CT432/CT433 TMR Current Sensor Large Carriers

CT432/CT433 TMR Current Sensor Large Carrier pinout.

We are offering these breakout boards with support from Allegro Microsystems as an easy way to use or evaluate their CT432/CT433 tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR), electrically isolated, high-bandwidth current sensors that are optimized for high dV/dt applications. The following list details some of the sensors’ key features:

• CT432/CT433 sensors use Allegro’s patented XtremeSense™ TMR (tunneling magnetoresistance) technology for high accuracy, high bandwidth, electrically isolated current measurements.
• Sensor can be inserted anywhere along the current path and be used in applications that require electrical isolation.
• 1 mΩ primary current path resistance in the sensor IC, and the PCB is made with 2-layer (compact versions under 50A), 4-layer (compact versions 50A and up), or 6-layer (large versions) 2-oz copper, so very little power is lost in the module.
• TMR sensing rejects common-mode fields, so the orientation of the sensor relative to uniform external magnetic fields (e.g. the Earth’s magnetic field) has less effect on the measurement.
• Optimized for high dV/dt applications, allowing the sensor to be used in switching applications.
• High-bandwidth 1 MHz analog output voltage proportional to AC or DC currents.
• Typical 300 ns response time.
• Output is not ratiometric (i.e. the zero point and sensitivity are independent of the actual supply voltage), which provides immunity from noisy supplies.
• Optional overcurrent fault output indicates when the current magnitude exceeds 110% of the maximum linear sensing range.
• Operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.
• Large (1.4″×1.2″), 6-layer carrier board offers a variety of ways to insert it into the current path along with 0.1″-pitch (breadboard-compatible) power, ground, and output pins.
• 3.3V (CT433) and 5V (CT432) versions available.

These sensors are the large versions, which feature larger 1.4″×1.2″, 6-layer PCBs with space for larger 风暴影音 and thicker wires for the high-current path. Smaller versions are also available for more space-constrained applications or to evaluate the IC’s performance with a smaller PCB area and fewer layers for thermal dissipation.
