Offering superior accuracy, stability and electrical isolation, Bourns® Digital DC Current Sensors provide high accuracy over a wide operating temperature range

RIVERSIDE, Calif., July 1, 2024 - Bourns, Inc., a leading manufacturer and supplier of electronic components for power, protection, and sensing solutions, today announced the release of the Model SSD Shunt Sensor - Digital Series. The series includes innovatively designed digital DC shunt-based current sensors that offer superior accuracy, stability and electrical isolation over a wide -40 °C to +115 °C operating temperature range. These small and highly-integrated digital System-in-Package (SiP) devices are well-suited for a wide variety of battery-related current sensing applications including large-scale energy storage banks, renewable energy generation infrastructure, industrial motor drives, building automation systems, and EV charging stations.

The series features a 16-bit automotive-grade microcontroller unit (MCU) and delivers accuracy of ±0.1 % full scale. The internal 24-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) offers plug-and-play simplicity, helping to significantly streamline implementation so engineers can quickly add high-accuracy current measurement into their latest designs or retrofit it into existing ones. These shunt-based sensors also help eliminate the need for periodic device calibrations, all while providing highly accurate measurements that contribute to more efficient use of power. There are two models: the RS-485 serial interface model, which can also be configured as MODBUS RTU, and the customizable CANbus model.

The Model SSD Shunt Sensor – Digital Series is available now. For additional product information, please see: www.bourns.com/products/sensors/current-sensors.
