Detailed Design Procedure

The V-I transfer function of the circuit is based on the relationship between the input voltage, VIN, and the three current sensing resistors, RS1, RS2, and RS3. The relationship between VIN and RS1 determines the current that flows through the first stage of the design. The current gain from the first stage to the second stage is based on the relationship between RS2 and RS3.

For a successful design, pay close attention to the dc characteristics of the operational amplifier chosen for the application. To meet the performance goals, this application benefits from an operational amplifier with low offset voltage, low temperature drift, and rail-to-rail output. The OPA2333-Q1 CMOS operational amplifier is a high-precision, 5-µV offset, 0.05-μV/°C drift amplifier optimized for low-voltage, single-supply operation with an output swing to within 50 mV of the positive rail. The OPA2333-Q1 uses chopping techniques to provide low initial offset voltage and near-zero drift over time and temperature. Low offset voltage and low drift reduce the offset error in the system, making these devices appropriate for precise dc control. The rail-to-rail output stage of the OPA2333-Q1 makes sure that the output swing of the operational amplifier is able to fully control the gate of the MOSFET devices within the supply rails.

A detailed error analysis, design procedure, and additional measured results are given in the High-Side V-I Converter reference design.
