di/dt CURRENT SENSOR AND DIGITAL

INTEGRATOR

The di/dt sensor detects changes in the magnetic field caused by

the ac current. Figure 42 shows the principle of a di/dt current

sensor.

MAGNETIC FIELD CREATED BY CURRENT

(DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL TO CURRENT)

+ EMF (ELECTROMOTIVE FORCE)

– INDUCED BY CHANGES IN

MAGNETIC FLUX DENSITY (di/dt)

Figure 42. Principle of a di/dt Current Sensor

The flux density of a magnetic field induced by a current is

directly proportional to the magnitude of the current. The

changes in the magnetic flux density passing through a conductor

loop generate an electromotive force (EMF) between the two

ends of the loop. The EMF is a voltage signal that is proportional

to the di/dt of the current. The voltage output from the di/dt

current sensor is determined by the mutual inductance between

the current carrying conductor and the di/dt sensor.

The current signal needs to be recovered from the di/dt signal

before it can be used. An integrator is therefore necessary to

restore the signal to its original form. The ADE7758 has a built-

in digital integrator to recover the current signal from the di/dt

sensor. The digital integrator on Channel 1 is switched on by

default when the ADE7758 is powered up. Setting the MSB of

the GAIN[7:0] register turns on the integrator. Figure 43 to

Figure 46 show the magnitude and phase response of the digital

integrator.
