Overview
ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C from Allegro MicroSystems is a programmable linear Hall-effect current sensor IC designed for core-based current sensing in automotive inverters and DC-DC converters. It delivers ±1% sensitivity error, ±5 mV offset error over –40°C to 150°C, 240 kHz bandwidth, 2 µs response time, and integrated undervoltage detection (UVD) for diagnostic compliance.
For engineers reviewing the ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C datasheet, ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C pinout, ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C application, or ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, package mapping, real-world application cards, and two validated alternative parts with documented functional and selection differences.
Technical Context
The ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C integrates a proprietary Hall element with BiCMOS signal conditioning, dynamic offset cancellation, and segmented linear temperature compensation. Its architecture includes an onboard supply regulator with reverse-battery protection, programmable output clamps, and broken-ground detection logic.
It supports low-voltage programming (≤ VCC), UVD with 4.2 V nominal threshold and 250 mV hysteresis, and ratiometric output behavior configurable per application ADC interface requirements. The device operates across DC to 240 kHz with propagation delay ≤1.65 µs and slew rate ≥410 V/ms under 10 kΩ load.
Key Specifications

| Output Clamps | VCLP_H = 4.7 V, VCLP_L = 0.3 V - provides short-circuit fault indication without external circuitry |
Pinout & Package
ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C uses the 4-pin SIP OK package (1 mm case thickness, TX leadform), optimized for current-sensing modules with enhanced mechanical robustness and solder joint reliability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: VCC | Power input & programming supply | Accepts 4.5–5.5 V; withstands ±18 V transient; powers internal regulator and EEPROM during programming |
| 2: VOUT | Analog output & programming data line | Delivers ratiometric voltage proportional to magnetic flux; used with Manchester protocol for trim calibration |
| 3: PROG_EN | Low-voltage programming enable | Pulled low to enter programming mode; eliminates need for >VCC voltages; improves ESD robustness when tied to GND |
| 4: GND | Reference ground & broken-wire detection node | Open-circuit detection triggers VBRK_H/VBRK_L output states for fail-safe diagnostics |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-programmed TC | ±1% sensitivity error and ±5 mV offset error maintained from –40°C to 150°C via segmented linear compensation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar programmable Hall-effect current sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ACS70310LKTATN-010B5-C | Lacks UVD and low-voltage programming; uses KT package with thinner leads; no PROG_EN pin (NC/GND instead) | Not suitable for ASIL-B diagnostic requirements; requires external programming voltage >VCC; less robust in module-level assembly | Select only if UVD and simplified programming are not required and KT package form factor is preferred |
| ACS70311LKTATN-010B5-C | Same functionality and specs, but uses KT package (TH/TG/TN leadforms); identical pinout except PROG_EN replaces NC/GND | Better suited for PCB-mounted designs; lower profile than OK package; less ideal for busbar-integrated modules | Choose for surface-mount applications where mechanical vibration tolerance is needed but module integration is not required |
Compared with ACS70310LKTATN-010B5-C, the ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C adds mandatory diagnostics (UVD, broken-GND) and simplifies production programming; compared with ACS70311LKTATN-010B5-C, it trades PCB footprint for enhanced mechanical retention and thermal performance in current-sensing modules.

FAQ
What is the factory-programmed sensitivity of ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C?
The ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C is factory-programmed to a nominal sensitivity of 10 mV/G, within a customer-programmable range of 5.5–11.5 mV/G. This value is set during final test and enables precise scaling for ±150 G full-scale magnetic field input when used with a ferromagnetic core. The device maintains ±1% sensitivity error across –40°C to 150°C due to segmented linear temperature compensation.
Does ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C support bidirectional current sensing?
Yes, ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C supports bidirectional current sensing. Its quiescent output voltage is factory-set to 2.5 V at 5 V supply, enabling symmetric positive/negative current measurement around that midpoint. The device's magnetic polarity response - south pole increasing VOUT, north pole decreasing VOUT - is defined in the functional block diagram and confirmed by its B-directional suffix 'B5' in the part number.
What package type does ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C use, and how does it differ from KT?
ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C uses the OK package - a 4-pin SIP variant with longer, thicker leads optimized for current-sensing modules and busbar mounting. Unlike the KT package, OK offers improved mechanical retention and thermal dissipation (RθJA = 177°C/W vs. 174°C/W), and is only available with TX leadform. The OK package is exclusive to ACS70311 variants and supports the PROG_EN pin function.
How does the undervoltage detection (UVD) feature work in ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C?
The UVD circuit in ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C monitors VCC and asserts a diagnostic condition when voltage falls below 4.2 V (typical), with 250 mV hysteresis. It activates within 64 µs of threshold breach and deactivates after 1.4 µs once VCC recovers. This feature is exclusive to ACS70311 devices and provides early warning before system brown-out compromises control-loop integrity in automotive applications.
Can ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C be programmed in-system without external voltage sources?
Yes, ACS70311LOKATX-010B5-C supports true low-voltage programming: all trim operations - including sensitivity, offset, and clamp settings - are performed using only the VCC supply (4.5–5.5 V), with no need for auxiliary programming voltages. The PROG_EN pin enables this mode and eliminates risk of overvoltage damage during calibration, making it suitable for automated end-of-line testing and field reconfiguration.
