Overview

The MAX9634TEUK+T is an ultra-low-power, high-side current-sense amplifier designed for monitoring electrical current in battery-powered systems. It features a remarkably low supply current of 1.1uA and operates across a wide input common-mode range of 1.6V to 28V. This device is specifically engineered to minimize power drain while maintaining a high input offset voltage accuracy of 100uV.

Why Choose This Part

The primary advantage is its extremely low 1.1uA supply current, which is significantly lower than standard current-sense amplifiers. It offers a 125 kHz bandwidth and high precision with a low 100uV offset voltage, all within a compact SOT-23-5 package.

Applications

Battery-Powered Handheld Equipment
Ideal for smartphones and tablets where minimizing standby current is critical for long battery life.
Power Management Systems
Used in notebook computers and portable medical devices to monitor charging and discharging cycles.
Precision Current Monitoring
Suitable for low-side or high-side sensing in systems requiring a 0.5 percent accuracy rating.
