Application notes
<General Considerations>
1. The sensor uses polar electronic components. When the
polarity of the power supply is mistaken, the sensor is damaged.
2. Static electricity or excessive voltage can increase an offset
voltage in the Hall element, and cause offset voltage to change.
Please exercise care in handling and application.
3. In order to prevent the influence of noise, the use of twisted
cable or shielded cable for the output line is recommended
4. If using this device within a magnetic field generated by other
devices, the specified accuracy may not be obtainable.
5. Our products（several models are excluded ）are adjusted
with the trimming method by the measurement condition
（Load resistance, Power supply voltage）of specification
sheets. Therefore, characteristics（Offset, Output, etc.）and its
deviation may be changed in different circuit conditions from
the measurement condition. All change characteristic items are
not indicated on specification sheets.
6. The performance of current sensors with through-hole
（aperture）
is dependent on the position of the primary conductor. Tamura
specifications are based on a primary conductor completely
filling the through-hole（aperture）area.
7. The current sensor rated current in DC Amps.
8. Please use mating connector with equivalent terminal plating
material to insure proper operation and avoid possibility of
‘galvanic corrosion’
.
9. Please do not store in high-temperature and high-humidity
storage environment. Please use it after confirming soldering
when it is kept for six months or more.（product soldered with
substrate）
10. We recommend performing a zero offset adjustment by
measuring the offset voltage at startup. In continuously
operation for a few months, or at change of ambient
temperature or humidity is large, we recommend regularly
performing a zero offset adjustment at being idling（it is clear
that the current is not apply）.
<Open loop>
1. High frequency primary current may result in excessive heating
in iron magnetic core and cause damage to internal circuitry;
for high frequency applications select current sensor with ferrite
core material.
2. If the measured current exceeds the rated current, magnetic
core saturation will occur and the output voltage signal will not
be linearly proportional to the measured current.
<Closed Loop>
1. For closed loop current sensors please insure the power supply
voltage is balanced, symmetrical, and, applied simultaneously
to avoid potential increase in DC offset error.
2. Maximum rated current measurement duration is timedependent.
Maximum rated current applied in excess of the time limit can
result in damage to internal electronic circuitry; please consult
Tamura for assistance.
3. When using a measurement resistor to convert current output
to voltage output select a resistor with stable temperature
characteristic to insure accuracy of the output voltage.
4. Compensation current supplied to the secondary winding varies
in proportion to the measured current based on the conversion
ratio.（If/KN; KN ＝ secondary turns）Please insure the PSU
has required current capacity to supply compensation current
to the secondary winding.
<Flux-Gate>
1. Compensation current supplied to the secondary winding varies
in proportion to the measured current. Please insure the PSU
has required current capacity to supply compensation current
to the secondary winding.
2. There is 450kHz ripple voltage present on the output and
reference output voltage signals . An external capacitor maybe
added if necessary.
