Magnetic probe-based current measurement device, and measurement method

Abstract

A magnetic probe-based current measurement device and measurement method is disclosed. The device comprises a conductor for a current under test, a magnetic probe, a magnetic bias structure, and a programmable chip. A conductor has a first axis, a second axis, and a third axis. The conductor is provided with through holes. The direction of the through holes are parallel to the third axis. Vertical projections of the through holes on a first cross section are symmetric about the first axis. At least one of the through holes has a center position located on the first axis. And/or every pair of the through holes have center positions that are symmetric about the first axis. The magnetic probe is provided within the through holes, and is electrically connected to the programmable chip. A sensitive center position of the magnetic probe is located on the first cross section. A vertical projection of the magnetic probe on the first cross section is symmetric about the first axis. The magnetic bias structure is provided within the through holes. A magnetization direction of the magnetic bias structure is perpendicular to a sensitive direction of the magnetic probe. The device is small size and has the advantages of high measurement accuracy, and high adaptability.
