[Q0157] ・What is the difference of maximum primary current and linear sensing range?
-
A. ・Maximum primary current indicates the current value which can be applied for a long time in current sensor and depends on the cross-sectional area of the primary conductor. CQ-2 series can be damaged when they have been used for a long time over the maximum effective current value. If current flows at a short period within msec, such as an over current, CQ-2 series is not damaged. Linear sensing range is a current range where linear output of the current sensor is guaranteed. Output will be saturated when the current value exceeds the linear sensing range, and will return to normal output when the current value returns within the linear sensing range.

-
[Q0165] ・What does "ratiometric" mean?
-
A. ・Ratiometric output means the output characteristic which varies in proportional to the power supply voltage. In the case that the output of a current sensor is captured by an A/D converter, ratiometric output can reduce the A/D conversion error due to variations of the reference voltage of A/D converter, by maiking reference voltage from the same power source as the current sensor. Both sensitivity and output voltage of CQ2 series have the ratiometric characteristics. Recommended circuit is shown in Fig 1.

For CQ-Series, take care to avoid dipping a magnetic core. 2. Hand soldering (using soldering iron) Solder under thermal load at 260°C for less than 10 seconds, or 350°C for less than 3 seconds, without touching the body of the element. Hand soldering should be completed twice. 3. Reflow When reflow is employed, processing within the temperature profile shown in Figure 3 is recommended. Reflow soldering should be completed twice. 4. Solder flux Colophonium system solder flux is recommended. Use of an organic acid system, inorganic acid system or water-soluble fluxes should be avoided.

We recommend long-term storage in a nitrogen atmosphere. The lead of the element will be oxidized by the oxygen in the atmosphere, and the soldering characteristics will deteriorate if the elements are stored in a normal atmosphere.
