ACS72981 Current Sensor Compact Carriers
We are offering these breakout boards with support from Allegro Microsystems as an easy way to use or evaluate their ACS72981xLR Hall effect-based, electrically isolated current sensors. The following list details some of the sensor’s key features:
- Hall effect-based sensor with electrically isolated current path allows the sensor to be inserted anywhere along the current path and to be used in applications that require electrical isolation.
- Differential Hall sensing rejects common-mode fields, so the orientation of the sensor relative to uniform external magnetic fields (e.g. the Earth’s magnetic field) has less effect on the measurement.
- The conductive path internal resistance is typically 0.2 mΩ, and the PCB is made with 6 layers of 2-oz copper, so very little power is lost in the module.
- High-bandwidth 250 kHz analog output voltage proportional to AC or DC currents.
- Less than 2 µs response time.
- Integrated digital temperature compensation circuitry allows improved accuracy over the full operating temperature range.
- Compact (0.7″×0.8″) carrier board offers a variety of ways to insert it into the current path along with 0.1″-pitch (breadboard-compatible) power, ground, and output pins.
- 3.3V and 5V versions available.
- Unidirectional and bidirectional versions available.
These sensors are the compact versions, which feature smaller 0.7″×0.8″ boards for integration into more space-constrained applications or for evaluation of the IC’s performance with a smaller PCB area for thermal dissipation. Larger versions are also available with space for larger connectors and thicker wires for the high-current path.
