TS1101-25: Gain = 25V/V
TS1101-50: Gain = 50V/V
TS1101-100: Gain = 100V/V
TS1101-200: Gain = 200V/V
♦ 6-Lead SOT23 Packaging
The bi-directional, voltage-output TS1101 current-
sense amplifiers are the lowest-power and most
accurate current-sense amplifiers available today.
Consuming a very low 1μA supply current, the
TS1101 high-side current-sense amplifiers exhibit a
100-µV (max) V
OS
and a 0.6% (max) gain error, both
specifications optimized for any precision current
measurement. For all high-side bidirectional current-
sensing applications, the TS1101s are self-powered
and feature a wide input common-mode voltage
range from 2V to 27V. A SIGN comparator digital
output is also provided that indicates the direction of
current flow depending on the external connections to
the TS1101’s RS+ and RS- input terminals.
The SOT23 package makes the TS1101 an ideal
choice for pcb-area-critical, supply-current-conscious,
high-accuracy current-sense applications in all
battery-powered and portable instruments.
All TS1101s are specified for operation over the
-40°C to +105°C extended temperature range.

Electrical and thermal stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These
are stress ratings only and functional operation of the device at these or any other condition beyond those indicated in the operational sections
of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to any absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability and
lifetime.

Note 5:
Gain error applies to current flow in either direction and is calculated by applying two values for V
SENSE
and then
calculating the error of the actual slope vs. the ideal transfer characteristic:
For GAIN = 25, the applied V
SENSE
is 20mV and 120mV.
For GAIN = 50, the applied V
SENSE
is 10mV and 60mV.
For GAIN = 100, the applied V
SENSE
is 5mV and 30mV.
For GAIN = 200, the applied V
SENSE
is 2.5mV and 15mV.
Note 6:
The device is stable for any capacitive load at V
OUT
.
Note 7:
V
OH
is the voltage from V
RS-
to V
OUT
with V
SENSE
= 3.6V/GAIN.
