SMT Current Sensor
–
T6522-AL
This low cost transformer is designed for use at 50 kHz
to 300 kHz to sense continuous currents up to 3 Amps.
The current windings can be connected in series to
provide twice the output sensitivity. It offers 500 Vrms
interwinding isolation.
The small footprint, low profile, surface mount ceramic
case makes it ideal for high-density boards and provides
an excellent surface for pick and place operations.
Applications include power supply feedback control,
motor protection, overload sensing and detecting load
drop or shutdown.

2. The two primary windings may be connected in parallel (1:50) to
provide up to 3 A (Iin) sensing capability (3 Vout), or connected in
series (2:50) to provide twice the sensitivity (1 A Iin yields 2 Vout)
3. Inductance is for the secondary, measured at 100 kHz, 0.1 Vrms.
4. Maximum volt-time product for the secondary.
5. Varying terminating resistance increases or decreases output
Voltage/Ampere according to the following equation:
RT = Vout × Nsec / Iin.
