The current you are measuring is routed into the pad labelled IP+ and back out of IP-.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe board contains a range of hole sizes allowing for different gauge wires to be connected to the board. The IC then outputs the reading as an analogue signal between 0.3V and Vcc-0.3V to the OUT pin. When no current is drawn the output is at half the supply voltage, as the current draw increases the output moves further away from the centre point.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIf the device is operated from a 5V supply and is connected directly to a microcontroller analogue input (with a 10-bit resolution) then the resolution of the current reading will be 55mA.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe sensor works by utilising the Hall Effect so it must be kept away from strong magnets if it is to function correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe board can easily be connected to a microcontroller and will operate at 3V or 5V.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eMeasures up to 25A current (in either direction)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCan be used with a microcontroller or an analogue circuit\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003ePackage Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e1 x Current Sensor Breakout Board\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eConnections\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eVcc: Supply Voltage (3 to7V)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOUT: Analogue Out (0.3V to Vcc-0.3V)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGND: Ground (0V)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFLT: Fault Pin\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIP+: Current sensing pins + (-25 to 25A)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIP-: Current sensing pins - (-25 to 25A)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eResources\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCurrent sensor breakout guide (PDF)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCurrent sensor example code (Zip file)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eLength: 38mm\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWidth: 28mm\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHeight: 3mm\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote\u003c\/strong\u003e: the maximum working voltage is 100V VAC peak or VDC.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kitronik","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43493250105421,"sku":"req1787258130396","price":5.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/1182\/8301\/files\/current-sensor-breakout-board-acs711-discontinued_1.jpg?v=1787258134","url":"https:\/\/www.grandorchard.shop\/products\/current-sensor-breakout-board-acs711-discontinued","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
