The Allegro ACS754 family of current sensors provides economical and precise
solutions for current sensing in industrial, commercial, and communications
systems. The device package allows easy implementation by the customer. Typical
applications include: motor control, load detection and management, power distri-
bution, and overcurrent fault protection.
The sensor consists of a precision linear Hall IC, which is optimized to an internal
magnetic circuit to increase device sensitivity. The combination of a precisely
controlled self-aligning assembly process (patents pending), and the factory-pro-
grammed precision of the linear Hall sensor, result in high-level performance and
product uniformity.
The primary conductor used for current sensing (terminals 4 and 5) is designed
for extremely low power loss. These power terminals also are electrically isolated
from the sensor leads (pins 1, 2, and 3). This allows the ACS754 family of sensors
to be used in applications requiring electrical isolation, without using optoisolators
or other costly isolation techniques.
The output of this device has a positive slope (>V
CC
2) when an increasing cur-
rent  ows from terminal 4 to terminal 5.
The ACS754 family is provided in
lead-free packages (leadframe coating 100%
matte tin)

Sensitivity (Sens):
The change in sensor output in response to a 1 A change through the primary conductor. The sensitivity is the
product of the magnetic circuit sensitivity (G / A) and the linear IC ampli er gain (mV/G). The linear IC ampli er gain is trimmed at the
factory to optimize the sensitivity (mV/A) for the full-scale current of the device.
Noise (V
NOISE
):
The product of the linear IC ampli er gain (mV/G) and the noise  oor for the Allegro Hall effect linear IC (≈1 G).
The noise  oor is derived from the thermal and shot noise observed in Hall elements. Dividing the noise (mV) by the sensitivity (mV/
A) provides the smallest current that the device is able to resolve.
Linearity (E
LIN
):
The degree to which the voltage output from the sensor varies in direct proportion to the primary current through
its full-scale amplitude. Linearity reveals the maximum deviation from the ideal transfer curve for this transducer. Nonlinearity in the
output can be attributed to the gain variation across temperature and saturation of the  ux concentrator approaching the full-scale cur-
rent. The following equation is used to derive the linearity:
De nitions of Accuracy Characteristics
where
∆ gain = the gain variation as a function of temperature changes from 25ºC,
% sat = the percentage of saturation of the  ux concentrator, which becomes signi cant as the current
being sensed approaches full-scale ±I
P
, and
V
out_full-scale amperes
V
out_full-scale amperes
V
= the output voltage (V) when the sensed current approximates full-scale ±I
P
.
Symmetry (E
SYM
):
The degree to which the absolute voltage output from the sensor varies in proportion to either a positive or nega-
tive full-scale primary current. The following equation is used to derive symmetry:
Quiescent output voltage (V
OUT(Q)
):
The output of the sensor when the primary current is zero. For a unipolar supply voltage, it
nominally remains at V
CC
⁄ 2. Thus, V
CC 2. Thus, V
CC
CC
= 5 V translates into V
OUT(Q)
= 2.5 V. Variation in V
OUT(Q)
can be attributed to the resolution
of the Allegro linear IC quiescent voltage trim, magnetic hysteresis, and thermal drift.
Electrical offset voltage (V
OE
):
The deviation of the device output from its ideal quiescent value of V
CC
⁄ 2 due to nonmagnetic causes.
CC 2 due to nonmagnetic causes.
CC
Magnetic offset error (V
OM
):
The magnetic offset is due to the residual magnetism (remnant  eld) of the core material. The magnetic
offset error is highest when the magnetic circuit has been saturated, usually when the device has been subjected to a full-scale or high-
current overload condition. The magnetic offset is largely dependent on the material used as a  ux concentrator. The larger magnetic
offsets are observed at the lower operating temperatures.
Accuracy (E
TOT
):
The accuracy represents the maximum deviation of the actual output from its ideal value. This is also known as the
total ouput error. The accuracy is illustrated graphically in the Output Voltage versus Current chart on the following page.
Accuracy is divided into four areas:
0 A at 25°C:
Accuracy of sensing zero current  ow at 25°C, without the effects of temperature.
0 A over temperature:
Accuracy of sensing zero current  ow including temperature effects.
Full-scale current at 25°C:
Accuracy of sensing the full-scale current at 25°C, without the effects of temperature.
Full-scale current over Δ temperature:
Accuracy of sensing full-scale current  ow including temperature effects.

De nitions of Dynamic Response Characteristics
Propagation delay (t
PROP
):
The time required for the sensor output to re ect a change in the primary current
signal. Propagation delay is attributed to inductive loading within the linear IC package, as well as in the induc-
tive loop formed by the primary conductor geometry. Propagation delay can be considered as a  xed time offset
and may be compensated.
Response time (t
RESPONSE
):
The time interval between a) when the primary current signal reaches 90% of its
nal value, and b) when the sensor reaches 90% of its output corresponding to the applied current.
Rise time (t
r
):
The time interval between a) when the sensor reaches 10% of its full scale value, and b) when
it reaches 90% of its full scale value. The rise time to a step response is used to derive the bandwidth of the
current sensor, in which ƒ(–3 dB) = 0.35 / t
r
. Both t

are detrimentally affected by eddy current
