CTS offers a range of shield designs for planar current sensing in combination with a magnetic field sensor, AMR sensor and a busbar conductor.
Shields are additional components in a current sensor that protects the sensor from external magnetic field sources that disrup operations. Made up of soft ferromagnetic materials to help magnitise flux frequencies that are desired while blocking the frequencies that are not inside the sheild.
Some CTS sheild designs utilize laminated materials. Our lamination designs use stacks of tightly bonded materials like iron, effectively preventing external flux from disrupting current operations.
The U-Shield is a soft ferromagnetic shield featuring superior material characteristics such as high linearity and very low hysteresis. The shield is designed for planar current sensing in combination with a Hall sensor, AMR sensor and a busbar conductor. The U-Shield protects the sensor from parasitic magnetic fields caused by nearby conductors or other magnetic field sources while at the same time it enhances sensitivity and signal-to-offset ratio of the sensor.
The U-Shield is a soft ferromagnetic shield featuring superior material characteristics such as high linearity and very low hysteresis. This design uses iron lamination to support harsher enviroments and making this particular shield more suitable for high-speed applications.
