SENSELO (Pin 1): Sense Amplifier Input. This pin must
be tied to the load end of the sense resistor.
LE (Pin 2): Latch Control Pin. When high, the comparator
latch is enabled. With the comparator latch enabled, the
comparator output will latch at a low level once tripped.
When the LE input is low, the comparator latch is disabled
and the comparator functions transparently.
OUTC (Pin 3): Open-Drain Comparator Output. Off-state
voltage may be as high as 60V above V
, regardless of
V
+
used.
V
(Pin 4): Negative Supply Pin. This pin is normally con-
nected to ground.
INC (Pin 5): This is the inverting input of the comparator
.
The other comparator input is internally connected to the
400mV reference.

OUTA (Pin 6): Current Output of the Sense Amplifier. This
pin will source a current that is equal to the sense voltage
divided by the external gain setting resistor, R
IN
.
V
+
(Pin 7): Positive Supply Pin. The V
+
pin can be con-
nected directly to either side of the sense resistor, R
SENSE
.
When V
+
is tied to the load end of the sense resistor, the
SENSEHI pin can go up to 0.2V above V
+
. Supply current
is drawn through this pin.
SENSEHI (Pin 8): Sense Amplifier Input. The internal
sense amplifier will drive SENSEHI to the same potential
as SENSELO. A resistor (typically R
IN
) tied from supply
to SENSEHI sets the output current, I
OUT
= V
SENSE
/R
IN
,
where V
SENSE
is the voltage developed across R
SENSE
.
Exposed Pad (Pin 9, DCB Package Only): V
. The exposed
pad may be left open or connected to device V
. Connect-
ing the exposed pad to a V
plane will improve thermal
management in high voltage applications. The exposed
pad should not be used as the primary connection for V
.
applicaTions inForMaTion
The LT6118 high side current sense amplifier provides
accurate monitoring of currents through an external sense
resistor. The input sense voltage is level-shifted from the
sensed power supply to a ground referenced output and
is amplified by a user-selected gain to the output. The
output voltage is directly proportional to the current flow
-
ing through the sense resistor.
The LT6118 comparator has a threshold set with a built-in
400mV precision reference and has 10mV of hysteresis.
The open-drain output can be easily used to level shift to
digital supplies.
Amplifier Theory of Operation
An internal sense amplifier loop forces SENSEHI to have
the same potential as SENSELO as shown in Figure 2.
