Ampere-turns and amperes

Sensitivity and linearity

The transducer is sensitive to the primary current linkage


QP (also called ampere-turns).

To measure sensitivity and linearity, the primary current (DC)


is cycled from 0 to IP, then to -IP and back to 0 (equally spaced
IP/10 steps).
The sensitivity G is defined as the slope of the linear regression line for a cycle between IPN.

QP=NPIP(At)

Where NPIP the number of primary turn (1, 2 or 3



depending on the connection of the primary

jumpers)
Caution: As most applications will use the transducer with only
one single primary turn (NP = 1), much of this datasheet is
written in terms of primary current instead of current linkages.
However, the ampere-turns (A-t) unit is used to emphasis that
current linkages are intended and applicable.

Transducer simplified model


The static model of the transducer at temperature TA is:
VOUT = G QP + error

The linearity error L is the maximum positive or negative


difference between the measured points and the linear
regression line, expressed in % of IPN.

Magnetic offset
The magnetic offset current IOM is the consequence of a current on the primary side (memory effect of the transducers
ferro-magnetic parts). It is included in the linearity figure but
can be measured individually.
It is measured using the following primary current cycle.
IOM depends on the current value IP1.

In which error =

VOE + VOT (TA) + G QPG + L(QPmax)QPmaxG + TCG(TA-25)QPG

Electrical offset

Overall accuracy

The electrical offset voltage VOE can either be measured when


the ferro-magnetic parts of the transducer are:

The overall accuracy at 25C XG is the error in the - IPN .. + IPN


range, relative to the rated value IPN.
It includes:
the electrical offset VOE
the sensitivity error eG
the linearity error eL (to IPN)
The magnetic offset is part of the overall accuracy. It is taken
into account in the linearity error figure provided the
transducer has not been magnetized by a current higher than
IPN.

or in a known magnetization state, like in the current cycle
shown in figure 30.

Application information

Filtering and decoupling


Supply voltage VC

Reference VREF

The fluxgate oscillator draws current pulses of up to 30 mA at


a rate of ca. 900 kHz. Significant 900 kHz voltage ripple on
VC can indicate a power supply with high impedance. At these
frequencies the power supply rejection ratio is low, and the
ripple may appear on the transducer output VOUT and reference
VREF. The transducer has internal decoupling capacitors, but in
the case of a power supply with high impedance, it is advised
to provide local decoupling (100 nF or more, located close to
the transducer)

Ripple present on the reference output can be filtered with a


low value of capacitance because of the internal 680 Ohm
series resistance. The maximum filter capacitance value is
1 F.Application information

10 9 8

Output VOUT
The output VOUT has a very low output impedance of
typically 2 Ohms; it can drive 100 pF directly. Adding series
Rf = 100 Ohms allows much larger capacitive loads. Empirical
evaluation may be necessary to obtain optimum results.
The minimum load resistance on VOUT is 1 kOhm.

External reference voltage


If the Ref pin of the transducer is not used it could be either left unconnected or filtered according to the previous paragraph
Reference VREF.
The Ref pin has two modes Ref IN and Ref OUT:
In the Ref OUT mode the 2.5 V internal precision reference is used by the transducer as the reference point for bipolar
measurements; this internal reference is connected to the Ref pin of the transducer through a 680 Ohms resistor. it tolerates
sink or source currents up to 5 mA, but the 680 Ohms resistor prevents this current to exceed these limits.
In the Ref IN mode, an external reference voltage is connected to the Ref pin; this voltage is specified in the range 0 to 4 V
and is directly used by the transducer as the reference point for measurements.
The external reference voltage Vref must be able:

- either to source a typical current of

- or to sink a typical current of
