| Abstract |
This paper proposes a shield shape design for minimizing the integrated magnetic concentrator (IMC) hall current sensor shield. Inside flux density and outside magnetic field error rate aren’t satisfied with performance by reducing an initial U-shaped IMC hall current sensor shield’s width and height for an IMC hall current sensor minimization. In order to solve the problem, first, inside flux density is decreased by adding air gap in the shield. Second, outside magnetic field error rate is decreased by adding top shield. Finally, suitable shield shape for minimization is designed by adding top middle shield. The minimization design work is reduced the number of experiments by using the orthogonal array table and main effect analysis method, which are one of the methods of the experimental design method. The proposed model satisfied the design considerations, and the shield area is reduced by 83.7% from the initial model, proving that it was a suitable shield shape for minimization. |
