We are offering these breakout boards with support from Allegro Microsystems as an easy way to use or evaluate their ACS37200 Hall effect-based, electrically isolated current sensors with user-configurable overcurrent fault output. 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.
- Extra-low primary current path resistance of 0.05 mΩ in the sensor IC for higher efficiency.
- 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.
- 150 kHz bandwidth analog output voltage proportional to AC or DC currents.
- Less than 4 µs response time.
- Output is not ratiometric (i.e. the zero point and sensitivity are independent of the actual supply voltage), which provides immunity from noisy supplies.
- User-configurable overcurrent fault output with 3 µs response time indicates when the current magnitude exceeds the set threshold and can be used for fast short-circuit detection.
- 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 board includes routed slots for increased creepage along the PCB surface and offers a variety of ways to insert it into the current path along with 0.1″-pitch (breadboard-compatible) power, ground, and output pins.
- Optional connection points for convenient 4-wire measurement of the IC current path resistance.
