Sheet thickness
Advantage: Isolation between current path and logic Low power consumption Disadvantage: Significant thermal drift Need additional circuitry to compensate the voltage offset Relatively high cost Types: open-loop closed-loop active current probes. Power Consumption: The supply voltage ranges from 2 V to 6 V and the supply current ranges from 8 mA - 10 mA, which results in low power consumption at the mW scale. Cost: Hall Effect sensor cost is more expensive. Chip: $4 to $7 Through-hole: $20 to $50 [3]
A low side monitor helps measure small voltages. Circuit is composed of an amplifier, analog-to-digital converter (A/D), microprocessor (uP) and various resistors. Amplifier output is the scaled resistor voltage (VRS). Chip Hall Effect Sensors Through-Hole Hall Effect Sensor
