Current sensor IC is designed with differential output and externally adjustable gain

Allegro MicroSystems, LLC (Worcester, MA) introduced a new current sensor IC for industrial, commercial, and communications systems. Allegro’s ACS726 is said to be the first current sensor IC to include a fully differential back end amplifier that can be used to adjust gain and bandwidth via external RC networks. The back end amplifier is fully independent and when unused, can be powered down to reduce power consumption. The fully differential output of this device gives better immunity to output offset drift as well as common mode noise. The device package allows for easy implementation by the customer. Typical applications include:

• Motor control.
• Load detection and management.
• Switched-mode power supplies.
• Over current fault protection.
