ACS711KLCTR-12AB-T

Allegro MicroSystems LLC · Current Sensors · SOP-8

ACS711KLCTR-12AB-T from Allegro MicroSystems LLC, in a SOP-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 IP+ passive Primary current sense terminal (positive). Pins 1 and 2 are internally fused and form one side of the ~1.2 mΩ internal current-sensing conductor. Rated for 100 VAC/VDC working isolation to pins 5-8.
2 IP+ passive Primary current sense terminal (positive). Tied internally to pin 1; both must be connected in parallel to carry the primary current.
3 IP- passive Primary current sense terminal (negative/return). Pins 3 and 4 are internally fused and form the return side of the internal ~1.2 mΩ conduction path.
4 IP- passive Primary current sense terminal (negative/return). Tied internally to pin 3; both must be connected in parallel to carry the primary current.
5 GND power_in Signal ground terminal. Reference for VCC, VIOUT, and FAULT.
6 FAULT output Overcurrent fault output; active low, open-drain. Latches low when
7 VIOUT output Analog output signal. Ratiometric voltage proportional to primary current IP with 110 mV/A sensitivity centered at VCC/2 for IP = 0 A. VIOH = VCC-0.3 V max, VIOL = 0.3 V max; drives up to 1 nF load; 100 kHz bandwidth, 4.6 µs response time.
8 VCC power_in Device power supply terminal. 3 V to 5.5 V (3.3 V nominal for rated accuracy). Supply current ICC ≈ 4 mA typ (5.5 mA max). Bypass with 0.1 µF ceramic to GND.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
acs711klctr-12ab-t.step 122 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
acs711klctr-12ab-t-etched.step 2.6 MB You want the part with ACS711KLCTR-12AB-T already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 664 faces against 147 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
