Hi,
What about posting a link to the datasheet?
CT means you want to measure AC. No DC. So what waveform is the signal and what frequency?
A CT may work ... but it depends on your applications requirements whether a CT is useful.
Why are you focussed on CT?

I´m doing electronics design for decades now.
Your task is to measure current. But you don´t give any requirement - besides 50mA.
Using a CT is a part of the solution.
And now you look for specifications
So you do it this way:
Task --> solution --> specification
My way is:
Task --> decide specification/requirements --> find solution
I guess the signal flow is:
Source (50mA) --> CT --> ?? --> measurement device --> ?? --> the value you are after
Examples:
* Source (50mA) --> CT --> amplifier, filter --> ADC, microcontoller --> RMS calculation --> RMS current
or
* Source (50mA) --> CT --> RMS-to-DC converter --> ADC, microcontroller --> LSB to current calculation --> Display RMS current
Just two basic ways to measure RMS current using a microcontroller. Rather different, with different ways to process data. With different requirements.
We don´t know whether you are after RMS value or not, whether it is mains frequency or RF, whether you expect 5mA accuracy or 50uA accuracy.
Whether one has to expect pulses...
