ACS712ELC-10A Pinout

Package Type: Module with screw terminals and pin headers

Notes

• ACS712ELC-10A is the 10A variant with a scale factor of 100 mV/A
• IP+ and IP− are screw-terminal connectors for current measurement; current flows through the internal Hall-effect sensor between these terminals
• VOUT provides an analog voltage output with a nominal offset of VCC/2 (2.5V at 5V supply) with no current flowing
• VCC requires 5V nominal DC supply
• GND must be connected to the power source negative and to the microcontroller reference ground
• The module is designed for direct connection to microcontroller ADC inputs (e.g., Arduino A0–A5)
• Measurement range: −10A to +10A
• Output error: ±1.5% at TA = 25°C
• Internal conductor resistance: 1.2 mΩ
• Isolation voltage: 2.1 kVRMS minimum
• Do not use near significant magnetic fields (Hall-effect sensor)
