Product description: ACS724 current sensor -10 A to +10 A - Pololu 4043
The ACS724 current sensor from Pololu is a versatile module designed to precisely measure current in two directions in the range from -10 A to +10 A. It uses the Hall effect for measurements, offers a low internal resistance value of approximately 1.2 mΩ and has electrical insulation up to 2.4 kV RMS , which makes it an ideal solution for applications requiring accurate current monitoring in various electrical systems. Additionally, a passband of 120 kHz enables quick response to current changes during control. The sensor module is powered by the preferred voltage of 5 V and generates a proportional analog voltage of 200 mV / A.

It can be used to continuously monitor the operation of electrical devices and to detect possible faults and irregularities in their operation.
Current sensor pins
- IP+ (Positive Current Input) : A pin intended to be connected to the positive side of a circuit carrying current in order to monitor it.
- IP- (negative current input) : a pin intended to be connected to the negative side of a circuit through which current flows for the purpose of monitoring it.
- VCC (logic power supply) : used to connect the supply voltage for the current sensor measurement system. The supply voltage should be between 4.5 V and 5.5 V.
- OUT : output of the system from which an analog voltage proportional to the measured current is read. This signal can be further processed or used for direct current monitoring.
- GND : system ground.
