AMC1306E25: estimate the error in voltage sense application

Part Number: AMC1306E25
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AMC1336, AMC1306M05

Hi there,

I knew the input impedance of AMC1306 is small, so I'm promoting AMC1336 for bus voltage sense. But I would like to confirm the error level of AMC1306. In the evaluation of AMC1306 design, the resistance divider is 1Mohm and 1kohm, the series resistor to AINN is 1kohm. The to-be-measured bus voltage is 61V DC. I saw, in the test result, the 8bits LSB is the level of error. I don't know if this error level is correct for AMC1306 itself. I'm checking this to confirm if there is other big error sources besides the AMC1306 itself in this design, so that I can move forward to P2P replace it with AMC1336.

Thanks.  

  • Hi Jerry,

    Based on the 61V DC, 1Mohm R1 and 1kohm R3, I assume that you are using the 50mV version of the device?

    Looks likes you are also implementing the R3' resistance to compensate for low input impedance as well. 

    Promoting the AMC1336 over the AMC1306M05 is the correct choice in this case since you have a high impedance node you are trying to measure. 

    I'll contact you offline in regards to additional detail.
