ACS759xCB Thermally Enhanced, Fully Integrated, Hall Effect-Based Linear Current Sensor IC With 100 μΩ Current Conductor and Optimized Performance at 3.3 V Features and Benefits ▪ Industry-leading noise performance through proprietary amplifier and filter design techniques ▪ Integrated shield greatly reduces capacitive coupling from current conductor to die due to high dV/dt signals, and prevents offset drift in high-side, high voltage applications ▪ Total output error improvement through gain and offset trim over temperature ▪ Small package size, with easy mounting capability ▪ Monolithic Hall IC for high reliability ▪ Ultra-low power loss: 100 μΩ internal conductor resistance ▪ Galvanic isolation allows use in economical, high-side current sensing in high voltage systems ▪ 3.0 to 3.6 V, single supply operation The Allegro™ ACS759 family of current sensor ICs provides economical and precise solutions for AC or DC current sensing. Typical applications include motor control, load detection and management, power supply and DC-to-DC converter control, inverter control, and overcurrent fault detection. The device consists of a precision, low-offset linear Hall circuit with a copper conduction path located near the die. Applied current flowing through this copper conduction path generates a magnetic field which the Hall IC converts into a proportional voltage. Device accuracy is optimized through the close proximity of the magnetic signal to the Hall transducer. A precise, proportional output voltage is provided by the low-offset, chopper-stabilized BiCMOS Hall IC, which is programmed for accuracy at the factory. Continued on the next page… pe d Ty ste te High level immunity to current conductor dV/dt and stray electric fields, offered by Allegro proprietary integrated shield technology, guarantees low output voltage ripple and low offset drift in high-side, high voltage applications. The output of the device has a positive slope (>VCC / 2) when an increasing current flows through the primary copper conduction path (from terminal 4 to terminal 5), which is the path used for current sampling. The internal resistance of this conductive path is 100 μΩ typical, providing low power loss. The thickness of the copper conductor allows survival of the device at high overcurrent conditions. The terminals of the Continued on the next page… Additional leadforms available for qualifying volumes Application 1. The ACS759 outputs an analog signal, VOUT , that varies linearly with the bidirectional AC or DC primary current, IP , within the range specified. CF is for optimal noise management, with values that depend on the application. ACS759-DS
