Product details
Overview
ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C from Allegro MicroSystems is a programmable, bidirectional, high-bandwidth Hall-effect current sensor IC designed for core-based current sensing in automotive inverters and DC-DC converters. It delivers factory-programmed 5 mV/G sensitivity, ±1% sensitivity error, ±5 mV offset error over –40°C to 150°C, and integrates undervoltage detection (UVD) and low-voltage programming.
For engineers reviewing the ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C datasheet, ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C pinout, ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C application, or ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C equivalent, key selection criteria include UVD functionality, 240 kHz bandwidth, 2 µs response time, OK-package mechanical robustness for current-sensing modules, and customer programmability of offset and sensitivity within ±5.5 mV/G range.
Technical Context
The ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C implements dynamic offset cancellation, segmented linear temperature compensation, and patented spiking suppression circuits to maintain accuracy under fast current transients. Its on-chip regulator supports ±18 V supply tolerance and reverse-battery protection, while broken-ground detection and output clamps provide automotive-grade diagnostics.
It features EEPROM-based programming logic with 9-bit fine offset and 11-bit total sensitivity control (2 coarse + 9 fine bits), enabling post-manufacturing calibration. The device operates ratiometrically but allows disabling ratiometry for ADC interface flexibility, and its UVD threshold is factory-set at 4.2 V nominal with 250 mV hysteresis.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Hall-effect current sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ACS70311LKTATX-005B5-C | Same die, KT package (shorter/thinner leads); 174°C/W thermal resistance vs. OK's 177°C/W | Better suited for PCB-mounted sensing where space is constrained; less robust in high-vibration module environments | Select KT for compact board-level integration; OK for bolt-in current-sensing modules requiring mechanical stability |
| ACS71250KMATR-005B5-C | Non-programmable, fixed 5 mV/G; no UVD, no low-voltage programming; 80 kHz bandwidth | Lacks diagnostic features and programmability; limited to non-safety-critical, cost-sensitive applications | Choose only if UVD, programmability, and 240 kHz bandwidth are not required; lower BOM cost but reduced design flexibility |
Compared with ACS70311LKTATX-005B5-C, the OK-package variant offers superior mechanical retention in module assemblies, while ACS71250KMATR-005B5-C sacrifices diagnostics and bandwidth for simplicity-making ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C the optimal choice for ASIL-B compliant, high-dynamic-range automotive current sensing.

FAQ
What is the factory-programmed sensitivity of ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C?
The ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C has a factory-programmed sensitivity of 5 mV/G, with a programmable range of ±0.5 mV/G (2.5–5.5 mV/G). This value is set during final test and guaranteed across –40°C to 150°C with ±1% error, enabling precise current scaling without external calibration in core-based sensing configurations.
Does ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C support undervoltage detection?
Yes, ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C includes integrated undervoltage detection (UVD) with a nominal threshold of 4.2 V and 250 mV hysteresis. UVD asserts a diagnostic state on VOUT when VCC falls below VUVD_L, providing early warning before system brownout affects control loop stability.
What package type does ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C use, and how does it differ from KT?
ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C uses the OK-package 4-pin SIP with TX leadform (lead-formed). Compared to KT, OK features longer and thicker leads for enhanced mechanical retention in current-sensing modules, making it ideal for bolt-in applications subject to high vibration and thermal cycling.
Can ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C be programmed after soldering to the PCB?
Yes, ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C supports in-system programming via Manchester-coded signals on VOUT using PROG_EN. Low-voltage programming eliminates the need for >VCC voltages, allowing full offset and sensitivity trimming post-assembly without removing the device from the board.
What is the maximum operating bandwidth of ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C?
The ACS70311LOKATX-005B5-C has a small-signal –3 dB bandwidth of 240 kHz, verified with CL = 1 nF and RL = 10 kΩ at TA = 25°C. This enables accurate capture of high-frequency current harmonics in SiC/GaN-based power converters without phase distortion.
