How does

current sensor work?
There is 6 pins and at least two coils (besides the core itself). Looks like one bobbin had ome coil on it and the other bobbin has 4 connections.
There seems to be no IC, no sensor or anything in there.
If it is a lame ass current transducer only, why the 6 pins? Some sort of calibration feature? How would it be connected and used? Am I right that this will only react to AC?
The manufaturer produces a current sensor under the same model name, but it is of the 3 pin variety and the manufacturer makes it clear it's hall effect. So they must have updated the product line and just kept the name while changing the technology entirely?
