Description
The Allegro ACS755 family of current sensor ICs provides
economical and precise solutions for DC current sensing in
industrial, automotive, commercial, and communications
systems. The device package allows for easy implementation by
the customer. Typical applications include motor control, load
detection and management, power supplies, and overcurrent
fault protection.
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 voltage is provided by the low-offset,
chopper-stabilized BiCMOS Hall IC, which is programmed
for accuracy at the factory.
The output of the device will be valid when a 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.

ACS755xCB-100
Fully Integrated, Hall Effect-Based Linear Current Sensor IC
with High Voltage Isolation and a Low-Resistance Current Conductor
Description (continued)
The thickness of the copper conductor allows survival of the device
at up to 5× overcurrent conditions. The terminals of the conductive
path are electrically isolated from the signal leads (pins 1 through
3). This allows the ACS755 family of sensor ICs to be used in
applications requiring electrical isolation without the use of opto-
isolators or other costly isolation techniques.
The device is fully calibrated prior to shipment from the factory.
The ACS75x family is lead (Pb) free. All leads are plated with
100% matte tin, and there is no Pb inside the package. The heavy
gauge leadframe is made of oxygen-free copper.
