Transcript
Hello. What you're gonna see here today is an eval board demo video for a high-side shunt current sense amplifier using one of our new products the ISL28634 instrumentation amplifier.
What you see here today in this system, is you have a power supply for the shunt load that we're gonna be measuring.
This is a DC electronic load that will actually be pulling all of the current for the load.
A DMM to measure the output of the instrumentation amplifier. The instrumentation amplifier is powered off a 5V power supply.
The shunt load is, on this board right here using an equivalent shunt of 1mOhm.
To give you a summary of what you're seeing, I have together a block diagram of the system.
We have the DC power supply. I've set it to actually 1.8V.
A DC electronic load that will be consuming all of the current.
A 1mOhm shunt resistor going into our ISL28634 instrumentation amplifier powered at single supply 5V. This instrumentation amplifier is a differential output. It has a 2.5V input reference to center the signal with your differential outputs.
Okay, so for the first thing that you see right here is I'm gonna be putting a very small current through this shunt resistor of 10mA.
And with 10mA of current going through 1mOhm, you would expect an input signal of 10µV to the amplifier. Well, this is a very small signal for any analog signal processing. So if you were to go into an MCU, you would need a very high resolution A to D to be able to measure 10µV. So, normally you would just put this amplifier into a very high gain state. Luckily, this instrumentation amplifier does have programmable gain. It has two gain switches on board where I can toggle the switches to change the gain states.
So if we look at the gain table of this instrumentation amplifier, I am using the ISL28634. And for a case of trying to measure 10mA which develops 10µV across the input, with the in-amp I'm gonna want to set a very high gain setting of 1000. So with 10µV input at a gain of 1000, I would expect 10mV of output. So here, I've set the amplifier gain already to a gain of 1000. You can see at my output, I'm measuring 13mV while sensing 10µV of input voltage off 10mA of shunt current.
Well, one could say there is an error between what's being expected and what's being actually read. Well, one thing you have to remember with any amplifier is the inherent DC VOS of the amplifier. And if you look at the data sheet for this part, you could see for the input stage the amplifier can have up to 5µV of offset. When you put this amplifier into a very high gain state at a gain of 1000, that means you can have up to plus or minus 5mV of DC offset. The output stage offset can be neglected because in a instrumentation amplifier all of the gain is present at the input stage. So, any offset at the output stage is basically overwhelmed by the gain times the input VOS of the amplifier.
So if I were to turn off this load current, you could see what the actual output offset is due to not having any input voltage. So turning off the load current as expected, you can see a DC offset of 3mV. So if you translate that back to the input, this would be 3µV of input offset. And I said earlier, that this amplifier can have up to plus or minus 5µV of offset at room temperature.
Okay. Next, let's go and put some real heavy current through this shunt resistor measurement. At the other end, I'm gonna put up to 10A of current through this shunt. And I'm gonna measure through this 1mOhm shunt resistor. And I'm gonna develop 10mV of input voltage. Since my input signal is much bigger now, I don't need such an aggressive gain otherwise I would saturate the amplifier. So, I'm gonna set the gain of this amp to 100 and I'm gonna expect a 1V output voltage.
Okay, so first, let's set this load generator to 10A of current. Okay, now you can see I'm pulling 10A of load current from my dynamic load and it's going through the shunt and it's going through the 1mOhm shunt. It's gonna develop 10mV of input voltage. Remember that my amplifier is still at a gain of 1000. That is gonna saturate the amplifier. And I wanna set it at a smaller gain. In this case, I'm gonna set it at a gain of 100.
Going back to the table for the programmable gain settings for a gain of 100, the gain setting switch states, I wanna put it in a high Z state. So I'm gonna set this back with a high Z state. And as I said earlier at 10A of current through 1mOhm shunt, I'm gonna develop 10mA of input voltage. Putting it through a gain of 100 of the instrumentation amplifier, I would expect an output voltage of about 1V. And that's what you're seeing here, with 10A of current through the shunt of 1mOhm developing 10mV putting it into a gain of 100, I'm getting 1V output.
So this little video shows you the capability of an instrumentation amplifier being configured in a high-side shunt current sense amplifier. What this application is use for is for people who want to measure current into the low voltage FPGAs, DSPs or ASICs which can consume up to 10A or 100A of current on the high end and sometimes into the 10s or 100s of milliamps at the low end. And if you want to use a very low ohmic value shunt resistor to minimize power loss in your shunt current sensing, you would need to chose an amplifier that has very low input offset and very low noise at the input. And this is what the ISL28634 that I'm using here today offers in an instrumentation amplifier in addition to the programmable gain features so that you don't need any external resistors to dynamically change the gain of the amplifier.
On this little board here just to finish up the video, it is just to give you a better look at it. This is another eval board. This is for a low-side shunt current sense amplifier using just a single amplifier and a differential configuration for low-side current sensing. This is not as accurate or some people prefer to operate in the high side and some people prefer to operate in the low side. This eval board gives you the option of operating in the low-side current sense using a single amp but this gain is fixed. So using your external resistors, you have to fix the gain. The Application Note available for this product is AN1777.
