MAX44286
Low-Power, Precision, 4-Bump WLP,
Current-Sense Amplifier
General Description
Features and Benefits
● Ultra-Low Input Offset Voltage and Tiny Gain Error
The MAX44286 is a zero-drift, high-side current-sense
amplifier family that offers precision, low supply cur-
rent and is available in a tiny 4-bump ultra-thin WLP of
0.78mm x 0.78mm x 0.35mm footprint. This miniature size
is of paramount for today’s applications in smartphones,
mobile accessories, notebooks, portable medical, and all
battery-operated portable devices where current monitor-
ing with precision and space are critical.

The MAX44286 has voltage output offered in four gain
versions of 25V/V, 50V/V, 100V/V, and 200V/V. These
four gain versions offer flexibility in the choice of the
sense resistor and the very low input offset voltage helps
in detecting small currents on the orders of low micro-
amps. Low power capability also offers the possibility of
minimizing power dissipation.
● Industry-Leading Low-Power Supply Range

G = 25V/V (MAX44286T)
G = 50V/V (MAX44286F)
G = 100V/V (MAX44286H)
G = 200V/V (MAX44286W)
The MAX44286 operates with a supply voltage range
of 1.6V to 5.5V over the -40°C to +85°C temperature
range and from 1.8V to 5.5V over the -40°C to +125°C
automotive temperature range. Supply voltage for the
device is shared with the RS+ pin to fit the MAX44286 in
a 4-bump, ultra-thin WLP package.
