Overview
The Broadcom
®
ACHS-7121/7122/7123 product series is a
fully integrated Hall Effect-based isolated linear current sensor
device family designed for AC or DC current sensing in
industrial, commercial, and communications systems. Each of
the ACHS-7121/7122/7123 consists of a precise, low-offset,
linear Hall circuit with a copper conduction path located near
the surface of the die. Applied current flowing through this
copper conduction path generates a magnetic field that 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 CMOS Hall IC, which is programmed for
accuracy after packaging. The output of the device has a
positive slope (>V
OUT(Q)
) when an increasing current flows
through the primary copper conduction path (from pins 1 and 2,
to pins 3 and 4), which is the path used for current sampling.
The internal resistance of this conductive path is 0.7 mΩ
typical, providing low-power loss. The terminals of the
conductive path are electrically isolated from the signal leads
(pins 5 through 8). This performance is delivered in a compact,
surface mountable, SO-8 package that meets worldwide
regulatory safety standards.
