Abstract:
A packaged current sensor integrated circuit includes a primary conductor having an input portion and an output portion configured to carry a current to be measured by one or more magnetic sensing elements supported by a semiconductor die adjacent to the primary conductor. A method of fabricating the packaged current sensor integrated circuit includes partially encasing the lead frame in a first mold material, applying an insulator to one or more die attach pads, attaching a die to the insulator, electrically connecting the die to secondary leads, and providing a second mold to the subassembly. The package is configured to provide increased voltage isolation.
