NCS199 and NCS21x Current Sense Amplifiers

onsemi offers its NCS199 and NCS21x current shunt monitors for current sensing, automotive, telecom, and sensors applications

Image of onsemi's NCS199 and NCS21x Current Sense Amplifiersonsemi's NCS199 and NCS21x devices are voltage output current shunt monitors that measure voltage across shunts at common-mode voltages from -0.3 V to 26 V, independent of supply voltage. Multiple fixed gains are available: 50 V/V, 75 V/V, 100 V/V, 200 V/V, 500 V/V, or 1,000 V/V. The low offset of the zero-draft architecture enables current sensing with maximum drops across the shunt as low as 10 mV full-scale. The devices cab operate from a single 2.7 V to 26 V power supply, drawing a maximum of 100 µA of supply current. All versions are specified over the extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C).
