ACSEVB-MC16 Evaluation Board

ACS37002 - 400 kHz, High Accuracy Current Sensor with Pin-Selectable Gains

Bare evaluation boards offer a method for evaluating Allegro current sensors in a lab environment. This document describes the use of the MC current sensor evaluation board. This evaluation board (ACSEVB-MC16, TED-0004115) is intended for use with any MC package (16-pin SOICW Allegro current sensor).

Top Features

Packaging

  • Enhanced thermal performance
