GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Aeroflex Plainview PCS5038 contains eight precision current sources that can be set with a single external
resistor connected to the R_Iset pin. The current source was designed for thermistor current monitor and
resistive sensor applications.
The precision current source outputs can be set to source from 100uA to 2mA each. Two-to-eight of the current
source outputs can be paralleled to produce multiple current source outputs levels. The output current of each
current source will follow the current set by the external resistor and the precision voltage at the R_Iset pin. The
output current precision is a function of the voltage at the R_Iset pin and the chosen resistor’s characteristics.
The comparator inputs will monitor the current source output voltage, with a trip point set by an external
reference voltage or the internal reference voltage.
A precision internal 2.0V reference is provided. The comparators are arranged as two banks of four with
separate Enable and voltage reference inputs. A Current Source Enable is also provided. See Figure 1. All
Enable inputs are active high. All comparators are inverting with their outputs pulled-up internally by a nominal
10k ohm resistor. Any unused current source outputs can be left open circuit without affecting other I/O’s. Each
current source output will track the other seven current source outputs as long as the voltage generated by the
resistor sensor does not exceed 2.0V below the supply voltage (V
CC
-2.0V). Higher sensor voltages can be
accomodated by increasing the supply voltage.

One primary application for the Aeroflex PCS5038, as shown in Figure 3 below, would
be to monitor the temperature of different electronic bay areas in a Satellite, and report when
any bay area has exceeded a maximum temperature limit.
Thermistors with defined temperature characteristics are used as the sensors, and by
providing a constant stable current to the external Thermistor (Temp T1 to Temp T8), an
accurate analog voltage of a specific temperature trip point can be established. The
comparator voltage reference input can be tailored to set the trip point for the characteristic of
the particular thermistor sensor used. The on-board precision 2 Volt reference can be used
directly for voltages of 2 Volts or less, or can be scaled with an external operational amplifier
to provide a voltage between 2 Volts and the maximum input of 3.0 Volts, for a +5v supply.
Various temperature trip points could be accomplished by using thermistors with different
temperature characteristics.
