Note 4: A heat sink may be required to keep the junction temperature
below the absolute maximum rating.
Note 5: The LT1999C/LT1999I are guaranteed functional over the operating
temperature range –40°C to 85°C. The LT1999H is guaranteed functional
over the operating temperature range –40°C to 125°C. The LT1999MP is
guaranteed functional over the operating temperature range –55°C to 150°C.
Junction temperatures greater than 125°C will promote accelerated aging.
The LT1999 has a demonstrated typical life beyond 1000 hours at 150°C.
Note 6: The LT1999C is guaranteed to meet specified performance from
0°C to 70°C. The LT1999C is designed, characterized, and expected to
meet specified performance from –40°C to 85°C but is not tested or
QA sampled at these temperatures. The LT1999I is guaranteed to meet
specified performance from –40°C to 85°C. The LT1999H is guaranteed
to meet specified performance from –40°C to 125°C. The LT1999MP is
guaranteed to meet specified performance from –55°C to 150°C.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed underAbsolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: Pin 2 (+IN) and Pin 3 (–IN) are protected by ESD voltage clamps
which have asymmetric bidirectional breakdown characteristics with respect
to the GND pin (Pin 5). These pins can safely support common mode
voltages which vary from –5.25V to 88V without triggering an ESD clamp.
Note 3: Exposure to differential sense voltages exceeding the normal
operating range for extended periods of time may degrade part
performance. A heat sink may be required to keep the junction temperature
below the Absolute Maximum Rating when the inputs are stressed
differentially. The amount of power dissipated in the LT1999 due to input
overdrive can be approximated by:

Note 7: Full-scale sense (VSENSE) gives indication of the maximum
differential input that can be applied with better than 0.5% gain accuracy.
Gain accuracy is degraded when the output saturates against either power
supply rail. VSENSE is verified with V+ = 5.5V, VCM = 12V, with the REF pin
set to it’s voltage range limits. The maximum VSENSE is verified with the
REF pin set to it’s minimum specified limit, verifying the gain error is less
than 0.5% at the output. The minimum VSENSE is verified with the REF pin
set to its maximum specified limit, verifying the gain error at the output is
less than 0.5%. See Note 9 for more information.
Note 8: IB is defined as the average of the input bias currents to the +IN
and –IN pins (Pins 2 and 3). A positive current indicates current flowing
into the pin. IOS is defined as the difference of the input bias currents.
IOS = I(+IN) – I(–IN)
Note 9: The REF pin voltage range is the minimum and maximum limits
that ensures the input referred voltage offset does not exceed ±3mV over
the I, C, and H temperature ranges, and ±3.5mV over the MP temperature
range.
Note 10: Common mode recovery time is defined as the time it takes the
output of the LT1999 to recover from a 50V, 20ns input common mode
voltage transition, and settle to within the DC amplifier specifications.
Note 11: Operating the LT1999 with V+ < 4.5V is possible, although the
LT1999 is not tested or specified in this condition. See the Applications
Information section.

PIN FUNCTIONS
(LT1999-XX/LT1999-XXF)
V+ (Pins 1, 4/Pin 4): Power Supply Voltage. Pins 1 and 4
are tied internally together. The specified range of operation is 4.5V to 5.5V, but lower supply voltages (down to
approximately 4V) is possible although the LT1999 is not
tested or characterized below 4.5V. See the Applications
Information section.
+IN (Pin 2/Pin 1): Positive Sense Input Pin.
–IN (Pin 3/Pin 2): Negative Sense Input Pin.
NC (NA/Pin 3)
GND (Pin 5/Pin 5): Ground Pin.
REF (Pin 6/Pin 6): Reference Pin Input. The REF pin
sets the output common mode level and is set halfway
between V+ and GND using a divider made of two 160k
resistors. The default open circuit potential of the REF pin
is mid-supply. It can be overdriven by an external voltage
source cable of driving 80k to a mid-supply potential (see
the Electrical Characteristics table for its specified input
voltage range).
OUT (Pin 7/Pin 7): Voltage Output. VOUT = AV •(VSENSE ±
VOSI), where AV is the gain, and VOSI is the input referred
offset voltage. The output amplifier has a low impedance
output and is designed to drive up to 200pF capacitive
loads directly. Capacitive loads exceeding 200pF should
be decoupled with an external resistor of at least 100Ω.
SHDN (Pin 8/Pin 8): Shutdown Pin. When pulled to within
0.5V of GND (Pin 5), will place the LT1999 into low power
shutdown. If the pin is left floating, an internal 2µA pullup current source will place the LT1999 into the active
(amplifying) state.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The LT1999 current sense amplifier provides accurate
bidirectional monitoring of current through a userselected sense resistor. The voltage generated by the
current flowing in the sense resistor is amplified by a
fixed gain of 10V/V, 20V/V or 50V/V (LT1999-10, LT199920, or LT1999-50 respectively) and is level shifted to the
OUT pin. The voltage difference and polarity of the OUT
pin with respect to REF (Pin 6) indicates magnitude and
direction of the current in the sense resistor.
Refer to the Block Diagram (Figure 1.
Case 1: V+ < VCM < 80V
For input common mode voltages exceeding the power
supply, one can assume D1 ofFigure 1 is completely off.
The sensed voltage (VSENSE) is applied across Pin 2 (+IN)
and Pin 3 (–IN) to matched resistors R+IN and R–IN (nominally 4k each). The opposite ends of R+IN and R– IN are
forced to equal potentials by transconductor GIN, which
convert the differentially sensed voltage into a sensed
current. The sensed current in R+IN and R–IN is combined,
level-shifted, and converted back into a voltage by transresistance amplifier AO and resistor RG. Amplifier AO
provides high open loop gain to accurately convert the
sensed current back into a voltage and to drive external
loads. The theoretical output voltage is determined by
the sensed voltage (VSENSE), and the ratio of two on-chip
resistors:
The voltage difference between the OUT pin and the REF
pin represent both polarity and magnitude of the sensed
voltage. The noninverting input of amplifier AO is biased
by a resistive 160k to 160k divider tied between V+ and
GND to set the default REF pin bias to mid-supply.
Case 2: –5V < VCM < V+
THEORY OF OPERATION
VOUT − VREF = VSENSE •
For the LT1999-10, RG is nominally 40k. For the LT1999-20,
RG is nominally 80k, and for the LT1999-50, RG is nominally 200k.
RG
RIN
where
R + R −IN
RIN = +IN
nominally 4k
2
For common mode inputs which transition or are set below
the supply voltage, diode D1 will turn on and will provide a
source of current through R+S and R –S to bias the inputs
of transconductance amplifier GIN at least 2.25V above
GND. The transition is smooth and continuous; there are
negligible changes to either gain or amplifier voltage offset. The only difference in amplifier operation is the bias
currents provided by D1 through R+S and R–S are steered
through the input pins, otherwise amplifier operation is
identical. The inputs to transconductance amplifier GIN
are still forced to equal potentials forcing any differential
voltages appearing at the +IN and –IN pins into a differential current. This differential current is combined,
level-shifted, and converted back into a voltage by transresistance amplifier AO and Resistor RG. Resistors R+S
and R–S are trimmed to match R+IN and R–IN respectively,
to prevent common mode to differential conversion from
occurring (to the extent of the matched trim) when the
input common mode transitions below V+.
As described in case 1, the output is determined by the
sense voltage and the ratio of two on-chip resistors:
VOUT − VREF = VSENSE •

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Input Common Mode Range
–2.0
With the V+ supply configured within the specified and
tested range (4.5V < V+ < 5.5V), the LT1999’s common
mode range extends from –5V to 80V. Pushing +IN and
–IN beyond the limits specified in the Absolute Maximum
table can turn on the voltage clamps designed to protect
the +IN and –IN pins during ESD events.
It is possible to operate the LT1999 on power supplies
as low as 4V (although it is not tested or specified below
4.5V). Operating the LT1999 on supplies below 4V will
produce erratic behavior. When operating the LT1999
with supplies as low as 4V, the common mode range for
inputs which extend below GND is reduced. Refer to the
Block Diagram (Figure 1). For inputs driven below V+,
diode D1 conducts. For proper operation, the input to the
transconductor V(G+IN) must be biased at approximately
2.25V above the GND pin. V(G+IN) sits on the centertap
of a voltage divider comprised of R+S and R+IN V(G –IN)
likewise sits in the middle of the voltage divider comprised
of R – S , and R–IN). The voltage on V(G+IN) input is given
by the following equation:
V(G +IN) = V +IN•

Setting V(G+IN) = 2.25V, the ratio (R+IN /R+S) to 5, and VD1
equal to 0.8V (cold temperatures), a plot of the lower input
common mode range plotted against supply is shown in
Figure 3.

The LT1999 was optimized for high common mode rejection. Its input stage is balanced and fully differential,
designed to amplify differential signals and reject common mode signals. There is negligible crossover distortion due to sense voltage reversals. The amplifier is most
linear in the zero-sense region.

Figure 3. Lower Input Common Mode vs Supply Voltage
Output Common Mode Range
The LT1999’s output common mode level is set by the
voltage on the REF pin. The REF pin sits in the middle of
a 160k to 160k voltage divider connected between V+ and
GND which sets the default open circuit potential of the
REF pin to mid-supply. It can be overdriven by an external
voltage source capable of driving 80k tied to a mid-supply
potential. See the Electrical Characteristics table for the
REF pin’s specified input voltage range.
Differential sampling of the OUT pin with respect the REF
pin provides the best noise immunity. Measurements of
the output voltage made differentially with respect to the
REF pin will provide the highest power supply and common mode rejection. Otherwise, power supply or GND
pin disturbances are divided by the REF pin’s voltage
divider and appear directly at the noninverting input of
the trans-resistance amplifier AO and are not rejected.
If not driven by a low impedance ( 5V, OUT will be at 5V. In the range of 4V < –IN < 5V, OUT may go to either
V+ or GND, depending on the voltage applied to +IN. The open input (–IN) is biased internal to the IC to one
diode below V+.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Fuse Monitor
The inputs can be overdriven without fear of damaging
the LT1999. This makes the LT1999 ideal for monitoring
fuses if either +IN or –IN are shorted to ground while the
other is at the full common mode supply voltage (see
Figure 6). If the fuse in Figure 6 opens with the +IN tied
to the positive supply, the load will pull –IN to GND. The
output will be forced to the positive V+ supply rail. If it is
desired that the output be near ground if the fuse opens,
it is a simple matter of swapping the inputs. Precautions
should be followed: First, when the inputs are stressed
differentially due to the fuse blowing open, a large voltage
drop will be placed across the +IN to –IN pins, dissipating

Finally, the user should be aware that in fuse monitoring

should be taken to prevent junction temperatures from
exceeding the Absolute Maximum ratings (see Note 3 in
the Electrical Characteristics section). Secondly, if the
load is inductive, and the fuse blows open without a clamp
diode, energy stored in the inductive load will be dissipated in the LT1999, which could cause damage. A simple
steering diode as shown in Figure 6 will prevent this from
happening, and will protect the LT1999 from damage.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Solenoid Current Monitor
Bidirectional PWM Motor Monitor
The solenoid of Figure 8 consists of a coil of wire in an
iron case with permeable plunger that acts as a movable element. When the MOSFET turns on, the diode is
reversed biased off, and current flows through RSENSE to
actuate the solenoid. If the MOSFET is turned off, the current in the MOSFET is interrupted, but the energy stored
in the solenoid causes the diode to turn on and current
to freewheel in the loop consisting of the diode, RSENSE
and the solenoid.
Pulse width modulation is commonly used to efficiently
vary the average voltage applied across a DC motor. The
H-bridge topology of Figure 10 allows full 4-quadrant
control: clockwise control, counter-clockwise control,
clockwise regeneration, and counter-clockwise regeneration. The LT1999 in conjunction with a non-inductive
current shunt is used to monitor currents in the rotor.
The LT1999 can be used to detect stuck rotors, provide
detection of overcurrent conditions in general, or provide
current mode feedback control.
Figure 8 shows the LT1999 monitoring currents in a
ground referenced solenoid used when the coil is hard
tied to the case, and is tied to ground. Figure 9 shows a
supply referenced solenoid whose coil is insulated from
the case. The LT1999 will interface equally well to either
of these two configurations.
