Automotive-Grade, Galvanically Isolated Current Sensor IC ACS724 with Common-Mode Field Rejection in a Small-Footprint SOIC8 Package Thermal Rise vs. Primary Current ASEK724/5 Evaluation Board Layout
Self-heating due to the flow-off current should be considered dur- Thermal data shown in Figure 2 was collected using the ing the design of any current sensing system. The sensor, printed ASEK724/5 Evaluation Board (TED-85-0740-003). This board circuit board (PCB), and contacts to the PCB will generate heat includes 1500 mm2 of 2 oz. copper (0.0694 mm) connected to as current moves through the system. pins 1 and 2, and to pins 3 and 4, with thermal vias connecting The thermal response is highly dependent on PCB layout, copper the layers.

The current profile includes peak current, current “on-time”, and duty cycle. While the data presented in this section was collected with direct current (DC), these numbers may be used to approximate thermal response for both AC signals and current pulses. The plot in Figure 2 shows the measured rise in steady-state die temperature of the ACS724 versus DC input current at an ambi- ent temperature, TA, of 25 °C. The thermal offset curves may be directly applied to other values of TA.
