Additional Details

The ACS70331EOLCTR-2P5U3 utilizes Allegro's Hall-effect technology to sense the magnetic field generated by the current flowing through the IC. The output voltage is linearly proportional to the input current. The galvanic isolation is achieved through the use of a high-voltage isolation barrier, ensuring that the high-current circuit is electrically isolated from the low-voltage control circuitry. This sensor is designed for uni-directional current sensing. The part number designation provides information such as current range and package type. Refer to the datasheet for complete specifications, including sensitivity, accuracy, and operating temperature range. The compact size and integrated features make it a suitable solution for various current sensing applications in automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics.
