ZXCT1012 Reduced height micro-power current monitor
Description
The ZXCT1012 is a high side current sense monitor.
Using this type of device eliminates the need to disrupt the ground plane when sensing a load current.
The ZXCT1012 takes the
voltage developed across a small value resistor and translates it into a proportional output current.
A user defined output resistor scales the output current into a ground referenced
voltage.
The ZXCT1012 has the accuracy specification of the ZXCT1010 but in TSOT23-5, and TDFN3x3-5.
A minimum operating current of just 3.
5µA, combined with its TSOT23-5 package make it suitable for portable battery equipment where size and current consumption are critical.
