Das Current 9 Click Board™ ist eine kompakte Zusatzplatine, die eine präzise und genaue Stromerfassungslösung bietet. Diese Platine verfügt über den CT415-HSN830DR, einen hochbandbreiten und extrem rauscharmen XtremeSense® TMR-Stromsensor für den Strombereich bis zu 30 A von Crocus Technology. Dieser Sensor verfügt außerdem über einen integrierten stromführenden Leiter, der den Nennstrom verarbeitet und eine Strommessung als lineare analoge Ausgangsspannung erzeugt, wodurch ein Gesamtausgangsfehler von ca. ±1 % des Skalenendwerts erreicht wird. Danach kann der Benutzer die Ausgangsspannung in analoger oder digitaler Form verarbeiten. Dieses Click Board™ ist ideal für hochpräzise Strommessungen für viele Verbraucher-, Unternehmens- und Industrieanwendungen.
Das Current 9 Click Board™ wird von einer mikroSDK-kompatiblen Bibliothek unterstützt, die Funktionen enthält, die die Softwareentwicklung vereinfachen. Dieses Click Board™ ist ein gründlich getestetes Produkt und kann auf einem System verwendet werden, das mit der mikroBUS™-Buchse ausgestattet ist.
DO NOT TOUCH THE BOARD WHILE THE LOAD IS CONNECTED!
Note: This Click board™ needs to be used by trained personnel only while applying high voltages. Special care should be taken when working with hazardous voltage levels.
How Does The Current 9 Click Board™ Work?
The Current 9 Click Board™ is based on the CT415-HSN830DR, an XtremeSense® TMR current sensor providing high-accuracy current measurements from Crocus Technology. The CT415-HSN830DR comes with an integrated current carrying conductor (CCC) that handles current from 0A up to 30A. It has high sensitivity and a wide dynamic range with excellent accuracy (low total output error) across temperature range from –40°C to +85°C making it suitable for many consumer, enterprise, and industrial applications.
When current flows through the CCC, the XtremeSense® TMR sensors inside the chip sense the field, generating a differential voltage signal that goes through the analogue front-end to output a current measurement with less than ±1% full-scale total output error. The CT415-HSN830DR is designed to enable a fast response time for the current measurement. In addition, the user is provided with the option of selecting the output voltage level of the sensor performed by the onboard SMD jumper by populating it to an appropriate position marked as 3V3 or 5V. Even with high bandwidth of 1MHz, the CT415 consumes minimal power.
The output signal of the CT415-HSN830DR can be converted to a digital value using MCP3221, a successive approximation A/D converter with a 12-bit resolution from Microchip using a 2-wire I2C compatible interface, or can be sent directly to an analogue pin of the mikroBUS™ socket labelled as AN. Selection can be performed by onboard SMD jumper labelled as ADC SEL, placing it to an appropriate position marked as EXT and INT.
Also, the Current 9 Click Board™ should be connected in series with the load. The current is measured by two onboard terminal connectors, one terminal block for the positive and the other for the negative current input.
The Current 9 Click Board™ can operate with both 3.3V and 5V logic voltage levels selected via the VCC SEL jumper. This way, it is allowed for both 3.3V and 5V capable MCUs to use the communication lines properly. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing easy-to-use functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.
