Abstract: A current sensor includes an excitation detection winding configured such that an excitation signal for exciting a second magnetic core is input, the excitation detection winding detects magnetic flux flowing through the second magnetic core and outputs a detection signal indicating a measurement-target current. The current sensor includes an auxiliary winding that detects the magnetic flux and outputs an auxiliary signal indicating the measurement-target current. The current sensor includes a feedback winding wound around first and second magnetic cores, the feedback winding being configured such that a signal generated from the detection signal is input, and the feedback winding being wound to cancel out magnetic flux of the first and second magnetic cores. The current sensor includes a circuit to output an output signal indicating a level of the measurement-target current by modifying a signal output from the feedback winding based on a correction signal generated from the auxiliary signal.
