The Texas Instruments AFE3010 is a single IC solution that continuously monitors an electrical circuit for multiple fault conditions to verify that the system is operating correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn addition to ground fault leakage detection, the Texas Instruments AFE3010 can detect a grounded neutral condition, which can also lead to a harmful shock from a connected appliance. The device implements a unique closed-loop grounded neutral detection scheme that eliminates the need for component resonance tuning, resulting in optimized system development time. A periodic self-test is performed once in every 180 cycles of the AC power line to ensure all the components related to the ground fault control system are working properly. In case of any component failure, the device enables an LED light and\/or trips a solenoid to open the load switch. In applications where an LED light indicator is not needed, the ALARM pin can be configured as a secondary SCR driver to drive an additional solenoid for redundancy purposes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe AFE3010 integrates shunt and LDO regulators to directly power from an AC line through a diode bridge and passive components. The AFE3010 offers flexible configurable options to implement robust application-specific protection schemes in different end-equipments such as electrical receptacles, circuit breakers, and so forth.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eSingle-chip GFCI controller to aid in the design of UL-943 compliant systems \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eBuilt-in self-test to detect end-of-life, blinks the LED and\/or trips the load switch\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDetect ground fault leakage path and trip the load switch\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDetect neutral-ground leakage path and trip the load switch\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProtection against single-component failure\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDual VDD and GND pins for redundancy\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntegrated noise filter to prevent false trips\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSimultaneously protects against HOT to GND and neutral to GND faults\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAdjustable fault current thresholds through external feedback resistors\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFast response time \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e150ms for ±5mA ground-fault current\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e85ms for ±10mA ground-fault current\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e40ms for ±30mA ground-fault current\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e10ms for ±50mA ground-fault current\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOnboard shunt regulator powers the system through passives\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSupports 120V\/60Hz or 220V\/50Hz systems\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range: �40ºC to 105ºC\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDocuments:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.sparkfun.com\/assets\/c\/6\/9\/4\/0\/DS-17209-Texas_Instruments_AFE3010_Precision_GFCI_Controller.pdf\"\u003eDatasheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"sparkfun-10","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40331939151957,"sku":"17209:COM-17209:spark","price":500.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1034\/1611\/products\/17209-Texas_Instruments_AFE3010_Precision_GFCI_Controller.jpg?v=1663614804","url":"https:\/\/www.tanotis.com\/products\/sparkfun-texas-instruments-afe3010-precision-gfci-controller","provider":"Tanotis","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
