IL4145AN

The IL4145AN is a low power controller for AC outlet ground fault interrupters. These devices detect hazardous grounding conditions, such as equipment (connected to opposite phases of the AC line) in contact with a pool of water and open circuits the line before a harmful or lethal shock occurs.

Contained internally are a 26V zener shunt regulator, an op amp, and an SCR driver. With the addition of two sense transformers, a bridge rectifier, an SCR, a relay, and a few additional components, the IL4145AN will detect and protect against both hot wire to ground and neutral wire to ground faults. The simple layout and conventional design ensure ease of application and long-term reliability.
