Product Overview
The Allegro ACS37612 is a coreless, high-precision, Hall-effect current sensor IC designed for low-cost AC and DC current sensing solutions. It eliminates the need for external field concentrator cores or shields, making it ideal for applications with high currents flowing through busbars or PCB traces. The device features differential sensing topology for common-mode stray magnetic field rejection, high isolation, and a fast response time suitable for safety-critical overcurrent fault detection. With a wide ambient operating temperature range and automotive qualification (AEC-Q100 Grade 0), it is well-suited for harsh automotive environments and space-constrained applications due to its low-profile 8-pin TSSOP package.
