Introduction

The 

STEVAL-AETKT2V1

 evaluation kit implements bidirectional current sense amplifiers by placing a sense resistor either in

the high side or in the low side.

The 

STEVAL-AETKT2V1

 kit consists of a mother board and two different daughter boards for different gain configurations.

TSC21x family implements zero drift technology and is specially designed to accurately measure current by amplifying the
voltage across a shunt resistor connected to its input. The voltage drop (V

sense

) is then amplified by an amplifier.

Thanks to the use of thin film resistors, TSC21x offers an extremely precise gain and very high CMRR performance.

Moreover, thanks to the possibility of fixing the output common mode voltage through a reference pin, the TSC21x can be either
used as unidirectional or bidirectional current sensing amplifier.
