The article is devoted to circuit simulation of functional units of a magnetoelectric current sensor. The magnetoelectric current sensor is designed to measure the current in electrical circuits of direct or alternating current in electrical engineering. The advantages of the developed magnetoelectric current sensors over existing analogs are higher sensitivity, lower power consumption, wide dynamic range of the output voltage, and better linearity of the output characteristics. In the course of the simulation, a model of the OA MCP6024-E/ST microcircuit from Microchip Technology Inc. was used, which is used as a signal amplifier for a magnetoelectric sensing element in a current sensor. Simulation of the signal generation unit, peak detector and linear amplifier was carried out. Circuitry solutions were proposed to improve the parameters of existing current sensors. Solutions have been found to ensure the temperature stability of the sensor. The developed magnetoelectric current sensors can be manufactured using integral technology and become a significant competitor to the traditional Hall effect sensors.
