6.1 Overview

The TPS4141-Q1 is a high-voltage, precision matched resistor divider with an integrated programmable-gain amplifier. The TPS4141-Q1 also integrates a high-voltage switch to allow for connecting or disconnecting the high-voltage sense pin and provides uni-directional current blocking when disconnected. The device is designed for automotive and industrial applications where accurate, high-voltage measurements are required.

As seen in the Functional Block Diagram section, the TPS4141-Q1 integrates a high-voltage switch, two high-voltage resistors that form a precision matched divider, and a programmable gain amplifier (PGA). When the switch is enabled, a resistance (RTOTAL) is presented between HV to HVGND or HV to REF.

The programmable gain amplifier has different gain settings. The gain settings, selectable via DIV0 and DIV1, in combination with the resistor divider, form an overall divide ratio (DIV) of the voltage present on the high-voltage pin (HV referenced to HVGND or REF). The resulting attenuated voltage is presented on AOUT relative to HVGND or REF. Four different divider ratios are possible. The divider ratios can be configured to be fixed via the DIV0 and DIV1 applied voltages or can be changed dynamically in the application.
