Add-on board measures AC through a conductor
AC Current 2 Click from Mikroe is an add-on board designed for safe, non-invasive measurement of alternating current (AC) through a conductor.
This board features the MCP607 operational amplifier and the MCP322 12-bit ADC, both from Micorchip Technology.
This Click board features a galvanically isolated current sensing probe that clamps around the conductor without electrical contact, an RC filter for EMI suppression, and flexible output options, providing both analog and digital signals via an I2C interface.
It supports 3.3V and 5V logic levels, allowing easy integration with a wide range of MCUs, and comes equipped with a 3.5mm jack and connection terminal for probe attachment.
AC Current 2 Click is ideal for current consumption monitoring, high-voltage system diagnostics, safety equipment, and general AC current measurements where circuit integrity and user protection are essential.
AC Current 2 Click is fully compatible with the mikroBUS socket and can be used on any host system supporting the mikroBUS standard. It comes with the mikroSDK open-source libraries, offering unparalleled flexibility for evaluation and customization.
Setting this Click board apart is the ClickID feature, enabling a user’s host system to seamlessly and automatically detect and identify this add-on board.
