Overview
PAC1711 Click is a compact add-on board that provides accurate real-time measurement of voltage, current, and power consumption for embedded and industrial systems. It is based on the PAC1711, a single-channel DC power monitor from Microchip that integrates a high-side current sense amplifier and a bus voltage monitor feeding a 12-bit ADC. The device performs automatic power calculations and long-term energy accumulation with programmable sampling rates, integration periods, and one-shot measurement modes accessible via the I2C interface. The Click board supports voltage measurements up to 42V and currents up to 13.5A, includes two configurable alert pins for event notifications or interface address selection. Its built-in real-time calibration and adjustable averaging ensure high-resolution, low-noise performance without external filtering enhances system integration. It is ideal for embedded computing, battery management, automotive, networking, and power optimization applications.
PAC1711 Click is fully compatible with the mikroBUS™ socket and can be used on any host system supporting the mikroBUS™ standard. It comes with the mikroSDK open-source libraries, offering unparalleled flexibility for evaluation and customization. What sets this Click board™ apart is the groundbreaking ClickID feature, enabling your host system to automatically detect and identify this add-on board, alongside a Click Snap feature introducing a new level of flexibility and ease of use.
