LEM HC5FW 600-S/SP1 HC5FW Automotive Current Sensor
600A Rated Current x ±600A Measuring Range — High-Compactness Open-Loop Sensor for Automotive Motor Control
LEM HC5FW 600-S/SP1 Product Overview
The HC5FW 600-S/SP1 is an open-loop Hall effect current transducer from LEM's HC5FW series, designed for the electronic measurement of DC, AC, and pulsed currents with galvanic isolation between the primary and secondary circuits . This PCB-mount sensor is specifically engineered for mid to high-power automotive applications, featuring a compact design that accommodates a busbar inserted directly into the sensor slot . The HC5FW family uses a proprietary ASIC developed by LEM combined with a precisely assembled and calibrated magnetic core to ensure outstanding performance and reliability in demanding automotive environments .
Rated for 600 A nominal with a ±600 A measuring range, it outputs a fully ratiometric voltage of 2.5 V ± 2 V (instantaneous) with 2% accuracy and ±1% linearity . Sensitivity is 3.33 mV/A . Response time is 6 µs and bandwidth is 40 kHz . Supply voltage is 5 V (4.75 to 5.25 V) with a maximum current consumption of 25 mA . Operating temperature is -40°C to +125°C . This unidirectional sensor is designed for PCB through-hole mounting .
