{"title":"ACS712 Current Sensor- 5A","handle":"acs712-current-sensor-5a","url":"/products/acs712-current-sensor-5a","description":"The ACS712 Current Sensor (5A) provides a simple way to measure AC or DC current up to ±5A. Based on the Allegro ACS712 Hall effect sensor, this module outputs a proportional analogue voltage that can be read directly by an Arduino or other microcontroller via an analogue input pin.\n\nWith its low-resistance current path and electrical isolation, the ACS712 is well suited for over-current protection circuits, battery chargers, switching-mode power supplies, digital watt meters, and programmable current sources.\n\nKey Features\n\n\n±5A Measurement Range – Detects both AC and DC current up to 5A\n\nAnalogue Output – 185 mV/A sensitivity for straightforward ADC readings\n\nHall Effect Sensing – Non-intrusive measurement with electrical isolation\n\nLow Resistance – Minimal impact on the circuit being measured\n\n5V Compatible – Operates from 4.5V to 5.5V supply\n\n\nSpecifications\n\n\nSupply Voltage: 4.5V – 5.5V DC\n\nMeasurement Range: -5A to +5A\n\nSensitivity: 180 – 190 mV/A (typical 185 mV/A)\n\nSensor IC: ACS712ELCTR-05B-T\n\n\nAlso Available\n\nACS712 Current Sensor – 20A\nACS711EX Current Sensor Carrier – ±31A\nACS714 Current Sensor Carrier – ±5A\nACS724 Current Sensor Carrier – ±50A\nSparkFun Low Current Sensor Breakout – ACS712\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nOver-current protection circuits\nBattery chargers and monitoring systems\nDigital watt meters and power monitors\nSwitching-mode power supply feedback\nArduino and microcontroller current sensing projects\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× ACS712 Current Sensor Module (5A)\n","vendor":"Elecrow","product_type":"physical","in_stock":false,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":3566,"title":"Default Title","sku":"EC-SEL7125A","price":9.7,"compare_at_price":0.0,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":false,"available_quantity":0,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
