  • Publication number: 20240162789
    Abstract: A sensor assembly for the determination of an electric current which flows through an electric drive machine of a motor vehicle comprises a busbar through which the electric current flows, and a first and a second magnetic field sensor for determining magnetic fields in the region of the busbar, wherein the magnetic field sensors are attached so that they are spaced apart from one another in a direction perpendicular to the direction of extent of the busbar.

  • Patent number: 11444620
    Abstract: A drive circuit for a power semiconductor circuit may include input contact means for inputting a control signal, the control signal representing a switching command for the power semiconductor circuit, and also at least one output contact means, to which the power semiconductor circuit is connectable and which serves for outputting a switching signal to the power semiconductor circuit. Furthermore, the drive circuit comprises current path connection means for connecting the drive circuit to a current path to be switched by the power semiconductor circuit, and means for galvanically isolating the input contact means from the output contact means and the current path connection means. Circuit means which output a switching signal that switches on the power semiconductor circuit if a control signal representing the switch-on command for the power semiconductor circuit is input at the input contact means and also voltage is present at the current path connection means.
