AUTOMOTIVE CURRENT TRANSDUCER OPEN LOOP TECHNOLOGY
DHAB S/133

Introduction

Automotive applications

The DHAB family is best suited for DC, AC, or pulsed currents
measurement in high power and low voltage automotiveapplications. It features galvanic separation between theprimary circuit (high power) and the secondary circuit (electroniccircuit).
The DHAB family gives you a choice of having different
current measuring ranges in the same housing (from ±20 up to±900 A).

Principle of DHAB Family
The open loop transducers uses a Hall effect integrated circuit.
The magnetic flux density B, contributing to the rise of the Hall
voltage, is generated by the primary current IP to be measured.
The current to be measured IP is supplied by a current source
i.e. battery or generator (Figure 1).
Within the linear region of the hysteresis cycle, B is proportionalto:
B (IP) = a × IP

The Hall voltage is thus expressed by:
UHall = (cHall / d) × IHall × a × IP
Except for IP, all terms of this equation are constant.
Therefore:
UHall = b × IPaconstantbconstantcHallHall coefficient

The measurement signal UHall is amplified to supply the user

Definition of typical, minimum and maximum values:
Minimum and maximum values for specified limiting and safety
conditions have to be understood as such as values shown in“typical” graphs. On the other hand, measured values are partof a statistical distribution that can be specified by an intervalwith upper and lower limits and a probability for measured
values to lie within this interval. Unless otherwise stated(e.g. “100 % tested”), the LEM definition for such intervals
designated with “min” and “max” is that the probability forvalues of samples to lie in this interval is 99.73 %. For a normal(Gaussian) distribution, this corresponds to an interval between−3 sigma and +3 sigma. If “typical” values are not obviouslymean or average values, those values are defined to delimit
intervals with a probability of 68.27 %, corresponding to aninterval between −sigma and +sigma for a normal distribution.
Typical, minimum and maximum values are determined during
the initial characterization of a product.

Output noise voltage:t [µs]

Sensitivity:
The transducer’s sensitivity S is the slope of the straight line
Uout = f (IP), it must establish the relation:
Uout (IP) = UC/5 (S × IP + UO)

Offset with temperature:
The error of the offset in the operating temperature is thevariation of the offset in the temperature considered with theinitial offset at 25 °C.
The offset variation IO T is a maximum variation the offset in thetemperature range:
IO T = IO E max − IO E min

The output voltage noise is the result of the noise floor of theHall elements and the linear amplifier.

The offset drift TCIO E AV is the IO T value divided by thetemperature range.

Magnetic offset:

Sensitivity with temperature:

The magnetic offset is the consequence of an any current on
the primary side. It’s defined after a stated excursion of primarycurrent.

Linearity:
The maximum positive or negative discrepancy with a reference
straight line Uout = f (IP).
Unit: linearity (%) expressed with full scale of IP N.
Uout

The error of the sensitivity in the operating temperature is therelative variation of sensitivity with the temperature consideredwith the initial offset at 25 °C.
The average temperature coefficient of sensitivity TCSAV, ST is
the maximum temperature variation of S (in ppm or %) of thesensitivity in the temperature range:
ST = (Sensitivity max − Sensitivity min) / Sensitivity at 25 °C.
The average temperature coefficient of sensitivity TCSAV is theST value divided by the temperature range.

offices (www.lem.com).

The offset voltage is the output voltage when the primary current
is zero. The ideal value of UO is UC/2. So, the difference of
UO − UC/2 is called the total offset voltage error. This offset error
can be attributed to the electrical offset (due to the resolution ofthe ASIC quiescent voltage trimming), the magnetic offset, thethermal drift and the thermal hysteresis. Deeper and detailed
info available is our LEM technical sales offices (www.lem.
