This single-supply, low-side, current sensing solution accurately detects load current between 0 and 1A. The current sensor measures 0 to 1A across the shunt resistor, providing 0 to 4.9V output. The OPA320 features wide bandwidth and low offset voltage making it an excellent amplifier for this design. With a single 5V supply, the LM7705 negative bias generator extends the linear output range of the amplifier below 0V. This enables the op-amp to produce a linear output for a zero-input current condition. The wide sensing range of the design allows for precise measurement of small load currents (i.e., low-power or shutdown modes) and higher currents up to 1A. The LM7705 functions as an inverting charge pump and regulates its output to -0.23V when powered by a single supply. By biasing the negative supply (VS-) of the op-amp to -0.23V, the linear output range of the device is extended below 0V. A linear output at 0V allows a calibrated measurement of zero-input current.
