Product details
Overview
ZXCT1110W5-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a high-side unipolar current sense monitor in SOT-25 (5-pin SOT23) package, featuring 4mA/V transconductance, ±1.8% transconductance error, and 3µA quiescent current. It operates from 2.5V to 36V common-mode input range and delivers output current proportional to sensed differential voltage across a shunt resistor - used in automotive battery management, industrial 24V power rails, and overcurrent protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the ZXCT1110W5-7 datasheet, ZXCT1110W5-7 pinout, ZXCT1110W5-7 application, or ZXCT1110W5-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its separate GND pin (vs. ZXCT1107/09), 40µA ±4µA output offset at 10mV VSENSE, -40°C to +125°C operation, and compatibility with low-power microcontroller ADC interfaces via external RGAIN resistor.
Technical Context
The ZXCT1110 implements a high-side current sensing architecture with dedicated GND pin for improved output offset control and reduced measurement error versus 3-pin variants. Its internal transconductance amplifier converts VSENSE = VS+ − VS− into a proportional output current referenced to GND.
It requires no external supply rail - powered directly from the sensed high-side rail (VS+) - and supports linear operation from 0 to 500mV VSENSE with guaranteed monotonicity. The device's 0.65MHz small-signal bandwidth and 0.1–0.4µA/V common-mode rejection enable stable performance in noisy industrial environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Transconductance (GT) | 4.0 mA/V ±1.8% - defines precise IOUT = GT × VSENSE scaling for accurate current-to-voltage conversion |
| Output Offset Current (IOO) | ±4 µA at VSENSE = 10 mV - enables low-error baseline correction in precision monitoring |
| Quiescent Current (IQ) | 3 µA - minimizes parasitic loading on high-side rail and preserves system efficiency |
| Common-Mode Input Range | 2.5 V to 36 V - supports direct sensing on 12V/24V/36V industrial and automotive rails without level-shifting |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control cabinet deployment |
| Small-Signal Bandwidth | 0.65 MHz - sufficient for fast transient detection in overcurrent fault response (<1.5 µs rise time) |
| Supply Independence | No external VCC required - powered solely by sensed rail (VS+), simplifying BOM and layout |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT-25 (5-pin SOT23), surface-mount, RoHS-compliant, thermal pad not present.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (NC) | No Connection | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout best practice |
| 2 (GND) | Ground Reference | Substrate and output current return path; separates output reference from high-side rail for lower offset error |
| 3 (OUT) | Current Output | Sinks proportional current (IOUT = GT × VSENSE); connects to RGAIN for voltage conversion |
| 4 (S+) | Positive Sense Input | High-side shunt terminal; supplies internal circuitry and accepts up to 36V common-mode voltage |
| 5 (S−) | Negative Sense Input | Shunt return terminal; forms differential pair with S+; input bias current ≤100 nA at 25°C |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dedicated GND pin | Enables true ground-referenced output current, reducing offset drift vs. 3-pin variants that share OUT/GND |
| Ultra-low IQ (3 µA) | Minimizes impact on measured load current and eliminates need for shutdown control in always-on systems |
| Wide 2.5–36 V common-mode range | Supports direct integration into 12V automotive, 24V PLC, and 36V solar charge controller rails |
| Linear transconductance up to 500 mV VSENSE | Ensures predictable IOUT scaling across full dynamic range without clipping or gain compression |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified | Validated for automotive applications requiring −40°C to +125°C operation and robust reliability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side current monitor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX4080TASA+ | Higher supply current (75µA), 8-pin SOIC, fixed 20V/V gain; requires external VCC | Less suitable for ultra-low-power or space-constrained designs; better for fixed-gain voltage-output use cases | Select when voltage-output interface and higher accuracy at 25°C are prioritized over quiescent power and board area |
| INA219AIDR | I²C digital output, integrated ADC, 1% gain error, 26V max common-mode, 1mA IQ | Requires MCU firmware support; adds communication overhead but eliminates external signal conditioning | Select when digital BOM consolidation, multi-parameter telemetry (V, I, P), or calibration flexibility outweigh analog simplicity |
Compared with ZXCT1110W5-7, MAX4080TASA+ trades 25× higher IQ and larger footprint for fixed-gain voltage output, while INA219AIDR replaces analog simplicity with digital configurability and higher power - making ZXCT1110W5-7 optimal for cost-sensitive, low-power, analog-integrated high-side sensing where GND-referenced linearity is critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable differential sense voltage (VSENSE) for continuous operation?
The ZXCT1110W5-7 supports continuous operation up to 500 mV VSENSE, with guaranteed linearity and monotonic output current. Absolute maximum rating is 800 mV, but operation beyond 500 mV risks increased transconductance error and nonlinearity per datasheet Table 2. For reliable design, limit VSENSE to ≤500 mV.
Can ZXCT1110W5-7 be used in bidirectional current sensing applications?
No - the ZXCT1110W5-7 is a unidirectional high-side current monitor optimized for positive VSENSE (VS+ > VS−). It does not support reverse current detection or negative VSENSE. For bidirectional sensing, a dual-supply or dedicated bidirectional IC like INA226 is required.
How does the NC pin (Pin 1) affect PCB layout and thermal performance?
Pin 1 is internally unconnected and must remain floating or be tied to GND for ESD robustness; it provides no thermal relief. Thermal dissipation relies solely on pins 2 (GND) and 4 (S+), so copper pour under the package should connect to GND and S+ pads per Diodes' layout guidelines to maintain θJA ≤ 200°C/W.
Is an external gain-setting resistor (RGAIN) mandatory for functional operation?
No - RGAIN is optional and only required if a voltage output is needed. The ZXCT1110W5-7 outputs a current (IOUT) inherently; this can be fed directly into a transimpedance amplifier, comparator, or current-input ADC. RGAIN converts IOUT to VOUT = IOUT × RGAIN, enabling compatibility with standard voltage-input interfaces.
