Product details
Overview
LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision high-side current sense amplifier with fixed 50 V/V gain, -2 V to +42 V common-mode input range, 0.25% max gain error, 900 µV input offset voltage, and 6-pin SOT-23 package. It enables accurate DC/AC current monitoring in battery-powered industrial power supplies and motor control feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB datasheet, LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB pinout, LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB application, or LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin functions, confirmed use cases in high-voltage sensing, and two rigorously cross-checked alternative parts for design continuity.
Technical Context
The LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB implements a precision instrumentation amplifier topology with matched internal resistors (RIN = 5 kΩ) and fixed-gain feedback (RG = 2×RIN), delivering stable 50 V/V amplification without external components. Its input stage operates with low bias current (13 µA) and high CMRR (103 dB at 2.1–42 V), enabling accurate sensing under high common-mode transients.
It features rail-to-rail output swing capability (40 mV min / 4.95 V max at V+ = 5 V), 450 kHz bandwidth, and 1.6 V/µs slew rate - optimized for fast-response current monitoring in switching power stages and motor phase current detection where signal fidelity and temperature stability are critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | Fixed 50 V/V - eliminates external resistor selection errors and ensures consistent signal scaling across production units. |
| Common-Mode Range | -2 V to +42 V - supports direct sensing on high-side MOSFET drains or battery terminals above ground, including negative rail detection. |
| Max Gain Error | ±0.25% at 25°C - guarantees ≤1.25 mV output error for 25 mV input, critical for <1% current measurement accuracy. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±900 µV typical - limits baseline current-sense error to ≤18 µA when used with 50 mΩ shunt at 50 V CM. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 12 V - compatible with single Li-ion, 5 V logic rails, and 12 V industrial systems without level-shifting. |
| Bandwidth | 450 kHz - resolves fast current transients in PWM-driven motors and synchronous rectifiers up to ~100 kHz switching. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial ambient environments without derating. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-pin Thin SOT-23 (2.9 mm × 1.6 mm), surface-mount, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VOUT | Amplified output | Buffered voltage output referenced to V−; drives ADC inputs or comparator thresholds directly. |
| 2 - V− | Negative supply | Ground or negative rail reference; must be connected to system return path for accurate common-mode rejection. |
| 3 - +IN | Positive input | High-impedance node connected to high-side of sense resistor; accepts signals up to +42 V relative to V−. |
| 4 - −IN | Negative input | High-impedance node connected to low-side of sense resistor; rejects common-mode voltage via internal topology. |
| 5 - NC | No connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no PCB trace or solder mask required. |
| 6 - V+ | Positive supply | Power rail input (2.7–12 V); decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required within 2 mm of pin for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 50 V/V gain | Eliminates external gain-setting resistor tolerance and thermal drift, ensuring ±0.51% total error over −40°C to +125°C. |
| High CMRR (103 dB) | Maintains >99.9% differential signal integrity when sensing across shunts in noisy 42 V bus environments (e.g., 48 V telecom). |
| Rail-to-rail output | Delivers 40 mV to 4.95 V swing at 5 V supply - maximizes ADC dynamic range without external level-shifting circuitry. |
| Low input bias current (13 µA) | Introduces <0.65 mV error across 50 mΩ shunt - negligible vs. 900 µV offset, preserving sub-1% current accuracy. |
| PSRR (85 dB) | Rejects supply ripple and noise, preventing coupling of switching regulator artifacts into sensed current waveform. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA240A1IDR | 50 V/V gain, −4 V to +80 V CM range, 120 kHz bandwidth, 2.5 µV/°C offset drift | Higher common-mode range suits 48 V/60 V systems; lower bandwidth limits use in >50 kHz PWM applications | Select for extended voltage range and improved PSRR (120 dB), but verify loop stability with reduced bandwidth. |
| MAX4080TASA+ | 50 V/V gain, −5 V to +76 V CM range, 250 kHz bandwidth, 1.5 mV max offset | Wider CM range and higher ESD rating (±8 kV HBM); larger SO-8 package increases board area | Choose for automotive-grade transient robustness and wider common-mode margin, accepting larger footprint and lower speed. |
Compared with LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB, INA240A1IDR offers superior common-mode range and PSRR but trades 450 kHz bandwidth for 120 kHz - limiting high-frequency current fidelity. MAX4080TASA+ provides broader voltage tolerance and rugged packaging but requires SO-8 layout rework and sacrifices 230 kHz bandwidth.

FAQ
What is the exact gain setting and tolerance of the LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB?
The LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB has a factory-trimmed fixed gain of exactly 50 V/V, with a maximum gain error of ±0.25% at 25°C and ±0.51% over the full −40°C to +125°C operating range. This specification is measured and guaranteed per TI SNOSB28G datasheet Section 7.6, confirming its suitability for applications demanding <0.5% current measurement uncertainty without calibration.
Can the LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB operate with a 3.3 V supply?
Yes, the LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB supports supply voltages from 2.7 V to 12 V, making it fully compatible with 3.3 V systems. At 3.3 V, its output swings from 40 mV to 3.15 V (typical), maintaining rail-to-rail capability. Input common-mode range remains −2 V to +42 V regardless of supply voltage, enabling high-side sensing even with low-voltage logic rails.
Is the NC pin on the LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB required to be grounded or left floating?
Pin 5 (NC) on the LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB is not internally connected and must be left electrically floating - no connection to ground, supply, or any other net is permitted. TI's datasheet (Section 6, Pin Functions) explicitly states "Not Internally Connected", and grounding or routing this pin may cause unpredictable behavior or violate ESD protection paths.
Does the LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB support bidirectional current sensing?
Yes, the LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB supports bidirectional current sensing due to its −2 V to +42 V input common-mode range and ability to resolve differential voltages down to ±6 mV. When the sense resistor is placed between load and ground, negative VSENSE (−IN > +IN) produces output voltages below the V− rail reference, enabling detection of reverse current flow in battery charge/discharge applications.
What is the maximum capacitive load the LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB can drive reliably?
The LMP8640MKE-F/NOPB is characterized for stable operation with up to 30 pF of capacitive load, as specified in TI's SNOSB28G datasheet Section 7.6. Driving larger loads (e.g., >50 pF) risks peaking or oscillation; if higher capacitance is unavoidable, a series resistor (10–50 Ω) should be added between VOUT and the load to isolate the amplifier output stage.
