CQ-209A
High-Speed Small-Sized Current Sensor
Overview
CQ-209A is an open-type current sensor using a Hall sensor which outputs the analog voltage proportional
to the AC/DC current. Quantum well ultra-thin film InAs (Indium Arsenide) is used as the Hall sensor, which
enables the high-accuracy and high-speed current sensing. Simple AI-Shell package with the Hall sensor,
magnetic core, and primary conductor realizes the space-saving and high reliability.
Features
- Bidirectional type
- Electrical isolation between the primary conductor and the sensor signal
- 5V single supply operation
- Ratiometric output
- Low variation and low temperature drift of sensitivity and offset voltage
- Low noise output: 2.1mVrms (max.)
- Fast response time: 1μs (typ.)
- Small-sized surface mount package, halogen free

Characteristics Definitions
(1) Sensitivity V
h
[mV/mT], offset voltage V
of
[V]
Sensitivity is defined as the slope of the approximate straight line calculated by the least square method,
using the data of VOUT voltage (V
OUT
) when the primary current (I
IN
) is swept within the range of linear
sensing range (I
NS
). Offset voltage is defined as the intercept of the approximate straight line above.
(2) Linearity error
ρ
[%F.S.]
Linearity error is defined as the ratio of the maximum error voltage (V
d
) to the full scale (F.S.), where V
d
is
the maximum difference between the VOUT voltage (V
OUT
) and the approximate straight line calculated in
the sensitivity and offset voltage definition. Definition formula is shown in below:
ρ
= Vd / F.S. × 100
NOTE) Full scale (F.S.) is defined by the multiplication of the linear sensing range and sensitivity (See
Figure 5).

(3) Ratiometric error of sensitivity V
h-R
[%] and ratiometric error of offset voltage V
of-R
[%]
Output of CQ-209A is ratiometric, which means the values of sensitivity (V
h
) and offset voltage (V
of
) are
proportional to the supply voltage (V
DD
). Ratiometric error is defined as the difference between the V
h
(or
V
of
) and ideal V
h
(or V
of
) when the V
DD
is changed from 5.0V to V
DD1
(4.5V<V
DD1
<5.5V). Definition formula is
shown in below:

[%]
Temperature drift of sensitivity is defined as the drift ratio of the sensitivity (V
h
) at T
a
=T

(−40C<T

<90C)
to the V
h
at T

= 100 × (V

Maximum temperature drift of sensitivity (V
h-dmax
) is defined as the maximum value of |V
h-d
| through the
defined temperature range.
Reference data of the temperature drift of sensitivity of CQ-209A is shown in Figure 6.
