2.2.2 AC Input Current Sensing

For appliance applications, usually DC minus is the reference point for the whole system, since Intelligent Power Module (IPM) for the compressor and fan motor inverter stay at the same reference point. However, there is a high common voltage for the AC current sensing of the PFC, so an isolated amplifier AMC3302 is implemented. AMC3302 has fixed gain of 41, and the input voltage range is ±50 mV. The typical common-mode output voltage is 1.44 V; however, since the ADC reference voltage is 3.3 V, the alternative signal has to move to be centered at 1.65 V, so an additional amplifier TLV9062 is implemented to provide this bias. The shunt resistors used are two 2512, 0.002 Ω in parallel. AMC3302 has a gain of 41, TLV9062 has a 0.72723 gain, so the total gain is 29.818. The final input current sense ratio is 0.029818 V/A, input current sensing rage is –55.34 A to +55.34 A.
