Low-Cost, UCSP/SOT23, Micropower, High-Side
Current-Sense Amplifier with Voltage Output
General Description
The MAX4372 low-cost, precision, high-side current-
sense amplifier is available in a tiny, space-saving
SOT23-5-pin package. Offered in three gain versions
(T = 20V/V, F = 50V/V, and H = 100V/V), this device
operates from a single 2.7V to 28V supply and con-
sumes only 30µA. It features a voltage output that elimi-
nates the need for gain-setting resistors and is ideal for
today’s notebook computers, cell phones, and other
systems where battery/DC current monitoring is critical.
High-side current monitoring is especially useful in bat-
tery-powered systems since it does not interfere with
the ground path of the battery charger. The input com-
mon-mode range of 0 to 28V is independent of the sup-
ply voltage and ensures that the current-sense
feedback remains viable even when connected to a
2-cell battery pack in deep discharge.
The user can set the full-scale current reading by
choosing the device (T, F, or H) with the desired volt-
age gain and selecting the appropriate external sense
resistor. This capability offers a high level of integration
and flexibility, resulting in a simple and compact cur-
rent-sense solution. For higher bandwidth applications,
refer to the MAX4173T/F/H data sheet.

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 conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
