description

This work presents an industrial application of a new spin-valve current sensor based on the giant magnetoresistance effect (GMR) and provides a comparison between this sensor and the typical sensor used in these applications, the hall sensor. Experimental results derived from the application of this two sensors in a power application (a bi-directional three-phase rectifier) are shown.
