Applied current flowing through this copper conduction path generates a magnetic field which 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. The output of the device has a positive slope proportional to the current flow from IP+ to IP– (pins 1 and 2, to pins 3 and 4). The internal resistance of this conductive path is 0.6 mΩ for the EX package, and 1.2 mΩ for the LC package, providing a non-intrusive measurement interface that saves power in applications that require energy efficiency. The ACS711 is optimized for low-side current sensing applications, although the terminals of the conductive path are electrically isolated from the sensor IC leads, providing sufficient internal creepage and clearance dimensions for a low AC or DC working voltage applications.

The ACS711 outputs an analog signal, VIOUT , that varies linearly with the ¯ L¯ ¯ bi-directional AC or DC primary current, IP , within the range specified. The ¯ ¯¯¯ ¯ pin trips FAU¯ T when IP reaches ±100% of its full-scale current. ACS711A-DS, Rev. 2
