We are offering these breakout boards with support from Allegro Microsystems as an easy way to use or evaluate their ACS37030 DC to 5 MHz bandwidth, galvanically isolated, high-accuracy current sensors with reference output. The following list details some of the sensor’s key features:
- 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.
- High bandwidth (DC to 5 MHz) analog voltage output proportional to the current.
- 40 ns typical response time.
- Two current signal paths:
- Hall effect-based sensor for capturing DC and low-frequency current information
- Inductive coil for capturing high-frequency current information.
- 0.7 mΩ primary current path resistance in the sensor IC, and the PCB is made with 2-layer (compact versions) or 6-layer (large versions) 2-oz copper, so very little power is lost in the module.
- 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.
- Output is not ratiometric (i.e. the zero point and sensitivity are independent of the actual supply voltage), which provides immunity from noisy supplies.
- VREF output for pseudo-differential signaling in noisy application environments.
- Integrated digital temperature compensation circuitry allows improved accuracy over the full operating temperature range.
- Automotive-grade operating temperature range of -40°C to 150°C.
- Carrier boards, available in compact and large sizes, offer a variety of ways to insert it into the current path along with 0.1″-pitch (breadboard-compatible) power, ground, and output pins.
