Precision Current-Sense Amplifier
The MAX9938 allows two methods of filtering to help
improve performance in the presence of input common-
mode voltage and input differential voltage transients.
Figure 1 shows a differential input filter.
The capacitor CIN between RS+ and RS- along with the
resistor RIN between the sense resistor and RS- helps
filter against input differential voltages and prevents
them from reaching the MAX9938.
The corner frequency of this filter is determined by the
choice of RIN, CIN, and the value of the input resis-
tance at RS- (R
ferent gain options.
The value of RIN should be chosen to minimize its
effect on the input offset voltage due to the bias current
at RS-. RIN x I

Placing RIN at the RS- input does not affect the gain
error of the device because the gain is given by the
ratio between R
