2.3.3 AMC0106M05

The AMC0106M05 and AMC0106M25 are precision, functionally isolated, second-order delta-sigma modulators designed for shunt-based current sensing. The M05 version supports a linear input range of ±50mV.

The isolation barrier separates parts of the system that operate on different common-mode voltage levels. The AMC0106M05 modulators are specifically designed for low-voltage applications, are functionally isolated, and come in a small, 2.7mm × 3.5mm leadless package with 1mm creepage and clearance. With the small package size, the AMC0106Mxx isolated modulators enable small PCB layouts that are essential for small form-factor motor drives in robotic applications.

Table 2-3 AMC0106M05 Features and Benefits
FEATURE BENEFIT
Low noise, second-order delta-sigma modulator Enables precise current sensing up to 14 effective number of bits (ENOB)
Offset drift: ±3µV/°C (maximum) Allows precise current sensing over entire temperature range without temperature-dependent calibration
High CMTI: 150V/ns (minimum) Accurate current measurement even during PWM switching and PWM frequencies of 100kHz and above
Digital interface High EMC immunity, transient ground noise between modulator and MCU does not impact the measurement accuracy
Small, 2.7mm × 3.5mm leadless package Reduces PCB space and enables smaller servo drives and robotics
