6. Frequently Asked Questions
▶>
It measures magnetic fields generated by current flowing through a conductor and converts that into a proportional analog voltage output.
>
It physically separates the current path from the signal path, allowing the sensing circuitry to be electrically isolated via molded thermoplastic insulation.
>
Yes, the ACS770 is bidirectional and can accurately detect both AC and DC current flows.
>
Common applications include motor drive systems, solar inverters, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), industrial automation, and electric vehicle (EV) battery monitoring.
>
It is mounted via through-hole soldering, with large pins carrying current and smaller pins connecting to analog output and power lines. Correct orientation and trace isolation are critical for accurate performance.
