Abstract
The described techniques address issues associated with hybrid current or magnetic field sensors used to detect both low- and high-frequency magnetic field components. The hybrid sensor implements a DC component rejection path in the high-frequency magnetic field component path. Both digital and analog implementations are provided, each functioning to generate a DC component cancellation signal to at least partially cancel a DC component of a current signal generated via the high-frequency magnetic field component path. The hybrid sensor provides a high-bandwidth, high-accuracy, and low DC offset hybrid current solution that also eliminates the need for DC decoupling capacitors in the high-frequency path. A modification is also described for implementing a Sigma-Delta (ΣΔ) quantization noise reduction path to reduce the quantization noise and to improve accuracy.
