Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of current sensors, and in particular to a magnetoresistive current sensor that eliminates inductive coupling by wire bonding.
Background Art
[0002] Current sensors for measuring the magnitude of current are widely used in various electronic devices. In an existing current sensor, a U-shaped conductor is integrated inside, and two magnetoresistive sensors are placed around the conductor. The current to be measured flows through the U-shaped conductor integrated inside the sensor, and the two magnetoresistive sensors perform differential measurement on the magnetic field generated by the current in the conductor, so as to achieve the purpose of detecting (or measuring) the current to be measured.
[0003] However, for current sensors, high-frequency current will generate an induced voltage in a closed loop, thereby affecting the detection accuracy of the current. In order to reduce inductive coupling, usually the method of reducing the distance between the magnetic sensor chip and the signal processing chip to reduce the wire bonding enclosed area is adopted, but inductive coupling cannot be fundamentally eliminated.

The magnetic sensor chip and the signal processing chip are arranged at intervals on the same side of the conductor. The conductor is used to provide a flowing channel for the current to be measured, so that the current to be measured can flow through the conductor. The magnetic sensor chip includes a first signal positive terminal Vp11 and a first signal negative terminal Vn11, and the first signal positive terminal Vp11 and the first signal negative terminal Vn11 are symmetric about the center line of the conductor. The signal processing chip includes a second signal positive terminal Vp12 and a second signal negative terminal Vn12, and the second signal positive terminal Vp12 and the second signal negative terminal Vn12 are symmetric about the center line of the conductor. A fourth bonding wire 204c connecting the first signal positive terminal Vp11 and the second signal positive terminal Vp12. A fifth bonding wire 204d connecting the first signal negative terminal Vn11 and the second signal negative terminal Vn12. The lower half region enclosed by the first signal positive terminal Vp11, the first signal negative terminal Vn11, the fourth bonding wire 204c, and the fifth bonding wire 204d is called the third region; the upper half region enclosed by the second signal positive terminal Vp12, the second signal negative terminal Vn12, the fourth bonding wire 204c, and the fifth bonding wire 204d is called the fourth region; the areas of the third region and the fourth region are equal and the directions are opposite. The current to be measured flowing through the conductor generates a third magnetic field in the third region; the current to be measured flowing through the conductor generates a fourth magnetic field in the fourth region; wherein, the magnitudes of the third magnetic field and the fourth magnetic field are equal and the directions are the same. The fact that the third region and the fourth region have opposite directions means that the third region and the fourth region are symmetric about an axis of symmetry, and the axis of symmetry is perpendicular to the center line of the conductor.

The current sensor according to claim 4, wherein The first signal positive terminal Vp11 and the second signal negative terminal Vn12 are located on one side of the center line of the conductor 201. The second signal positive terminal Vp12 and the first signal negative terminal Vn11 are located on the other side of the center line of the conductor 201.
6. The current sensor according to claim 5, wherein The conductor is a U-shaped conductor, and the U-shaped conductor includes a first leg, a second leg, and a connecting portion connecting the first leg and the second leg. Among them, the current directions on the first leg and the second leg are opposite. The first leg and the second leg are respectively located on both sides of the center line of the conductor. The magnetic sensor chip is disposed opposite to the first leg and the second leg.
