The AS8510 is a virtually offset free, low noise, two channel
measurement device. It is tailored to accurately measure battery
current from mA range up to kA range in conjunction with a 100 μΩ
shunt resistor in series with the battery rail. Through the second
measurement channel it enables capture of, either battery voltage
synchronous with the current measurement, or, measure the analog
output of an internal or external temperature sensor. Both channels
are matched and can either measure small signals up to ±160 mV
versus ground, through programmable gain amplifier or larger
signals in the 0 to 1V range without the amplifier.
After analog to digital conversion and digital filtering, the resulting
16-bit digital words are accessible through 4-wire standard serial
interface.The device includes a number of additional features
explained in the next section.
2 Key Features
- 3.3V supply voltage
- Two High resolution 16 bit Σ−Δ A/D converters
- Programmable sampling to enable data throughputs from less
