Current sensing options, SNS+, SNS-

Category: Hardware
Product Number: LTC7000A

Hello community,

I may need your help understanding something about the LTC7000A current sensing capabilities, beyond the datasheet.

I am interested in 3 things:

  1. Is it possible with the SNS pins to measure current in a bidirectional way?

  2. How is this driver reacting in case of a short to GND on the input side?

  3. Is it possible to connect the external MOSFET with its Drain towards the output, instead of the Source?

Many thanks! Kind regards!
