hi,
i tried to sense 80 V dc using lv-25p, i initially tried for voltage value of 10V.but i am not obtaining voltage on the secondary side,
primary side resistance is 10k ohm 10W, and my secondary side resistance in 150 ohm, i designed them to obtain a voltage of 3V on the secondary side.
i tried varying the input but there is no change in the secondary side, also my dso is showing negative value..??

Wired as shown, the primary current should be 8mA if the sensed voltage is 80V. So far so good.
If I understand the datasheet correctly, the secondary current should therefore be 8*1000/2500 = 3.2mA, resulting in 0.48V across the 150 Ohms. How did you get the 3V figure? If you get 0V, either there's a wiring error or the IC is dead/fake.

Edit: Looking at the datasheet again, although the conversion ratio is stated to be 2500:1000, the nominal primary and secondary currents are 10mA and 25mA respectively, implying a conversion ratio of 1000:2500. Something is inconsistent :confused:. But that ratio should give 20mA secondary current and hence 3V across the 150 Ohms, as you said.
