What this Hall sensor brings to a current-sense node
The TI TMCS1107A3BQDT is a single-channel Hall-effect current sensor that outputs a ratiometric voltage proportional to the sensed current. It measures both AC and DC over a ±11.25 A range with a sensitivity of 200 mV/A and linearity of ±0.5%.
Housed in an 8-SOIC (3.90 mm width) package, surface-mount. The Hall element is internal — no external magnetic core or shield required. The 6 mA max supply current keeps the self-heating low, so thermal derating on the PCB is minimal. Standard SOIC-8 footprint, no special layout beyond keeping the high-current traces short and wide to minimise IR drop that could couple into the sense path.
