Description

The ACS712 20A Current Sensor IC (ACS712ELCTR-20A-T) provides economical and precise solutions for AC or DC current sensing in industrial, commercial, and communications systems. The device consists of a precise, low-offset, linear Hall sensor circuit with a copper conduction path located near the surface of the die.
Applied current flowing through this copper conduction path generates a magnetic field that is sensed by the integrated Hall IC and converted into a proportional voltage. Device accuracy is optimized through the close proximity of the magnetic signal to the Hall transducer.
A precise, proportional voltage is provided by the low-offset, chopper-stabilized BiCMOS Hall IC, which is programmed for accuracy after packaging.
