GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8212 is a high common-mode
voltage, current shunt monitor. It accurately amplifies a small differential input
voltage in the presence of large common-mode
voltages up to 65 V (>500 V with an external PNP transistor).
The AD8212 is ideal for current monitoring across a shunt resistor in applications controlling loads, such as motors and solenoids. The current output of the device is proportional to the input differential volt...
