Product details
Overview
LT1999CMS8-50#PBF from Analog Devices is a high-voltage, bidirectional current sense amplifier with 50V/V fixed gain, –5V to 80V input common mode range, 1.2MHz small-signal 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 bidirectional monitoring in H-bridge motor controls and battery charge/discharge systems.
For engineers reviewing the LT1999CMS8-50#PBF datasheet, LT1999CMS8-50#PBF pinout, LT1999CMS8-50#PBF application, or LT1999CMS8-50#PBF equivalent, this device supports high-side/low-side sensing in automotive-grade power systems, PWM control loops, and fuse/MOSFET monitoring where wide common mode, fast recovery (<1.3µs), and AEC-Q100 qualification are critical.
Technical Context
The LT1999CMS8-50#PBF uses matched on-chip resistive networks (R+IN/R–IN = 4kΩ each) and transconductance amplification to convert differential shunt voltage into output current, then applies a fixed 50V/V gain via internal 200kΩ/4kΩ resistor ratio. Its architecture enables smooth, continuous operation across the full –5V to 80V common mode range without gain or offset discontinuity.
It features dual-stage biasing: for VCM > V+, inputs operate with D1 off; for –5V < VCM < V+, integrated diode D1 activates to maintain ≥2.25V headroom above GND at GIN inputs. REF pin sets output common-mode level and accepts external voltage within 1.125V to (V+ – 1.125V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | 50V/V - fixed ratio ensures predictable scaling of shunt voltage to output; enables ±20mV full-scale input for ±1V output swing. |
| Common Mode Range | –5V to 80V - supports direct sensing in 48V/60V industrial bus, battery packs, and high-side switching nodes without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Bandwidth | 1.2MHz - sufficient for accurate current capture in 500kHz PWM motor drives and fast transient detection in protection circuits. |
| Gain Accuracy | ±0.5% max - guarantees ≤10mV error at ±1V output, critical for closed-loop current regulation and energy metering precision. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±500µV max - limits zero-current output error to ±25mV, preserving resolution for low-current sensing down to ~500mA with 50mΩ shunt. |
| Supply Current | 1.55mA typical at VCM > 5.5V - enables low-power operation in always-on monitoring paths; shutdown draws <10µA. |
| CMRR | ≥96dB over full VCM range - rejects noise from noisy power rails, essential for clean signal extraction in EMI-heavy motor drive environments. |
Pinout & Package
LT1999CMS8-50#PBF is housed in an 8-lead MSOP package (MS8), 3mm × 3mm, 0.65mm pitch, with original pinout (not FMEA-optimized). Thermal resistance θJA = 300°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ (Pins 1, 4) | Power supply input | Internally tied pins accept 4.5V–5.5V; lower voltages possible but not specified; powers all internal amplifiers and bias networks. |
| +IN (Pin 2) | Positive sense input | Connects to high-side of shunt; matched 4kΩ input impedance ensures balanced differential sensing and CMRR integrity. |
| –IN (Pin 3) | Negative sense input | Connects to low-side of shunt; identical impedance to +IN; differential input handles ±80mV full-scale for 50× gain. |
| GND (Pin 5) | Analog ground reference | Return path for REF divider and output stage; must be low-impedance to avoid ground bounce degrading CMRR. |
| REF (Pin 6) | Output common-mode reference | Sets VOUT midpoint; default = V+/2 via internal 160k/160k divider; externally overdrivable for custom output offset. |
| OUT (Pin 7) | Amplified output | Low-impedance voltage source (0.15Ω); drives ≤200pF directly; requires series resistor for larger capacitive loads. |
| SHDN (Pin 8) | Shutdown control | Active-low logic input; <0.5V pulls device into <10µA shutdown; floating defaults to active via 2µA internal pull-up. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional current sensing | Outputs positive/negative voltage relative to REF to indicate current direction-enables regenerative braking and battery charge/discharge state detection. |
| FMEA-compatible pinout option available | Alternate MSOP variant (LT1999CMS8-50F#PBF) relocates NC to Pin 3 to prevent misconnection during assembly-reduces field failure risk in safety-critical automotive systems. |
| High common mode step recovery | 1.3µs recovery from ±50V common mode transients ensures stable output during MOSFET switching edges in half-bridge topologies. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Rated for –40°C to 125°C operation (H-grade variants); validated for automotive powertrain and chassis applications requiring long-term reliability under thermal stress. |
| ESD robustness | 4kV HBM / 1kV CDM tolerance protects against handling and system-level ESD events without external clamping diodes. |

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 | 50V/V gain, –4V to 80V CM range, 4.5MHz bandwidth, 150nV/√Hz noise, no REF pin - output referenced to GND only. | Requires level-shifting for mid-supply referenced output; higher bandwidth suits faster switching but adds noise sensitivity. | Select when GND-referenced output suffices and higher speed is prioritized over REF flexibility. |
| MAX40056ATA+T | 50V/V gain, –5V to 65V CM range, 1.5MHz bandwidth, integrated 2.5V REF, no shutdown pin - fixed internal reference only. | Limited to ≤65V common mode; lacks SHDN control; REF not overdrivable - less flexible for custom biasing. | Select when board space is constrained and internal 2.5V REF aligns with system ADC reference. |
Compared with INA240A1QDRQ1 and MAX40056ATA+T, the LT1999CMS8-50#PBF uniquely combines user-configurable REF pin, true bidirectional output swing, and AEC-Q100 qualification in MSOP - making it optimal for automotive H-bridge and industrial battery management where output referencing and safety compliance are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum common mode voltage the LT1999CMS8-50#PBF can handle?
The LT1999CMS8-50#PBF supports an input common mode voltage range of –5V to 80V, verified across its full operating temperature range. This allows direct connection to high-side switching nodes in 48V battery systems and industrial 60V bus architectures without external level-shifting circuitry. Absolute maximum ratings extend to –5.25V and 88V for short-duration transients.
Does the LT1999CMS8-50#PBF require external components for basic operation?
Yes - the LT1999CMS8-50#PBF requires two 0.1µF bypass capacitors on V+ (Pins 1 and 4) to GND (Pin 5), and the REF pin (Pin 6) defaults to mid-supply via internal 160k/160k resistors. No external gain-setting components are needed since gain is fixed at 50V/V. An external shunt resistor is required for current sensing, and optional RC filtering may be added at OUT for noise-sensitive applications.
How does the REF pin function in the LT1999CMS8-50#PBF?
The REF pin (Pin 6) in the LT1999CMS8-50#PBF sets the output common-mode voltage level. By default, it sits at V+/2 due to internal 160k/160k resistors. It can be overdriven by an external voltage source within 1.125V to (V+ – 1.125V) to shift the output baseline - enabling custom zero-current output levels or alignment with downstream ADC references. Input impedance is 60–100kΩ depending on voltage.
Is the LT1999CMS8-50#PBF suitable for automotive applications?
Yes - the LT1999CMS8-50#PBF is offered in automotive-grade versions (e.g., LT1999HMS8-50#PBF) qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade H (–40°C to +125°C). While the C-grade LT1999CMS8-50#PBF is rated for 0°C to 70°C, its core architecture, ESD robustness (4kV HBM), and FMEA-optimized pinout options make it suitable for non-safety-critical automotive subsystems such as body control modules and auxiliary power monitoring.
What is the small-signal bandwidth and slew rate of the LT1999CMS8-50#PBF?
The LT1999CMS8-50#PBF has a small-signal –3dB bandwidth of 1.2MHz and a slew rate of 3V/µs. These specifications ensure faithful reproduction of current waveforms in PWM-driven systems up to ~500kHz switching frequency while maintaining phase margin for stable closed-loop control. Bandwidth is gain-dependent: LT1999-10 and LT1999-20 variants offer 2MHz, while LT1999-50 is optimized for higher precision at reduced speed.
