4 in parallel
  • Current sense range: up to 100A
  • Thermally designed to keep each component within its absolute maximum rating even at a detected current Iin = 100A and an ambient temperature Ta = 85°C
