Description
The MLX91220 is an Isolated Integrated Current
Sensor that senses the current flowing through the
low impedance leadframe of the SOIC package. By
virtue of fixing the current conductor position with
respect to the monolithic CMOS sensor, a fully
integrated Hall-effect current sensor is obtained,
that is factory calibrated.
Inside the package, the magnetic flux density
generated by the current flow is sensed
differentially by two sets of Hall plates. As a result
the influence of external disturbing fields is
minimized in the fast analog front-end. The
residual signal is amplified to provide a high-speed
linear analog output voltage.
The close proximity of the Hall plates to the current
conductor ensures a high signal-to-noise ratio and
an accurate signal over temperature. Even with this
miniaturization, high voltage isolation ratings are
still maintained between the primary and the
opposing secondary side.
