Derivation of VOS, EXT for a Single Stage Current Sense Amplifier (CSA)

This derivation assumes a single-stage, linear CSA. Derivation first begins by determining VB (bias voltage across bias resistor) when load (IL) is 0A as this is essentially VOS, EXT RTI. Then this is divided by gain error factor (GEF) to get the referred-to-shunt offset error (VOS, EXT RTS). Note that this derivation also requires a more specific equation for GEF which assumes that the REXT value at each pin can be different.

Equation 28. VBUS - VREF - VB(RFBRINT) + VB(RSH+REXT2)RB - (ICM-IOS2)(RSH+REXT2) - IFB(RFI+RSH+REXT2) = 0

Equation 29. Let CEV = RFI + RSH + REXT2RFI + REXT1 = 1 + RSH + REXT2RFI1 + REXT1RFIVB = (VREF-VBUS)(1-CEV) + IB,CM ON( RSH+REXT2-REXT1CEV) - IOS2( RSH+REXT2+REXT1CEV)1 + (RSH+REXT2)(1RINT+1RBIAS) + REXT1CEVRBIASVB = VOS, EXT RTI when IL=0

Determine Gain Error Factor when REXT1 does not equal REXT2. You can simply remove ICM, ON, IOS sources, and set VCM and VREF sources to 0V as these only affect the offset. Gain is constant throughout operational VCM.
