High-Side Current Monitor With 10-Bit Serial Digital Output

The MX884 targets Power Management applications where high noise immunity and low cost are primary requirements. Its integrated 10-bit ADC provides high resolution, making it ideal for current monitoring systems. The MX884 enables digital Power Management in which a Microcontroller CAN readily monitor the current in a system and perform other control functions in power systems and motion control products. The MX884 converts a small voltage developed across an external crrent sese resistor to a 10- bit digital output. It features a wide common mode input supply voltage range of 3V to 60V and easily Interfaces to most Microcontrollers The design is simple yet cost-effective, requiring very few external components, making it especially suitable for high volume applications.
