The devices for 5 up through 30 amp are bi-directional, and are on a 8 pin soic.
- Low insertion loss; power dissipation much less than shunt solution
- Able to monitor both AC and DC currents
- Smaller form factor than shunt and current transformer solutions
- 5 V, single supply operation
- Voltage isolation rating certified by TUV America
- RoHS compliant
