Current sensing
The contactless current sensor consists of a CMOS Hall effect sensor with a thin ferromagnetic layer structured on its surface. The integrated magnetic concentrator layer (IMC-Hall®) provides a high magnetic gain which significantly increases the signal to noise ratio of the sensor.
