This method has better current sampling accuracy, And it is also relatively simple in terms of software processing and implementation. [0003] However, because the Hall sensor is usually expensive, in the actual industrial implementation, it will greatly increase the cost of the low-voltage electric vehicle driver, and, because the Hall sensor usually has a large volume, it is suitable for those with limited printed board area. It is not a small bottleneck for low-voltage electric vehicle drives with resources. [0004] In addition to...

[0003] However, because the Hall sensor is usually expensive, in the actual industrial implementation, it will greatly increase the cost of the low-voltage electric vehicle driver, and, because the Hall sensor usually has a large volume, it is suitable for those with limited printed board area. resource is not a small bottleneck for low-voltage electric vehicle drives

[0004] In addition to the Hall sensor, for the output current detection of the electric vehicle driver, the three-resistor current detection method, the dual-resistor current sampling method, and the single-resistor current sampling method are also used in the prior art, but the common disadvantages of these methods are : They all need to use precision resistors, also known as shunts, which undoubtedly have a high cost; and are only suitable for applications with relatively small output currents. This is because t
