Product details
Overview
LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision high-side current sense amplifier with fixed 50 V/V gain, operating from 2.7 V to 12 V supply and supporting input common-mode voltages from –2 V to +42 V. It delivers ±0.25% max gain error, 900 µV max input offset voltage, and 103 dB CMRR (2.1 V–42 V), enabling accurate DC/AC current monitoring in battery-powered and industrial power rails.
For engineers reviewing the LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB datasheet, LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB pinout, LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB application, or LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB equivalent, this device is selected for high-accuracy, low-drift current sensing where supply headroom is limited, common-mode transients are present, and output loading must be minimized via buffered voltage output.
Technical Context
The LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB uses a proprietary current-sense topology with matched internal resistive feedback (RG = 2×RIN) and dual 5 kΩ differential input resistors (RIN), ensuring stable gain accuracy across temperature and supply voltage. Its rail-to-rail output buffer drives ≥1 MΩ loads while maintaining linearity over full common-mode range.
It operates as a single-supply instrumentation-grade amplifier optimized for high-side shunt measurement: the +IN and –IN inputs directly interface across the sense resistor, rejecting common-mode voltage up to 42 V while amplifying only the mV-level differential VSENSE signal with minimal offset drift (2.6 µV/°C typical).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | Fixed 50 V/V - eliminates external gain-setting components and ensures production-ready accuracy without calibration. |
| Common-Mode Range | –2 V to +42 V - supports high-side sensing in 12 V, 24 V, and 36 V systems including battery disconnect and load-switch monitoring. |
| Max Gain Error | ±0.25% at 25°C - enables sub-1% total current measurement error in closed-loop power supplies and motor phase current sensing. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±900 µV max - limits worst-case sensing error to ≤18 µV at 50× gain, critical for low-current (<1 A) applications with mΩ shunts. |
| CMRR | 103 dB (2.1 V–42 V) - suppresses common-mode noise from switching regulators and bus transients, preserving signal integrity. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 12 V - allows direct operation from Li-ion batteries or regulated 3.3 V/5 V rails without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Bandwidth | 450 kHz - supports real-time current monitoring in PWM-driven motor controls and fast overcurrent protection circuits. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-pin Thin SOT-23 (2.9 mm × 1.6 mm), surface-mount, lead-free (NOPB).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VOUT | Amplified output | Buffered voltage output referenced to V−; drives high-impedance ADC inputs or comparator thresholds without gain degradation. |
| 2 - V− | Negative supply | Ground or negative rail reference; must be connected directly to system ground or low-side shunt node for proper common-mode rejection. |
| 3 - +IN | Positive differential input | Connects to high-side of sense resistor; accepts common-mode voltages up to +42 V while sourcing only 13 µA bias current. |
| 4 - −IN | Negative differential input | Connects to low-side of sense resistor; matched input impedance (5 kΩ) with +IN ensures balanced common-mode rejection. |
| 5 - NC | No connect | Not internally bonded; must remain unconnected and unstubbed to avoid parasitic coupling or EMI susceptibility. |
| 6 - V+ | Positive supply | Single positive supply input (2.7–12 V); powers internal amplifier and output buffer; decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 50 V/V gain | Eliminates external resistor matching errors and layout sensitivity-guarantees gain accuracy without trimming or calibration. |
| 103 dB CMRR (2.1–42 V) | Maintains measurement fidelity in noisy 24 V industrial buses or automotive battery lines with fast transient suppression. |
| 900 µV max input offset | Enables accurate sub-ampere current detection using standard 10 mΩ shunts without zero-error compensation circuitry. |
| 450 kHz bandwidth | Supports dynamic current profiling in BLDC motor commutation and real-time overcurrent fault response (<2.2 µs rise time). |
| Rail-to-rail output buffer | Drives 1 MΩ loads with <1 mV error-directly interfaces with SAR ADCs (e.g., ADS8860) without external op-amp buffering. |

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 | 20 V/V fixed gain, –4 V to 80 V common-mode, 120 kHz bandwidth, 50 µV offset | Better offset and wider common-mode range, but lower bandwidth limits use in fast-switching VRMs | Select for ultra-low-offset requirements in precision battery fuel gauging where speed is secondary |
| MAX40056ATA+T | 50 V/V fixed gain, –0.1 V to 65 V common-mode, 1 MHz bandwidth, 120 µV offset | Higher bandwidth and lower offset, but requires dual supply (±2.7 V) and lacks automotive qualification | Select for high-speed motor control where >450 kHz response is mandatory and dual supply is available |
Compared with INA240A1IDR and MAX40056ATA+T, the LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB offers optimal balance of 50× gain accuracy, 450 kHz bandwidth, and single-supply operation in 24–42 V industrial systems-making it preferred for cost-sensitive, space-constrained designs requiring no external gain components.

FAQ
What is the exact gain setting of the LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB?
The LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB has a factory-trimmed fixed gain of exactly 50 V/V. This value is laser-adjusted during production and guaranteed over temperature (±0.51% max error from –40°C to +125°C). No external resistors are needed-gain is set permanently by internal matched thin-film resistors (RG = 2×RIN, RIN = 5 kΩ).
Can the LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB operate with a 3.3 V supply?
Yes, the LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB operates across 2.7 V to 12 V supply range, making 3.3 V fully supported. At 3.3 V, it maintains full functionality: 50 V/V gain, –2 V to +42 V common-mode input range, and buffered rail-to-rail output swing (min 40 mV above V−, max 2.65 V below V+ at 25°C).
What does the "F" suffix indicate in LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB?
The "F" suffix in LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB denotes the 50 V/V gain variant within the LMP8640 family. TI uses "T" for 20 V/V, "F" for 50 V/V, and "H" for 100 V/V. The "MKX" package code specifies the 6-pin Thin SOT-23, and "/NOPB" confirms lead-free (RoHS-compliant) finish.
Is the NC pin on the LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB safe to tie to ground?
No-the NC (pin 5) on the LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB is not internally connected and must remain floating and unconnected. TI explicitly states it is "not internally connected"; grounding or routing traces to this pin may introduce parasitic capacitance or EMI coupling that degrades CMRR and bandwidth performance.
How does the LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB handle input overvoltage beyond its absolute maximum rating?
The LMP8640MKX-F/NOPB absolute maximum input voltage is –6 V to +60 V on +IN/–IN pins. Exceeding this risks permanent damage. It does not include integrated overvoltage protection-external clamping (e.g., TVS diodes rated ≤60 V) is required in systems subject to load dump or inductive kick events exceeding 42 V common-mode.
