Classification: CPC H  G | IPC G  H

Claim 0:
1. A method of manufacturing a current sensor package, the method comprising:
providing a current path;
providing a sensing device, in particular a sensor chip, the sensing device being configured for sensing a magnetic field generated by a current flowing through the current path and comprising a sensor element;
positioning the sensing device spaced from the current path;
electrically connecting the sensing device to a conductive trace;
providing an encapsulant extending continuously between the current path and the sensing device;
the encapsulant extending continuously between the current path and the conductive trace;
providing a support element for the conductive trace before providing the encapsulant;
removing the support element after providing the encapsulant about the conductive trace and the support element, the removed support element leaving a hole in the encapsulant; and
filling the hole in the encapsulant with an electrically insulating filling material.
