Product details
Overview
LT1999CMS8-20#PBF from Analog Devices is a high-speed, bidirectional current sense amplifier with 20V/V fixed gain, –5V to 80V input common mode range, 2MHz bandwidth, and ±0.5% gain accuracy. It senses current via external shunt resistor and outputs a voltage referenced to mid-supply or external REF, enabling precise H-bridge motor current monitoring in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LT1999CMS8-20#PBF datasheet, LT1999CMS8-20#PBF pinout, LT1999CMS8-20#PBF application, or LT1999CMS8-20#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its FMEA-optimized MSOP-8 pinout option, 1.55mA supply current at 5V, shutdown mode (<10µA), and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive-grade reliability in high-side/low-side sensing.
Technical Context
The LT1999CMS8-20#PBF employs a transconductance-based input stage with matched 4kΩ input resistors and an on-chip 80kΩ feedback resistor (RG) to achieve its 20V/V gain. Its differential input structure enables seamless operation across –5V to 80V common mode, with diode-assisted biasing below V+ to maintain continuity.
It features a rail-to-rail output stage capable of sourcing 31mA and sinking 26mA, with 0.5% settling time of 2.5µs for ±2V steps and sub-microsecond turn-on/off timing. The REF pin supports external reference override while maintaining 62dB rejection at 3.25V offset.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | 20V/V fixed, enabling ±0.2V full-scale differential input for ±4V output swing with 2.5V REF |
| Common Mode Range | –5V to 80V, supporting direct high-side sensing in 48V industrial systems without level-shifting |
| Bandwidth | 2MHz small-signal, sufficient for PWM current loop monitoring up to 200kHz switching frequencies |
| Gain Accuracy | ±0.5% max over temperature, ensuring <10mV error in 2V full-scale output for precision control |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±1.5mV max, contributing ≤30mV output error at 20× gain under worst-case conditions |
| Supply Current | 1.55mA typical at 5V, enabling low-power operation in always-on battery monitoring circuits |
| Shutdown Current | <10µA, reducing system standby power by >99% when current sensing is inactive |
Pinout & Package
LT1999CMS8-20#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic MSOP package (MS8), 3mm × 3mm, 0.65mm pitch, with thermal resistance θJA = 300°C/W. The part uses the original MSOP pinout (not FMEA-optimized variant), confirmed by order code "CMS8" and marking "LTFNZ".
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ (Pins 1, 4) | Power supply input | Internally tied pins accepting 4.5V–5.5V; dual connection improves PSRR and reduces supply impedance |
| +IN (Pin 2) | Positive sense input | Differential input terminal connected to shunt high-side; matched 4kΩ impedance ensures CMRR integrity |
| –IN (Pin 3) | Negative sense input | Differential input terminal connected to shunt low-side; symmetric layout minimizes thermal EMF errors |
| GND (Pin 5) | Analog ground reference | Return path for internal bias currents and REF divider; must be star-connected to shunt ground |
| REF (Pin 6) | Output common-mode reference | Sets output midpoint; open-circuit default is 2.5V; externally driven to shift output range or reject noise |
| OUT (Pin 7) | Amplified current-sense output | Low-impedance voltage output driving ≥1kΩ loads directly; requires series resistor for >200pF capacitive loads |
| SHDN (Pin 8) | Active-low shutdown control | Pulled to GND ≤0.5V to enter <10µA shutdown; floating or pulled high enables operation via 2µA internal pull-up |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional sensing | Outputs positive/negative voltage relative to REF to indicate current direction-enables regenerative braking detection in motor drives |
| FMEA-compatible pinout option | Available in alternate MSOP pinout (LT1999CMS8-20F#PBF) with NC on Pin 3 to prevent short-circuit failure modes in safety-critical systems |
| High-voltage transient immunity | 4kV HBM / 1kV CDM ESD rating ensures robustness against board-level electrostatic discharge during handling and operation |
| Wide temperature operation | Specified from 0°C to 70°C (C-grade); functional from –55°C to 150°C per MP-grade characterization, supporting under-hood automotive use |
| AC CMRR >80dB @100kHz | Maintains accuracy in noisy PWM environments-critical for accurate current reconstruction in switching power supplies |

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 | 20V/V gain, –4V to 80V CMR, 4.5MHz bandwidth, 1.1mV max VOS, automotive AEC-Q100 Grade 1 | Higher bandwidth and lower offset but requires external REF decoupling; no integrated mid-supply divider | Preferred for new automotive designs requiring higher speed and tighter offset, with layout allowance for external REF filtering |
| MAX4080TASA+ | 20V/V gain, –5V to 76V CMR, 2.5MHz bandwidth, 0.5mV max VOS, SO-8 package only | SO-8 footprint (S8), no MSOP option; lacks shutdown pin and FMEA pinout variants | Selected when SO-8 compatibility is mandatory and shutdown functionality is not required |
Compared with LT1999CMS8-20#PBF, INA240A1QDRQ1 offers faster response and lower offset but demands more careful REF routing, while MAX4080TASA+ provides superior offset performance in legacy SO-8 layouts but forfeits MSOP space savings and FMEA-safe pinout options.

FAQ
What is the exact gain tolerance and temperature drift behavior of the LT1999CMS8-20#PBF?
The LT1999CMS8-20#PBF has a guaranteed gain accuracy of ±0.5% over its full operating temperature range (0°C to 70°C), with typical gain of 20V/V. Gain drift is not separately specified, but gain error remains within ±0.5% across temperature due to matched on-chip resistor ratios. This ensures consistent scaling of shunt voltage to output regardless of ambient conditions, critical for closed-loop current regulation in the LT1999CMS8-20#PBF.
Can the LT1999CMS8-20#PBF operate with a 3.3V supply instead of the nominal 5V?
The LT1999CMS8-20#PBF is specified for 4.5V to 5.5V operation and is not characterized or guaranteed below 4.5V. While limited functionality may occur at 3.3V, output swing, CMR, and gain accuracy degrade significantly-and the internal 2µA SHDN pull-up cannot reliably activate the device. For 3.3V systems, the LT1999CMS8-20#PBF must be powered from a dedicated 5V rail or replaced with a 3.3V-compatible alternative.
How does the REF pin function in the LT1999CMS8-20#PBF, and what happens if left unconnected?
When left unconnected, the REF pin of the LT1999CMS8-20#PBF defaults to mid-supply (2.5V) via internal 160kΩ resistors between V+ and GND. This sets the output common-mode level. Driving REF externally allows output level shifting-for example, to match ADC input range-but requires staying within 1.125V to (V+ – 1.125V). The LT1999CMS8-20#PBF maintains 62dB REF rejection even with 3.25V offsets.
Is the LT1999CMS8-20#PBF pin-compatible with the LT1999IMS8-20#PBF or LT1999HMS8-20#PBF?
Yes-the LT1999CMS8-20#PBF, LT1999IMS8-20#PBF, and LT1999HMS8-20#PBF share identical MSOP-8 packaging, pinout, and electrical interface. They differ only in temperature grade (0°C–70°C, –40°C–85°C, and –40°C–125°C respectively) and screening/test coverage. No PCB layout change is needed when upgrading from C-grade to I- or H-grade versions of the LT1999CMS8-20#PBF.
Does the LT1999CMS8-20#PBF support high-side sensing in 48V battery systems, and what protection does it offer?
Yes-the LT1999CMS8-20#PBF supports high-side sensing up to +80V common mode, fully covering 48V battery systems including load-dump transients. Its inputs feature ESD clamps rated for –5.25V to +88V, and it withstands 4kV HBM/1kV CDM. Differential input protection prevents damage from shunt resistor faults, making the LT1999CMS8-20#PBF suitable for automotive 48V mild-hybrid applications.
