Abstract

See full text

Embodiments relate to current sensors and methods. In an embodiment, a current sensor comprises a leadframe; a semiconductor die coupled to the leadframe; a conductor comprising a metal layer on the semiconductor die, the conductor comprising at least one bridge portion and at least two slots, a first slot having a first tip and a second slot having a second tip, a distance between the first and second tips defining a width of one of the at least one bridge portion, wherein the conductor is separated from the leadframe by at least a thickness of the semiconductor die, and the thickness is about 0.2 millimeters (mm) to about 0.7 mm; and at least one magnetic sensor element arranged on the die relative to and spaced apart from the one of the at least one bridge portion and more proximate the conductor than the leadframe.
