Abstract

An electrical current sensor device includes a first printed circuit board assembly, a second printed circuit board assembly positioned opposite to the first printed circuit board assembly, and a holder holding the first and second printed circuit board assemblies and providing a passage to allow an electrical conductor to pass through. The first printed circuit board assembly includes a first sensing circuit having a first element pair that includes two magnetoresistive elements with a first pinning direction, the second printed circuit board assembly comprises a second sensing circuit with a second element pair that includes having two magnetoresistive elements with a second pinning direction that is opposite to the first pinning direction, and the first and second pinning directions are perpendicular to a current direction of a current passing through the electrical conductor, the first sensing circuit electrically connects with the second sensing circuit to form a Wheatstone bridge circuit.
