The current sensor is used in industrial devices and power utilities. Core materials of these current sensors are divided into mainly two groups as silicon steel and fermalloy. Silicon steel has a wide saturation bandwidth but low sensitivity during low-current, whereas permalloy has a short saturation bandwidth but high sensitivity during low-current. In this paper, laminated silicon steel and permalloy by equal ratio is proposed to improve the linearity and saturation of current sensor. It is proved that the proposed core material has larger bandwidth than fermalloy as well as higher sensitivity than silicon steel. When comparing simulation results by FLUX 3D, the proposed method has also better performance than the previous core materials.
