Product details
Overview
LMP8480MME-T/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a unidirectional, high-side current sense amplifier with 20V/V fixed gain, 4.0–76V common-mode input range, ±80µV offset, 270kHz bandwidth, and VSSOP-8 package-designed for precision vehicle battery monitoring and telecom power rail sensing where supply voltage may match or exceed load voltage.
For engineers reviewing the LMP8480MME-T/NOPB datasheet, LMP8480MME-T/NOPB pinout, LMP8480MME-T/NOPB application, or LMP8480MME-T/NOPB equivalent, this page delivers verified pin functions, real-world use cases in automotive and energy systems, confirmed gain accuracy (±0.1% typ), thermal derating data (RθJA = 185°C/W), and validated alternatives with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The LMP8480MME-T/NOPB implements a two-stage architecture: first, a precision thin-film resistor-based voltage-to-current conversion of differential sense voltage (VSENSE), followed by a differential amplifier with internal 14V LDO regulation and level-shifting output stage. Its input stage uses matched RGP/RGN resistors (98.38kΩ each for 20× gain) and VCM-sense resistors to enable accurate operation across 4.0–76V common-mode while powered from 4.5–76V supply-fully independent of load voltage.
This architecture enables true single-supply high-side sensing without intermediate rails: the device can operate with VCC = 5V while monitoring a 76V load, eliminating auxiliary supplies and reducing BOM count. Internal grounding of both VREF pins confirms its unidirectional-only operation and distinguishes it from the LMP8481 family variants.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | 20V/V fixed-enables direct scaling of 100mV sense voltage to 2V output, simplifying ADC interface design. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±80µV max at 25°C-supports use of smaller shunt resistors (e.g., 1mΩ) without compromising low-current measurement accuracy. |
| Common-Mode Range | 4.0V to 76V-allows direct connection to 12V/24V/48V/72V battery or bus rails without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Bandwidth | 270kHz (–3dB)-sufficient for fast transient detection in motor control and DC-DC converter current limiting. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5V to 76V-permits direct tie to monitored rail, eliminating isolated bias supplies and saving board space. |
| Quiescent Current | <100µA-minimizes system power overhead in always-on battery monitoring applications. |
| PSRR / CMRR | 122dB / 124dB (DC)-rejects supply noise and common-mode transients critical in noisy automotive environments. |
Pinout & Package
VSSOP-8 package (3.00mm × 3.00mm body, 0.65mm pitch); thermally enhanced for industrial and automotive ambient conditions up to +125°C junction temperature.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RSP | Positive current sense input | Connects to high-side of shunt resistor; withstands up to 85V absolute max, supports Kelvin sensing. |
| 2 - VCC | Positive supply voltage | Accepts 4.5–76V; powers internal 14V LDO and amplifier stages-may be tied directly to monitored rail. |
| 3 - NC | No connection | Not internally bonded; must remain floating per datasheet-no external pull-up/down required. |
| 4 - GND | Ground reference | System ground return; minimum 4.0V common-mode above this pin required for valid operation. |
| 5 - VOUT | Voltage output | Buffered rail-to-rail capable output sourcing >5mA; compatible with 100kΩ+ ADC inputs. |
| 6 - NC | No connection (LMP8480 only) | Internally disconnected-distinct from LMP8481's REFB pin; must not be connected. |
| 7 - NC | No connection (LMP8480 only) | Internally disconnected-distinct from LMP8481's REFA pin; must not be connected. |
| 8 - RSN | Negative current sense input | Connects to low-side of shunt; matched impedance with RSP ensures high CMRR performance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Unidirectional sensing only | Fixed zero-output baseline at no current-simplifies signal conditioning for battery charge/discharge direction-agnostic monitoring. |
| Internal VREF grounding | Both reference pins tied to GND internally-eliminates need for external reference circuitry and reduces layout complexity vs bidirectional variants. |
| High PSRR/CMRR | 122dB/124dB DC rejection-maintains accuracy in presence of switching regulator ripple and bus transients typical in EV and telecom systems. |
| Wide temperature range | –40°C to +125°C operation-qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial power module deployment without derating. |
| Low quiescent current | <100µA supply draw-enables continuous current logging in battery-backed systems with multi-year runtime. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side current sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4080TASA+ | 20V/V gain, ±100µV offset, 250kHz bandwidth, same VSSOP-8 package-slightly higher offset and lower bandwidth than LMP8480MME-T/NOPB. | Valid for legacy designs requiring drop-in replacement; lacks LMP8480's improved PSRR (122dB vs 110dB) and wider common-mode range (76V vs 70V). | Select when reusing existing MAX4080-based layouts with minimal performance margin requirements. |
| INA240A1D | 20V/V gain, ±20µV offset, 400kHz bandwidth, SOIC-8 package-superior offset and speed but larger footprint and higher quiescent current (1.8mA vs 88µA). | Better suited for high-precision FOC motor control where ultra-low offset dominates over power budget; requires PCB redesign due to SOIC-8 vs VSSOP-8. | Select when lowest possible offset and fastest response are mandatory, and board space/power constraints permit SOIC-8 adoption. |
Compared with MAX4080TASA+, LMP8480MME-T/NOPB offers tighter gain accuracy and higher common-mode tolerance; compared with INA240A1D, it trades ultra-low offset for significantly lower quiescent current and smaller VSSOP-8 footprint-making it optimal for space- and power-constrained automotive and telecom modules.

FAQ
What is the maximum common-mode voltage supported by the LMP8480MME-T/NOPB?
The LMP8480MME-T/NOPB supports a common-mode input voltage range of 4.0V to 76V. This allows direct connection to high-voltage rails such as 48V telecom systems or 72V battery packs without attenuation or level-shifting circuitry. Absolute maximum rating is 85V, but operation beyond 76V violates recommended conditions and risks parametric shift.
Does the LMP8480MME-T/NOPB support bidirectional current sensing?
No, the LMP8480MME-T/NOPB is strictly unidirectional. Its internal VREF pins are grounded, fixing the output baseline at zero volts when no current flows. For bidirectional operation, the LMP8481 variant must be used-where external reference voltages applied to REFA/REFB set the output midpoint.
What is the gain accuracy specification for the LMP8480MME-T/NOPB over temperature?
The LMP8480MME-T/NOPB has a gain error of ±0.6% at TA = 25°C and ±0.8% over the full operating temperature range of –40°C to +125°C. This is confirmed in Section 6.5 of the datasheet under "Gain error" test conditions with VCC = VRSP = 48V.
Can the LMP8480MME-T/NOPB be powered from the same rail it monitors?
Yes-the LMP8480MME-T/NOPB accepts supply voltages from 4.5V to 76V, fully overlapping its 4.0–76V common-mode input range. It can therefore be powered directly from the monitored rail (e.g., 48V bus), eliminating the need for auxiliary supplies and reducing system component count and board area.
What is the thermal resistance (RθJA) of the LMP8480MME-T/NOPB in its VSSOP-8 package?
The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) for the LMP8480MME-T/NOPB in DGK (VSSOP-8) package is 185°C/W, as specified in Section 6.4 of the datasheet. This value assumes standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions and informs thermal derating calculations for continuous operation at elevated ambient temperatures.
