Schematic of the ACS712 Current Sensor Circuit (tested circuit diagram of the current sensor module) The internal resistance of this conductive path is 1.2 mΩ typical, providing low power loss. The do ...

The linear current sensor consists of a precise, low-temperature drift linear Hall IC with temperature compensation circuit and a current path with 98mΩ typical internal conductor resistance.

All the necessary components for a closed-loop circuit, such as compensation coil, Rshunt, and TMR sensor bridge, are integrated into a small 1 mm thin industry standard TSSOP16 SMD package.

Can current-sensor ICs win out against the shunt resistor and other passive components? Check out some of the latest offerings on the market in this Products of the Week gallery.

February 18, 2008 -- Bangalore, India and Gilroy, California -- Cosmic Circuits today introduced a silicon-proven temperature sensor in the 65nm TSMC process. The temperature-sensor comes with an ...
