Introduction<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Acs712 current sensor interfacing with Arduino for AC and DC Current Measurement. In this tutorial, you will learn how to interface ACS712 hall effect current sensor with Arduino? And How to measure DC Current using asc712 hall effect sensor and how to measure AC Current using acs712 hall effect sensor. It is necessary for the high current applications to monitor the current in the circuit. Now we discuss what is ACS712 and its applications.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the ACS712 AC\/DC Current Sensor?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

ACS712 Current Sensor is a fully integrated, Hall-effect-based linear sensor IC. This IC has a 2.1kV RMS voltage isolation along with a low resistance current conductor.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It can measure both direct current and alternating current. It is a linear type sensor. It has features of noise cancellation, very high response time.it\u2019s simply a current sensor that uses its conductor to calculate and measure the amount of current applied.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It can be used in applications requiring electrical isolation as the terminals of the conduction path are electrically isolated from the IC leads. Thus, this IC doesn\u2019t require any other isolation techniques. This IC requires a supply voltage of 5V. Its output voltage is proportional to AC or DC current.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
