ACS722KMA
High Accuracy, Hall-effect Based Current Sensor
IC in High Isolation SOIC16 Package
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
• Patented integrated digital temperature compensation
circuitry allows for near closed loop accuracy over
temperature in an open loop sensor
• UL60950-1 (ed. 2) certified
□□ Dielectric Strength Voltage = 4.8 kVrms
□□ Basic Isolation Working Voltage = 1097 Vrms
□□ Reinforced Isolation Working Voltage = 565 Vrms
• Industry-leading noise performance with greatly
improved bandwidth through proprietary amplifier and
filter design techniques
• Pin-selectable band width: 80 kHz for high bandwidth
applications or 20 kHz for low noise performance
• 0.85 mΩ primary conductor resistance for low power
loss and high inrush current withstand capability
• Low-profile SOIC16 package suitable for spaceconstrained applications
• 3 to 3.6 V, single supply operation
• Output voltage proportional to AC or DC current
• Factory-trimmed sensitivity and quiescent output voltage
for improved accuracy
The Allegro™ ACS722 current sensor IC is an economical and
precise solution for AC or DC current sensing in industrial,
commercial, and communication systems. The small package
is ideal for space constrained applications while also saving
costs due to reduced board area. Typical applications include
motor control, load detection and management, switched-mode
power supplies, and overcurrent fault protection.
The device consists of a precise, low-offset, linear Hall
sensor circuit with a copper conduction path located near the
surface of the die. Applied current flowing through this copper
conduction path generates a magnetic field which is sensed by
the integrated Hall IC and converted into a proportional voltage.
Device accuracy is optimized through the close proximity of the
magnetic field to the Hall transducer. A precise, proportional
voltage is provided by the low-offset, chopper-stabilized
BiCMOS Hall IC, which includes Allegro’s patented digital
temperature compensation, resulting in extremely accurate
performance over temperature. The output of the device has
a positive slope when an increasing current flows through the
primary copper conduction path (from pins 1 through 4, to pins
5 through 8), which is the path used for current sensing. The
internal resistance of this conductive path is 0.85 mΩ typical,
providing low power loss.

The terminals of the conductive path are electrically isolated
from the sensor leads (pins 9 through 16). This allows the
ACS722 current sensor IC to be used in high-side current sense
applications without the use of high-side differential amplifiers
or other costly isolation techniques.

The ACS722 outputs an
analog signal, VIOUT , that
changes, proportionally, with
the bidirectional AC or DC
primary sensed current, IP ,
within the specified measurement range. The BW_SEL pin
can be used to select one of
the two bandwidths to optimize the noise performance.
Grounding the BW_SEL pin
puts the part in the high
bandwidth (80 kHz) mode.

High Accuracy, Hall-effect Based Current Sensor
IC in High Isolation SOIC16 Package
DEFINITIONS OF ACCURACY CHARACTERISTICS
Sensitivity (Sens)
The change in sensor IC output in response to a 1 A change
through the primary conductor. The sensitivity is the product
of the magnetic coupling factor (G / A) (1 G = 0.1 mT)and the
linear IC amplifier gain (mV/G). The linear IC amplifier gain is
programmed at the factory to optimize the sensitivity (mV/A) for
the full-scale current of the device.
due to sensitivity error, and at relatively low currents, ETOT will
be mostly due to Offset Voltage (VOE ). In fact, at IP = 0, ETOT
approaches infinity due to the offset. This is illustrated in Figures
1 and 2. Figure 1 shows a distribution of output voltages versus IP
at 25°C and across temperature. Figure 2 shows the corresponding ETOT versus IP .

Nonlinearity (ELIN)
The nonlinearity is a measure of how linear the output of the sensor IC is over the full current measurement range. The nonlinearity is calculated as:

Total Output Error (ETOT)
The the difference between the current measurement from the
sensor IC and the actual current (IP), relative to the actual current.
This is equivalent to the difference between the ideal output voltage and the actual output voltage, divided by the ideal sensitivity,
relative to the current flowing through the primary conduction
path:

Zero Current Output Voltage (VIOUT(Q))
The output of the sensor when the primary current is zero. For
a unipolar supply voltage, it nominally remains at 0.5 × VCC for
a bidirectional device and 0.1 × VCC for a unidirectional device.
For example, in the case of a bidirectional output device, VCC =
3.3 V translates into VIOUT(Q) = 1.65 V. Variation in VIOUT(Q) can
be attributed to the resolution of the Allegro linear IC quiescent
voltage trim and thermal drift.

High Accuracy, Hall-effect Based Current Sensor
IC in High Isolation SOIC16 Package
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Impact of External Magnetic Fields
The ACS722 works by sensing the magnetic field created by the
current flowing through the package. However, the sensor cannot
differentiate between fields created by the current flow and external magnetic fields. This means that external magnetic fields can
cause errors in the output of the sensor. Magnetic fields which are
perpendicular to the surface of the package affect the output of
the sensor, as it only senses fields in that one plane. The error in
Amperes can be quantified as:
B
CF
For example, an external field of 1 Gauss will result in around
0.22 A of error. If the ACS722KMATR-10AB, which has a nominal sensitivity of 132 mV/A, is being used, that equates to 29 mV
of error on the output of the sensor.

Estimating Total Error vs. Sensed Current
The Performance Characteristics tables give distribution (±3
sigma) values for Total Error at I_PR(max); however, one often
wants to know what error to expect at a particular current. This
can be estimated by using the distribution data for the components of Total Error, Sensitivity Error and Offset Voltage. The

Sens × IP
Here, ESENS and VOE are the ±3 sigma values for those error
terms. If there is an average sensitivity error or average offset
voltage, then the average Total Error is estimated as:
ETOTAVG (IP) = ESENSAVG +
where B is the strength of the external field perpendicular to the
surface of the package in Gauss, and CF is the coupling factor in
G/A. Then, multiplying by the sensitivity of the part (Sens) gives
the error in mV.

ETOT(IP) = ESENS +

The resulting total error will be a sum of ETOT and ETOT_AVG.
Using these equations and the 3 sigma distributions for Sensitivity Error and Offset Voltage, the Total Error vs. sensed current
(IP) is below for the ACS722KMATR-40AB. As expected, as one
goes towards zero current, the error in percent goes towards infinity due to division by zero (refer to Figure 3)

DEFINITIONS OF DYNAMIC RESPONSE CHARACTERISTICS
Power-On Time (tPO)
When the supply is ramped to its operating voltage, the device
requires a finite time to power its internal components before
responding to an input magnetic field.
Power-On Time (tPO) is defined as the time it takes for the output
voltage to settle within ±10% of its steady state value under an
applied magnetic field, after the power supply has reached its
minimum specified operating voltage (VCC(min)) as shown in the
chart at right (refer to Figure 4).
V
Propagation Delay (tpd )
The propagation delay is measured as the time interval between:
a) when the primary current signal reaches 20% of its final value;
and b) when the device reaches 20% of its output corresponding
to the applied current (refer to Figure 5).
Response Time (tRESPONSE)
The time interval between: a) when the primary current signal
reaches 90% of its final value; and b) when the device reaches
90% of its output corresponding to the applied current (refer to
Figure 6).

t1= time at which power supply reaches

t2= time at which output voltage settles

Rise Time (tr)
The time interval between: a) when the sensor IC reaches 10%
of its full scale value; and b) when it reaches 90% of its full scale
value (refer to Figure 5). The rise time to a step response is used
to derive the bandwidth of the current sensor IC, in which ƒ(–3
dB) = 0.35 / tr. Both tr and tRESPONSE are detrimentally affected by
eddy current losses observed in the conductive IC ground plane.
