4 Application Information
4.1 Connecting 5 V Devices
All digital input pins of the 71M654x are compatible with external 5 V devices. I/O pins configured as
inputs do not require current-limiting resistors when they are connected to external 5 V devices.
4.2 Direct Connection of Sensors
Figure 31 through Figure 34 show voltage-sensing resistive dividers, current-sensing current transformers
(CTs) and current-sensing resistive shunts and how they are connected to the voltage and current inputs
of the 71M654x. All input signals to the 71M654x sensor inputs are voltage signals providing a scaled
representation of either a sensed voltage or current.
The analog input pins of the 71M654x are designed for sensors with low source impedance.
RC filters with resistance values higher than those implemented in the Demo Boards must not
be used. Refer to the Demo Board schematics for complete sensor input circuits and
corresponding component values.
