10.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

The TMCS1100 application design procedure has two key design parameters: the sensitivity version chosen (A1-

A4) and the reference voltage input. Further consideration of noise and integration with an ADC can be explored,

but is beyond the scope of this application design example. The TMCS1100 transfer function is effectively a

transimpedance with a variable offset set by VREF, defined by Equation 26.

(26)

Design of the sensing solution first focuses on maximizing the sensitivity of the device while maintaining linear

measurement over the expected current input range. The linear output voltage range is constrained by the

TMCS1100 linear swing to ground, SwingGND, and swing to supply, SwingVS. With the previous parameters, the

maximum linear output voltage range is the range between VOUT,max and VOUT,min, as defined by Equation 27 and

Equation 28.

(28)

For a bidirectional motor phase current-sensing application, a sufficient linear output voltage range is required

from VREF to both ground and the power supply. Design parameters for this example application are shown in

Table 3 along with the calculated output range.

These design parameters result in a maximum linear output voltage swing of 4.65 V. To determine which

sensitivity variant of the TMCS1100 most fully uses this linear range, calculate the maximum current range by

Equation 29 for a unidirectional current (IU,MAX), and Equation 30 for a bidirectional current (IB,MAX).

In general, select the highest sensitivity variant that provides for the desired full-scale current range. For the

design parameters in this example, the TMCS1100A2 with a sensitivity of 0.1 V/A is the proper selection because

the maximum-calculated ±23.2 A linear measurable range is sufficient for the desired ±20-A full-scale current.
