Any reason you did not consider using the ACS711 which supports a VCC of 3.3v?

I don't see ACS711 as a direct drop-in replacement for ACS712, datasheet quote: "The Allegro™ ACS711 provides economical and precise solutions for AC or DC current sensing in <100 V audio, communications systems, and white goods."
If your needs are covered by the ACS711 working domain, might be.

It does for me, I need to sense if a device is on (~1.7A) or in standby (~0.01A) @19v. Is this an overkill for this?
Surprising that the ACS711 is rather though to find at the local sources.
