Figure 8-3 shows the complete OPAx186 high-side current monitor. The circuit is capable of monitoring a current

range of < 1 A to 11 A, with a VCM very close to the 24-V supply voltage.

In this example, the OPAx186 output voltage is intentionally limited to 3.3 V. However, because of the 24-V

supply, the output voltage can be much higher to allow for a higher-voltage data converter with a higher dynamic

range.

The circuit in Figure 8-3 was checked using the TINA Spice circuit simulation tool to verify the correct operation

of the OPAx186 high-side current monitor. The simulation results are seen in Figure 8-4. The performance is

exactly as expected. Upon careful inspection of the plots, one possible surprise is that VO continues towards

zero as the sense current drops below 1 A, where VO is 300 mV and less.

Figure 8-4. OPAx186 High-Side Current-Monitor Simulation Schematic

The OPAx186 output, as well as other CMOS output amplifiers, often swing closer to 0 V than the linear

output parameters suggest. The voltage output swing, VO (see the Electrical Characteristics table), is not an

indication of the linear output range, but rather how close the output can move towards the supply rail. In that

region, the amplifier output approaches saturation, and the amplifier ceases to operate linearly. Thus, in the

current-monitor application, the current-measurement capability can continue to much less than the 300-mV

output level. However, keep in mind that the linearity errors are becoming large.
