MPS' MCS1806 Current Sensor
2.5% Accuracy With the MCS1806 Sensor
With MCS1806 MPS presents a linear Hall-effect current sensor for AC or DC current sensing. The internal Hall array is measuring the generated magnetic field differentially, which cancels out any stray magnetic field. A primary conductor with a low resistance is used to lead the current through the SOIC package.
This current generates a magnetic field that is sensed at two different points by the integrated Hall-effect transducers.

The magnetic field difference between these two points is then converted into a voltage that is proportional to the applied current. A switching current technique is used for a low stable offset.
