The AD8418A is a high voltage, high resolution current shunt
amplifier. It features an initial gain of 20 V/V, with a maximum
±0.15% gain error over the entire temperature range. The buffered
output voltage directly interfaces with any typical converter. The
AD8418A offers excellent input common-mode rejection from
−2 V to +70 V. The AD8418A performs bidirectional current
measurements across a shunt resistor in a variety of automotive
and industrial applications, including motor control, power
management, and solenoid control.
The AD8418A offers breakthrough performance throughout
the −40°C to +150°C temperature range. It features a zero drift
core, which leads to a typical offset drift of 0.1 μV/°C throughout
the operating temperature range and the common-mode voltage
range. The AD8418A is qualified for automotive applications.
The device includes EMI filters and patented circuitry to enable
output accuracy with pulse-width modulation (PWM) type
input common-mode voltages. The typical input offset voltage
is ±100 μV. The AD8418A is offered in an 8-lead MSOP and an
8-lead SOIC_N package with a 10-lead MSOP pinout option
engineered for failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA).

AD8418A
THEORY OF OPERATION
The reference inputs, VREF1 and VREF2, are tied through 100 kΩ
resistors to the positive input of the main amplifier, which allows
the output offset to be adjusted anywhere in the output operating
range. The gain is 1 V/V from the reference pins to the output
when the reference pins are used in parallel. When the pins are
used to divide the supply, the gain is 0.5 V/V.
The AD8418A is a single-supply, zero drift, difference amplifier
that uses a unique architecture to accurately amplify small
differential current shunt voltages in the presence of rapidly
changing common-mode voltages.
In typical applications, the AD8418A measures current by
amplifying the voltage across a shunt resistor connected to its
inputs by a gain of 20 V/V (see Figure 29).
The AD8418A offers breakthrough performance without
compromising any of the robust application needs typical of
solenoid or motor control. The ability to reject PWM input
common-mode voltages and the zero drift architecture
providing low offset and offset drift allows the AD8418A to
deliver total accuracy for these demanding applications.
The AD8418A design provides excellent common-mode rejection,
even with PWM common-mode inputs that can change at very fast
rates, for example, 1 V/ns. The AD8418A contains proprietary
technology to eliminate the negative effects of such fast changing
external common-mode variations.
The AD8418A features an input offset drift of less than 400 nV/°C.
This performance is achieved through a novel zero drift
architecture that does not compromise bandwidth, which is
typically rated at 250 kHz.

OUTPUT OFFSET ADJUSTMENT
UNIDIRECTIONAL OPERATION
Unidirectional operation allows the AD8418A to measure
currents through a resistive shunt in one direction. The basic
modes for unidirectional operation are ground referenced output
mode and VS referenced output mode.
VS Referenced Output Mode
VS referenced output mode is set when both reference pins are tied
to the positive supply. It is typically used when the diagnostic
scheme requires detection of the amplifier and the wiring before
power is applied to the load (see Figure 31).
VS
For unidirectional operation, the output can be set at the negative
rail (near ground) or at the positive rail (near VS) when the
differential input is 0 V. The output moves to the opposite rail
when a correct polarity differential input voltage is applied. The
required polarity of the differential input depends on the output
voltage setting. If the output is set at the positive rail, the input
polarity needs to be negative to decrease the output. If the output is
set at ground, the polarity must be positive to increase the output.

BIDIRECTIONAL OPERATION
Bidirectional operation allows the AD8418A to measure currents
through a resistive shunt in two directions.
In this case, the output is set anywhere within the output range.
Typically, it is set at half-scale for equal range in both directions. In
some cases, however, it is set at a voltage other than half-scale
when the bidirectional current is nonsymmetrical.
AD8418A

OUT
Adjusting the output is accomplished by applying voltage(s) to
the referenced inputs. VREF1 and VREF2 are tied to internal resistors
that connect to an internal offset node. There is no operational
difference between the pins.
+
+IN
OUT
GND
When using the AD8418A in ground referenced output mode,
both referenced inputs are tied to ground, which causes the output
to sit at the negative rail when there are zero differential volts at the
input (see Figure 30).

EXTERNAL REFERENCED OUTPUT
Tying VREF1 and VREF2 together and to a reference produces an
output equal to the reference voltage when there is no differential
input (see Figure 32). The output decreases with respect to the
reference voltage when the input is negative, relative to the
–IN pin, and increases when the input is positive, relative to
the −IN pin.

Use the internal reference resistors to divide an external reference
by 2 with an accuracy of approximately 0.5%. Split an external
reference by connecting one VREFx pin to ground and the other
VREFx pin to the reference (see Figure 34).

By tying one reference pin to VS and the other to the ground pin,
the output is set at half of the supply when there is no differential
input (see Figure 33). The benefit of this configuration is that
an external reference is not required to offset the output for
bidirectional current measurement. Tying one reference pin to VS
and the other to the ground pin creates a midscale offset that is
ratiometric to the supply, which means that if the supply increases
or decreases, the output remains at half the supply. For example, if
the supply is 5.0 V, the output is at half scale or 2.5 V. If the supply
increases by 10% (to 5.5 V), the output increases to 2.75 V.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
MOTOR CONTROL
3-Phase Motor Control
The AD8418A is ideally suited for monitoring current in
3-phase motor applications.
The 250 kHz typical bandwidth of the AD8418A provides
instantaneous current monitoring. Additionally, the typical
low offset drift of 0.1 μV/°C means that the measurement error
between the two motor phases is at a minimum over temperature.
The AD8418A rejects PWM input common-mode voltages in
the −2 V to +70 V (with a 5 V supply) range. Monitoring the
current on the motor phase allows sampling of the current at
any point and provides diagnostic information, such as a short to
GND and battery. Refer to Figure 36 for the typical phase
current measurement setup with the AD8418A.
amp because ground is not typically a stable reference voltage
in this type of application. The instability of the ground reference
causes inaccuracies in the measurements that can be made with
a simple ground referenced op amp. The AD8418A measures
current in both directions as the H-bridge switches and the motor
changes direction. The output of the AD8418A is configured in
an external referenced bidirectional mode (see the Bidirectional
Operation section).

H-Bridge Motor Control
Another typical application for the AD8418A is to form part of
the control loop in H-bridge motor control. In this case, place
the shunt resistor in the middle of the H-bridge to accurately
measure current in both directions by using the shunt available
at the motor (see Figure 35). Using an amplifier and shunt in
this location is a better solution than a ground referenced op
