CSLA2GD

Current Sensors Overview

The CSLA2GD is a board-mount current sensor from Honeywell, designed for measuring AC and DC currents up to 72A. It utilizes an open-loop Hall effect sensing technology with a single channel configuration. The device features a bidirectional output and operates within a supply voltage range of 12V. It offers a response time of 3 microseconds and functions reliably across a temperature range of -25°C to +85°C. The sensor is housed in a module package suitable for through-hole or board mounting applications.

Current Sensors Feature Summary

• Open-loop Hall effect sensing technology for accurate current measurement
• Bidirectional detection capability for both AC and DC signals
• Fast 3 microsecond response time for dynamic load monitoring
• Single-channel module design for compact integration

Current Sensors Applications

• Industrial motor control systems
• Power supply unit monitoring
• Battery management systems
• Inverter and converter circuits

Current Sensors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the official Honeywell datasheet to ensure correct pinout and electrical specifications. Confirm that the open-loop variant matches the system's accuracy requirements. Check lead times as production cycles may vary. Ensure the module package type aligns with the PCB footprint design. Validate operating temperature ranges against environmental conditions.

Current Sensors Selection Notes

Select this component when a cost-effective solution for moderate current levels around 72A is required. The open-loop architecture provides sufficient performance for general industrial applications without the complexity of closed-loop designs. Consider the 3us response time for applications requiring rapid feedback. Ensure the 12V supply voltage is compatible with the host system logic levels.

Current Sensors Part Context

This part belongs to the CSLA series of board-mount current sensors by Honeywell. It complements other models like CSLA2DJI and CSLA2DKI which offer higher current ratings of 225A and 400A respectively. The CSLA2GD serves as a lower-range option within the same family, sharing similar form factors and interface characteristics but tailored for smaller current loads.

Current Sensors Replacement Considerations

CSLA2DJI and CSLA2DKI are available from the same manufacturer but support higher current ratings of 225A and 400A. These substitutes may be used if higher capacity is needed, though they differ in electrical specifications. No direct equivalent part numbers are confirmed in the provided data.
