Octopus Current Sensor

Octopus Electronic Bricks, you can use them to build electronics projects just as easy as piling bricks. By using Octopus electronic bricks, you may connect Arduino / Freaduino compatible boards easily with various digital, analog and I2C/Uart interfaces. These the breadboard-less firm connection are prepared to extensive modules like poteniometers, sensors, relays, servos ... even buttons, just plug and play.

Octopus Current Sensor is a sensor module based on ACS712current sensor chip, used for detecting the size of current.We use the ACS712ELC-30A chip, capable of measuring Plus or minus 30 Andhra current with high accuracy. In order to improve the accuracy, we specially adopted the reducing electromagnetic interference design, which can more accurately detect the current size.

• When current is not detected, the output voltage is VCC / 2
• Power supply needs: 5V
• Interface type: Analog
• Pin Definition: 1-Signal 2-VCC 3-GND

Features:

• Fast response and High sensitivity
• Simple drive circuit
• Stable and long life
