Abstract :
This paper presents a fully integrated current-sensing system (CSS) that is 10x more accurate than the state-of-the-art. It consists of an on-chip shunt resistor, a ΔΣ ADC and a bandgap reference (BGR), which also senses shunt temperature. For ±5A currents, it exhibits 12μA offset and ±0.25% gain error from -40 to +85°C. This level of accuracy is achieved with the help of multiple dynamic error correction techniques, a shunt temperature compensation scheme and chip-scale packaging for low thermal and electrical resistance.
