Product details
Overview
TSC1021AIYPT from STMicroelectronics is a high-side current sense amplifier with fixed 20 V/V gain, operating over 2.8 V to 30 V common-mode input range independent of 3.5–5.5 V supply, ±2.3 mV max input offset (−40 °C to 125 °C), ±2.5 % max total output error, and 8 µV/°C offset drift - used in automotive battery monitoring and industrial SMPS current feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the TSC1021AIYPT datasheet, TSC1021AIYPT pinout, TSC1021AIYPT application, or TSC1021AIYPT equivalent, key selection criteria include reverse-battery survival (−32 V), load-dump tolerance (60 V), EMI filtering integration, TSSOP8 footprint compatibility, and AEC-Q100 automotive qualification.
Technical Context
The TSC1021AIYPT employs a precision current-sense architecture that isolates measurement from supply rail constraints: its input common-mode voltage (2.8–30 V) operates independently of VCC (3.5–5.5 V), enabling accurate shunt-based sensing in high-voltage automotive and telecom power rails. It integrates an internal buffer for low-impedance output drive and features built-in EMI filtering.
Designed for harsh environments, it delivers 90–105 dB DC CMR and 80–95 dB SVR across −40 °C to 125 °C, with 7 µs settling time to 1 % and 800 kHz bandwidth - supporting fast transient detection in overcurrent protection circuits without external compensation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | Fixed 20 V/V - eliminates external resistor network, reduces layout sensitivity and calibration drift. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±2.3 mV max (−40 °C to 125 °C) - sets minimum resolvable sense voltage at ~115 µV for 5 mΩ shunt. |
| Total Output Error | ±2.5 % max (−40 °C to 125 °C) - defines full-scale accuracy limit for closed-loop current regulation. |
| Common-Mode Range | 2.8 V to 30 V (operating), independent of VCC - enables direct sensing on 12 V/24 V/48 V battery or bus lines. |
| Survival Rating | −32 V to +60 V - withstands reverse-battery and ISO 7637-2 load-dump transients without external clamping. |
| Supply Current | 300 µA max - supports always-on monitoring in low-power automotive modules. |
| Output Settling Time | 7 µs to 1 % - supports real-time overcurrent response in <10 µs protection windows. |
Pinout & Package
Housed in a compact, lead-free TSSOP8 package (3.0 × 4.4 mm, 0.65 mm pitch), the TSC1021AIYPT supports surface-mount assembly and thermal resistance of 120 °C/W (junction-to-ambient).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Vm) | Analog input (low-side shunt node) | Current exits shunt here; referenced to GND; part of differential pair with Vp. |
| 3 (Gnd) | Power supply ground | Reference return for VCC and output stage; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| 4 (Out) | Analog output (buffered) | Low-impedance, rail-to-rail-capable output; drives ADC inputs or comparator thresholds directly. |
| 6 (VCC) | Positive supply | 3.5–5.5 V logic-compatible supply; decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm. |
| 8 (Vp) | Analog input (high-side shunt node) | Current enters shunt here; common-mode voltage up to 30 V; ESD-protected (4 kV HBM). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 qualified (automotive grade) | Validated for −40 °C to 125 °C operation with advanced screening per AEC Q001/Q002 - suitable for engine control, BMS, and ADAS power stages. |
| Integrated EMI filtering | Reduces susceptibility to high-frequency noise from switching regulators and motor drives without external RC networks. |
| Buffered output stage | Drives capacitive loads up to 47 pF with stable 7 µs settling - avoids accuracy loss when interfacing to SAR ADCs or microcontroller inputs. |
| Reversed-battery & load-dump hardened | Operates after −32 V reverse polarity and survives 60 V transients - eliminates need for external TVS diodes in 12 V/24 V vehicle systems. |
| Low temperature drift | 8 µV/°C input offset drift and 100 ppm/°C output voltage drift - maintains calibration stability across under-hood thermal cycles. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA240A1QDRQ1 | Higher gain accuracy (±0.2 %), wider common-mode (−4 V to 80 V), but higher quiescent current (2.4 mA) | Preferred for precision motor control where offset drift dominates error budget; less suitable for ultra-low-power always-on monitoring | Select if absolute accuracy >1 % is required and supply current is not constrained. |
| TSC1021BIYPT | Same package and qualification, but 50 V/V fixed gain and higher output error (±2.5 % still holds) | Better resolution for low-current sensing (e.g., <1 A with 10 mΩ shunt); trades dynamic range for sensitivity | Choose when sensing sub-ampere currents where 50× gain improves SNR over 20× without adding external amplification. |
Compared with INA240A1QDRQ1, the TSC1021AIYPT offers lower power and smaller footprint at the cost of absolute gain accuracy; versus TSC1021BIYPT, it provides higher current-handling headroom and reduced saturation risk in high-Vsense conditions.

FAQ
What is the maximum common-mode voltage the TSC1021AIYPT can withstand during normal operation?
The TSC1021AIYPT operates continuously with input common-mode voltages from 2.8 V to 30 V - independent of its 3.5–5.5 V supply rail. This allows direct sensing on 12 V, 24 V, or 48 V buses without level-shifting circuitry, making it ideal for high-side placement in automotive and telecom power systems.
Does the TSC1021AIYPT require external components for basic operation?
No external components are required for core functionality: the device integrates EMI filtering, a buffered output stage, and fixed 20 V/V gain. Only a 100 nF ceramic decoupling capacitor on VCC and proper PCB layout (short, low-inductance shunt traces) are recommended - no gain-setting resistors, compensation networks, or output buffers needed.
How does the TSC1021AIYPT handle reverse-battery conditions?
The TSC1021AIYPT survives −32 V applied to Vp and Vm pins (relative to GND) per absolute maximum ratings, meeting automotive reverse-polarity test requirements. Its internal protection architecture prevents latch-up or damage during battery misconnection, eliminating need for external series diodes or TVS devices in most 12 V/24 V vehicle designs.
Is the TSC1021AIYPT pin-compatible with other members of the TSC102x family?
Yes - all TSC102x variants (including TSC1021AIYPT, TSC1021BIYPT, TSC1021AIPT, and TSC1021BIPT) share identical TSSOP8 pinout, electrical interface, and footprint. Gain and qualification grade differ only in marking and internal trimming; no PCB redesign is needed when swapping between A/B gain versions or industrial/automotive grades.
