Recently, I’ve been working on a solar off-grid monitoring system. In the system are a few split-core Hall effect sensors to monitor DC current in the solar panel current, the battery charge current, ...

With increasing concerns about the global demand for energy and the overall expansion of environmental awareness, designers for power electronics applications are under constant pressure to improve ...

Fluxgate current sensors have emerged as a robust technology for the measurement of both alternating and direct currents, harnessing the non-linear magnetic characteristics of ferromagnetic materials.

The technique is called high-side current sensing. However, measurements at that location are fraught with problems. Of primary concern is that the measurement is at main line voltage, a problem if ...

Sensor manufacturers typically calibrate the devices in the factory to achieve highly accurate outputs, but all sensors experience some offset error once they are in ...

Allegro MicroSystems had introduced 1MHz bandwidth current sensors that can measure hundreds of amps – the first fruit of its acquisition of Crocus Technologies. The technology is tunneling ...
