[Infineon XENSIV™ — TLI4971 high-precision coreless current sensor](
Digi-Key Electronics
The [XENSIV™ TLI4971]( available from [Digi-Key]( is a high-precision miniature coreless magnetic current sensor for AC and DC measurements with an analog interface and dual fast overcurrent detection outputs. Infineon's well-established and robust Hall technology enables accurate and highly linear measurement of currents with a full measurement range up to ±120 A. All negative effects (saturation, hysteresis) commonly known from sensors using flux concentration techniques are avoided.

[How to crimp wires](
"Crimping is a common method for compressing a terminal to a wire conductor without the use of soldering. When done correctly, a crimp creates a mechanically sound connection that resists corrosion, gas, and liquids. If you’ve ever crimped a terminal to a wire, you know that it’s not the most glamorous of tasks." [Read this article in its entirety](.
