3-decade, load-current sensing circuit

CIRCUIT060031

Overview

This single-supply, low-side, current-sensing solution accurately detects load current between 10 μA and 10 mA. A unique yet simple gain switching network was implemented to accurately measure the three decade load current range.
Features
  • Input: 10 μA to 10 mA
  • Output: 100 mV to 4.9 V
  • Supply:
    • Vcc = 5 V
    • Vee = 0V
    • Vref = 0V
