Abstract
A current sensor device for measuring a current in a conductor comprising: current sensing means comprising a magnetic sensing element for contactlessly measuring the current; amplification means arranged to act in a first and second state, said amplification means in said first and second state being arranged for amplifying a first and second signal, respectively, from said current sensing means with an adjustable first gain and a second gain and a first and second bandwidth to yield a first and second amplified signal, respectively, wherein said first gain is higher than the second gain, wherein the first gain and the second gain are larger than 1; processing means for controlling at least said first gain, for detecting an event based on at least said second amplified signal and for producing a signal indicative of said event; an output terminal arranged for outputting a signal indicative of said current based on said first amplified signal; and an output terminal arranged for outputting said signal indicative of the event.
