In an example, a system includes circuitry on a first side of an isolation barrier and circuitry on a second side of the isolation barrier, where the isolation barrier is operable to electrically isolate the first side from the second side. The system also includes a trimmed oscillator, a first transmitter, and a first receiver on the first side, the trimmed oscillator coupled to the first transmitter. The system includes a tunable oscillator, a second transmitter, and a second receiver on the second side, the tunable oscillator coupled to the second receiver and the second transmitter. In the system, the first side is configured to transmit a training sequence to the second side, and the second side is configured to tune the tunable oscillator based on the training sequence.

An integrated fluxgate magnetic gradient sensor includes a common mode sensitive fluxgate magnetometer and a differential mode sensitive fluxgate magnetometer. The common mode sensitive fluxgate magnetometer includes a first core adjacent to a second core. The first and second cores are wrapped by a first excitation wire coil configured to receive an excitation current that affects a differential mode magnetic field. The differential mode sensitive fluxgate magnetometer includes a third core adjacent to the first core and a fourth core adjacent to the second core. The third and fourth cores are wrapped by a second excitation wire coil configured to receive an excitation current that affects a common mode magnetic field.

Automated degaussing methods and apparatus are presented for degaussing a magnetic core in close loop fashion, in which a plurality of pulses are applied to a compensation coil magnetically coupled with the core with duration or energy being decreased in succeeding pulse cycles according to a discrete feedback algorithm, and with individual pulse polarities being set according to core magnetization polarity measured subsequent to an immediately preceding pulse.
