Description
The ZXCT1008 is a high side current sense monitor. Using this device eliminates the need to disrupt the ground plane when sensing a load current.
It takes a high side voltage developed across a current shunt resistor and translates it into a proportional output current. A user defined output resistor scales the output current into a ground referenced voltage.
