APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR A CURRENT SENSOR

摘要

A current sensor (402) may include a sense element (604) disposed proximate a conductor (542). The current sensor may be configured to couple to a first magnetic field (548) generated at the conductor when current flows in the conductor. An output (48) electrically connected to the sense element can produce a signal (Vout) that is representative of the flow of current in the conductor. The sense element may be oriented in a plane parallel to magnetic field lines (546) of a second magnetic field generated by a load (544) connected to the conductor.
