Product details
Overview
LMP8603QMMX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision bidirectional current-sense amplifier with fixed 100× gain, –22V to +60V input common-mode voltage range at 5V supply, 90dB minimum CMRR, ±1mV max input offset voltage, and in-line filter capability for signal conditioning in high-noise industrial power stages.
For engineers reviewing the LMP8603QMMX/NOPB datasheet, LMP8603QMMX/NOPB pinout, LMP8603QMMX/NOPB application, or LMP8603QMMX/NOPB equivalent, this device supports accurate shunt-based current monitoring in DC/DC converters, server power supplies, and motor control where wide common-mode range and low drift are critical.
Technical Context
The LMP8603QMMX/NOPB implements a two-stage architecture: a chopping-level-shift preamplifier (gain = 10×, trimmed 100kΩ output impedance) followed by a buffered output stage (gain = 10×), enabling precise amplification of µV-level shunt voltages under high common-mode stress. Its proprietary input stage withstands large differential fault voltages without damage.
It supports single-supply bidirectional operation via the OFFSET pin, allowing full-scale ADC interfacing across both current polarities. The A1/A2 pins expose the inter-stage node for external filtering or gain modification-enabling custom bandwidth shaping or noise rejection without altering core accuracy.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Total Gain | 100× (±0.5% error) - delivers full-scale output for 25mV shunt drop at 5V supply |
| Common-Mode Range | –22V to +60V at VS = 5V - enables direct sensing on high-side MOSFET drains or negative-rail loads |
| CMRR | ≥90dB (min) at 1kHz - rejects bus ripple and switching noise in noisy 48V systems |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±1mV (max) - ensures ≤25µA error at 25mΩ shunt, critical for low-current precision |
| TCVOS | ±10µV/°C (max) - limits drift to <1.25mV over –40°C to +125°C ambient |
| Bandwidth | 60kHz - supports real-time monitoring of fast-switching GaN-based DC/DC converters |
| Supply Current | 1.1mA (typ) at 5V - enables low-power always-on current supervision in battery-backed systems |
Pinout & Package
The LMP8603QMMX/NOPB is packaged in an 8-pin VSSOP (DGK) package measuring 3.00mm × 4.90mm, optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts in server and industrial power modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| -IN (Pin 1) | Negative input | Connects to low-side of current shunt; accepts common-mode down to –22V |
| +IN (Pin 8) | Positive input | Connects to high-side of shunt; forms differential pair with –IN |
| OFFSET (Pin 7) | DC offset control | Sets output mid-scale (VS/2) for bidirectional current measurement |
| OUT (Pin 5) | Single-ended output | Delivers amplified, filtered, rail-to-rail compatible voltage to ADC input |
| A1 (Pin 3) | Preamplifier output | Provides 10×-gained signal for external RC filtering or gain adjustment |
| A2 (Pin 4) | Buffer input | Accepts filtered A1 signal; input bias current ≤2pA minimizes loading error |
| VS (Pin 6) | Positive supply | Accepts 3.3V or 5V single supply; PSRR ≥90dB suppresses supply noise |
| GND (Pin 2) | Power ground | Reference for all analog circuitry; separate from power ground for noise isolation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Chopping-level-shift input stage | Enables ultra-low offset (±1mV) and drift (±10µV/°C) while surviving >80V differential fault transients |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar current-sense amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA240A1QDRQ1 | Gain = 20× (fixed), wider common-mode (–4V to 80V), higher bandwidth (400kHz), no A1/A2 filter nodes | Better for high-speed motor control but lacks in-line filtering; requires external gain stage for 100× scaling | Select when bandwidth >100kHz is required and external filtering is acceptable |
| MAX40056ASA+T | Gain = 100× (fixed), common-mode = –0.2V to 65V, CMRR = 120dB (min), no exposed preamp node | Superior CMRR for ultra-low-noise lab instrumentation; no A1/A2 flexibility limits custom filtering | Select when maximum noise rejection is critical and standard RC filtering suffices |
Compared with INA240A1QDRQ1 and MAX40056ASA+T, the LMP8603QMMX/NOPB uniquely provides accessible A1/A2 nodes for configurable signal conditioning while maintaining 100× gain and –22V to +60V operation-making it optimal for industrial power systems requiring both precision and design adaptability.

FAQ
What is the maximum common-mode voltage supported by the LMP8603QMMX/NOPB?
The LMP8603QMMX/NOPB supports a maximum input common-mode voltage range of –22V to +60V when operated from a 5V supply, enabling direct high-side sensing in 48V systems and negative-rail applications without level-shifting circuitry. This specification is validated across the full –40°C to +125°C operating temperature range per TI SLVSJ15 datasheet Section 5.6.
How does the A1 and A2 pin functionality enable custom filtering in the LMP8603QMMX/NOPB?
The A1 pin outputs the 10×-gained preamplifier signal, and the A2 pin feeds that signal into the 10× output buffer. By inserting an RC network between A1 and A2, designers can add a programmable low-pass filter to suppress PWM switching noise while preserving DC accuracy. The trimmed 100kΩ A1 output impedance ensures predictable cutoff frequency, as confirmed in Section 6.1.1 and Figure 4-2 of the LMP8603QMMX/NOPB datasheet.
Can the LMP8603QMMX/NOPB perform bidirectional current sensing with a single 5V supply?
Yes-the LMP8603QMMX/NOPB supports true bidirectional current sensing using only a single 5V supply. The OFFSET pin is biased to VS/2 (2.5V), shifting the output baseline so positive current produces voltage above 2.5V and negative current produces voltage below 2.5V. This capability is explicitly documented in Section 3 (Description) and Section 6.3.1 of the LMP8603QMMX/NOPB datasheet.
What is the typical supply current consumption of the LMP8603QMMX/NOPB at 5V operation?
The LMP8603QMMX/NOPB draws 1.1mA typical supply current at VS = 5V and TA = 25°C, with a guaranteed maximum of 1.5mA over the full –40°C to +125°C temperature range (Section 5.6, Electrical Characteristics). This low quiescent current supports energy-efficient always-on monitoring in thermally constrained server and industrial environments.
Does the LMP8603QMMX/NOPB include built-in protection against differential overvoltage faults?
Yes-the LMP8603QMMX/NOPB incorporates level-shift resistors at its inputs that allow it to safely withstand differential input voltages exceeding ±80V during fault conditions, unlike many competitive current-sense amplifiers. This ruggedness is enabled by its proprietary chopping-level-shift architecture and is highlighted in Section 6.1 and Absolute Maximum Ratings (Section 5.1) of the official datasheet.
