Allegro Current Sensor Benefits over Shunt-Based Approaches
- 3x to 10x smaller size
- Shunt & external circuitry is much larger
- Low W shunt alone can be much larger than our IC package!
- Built-in reinforced isolation
- Shunt-based solutions require an isolated power supply and signal isolation
- Allegro current sensors don’t have any active circuits on the high voltage side, no additional isolation needed!
- In-line made easy
- Same Allegro solution capable of low-side, high-side, or in-line current sensing
- Excellent PWM rejection / common mode transient immunity (CMTI)
- High bandwidth sensing
- Up to 1 MHz bandwidth current sensors are available today!
- Ease-of-use, all necessary signal conditioning built in
- Significant analog design effort is needed for accurate shunt-based solutions
- Allegro current sensors integrate trimmed compensation, plug-and-play!
- MC Package Reduces Heat-sinking Burden vs. Shunt Significantly Lower Power DissipationMeasuring >50 A with shunts can be challenging
- Trade-off between power dissipation and SNR
- ±200 mV full-scale input range for shunt amplifiers
- To maximize SNR a larger shunt yields more voltage and can burn 10’s W
- Smaller shunt resistance reduces input voltage signal and lower SNR
