    摘要: A clamp-type AC voltage probe includes: a clamp portion that clamps a cable to be measured; an electrode disposed to be opposed to the cable clamped by the clamp portion; a parallel circuit in which a capacitor and a resistance are connected in parallel, and one end of which is connected to the electrode; a resistance one end of which is connected to the other end of the parallel circuit and the other end of which is connected to a circuit ground; a capacitor one end of which is connected to the other end of the parallel circuit and the other end of which is connected to the circuit ground; and an amplifier an input terminal of which is connected to the one end or the other end of the parallel circuit, and that amplifies and outputs a signal input into the input terminal.

    摘要: A capacitance detection device detecting a capacitance between a detection electrode and a detection target close to the detection electrode has: a first voltage output circuit that outputs a first alternating current voltage to be supplied to a shield electrode placed close to the detection electrode; a second voltage output circuit that outputs a second alternating current voltage with substantially the same frequency as the first alternating current voltage; and an operational amplifier that amplifies the difference in voltage between an inverting input terminal connected to the detection electrode and a non-inverting input terminal to which the second alternating current voltage is applied, and outputs the amplified difference in voltage. With the detection target close to the detection electrode, the second voltage output circuit outputs the second alternating current voltage adjusted so that an output voltage from the operational amplifier has a smaller amplitude than the first alternating current voltage.

    摘要: In an embodiment, a circuit includes a first branch coupled between a first node and a second node, the first branch including a first ceramic capacitor, the first ceramic capacitor including terminals configured to receive a first voltage applied therebetween. The circuit further includes a second branch coupled between the first node and a third node, the second branch including a second ceramic capacitor that is substantially identical to the first ceramic capacitor, the second ceramic capacitor including terminals configured to receive a second voltage applied therebetween. The circuit further includes a control circuit configured to modify the second voltage until a first current passing through the second node is substantially equal to a second current passing through the third node.

    摘要: A capacitive voltage sensor assembly includes a first electrode extending along a longitudinal axis, a tubular section surrounding a portion of the first electrode and positioned radially outward from the longitudinal axis and the first electrode, the tubular section including an insulating layer, an inner conductive layer, and an outer conductive layer, and a mass of dielectric insulating material at least partially enclosing the first electrode and the tubular section. The mass of dielectric insulating material fills through openings formed in the tubular section.

    摘要: An open-loop fluxgate-type current sensor is described. The current sensor includes a single winding around a core that combines drive and sense that is used as both an excitation source and a feedback element to measure current through a primary winding. The current sensor further includes an H-bridge driver to impress voltage to the single winding to cause current to saturate the core, the volage being impressed with opposing polarities repeatedly causing the core to saturate at opposing polarities. The current sensor further includes an analog transconductance integrator that continuously integrates the current to infer magnetizing force being driven into the core at the opposing polarities. The current sensor further includes a microcontroller unit (MCU) that calculates residual current based on the inferred magnetizing force being driven into the core at the opposing polarities and cause remedial action to be taken when the calculated residual current exceeds a threshold.

    摘要: A capacitive voltage sensor includes an electrode extending along a longitudinal axis, a tubular portion including a layer of electrically insulating material, a layer of electrically conductive material positioned radially inward of the layer of electrically insulating material in a direction toward the longitudinal axis, and an outer shield configured as a latticelike network and positioned radially outward of the layer of electrically insulating material in a direction away from the longitudinal axis. The layer of electrically conductive material, the layer of electrically insulating material, and the outer shield each surround and is spaced in a direction radially outward from the longitudinal axis and from a portion of the electrode. A mass of dielectric insulating material at least partially encapsulating the electrode and the tubular portion and fills through holes formed in the latticelike network of the outer shield.
