Description

The ZXCT1022 is a precision high-side current sense monitor. Using this type of device eliminates the need to disrupt the ground plane when sensing a load current.

The ZXCT1022 provides a fixed gain of 100 for applications where minimal sense voltage is required.

The very low offset voltage enables a typical accuracy of 3 for sense voltages of only 10mV, giving better tolerances for small sense resistors necessary at higher currents.
