Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6629413
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
To provide a current sensor, a current measurement module, and a smart meter capable of enabling high accuracy measurement over a wide measuring range with low power consumption.SOLUTION: A current sensor comprises: a plurality of magneto-resistive elements; and a first magnetic body. Resistance values of the plurality of magneto-resistive elements change by applying an induction field to each of the plurality of magneto-resistive elements from measuring target current. The first magnetic body applies a first offset magnetic field to a first magneto-resistive element among the plurality of magneto-resistive elements generally in parallel to the induction field. Furthermore, a smart meter according to one embodiment of the present invention mounts therein, for example, the current sensor according to the present embodiment.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
