Product details
Overview
TSC2011IST from STMicroelectronics is a precision bidirectional current sense amplifier with 60 V/V fixed gain, -20 to +70 V wide common-mode input range, ±200 µV max offset voltage, and operation from 2.7–5.5 V supply. It enables high-accuracy shunt-based current measurement in high-side or low-side configurations for industrial motor control and solenoid drive circuits.
For engineers reviewing the TSC2011IST datasheet, TSC2011IST pinout, TSC2011IST application, or TSC2011IST equivalent, key selection criteria include its 60 V/V gain accuracy (±0.3%), 5 µV/°C offset drift, SO8 package compatibility, and support for bidirectional sensing down to ±40 mV full-scale input at 0.3% gain error.
Technical Context
The TSC2011IST uses a precision instrumentation amplifier architecture with rail-to-rail output stage and internal laser-trimmed resistors to achieve 60 V/V gain with ≤0.3% error over -40°C to +125°C. Its differential input stage operates independently of supply voltage, enabling accurate sensing across -20 V to +70 V common-mode voltages regardless of VCC.
It integrates active shutdown (active-high SHDN pin), dual reference inputs (VREF1/VREF2) for ratiometric offset adjustment, and delivers 25 mA sink/source output drive into 10 kΩ loads. Small-signal bandwidth is 500 kHz (typ.) at VCC = 5 V, with 2.7 V/µs slew rate for 40 mV step response.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain | 60 V/V - fixed ratio converting shunt voltage to amplified output; supports ±40 mV full-scale sensing with ≤0.3% gain error. |
| Common-Mode Input Range | -20 V to +70 V - enables direct connection to high-side power rails up to 70 V without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Offset Voltage (RTI) | ±200 µV max - ensures <1% error at 20 mV sense voltage; critical for low-current detection in solenoid or sensor bias applications. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V logic systems; quiescent current as low as 20 µA in shutdown mode. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for industrial motor drives, PLC I/O modules, and automotive body control units. |
| Output Drive Capability | ±25 mA - sufficient to directly interface with ADC inputs, comparator thresholds, or microcontroller GPIOs without external buffers. |
| Small-Signal Bandwidth | 500 kHz (typ. at VCC = 5 V) - supports real-time current monitoring in PWM-driven motor phases up to ~50 kHz switching. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SO8 (Small Outline Integrated Circuit, 8-pin, 1.27 mm pitch, body size 4.9 mm × 3.9 mm).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 IN- | Negative input | Connects to shunt resistor low-side terminal; forms differential pair with IN+ for bidirectional current polarity detection. |
| 2 GND | Ground reference | Analog ground return for internal amplifiers; must be tied to system power ground with low-impedance path. |
| 3 VREF2 | Reference voltage 2 | Second reference input for ratiometric offset calibration; used with VREF1 to set output zero point. |
| 4 SHDN | Shutdown control | Active-high digital input; pulls output to high-impedance state and reduces supply current to 20 µA when low. |
| 5 OUT | Amplified output | Rail-to-rail voltage output proportional to (IN+ − IN−) × 60; drives ADCs, controllers, or protection comparators. |
| 6 VCC | Positive supply | Primary power input (2.7–5.5 V); powers internal amplifiers, reference circuitry, and output stage. |
| 7 VREF1 | Reference voltage 1 | First reference input for offset adjustment; parallel connection with VREF2 sets common-mode output baseline. |
| 8 IN+ | Positive input | Connects to shunt resistor high-side terminal; differential voltage across IN+/IN− defines sensed current direction and magnitude. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional sensing capability | Supports current flow in either direction through shunt; output swings above/below reference based on polarity-enables regenerative braking feedback in motor drives. |
| Wide common-mode rejection | 85–120 dB CMRR over DC–100 kHz ensures stable output despite noise on high-voltage bus lines (e.g., 48 V industrial rails). |
| Low offset drift | 5 µV/°C max ensures <10 µV total drift over 85°C temperature span-critical for unattended process control systems requiring long-term calibration stability. |
| Ratiometric reference inputs | VREF1/VREF2 allow precise zero-point setting independent of supply variation; enables true ratiometric measurement when referenced to ADC reference voltage. |
| Fast shutdown recovery | Turn-on time ≤6 µs (VCC = 5 V) minimizes latency when re-enabling current monitoring during fault-clear sequences in safety-critical inverters. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bidirectional current sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INA240A1QDRQ1 | 80 V/V gain, ±10 µV offset, 120 dB CMRR, SOIC-8; requires external reference for bidirectional operation. | Automotive AEC-Q100 qualified; higher gain but lacks integrated dual-reference inputs for ratiometric zeroing. | Select when AEC-Q100 compliance is mandatory and system-level reference routing is feasible. |
| MAX40056ATA+T | 65 V/V gain, ±150 µV offset, 105 dB CMRR, 8-pin TDFN; no shutdown pin, fixed VREF tied to VCC/2. | Space-constrained designs; smaller footprint but no independent shutdown control or flexible reference configuration. | Select for compact PCB layouts where shutdown functionality is handled externally and reference flexibility is not required. |
Compared with INA240A1QDRQ1 and MAX40056ATA+T, the TSC2011IST uniquely combines integrated dual-reference inputs for precise ratiometric offset tuning, active shutdown with 6 µs turn-on, and guaranteed 60 V/V gain accuracy across industrial temperature range-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, high-reliability industrial current monitoring where board space and calibration simplicity are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum common-mode voltage the TSC2011IST can handle?
The TSC2011IST supports a continuous common-mode input voltage range of -20 V to +70 V, verified per absolute maximum ratings in DS13057 Rev 8. This allows direct connection to high-side power rails up to 70 V without external level-shifting components, making it suitable for 48 V industrial buses and automotive 12 V/24 V systems with transient spikes.
Does the TSC2011IST require external resistors for gain setting?
No. The TSC2011IST has a factory-laser-trimmed fixed gain of 60 V/V; no external gain-setting resistors are needed. This eliminates resistor tolerance errors and layout sensitivity, ensuring consistent 0.3% gain accuracy across production lots and temperature-critical for calibrated current measurement systems.
How does the dual-reference input (VREF1/VREF2) function in practice?
VREF1 and VREF2 are internally connected to form a ratiometric offset adjustment node. When both pins are tied to the same voltage (e.g., VCC/2 or ADC reference), the output zero point is precisely centered, enabling true bidirectional output swing (e.g., 0.5 V to 4.5 V for 5 V supply). This eliminates need for external op-amps or DACs to set output baseline.
Can the TSC2011IST be used in high-frequency PWM applications?
Yes. With 500 kHz small-signal bandwidth (typ. at VCC = 5 V) and 2.7 V/µs slew rate, the TSC2011IST accurately tracks current transients in PWM-driven loads up to ~50 kHz switching frequency. Its 5 µs turn-off time and 6 µs turn-on time support fast enable/disable cycling in fault-recovery sequences without signal distortion.
