AC Current Sensor With OP Amp
The module is equipped with ZMCT103C series small high-precision current transformers and high-precision operational amplifier circuits to accurately sample and properly compensate signals. It is convenient for signal acquisition of AC power within 5A. The corresponding output analog AC signal can be adjusted. The required output voltage can be adjusted according to the potentiometer (adjusting the amplification ratio, the amplification range is 0-100 times), but the maximum voltage at the output (OUT) will not exceed 1/2 VCC.

When measuring, the signal wire to be tested passes through the hole of the transformer, VCC and GND are connected to the DC 5-30V power supply, VOUT and GND are connected to the oscilloscope, and the potentiometer is adjusted to get the waveform you want, where the amplitude of the waveform will be The measured current increases and increases, but the maximum does not exceed 1/2VCC.
The following figure shows the waveform measured when VCC is connected to a 5V power supply and one of the 60W soldering irons passes through the round hole of the transformer:

During measurement, the signal conductor to be measured passes through the hole of the transformer, and S and G are connected to the oscilloscope, where the amplitude of the waveform increases as the current to be measured increases.
