Abstract
A current sensor () serves to detect an alternating current (). The current sensor () comprises a coupler () designed to decouple a proportional part of the alternating current () as a measurement current (). In addition, the current sensor () comprises a switching terminal designed to feed in a switching signal (). The current sensor () furthermore includes a switchable rectifier () designed to rectify the measurement current () in a manner controlled by the switching signal () and to output it as a rectified measurement current (Vsense).
