Abstract
A Hall effect current sensor system for use in, for example, a relay. The system also includes a core having a central opening for receiving the conductor therethrough. The core further includes a gap sized to receive a Hall generator. The Hall generator and the core are mounted to a first printed circuit board. This circuit board also has an opening to receive the conductor therethrough. The first printed circuit board is electrically and mechanically connected to a second printed circuit board by a board-in-board connection.
