Product details
Overview
LT1999IMS8-50#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 operates from a 4.5V–5.5V supply, draws 1.55mA active current, and supports high-side or low-side shunt sensing in motor control and battery monitoring systems.
For engineers reviewing the LT1999IMS8-50#PBF datasheet, LT1999IMS8-50#PBF pinout, LT1999IMS8-50#PBF application, or LT1999IMS8-50#PBF equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, FMEA-optimized MSOP-8 pin mapping, automotive-grade (–40°C to 85°C) thermal performance, and real-world use cases in H-bridge current monitoring and PWM loop feedback.
Technical Context
The LT1999IMS8-50#PBF uses matched on-chip resistor networks (R+IN/R–IN = 4kΩ each) and transconductance amplification to convert differential shunt voltage into a level-shifted output referenced to the REF pin. Its architecture enables smooth, continuous operation across the full –5V to 80V common mode range without gain discontinuity or offset shift.
It integrates internal 160kΩ/160kΩ mid-supply biasing for the REF pin, supports external reference override, and features a 2µA internal SHDN pull-up that ensures default active state when floating. The 50V/V gain version uses a nominal 200kΩ internal RG resistor per the gain equation VOUT – VREF = VSENSE × (RG/RIN).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | 50V/V fixed - enables precise 20mV full-scale shunt voltage to produce ±1V output swing, simplifying ADC interface design. |
| Common Mode Range | –5V to 80V - supports direct sensing in 48V industrial systems, automotive 12V/42V rails, and high-side MOSFET drain monitoring. |
| Bandwidth | 1.2MHz - sufficient for accurate current capture in 100kHz–500kHz PWM switching power supplies and motor phase current reconstruction. |
| Gain Accuracy | ±0.5% max - ensures <±10mV error at 1V output, critical for closed-loop torque control and battery charge/discharge state-of-charge estimation. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±500µV max - limits worst-case current measurement error to <±10µA for a 50mΩ shunt, preserving resolution in low-current standby modes. |
| Supply Current | 1.55mA typical - enables always-on current monitoring in energy-sensitive applications without compromising system efficiency. |
| Shutdown Current | <10µA - allows deep sleep during idle periods while retaining fast 1µs turn-on for responsive fault detection. |
Pinout & Package
LT1999IMS8-50#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic MSOP package (MS8), 3mm × 3mm, 0.65mm pitch, with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. This variant uses the FMEA-optimized pinout (as specified in order code LT1999IMS8-50F#PBF), where Pin 3 is NC to prevent misconnection-induced failure modes in safety-critical designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| +IN (Pin 1) | Positive sense input | Connects to high-side of shunt resistor; accepts common mode up to 80V without clamping or distortion. |
| –IN (Pin 2) | Negative sense input | Connects to low-side of shunt; differential pair with +IN enables bidirectional current polarity detection. |
| NC (Pin 3) | No connect | FMEA-designated open pin prevents accidental shorting or misrouting in automated assembly and improves fault tolerance. |
| V+ (Pin 4) | Power supply | 4.5V–5.5V single supply; Pins 1 and 4 are internally tied - dual connection improves PSRR and reduces supply impedance. |
| GND (Pin 5) | Ground reference | Return path for internal biasing and output stage; must be low-impedance to maintain CMRR >96dB. |
| REF (Pin 6) | Output common-mode reference | Defaults to V+/2 via internal 160kΩ dividers; externally overdrivable to set custom output center point for ADC alignment. |
| OUT (Pin 7) | Amplified output | Low-impedance rail-to-rail capable output; drives ≤200pF directly; requires ≥100Ω series resistor for larger capacitive loads. |
| SHDN (Pin 8) | Active-low shutdown control | Pulled to GND ≤0.5V to enter <10µA shutdown; floating defaults to active via internal 2µA pull-up - no external pull-up needed. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High-side/low-side flexibility | Operates seamlessly with shunt placed on either side of load - eliminates need for separate high-side or low-side IC variants. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Rated for automotive applications (–40°C to 85°C), including engine control units and battery management systems requiring extended reliability. |
| 4kV HBM ESD tolerance | Robust against handling and board-level transients - reduces need for external protection in industrial motor drive PCBs. |
| Smooth common mode transition | No gain or offset discontinuity when VCM crosses V+; enables reliable operation in systems with rapidly varying bus voltages (e.g., regenerative braking). |
| REF pin programmability | Accepts external voltage source (1.125V to V+–1.125V) to shift output baseline - simplifies interfacing with unipolar ADCs or differential receivers. |

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 common mode, 4.5MHz bandwidth, 10µV offset, but requires external REF decoupling and has no internal mid-supply divider. | Higher bandwidth suits ultra-fast switching (e.g., GaN-based converters); lower offset benefits µA-level leakage detection, but lacks integrated REF biasing. | Select INA240A1QDRQ1 when >4MHz bandwidth or sub-20µV offset is required; use LT1999IMS8-50#PBF when simplified REF setup and AEC-Q100-compliant FMEA pinout are prioritized. |
| MAX40056ATA+T | 50V/V gain, –5V to 65V common mode, 1.5MHz bandwidth, ±0.75% gain error, integrated 2.5V REF, but only rated to 125°C junction temperature. | Integrated 2.5V REF simplifies single-supply ADC interfacing; narrower common mode limits use in 80V industrial systems. | Select MAX40056ATA+T for cost-sensitive consumer applications needing fixed 2.5V REF; choose LT1999IMS8-50#PBF for 80V-rated industrial or automotive systems requiring guaranteed –40°C to 85°C operation and FMEA-optimized layout. |
Compared with INA240A1QDRQ1 and MAX40056ATA+T, the LT1999IMS8-50#PBF uniquely combines AEC-Q100 qualification, FMEA-optimized MSOP pinout (NC on Pin 3), internal mid-supply REF biasing, and guaranteed 80V common mode operation - making it optimal for safety-critical automotive and industrial current monitoring where layout robustness and voltage margin are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum common mode voltage supported by the LT1999IMS8-50#PBF?
The LT1999IMS8-50#PBF supports a continuous input common mode voltage range of –5V to 80V, verified across its full operating temperature range (–40°C to 85°C). This allows direct sensing on high-side MOSFET drains in 48V industrial systems and battery packs without external level-shifting circuitry. Absolute maximum ratings extend to –5.25V and 88V for transient conditions.
Does the LT1999IMS8-50#PBF require external resistors to set the REF voltage?
No, the LT1999IMS8-50#PBF includes internal 160kΩ/160kΩ resistive dividers that bias the REF pin to V+/2 by default. An external voltage source may override this reference within 1.125V to V+–1.125V, but no external resistors are needed for standard mid-supply operation - reducing BOM count and layout complexity.
How does the FMEA-optimized pinout of the LT1999IMS8-50#PBF improve system reliability?
The LT1999IMS8-50#PBF uses the FMEA-optimized MSOP pinout where Pin 3 is designated NC (no connect). This prevents incorrect routing or solder bridging that could cause catastrophic failure in safety-critical applications such as automotive motor control. Unlike the original MSOP pinout, this configuration eliminates ambiguity during automated optical inspection and reduces risk of misassembly-induced shorts.
What is the small-signal bandwidth and settling time of the LT1999IMS8-50#PBF?
The LT1999IMS8-50#PBF has a small-signal –3dB bandwidth of 1.2MHz and achieves 0.5% settling in 2.5µs for a ±2V output step. These values are measured under standard conditions (V+ = 5V, VCM = 12V) and remain stable across the full common mode range, enabling accurate current capture in high-frequency PWM applications up to 500kHz switching.
Is the LT1999IMS8-50#PBF AEC-Q100 qualified, and what grade does it meet?
Yes, the LT1999IMS8-50#PBF is AEC-Q100 qualified and meets Grade 3 requirements (–40°C to 85°C ambient operating temperature). It is specifically designed for automotive applications including battery management, motor control, and chassis electronics, with full qualification testing for reliability, ESD, and thermal cycling per AEC-Q100 Rev H standards.
