Product description
The MLX91209 is a fully customer-programmable monolithic sensor IC packaged in standard SIP package. The Hall current sensor IC provides a high speed analog output signal proportional to the external applied flux density. The MLX91209 current sensor enables the user to construct a precise current sensor solution with fast response time of 3µs.
Main features
The MLX91209 sensor IC is automotive qualified and particularly appropriate for DC and/or AC current measurements up to 200 kHz with galvanic isolation, fast response time and small package size. The current sensor features over voltage and reverse voltage protection including diagnostics. The transfer characteristic of the MLX91209 is fully customer programmable (offset, sensitivity and response time).
Current sensor applications
In the typical application the sensor IC is used in combination with a ring shaped soft ferromagnetic core. The Hall IC is placed in a small air gap and the current conductor is passed through the inner part of the ferromagnetic ring. The ferromagnetic ring concentrates and amplifies the magnetic flux on the Hall sensor IC which generates an output voltage proportional to the current.
