Performance parameters definition
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 εL 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
transducer’s 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.

Electrical offset
Response and reaction times
The electrical offset voltage VOE can either be measured when
the ferro-magnetic parts of the transducer are:
The response time tr and the reaction time tra are shown in
figure 31.
Both depend on the primary current di/dt. They are measured
at nominal ampere-turns.
●● completely demagnetized, which is difficult to realize,
●● or in a known magnetization state, like in the current cycle
shown in figure 30.

is:

The temperature variation VOT of the electrical offset voltage

Overall accuracy
The overall accuracy at 25°C 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.

Application information
Filtering and decoupling
Supply voltage VC
Output VOUT
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).
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.
Total Primary Resistance
The primary resistance is 0.72 mΩ per conductor
