GUIDE
The Si85xx products are unidirectional ac current sensors available with full scale current sense input ranges of 5,
10, and 20 A. Si85xx products are ideal upgrades for older current-sensing technologies offering size, performance
and cost advantages over current transformers, Hall Effect devices, DCR circuits, and other approaches. The
Si85xx are extremely low-loss, adding less than 1.3 mΩ of series resistance and less than 2 nH series inductance
in the sensing path at 25 ºC. Current-sensing terminals are isolated from the other package pins to a maximum
voltage of 1,000 VDC.
1. Kit Contents
The Si85xx Unidirectional AC Current Sensor Development Kit contains the following items:
„ 10 Amp Si8512 based evaluation board
„ Si85xx Unidirectional AC Current Sensor Target Board User's Guide (this document)
2. Hardware Overview
The Si85xx Target Board (Si85xx-TB, see Figure 1) provides a means to evaluate the ac current sensor in an
existing application. It is meant to be soldered directly into the users existing power supply. The board comes with
the Si8512 installed and provides a 10 Amp full scale input sense range and a 2.0 V full scale output voltage. For
more details on the Si8512, refer to the Si85xx Data Sheet.

4.1. VIN (J1, J2)
The user-provided power supply should be connected to connectors J1 and J2 where J2 is the reference. The
power source must be 5 V with at least 100 mA maximum output current.

4.3. R1, R2, R3, R4 Inputs, OUT1, OUT2 Outputs (J4)
Connector J4 is used to provide the control inputs (R1, R2, R3, R4, MODE) to the Si85xx. It also provides the
output voltage of the sensed input current on OUT1 and OUT2.

4.6. TRST RESET (J7)
Connector J7 is used to set the timing for the Si85xx's integrator. J7 defaults to Reset option 1 where TRST is tied
VDD providing approximately 200 ns of reset time. Reset option 2 is selected by connecting a timing resistor (R1 in
Figure 4) from the TRST input to ground.
