Product details
Overview
LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an automotive-grade, unidirectional, high-side current-sense amplifier with fixed 60 V/V gain, 4.0–76 V common-mode input range, ±80 µV offset, and 270 kHz bandwidth-designed for precision battery current monitoring in 12 V/48 V vehicle subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 datasheet, LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 pinout, LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 application, or LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package-validated pin functions, real-world use-value mapping, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and application-level distinctions.
Technical Context
The LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 implements a two-stage architecture: first, a precision thin-film resistor-based current-to-voltage conversion stage referenced to internal VCM sense resistors; second, a differential amplifier with ×5 gain and output level-shifting driven by an internal 14-V LDO regulator. Its unidirectional operation fixes both REFA and REFB pins internally to GND, eliminating external reference configuration.
Unlike the bidirectional LMP8481-Q1 family, the LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 provides zero-output at zero-sense voltage without external biasing, supports supply voltages (4.5–76 V) independent of monitored rail voltage, and achieves 124 dB DC CMRR and 122 dB PSRR via matched internal resistor networks and servo-controlled MOSFET current balancing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | 60 V/V (fixed, unidirectional); enables accurate low-current sensing with 16.7 mV full-scale VSENSE at 1 A through 16.7 mΩ shunt. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±80 µV (25°C); allows use of smaller sense resistors while maintaining <1% error at 100 mA load current. |
| Common-Mode Range | 4.0 V to 76 V; supports direct connection to 12 V, 24 V, and 48 V automotive rails without level-shifting. |
| Bandwidth | 270 kHz (–3 dB); captures fast transient currents in motor control and DC-DC converter feedback loops. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 76 V; permits single-supply operation powered directly from monitored bus, reducing auxiliary supply count. |
| Quiescent Current | < 100 µA; minimizes parasitic drain in always-on battery monitoring circuits. |
| Output Drive | > 5 mA sourcing/sinking; interfaces directly with 10 kΩ ADC inputs or comparator thresholds without buffering. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin VSSOP (DGK), 3.00 mm × 3.00 mm body size, exposed thermal pad (not electrically connected), RoHS-compliant, automotive-qualified.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RSP | Positive current-sense input | Connects to high-side of shunt resistor; accepts up to 76 V common-mode voltage with 7 µA input bias current. |
| VCC | Positive supply voltage | Supplies internal LDO and amplifier stages; overlaps input common-mode range, enabling bus-powered operation. |
| NC | No connection | Pins 3, 6, and 7 are unconnected die pads-must be left floating or grounded per layout guidelines; no internal function. |
| GND | Analog ground reference | Return path for internal circuitry and output stage; requires dedicated low-impedance PCB plane adjacent to RSP/RSN traces. |
| RSN | Negative current-sense input | Connects to low-side of shunt resistor; differential pair with RSP defines VSENSE = VRSP – VRSN. |
| VOUT | Amplified output | Buffered, rail-to-rail capable output delivering 60×(VRSP – VRSN); minimum 3 mV and maximum 500 mV headroom from rails. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for –40°C to +125°C ambient operation with HBM ±2 kV and CDM ±750 V ESD robustness-suitable for under-hood BMS modules. |
| Fixed 60 V/V gain accuracy | ±0.6% (25°C), ±0.8% (–40°C to +125°C); eliminates calibration overhead in production test for factory-trimmed systems. |
| High DC CMRR and PSRR | 124 dB CMRR and 122 dB PSRR at DC; rejects noise from switching regulators and shared ground returns in powertrain ECUs. |
| Low input bias current | 7 µA (max at 76 V); reduces voltage error across high-value shunts used in ultra-low-power sleep-mode monitoring. |
| Fast settling time | 20 µs to 1% final value; supports closed-loop current control in inverters with >20 kHz PWM frequencies. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side current-sense amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4080ASA+T | Same 8-pin SOIC package but 20 V/V, 60 V/V, or 100 V/V variants; ±200 µV offset (vs. ±80 µV); 250 kHz bandwidth (vs. 270 kHz). | Requires external decoupling and layout optimization for automotive EMI; lacks AEC-Q100 qualification-used in industrial, not automotive, designs. | Select MAX4080ASA+T only if cost sensitivity outweighs offset and qualification requirements; verify ESD robustness for vehicle deployment. |
| LMP8480TQDGKRQ1 | Same VSSOP-8 package and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 rating, but fixed 20 V/V gain; ±900 µV max offset over temperature (vs. ±900 µV for LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1). | Optimized for higher-current applications (>3 A) where larger shunt voltage drop is acceptable; lower gain reduces noise gain on ADC front-end. | Choose LMP8480TQDGKRQ1 when sensing ≥3 A with ≥50 mΩ shunt; retain LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 for sub-ampere precision in BMS or BCM diagnostics. |
Compared with MAX4080ASA+T, LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 delivers tighter offset, higher bandwidth, and automotive qualification-critical for functional safety compliance. Against LMP8480TQDGKRQ1, it trades gain for improved low-current resolution, making it preferable for battery state-of-charge estimation and sleep-mode leakage detection.

FAQ
What is the exact gain setting and polarity type of the LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1?
The LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 is a unidirectional current-sense amplifier with a factory-trimmed fixed gain of 60 V/V. It outputs a positive voltage proportional to current flow from RSP to RSN, with zero output at zero sense voltage-no external reference required due to internally grounded REFA/REFB pins.
Does the LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 require external reference components or biasing?
No. The LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 internally grounds both REFA and REFB pins, eliminating all external reference circuitry. This distinguishes it from the LMP8481-Q1 family and simplifies design for unidirectional applications such as battery discharge monitoring where output zero must align with no-current condition.
What is the maximum common-mode voltage the LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 can handle, and how does it relate to supply voltage?
The LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 supports a common-mode input voltage range of 4.0 V to 76 V, fully independent of its 4.5 V to 76 V supply voltage range. This allows the device to be powered directly from the same rail it monitors-e.g., using a 12 V battery to power the IC while measuring current on that same 12 V line-reducing system component count.
How does the LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 achieve high DC CMRR of 124 dB?
The LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 achieves 124 dB DC CMRR through precision-matched internal thin-film input resistors (RGP/RGN) and VCM-sense resistors, combined with a servo-controlled differential amplifier architecture that actively balances input currents. This topology rejects common-mode voltage variations without relying on external trimming or layout symmetry.
Is the LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 pin-compatible with any legacy current-sense amplifiers?
Yes-the LMP8480ASQDGKRQ1 is a pin-compatible upgrade to the MAX4080 series (e.g., MAX4080ASA+T) in SOIC-8 packages, and shares identical pinout with other LMP848x-Q1 variants in VSSOP-8 (DGK). However, note that MAX4080 lacks AEC-Q100 qualification and has higher offset; migration requires validation of automotive environmental compliance.
