Abstract: A method, apparatus and non-transitory computer-readable medium of regulating current within a battery charging circuit. The apparatus including a first current sense resistor configured to sense a first current value at a first port, a second current sensor resistor configured to sense a battery discharge current value output from a battery, and a processor configured to, in response to a short circuit or malfunction at the first current sense resistor, use the battery discharge current value to determine an output current limit and to limit the current at the first port according to the output current limit.

Abstract: Various examples are provided for contactless wideband current sensing. A combination of magnetoresistive (MR) sensor and Rogowski coil outputs can be combined to provide current sensing from DC to 10 MHZ or more. In one example, a system includes a MR sensor that can provide an MR output voltage corresponding to a magnitude of the current through a trace; a Rogowski coil sensor that can provide a Rogowski output voltage corresponding to a magnitude of the current; and processing circuitry configured to generate an output current signal by aggregating the MR and Rogowski output voltages. In another example, a method includes conditioning an output from a MR sensor disposed adjacent to a trace carrying a current; conditioning an output from a Rogowski coil disposed adjacent to the trace; and aggregating the first and second conditioned signals to provide an output current signal corresponding to the current passing through the trace.
