LM3812 Datasheet Precision Current Gauge-ic

Manufacturer: National Semiconductor (now Texas Instruments)

Overview: LM3812/LM3813 Precision Current Gauge IC with Ultra Low Loss Sense Element and PWM Output June 1999 LM3812/LM3813 Precision Current Gauge IC with Ultra Low Loss Sense Element and PWM.

This datasheet includes multiple variants, all published together in a single manufacturer document.

General Description

The LM3812/LM3813 Current Gauges provide easy to use precision current measurement with virtually zero insertion loss (typically 0.004Ω).

The LM3812 is used for high-side sensing and the LM3813 is used for low-side sensing.

A Delta Sigma analog to digital converter is incorporated to precisely measure the current and to provide a current averaging function.

Key Features
