  • Patent number: 7663358
    Abstract: A current sensor which can measure accurately current of a wide range, at low cost. A C-shaped shield plate is positioned around a flow direction of a current of the bus bar. When the current flows through the bus bar, magnetic flux density of a magnetic field is generated. A magneto-electronic conversion element detects the magnetic flux density of the magnetic field, and converts the magnetic flux density into an electric signal. Furthermore, the magneto-electronic conversion element is arranged near a position where the previously measured magnetic flux density of the magnetic field, which is generated when a current flows through the bus bar, is minimized between the conductor and the shield plate.

  • Patent number: 7615986
    Abstract: A temperature detection function-incorporating current sensor includes a Hall IC, connector terminals for respectively outputting signals, detected by the Hall IC, to the exterior. The Hall IC includes a magnetism detection portion for detecting a magnitude of a magnetic field, a temperature detection portion for detecting an ambient temperature, and a temperature compensation portion for correcting an error of the magnetism detection portion due to temperature dependency based on the temperature detected by the temperature detection portion. The detection signal of the magnetism detection portion, corrected with respect to the error, and the temperature signal detected by the temperature detection portion are outputted via the connector terminals to the exterior. In this current sensor, it is not necessary to provide an additional temperature detection part, and also it is not necessary to effect an operation for connecting such a part to a board.
