Abstract

The invention discloses a current measurement device, which is used for measuring current in a powered-on lead wire. The current measurement device comprises a plurality of measurement units; each of the measurement units comprises a first sensor and a second sensor, wherein the first sensor is arranged along a tangent direction parallel to a magnetic field around the powered-on lead wire and used for measuring a current value within a low measurement range, and the second sensor is arranged in a manner of forming an angle with the tangent direction of the magnetic field around the powered-onlead wire and used for measuring a current value within a high measurement range; and the first sensor and the second sensor are located in the same plane vertical to a straight line where the powered-on lead wire is placed and connected with a sensor special application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) chip. By using the advantages that a triple modular redundancy (TMR) sensor is high in sensitivity and a hall sensor is wide in linear measurement range or measuring a component of the magnetic field around the powered-on lead wire by using the inclined TMR sensor, the current measurement device is high in sensitivity and wide in linear measurement range, and has the advantages of high temperature characteristic and response frequency, low power consumption and small volume.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a wide-range current measuring device made by using the tunnel junction magnetoresistance effect (TMR) as the high-sensitivity characteristic of the sensor and the high-range of the Hall sensor. Background technique [0002] Current measurement devices generally measure current through the magnetic field generated by the measured current. Currently, commonly used current measurement devices include Hall sensors, anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) sensors, giant magnetoresistance (GMR) sensors, Rogowski coils, magneto-optic glass sensors or full fiber optic sensors. Among them, due to the low sensitivity of the Hall sensor, ferromagnetic materials are often used to improve the sensitivity and accuracy through the magnetic effect; the current sensor using magneto-optical glass and all-fiber as the sensor unit has the advantage of a wide range, but its measurement accuracy, The temperature characteristics are poor, and the power...
