A miniature dc current sensor based on magnetoimpedance

Abstract: A dc electric current sensor, based on the magnetoimpedance phenomenon, is presented. The basic element of this sensor is a nonmagnetotstrictive, amorphous ferromagnetic wire of composition (Co0.94Fe0.06)72,5B15Si12.5, in the as-cast state. The dc current to be monitored flows through a solenoid, and the magnetic field produced by this solenoid on the wire leads to a controlled decrease of its impedance response. This impedance dependence on the axial field is used to measure the dc current. An important featu… Show more

“…Some prototype sensors employing these materials as sensing elements, i.e., magnetic field sensors [46][47][48][49][50], current sensors [51,52], position sensors [53,54], stress sensors [55,56], torque sensor [57], biosensors [58][59][60][61][62][63], were proposed and successfully developed. The current progress of GMI is thrusted toward the increase of magnetic-field sensitivity and the optimization of the signal-to-noise ratio in the GMI sensor devices [64,65].…”
