Orthogonal fluxgate sensor was fabricated with cylinder-shaped NiZn ferrite core, Cu wire through the core and pickup coil wound on the core, and the bias current effect on the output sensitivity of it was investigated. The output ($$\sim_\sim$$ sensitivity) of the sensor was largely dependent on the operation frequency, and the tendency of sensor output was similar to that of the impedance of pickup coil. The maximum output was obtained by adding the DC bias current of which value was over 50% of the excitation current. The output was saturated when the DC bias current was larger than 50% of the excitation current.

In this study, we have investigated that the operation frequency dependences of the output properties of the orthogonal fluxgate sensor which was fabricated with a ferrite core. An orthogonal fluxgate sensor should be operated in as high as possible frequency to enhance its sensitivity in the case of small sized sensor, because sensitivity of the sensor is proportional to cross section area, winding number and operation frequency. In this study, we investigated the correspondence of the frequency dependence of output and the reactance (inductance and capacitance) of pickup coil and cable. Experimental results represented that we could obtain maximum output (= sensitivity) at optimal frequency which is near LC resonance frequency of the pickup coil and cable.
