Functional Description :

The Winson WCS2720 provides economical and precise solution for both

DC and AC current sensing in industrial, commercial and communications

systems. The unique package allows for easy implementation by the customer.

Typical applications include motor control, load detection and management,

over-current fault detection and any intelligent power management system

etc…

The WCS2720 consists of a precise, low-temperature drift linear hall

sensor IC with temperature compensation circuit and a current path with 0.4

mΩ typical internal conductor resistance. This extremely low resistance can

effectively reduce power loss, operating temperature and increase the

reliability greatly. Applied current flowing through this conduction path

generates a magnetic field which is sensed by the integrated Hall IC and

converted into a proportional voltage.

The terminals of the conductive path are electrically isolated from the

sensor leads. This allow the WCS2720 current sensor to be used in

applications requiring electrical isolation without the use of opto-isolators or

other costly isolation techniques and make system more competitive in cost.
