Product details
Overview
TSC102IYPT from STMicroelectronics is a high-side current sense amplifier with integrated signal conditioning amplifier, designed for precision shunt-based current monitoring in automotive and industrial power systems. It features independent supply and input common-mode voltage rails (2.8–30 V), 20 V/V fixed gain, ±2.3 mV input offset voltage over temperature, and operates from –40 °C to +125 °C. Used in battery chargers, DC motor control, and photovoltaic inverters where high-voltage rail sensing and low quiescent current (<420 µA) are critical.
For engineers reviewing the TSC102IYPT datasheet, TSC102IYPT pinout, TSC102IYPT application, or TSC102IYPT equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, automotive-grade ruggedness data (–16 V to 60 V survival), and direct alternatives with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The TSC102IYPT integrates two functionally distinct amplifiers on one die: a high-common-mode current sense front-end (CMR ≥90 dB DC, 75 dB AC @1 kHz) and a fully accessible op-amp for post-sense signal conditioning. Its input stage rejects supply variations (SVR ≥85 dB) and tolerates reversed battery (–16 V) and load-dump (60 V) transients without latch-up.
The device's dual-amplifier architecture enables flexible output configurations - including gain adjustment, filtering, overcurrent protection, and low-pass filtering - using external resistors and capacitors connected to pins A1, A2, and A3. All pins support 4 kV HBM ESD protection, and the output stage delivers ±30 mA short-circuit current with <185 mV saturation voltage at 1 mA sink/source.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | 20 V/V fixed - provides predictable scaling of shunt voltage to ground-referenced output, eliminating calibration drift from gain variation. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±2.3 mV max (–40 °C to +125 °C) - limits worst-case current measurement error to ±115 µA on a 50 mΩ shunt. |
| Common-Mode Range | 2.8 V to 30 V - enables direct sensing on 12 V, 24 V, and 30 V automotive/industrial rails without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Supply Current | 420 µA max - supports always-on monitoring in battery-powered systems with minimal standby drain. |
| ESD Protection | 4 kV HBM on Vp/Vm - ensures robustness against electrostatic discharge during assembly and field operation in automotive environments. |
| Operating Temp | –40 °C to +125 °C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1, suitable for under-hood and industrial ambient conditions. |
| Output Accuracy | ±4% max total error (Vsense = 50 mV, full temp range) - includes offset, gain, and linearity contributions for end-system accuracy budgeting. |
Pinout & Package
TSC102IYPT is housed in a RoHS-compliant, automotive-qualified TSSOP8 package (3.0 × 4.4 mm, 0.65 mm pitch), optimized for thermal performance (RthJA = 120 °C/W) and PCB space-constrained applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Vp | High-side shunt input (+) | Connects to positive side of sense resistor; withstands –16 V to +60 V transients. |
| Vm | High-side shunt input (–) | Connects to negative side of sense resistor; same ruggedness as Vp, differential input range ±20 V. |
| Gnd | Power ground reference | System ground return for supply and output stage; decoupling capacitor must be placed adjacent. |
| Vcc | Positive supply (3.5–5.5 V) | Independent of input common-mode; powers both amplifiers; low-noise LDO recommended. |
| Out | Main output node | Ground-referenced voltage proportional to (Vp–Vm); drives ADC inputs or downstream signal chains directly. |
| A1 | Current sense amp output | Internal node between sense amp and output buffer; accessible for custom feedback or cascaded conditioning. |
| A2 | Signal conditioning amp non-inv input | Non-inverting input of second op-amp; used for gain-setting, filtering, or comparator interface. |
| A3 | Signal conditioning amp inv input | Inverting input of second op-amp; configurable as summing node, integrator, or active filter input. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Independent VCM and VCC | Enables high-side sensing on 24 V bus while powered from 3.3 V MCU rail - eliminates need for isolated supplies or level shifters. |
| Reversed-battery tolerance | Survives –16 V on Vp/Vm - protects against battery misconnection in automotive ECUs without external diodes or TVS. |
| Integrated dual-amplifier topology | Reduces BOM count by replacing discrete current sense + op-amp solution - saves >3 mm² PCB area vs. SO8 dual-op-amp alternative. |
| 4 kV HBM ESD on sense inputs | Meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 for system-level surge immunity - avoids external ESD protection components in cost-sensitive designs. |
| Low 420 µA quiescent current | Supports continuous current monitoring in always-on vehicle modules (e.g., battery management) with <1 mW total dissipation at 5 V. |
Applications
| Battery Charger Monitoring | Automotive Body Control Module |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side current sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA240A1QDRQ1 | Higher CMR (120 dB), lower offset (±25 µV), but requires external VREF and has no integrated signal conditioning amp. | Requires additional op-amp for gain/offset adjustment; better for ultra-precision, worse for space-constrained designs. | Choose when offset drift <0.1 µV/°C is mandatory and PCB area allows extra components. |
| TSC101IYPT | Single-stage amplifier only (no A1/A2/A3 pins); 20 V/V gain, same package/temp grade, but lacks signal conditioning flexibility. | Cannot implement filtering or overcurrent protection without external circuitry; simpler but less versatile. | Choose when only basic current-to-voltage conversion is needed and design simplicity outweighs configurability. |
Compared with INA240A1QDRQ1, TSC102IYPT trades raw precision for integration and board space savings; compared with TSC101IYPT, it adds design flexibility at the cost of slightly higher quiescent current (420 µA vs. 380 µA) and complexity in layout due to three extra pins.

FAQ
What is the maximum survivable voltage on Vp and Vm pins?
The TSC102IYPT withstands –16 V to +60 V on Vp and Vm pins relative to GND, covering reversed-battery and load-dump conditions defined in ISO 7637-2. This rating applies continuously - not just as absolute maximum - and is validated per AEC-Q100 stress testing protocols.
Can the signal conditioning amplifier operate independently of the current sense stage?
Yes - the A2 and A3 pins form a fully functional op-amp with rail-to-rail input (0 V to VCC) and output swing within 185 mV of rails. It can be used standalone for general-purpose amplification, filtering, or comparison, with no dependency on Vp/Vm activity or current flow through the shunt.
Does TSC102IYPT require external compensation for stability?
No external compensation is required for unity-gain stable operation of the signal conditioning amplifier. Its GBP is 1 MHz with 65° phase margin into 100 pF load, and the current sense amplifier output is internally compensated for driving typical ADC input capacitance (≤47 pF) without oscillation.
How does the TSSOP8 package affect thermal performance in high-current applications?
The TSSOP8 package has RthJA = 120 °C/W. At 420 µA supply current and 5 V VCC, self-heating is negligible (<0.25 °C rise). However, if driving >5 mA into heavy loads via Out, localized heating may occur - use minimum 2 cm² copper pour under exposed pad (if present) and avoid routing high-current traces near pins.
