I like to measure a large current (200 A) with small fluctuations (10 mA 10 Hz - 400Hz) in a cable.
For this I have a Fluxgate sensor (LEM ultrastab200) with a conversion ratio of 1/1000 and roughly 1 ppm noise.
Therefore I receive a signal of 200 mA and fluctuations in the 10 µA regime with noise in the 10 nA range.
I am interested in the 10 µA fluctuations. I need to remove/filter the DC offset and amplify the 10 µA signal to at least some hundreds of mV .
All of this I need to do while adding as little noise as possible.
Has Anyone already done something similar or have hints how to accomplish this?
(The Background of this is that I then want to feed the signal into a Feedback controller and with a to stabilize the current in the cable with a transistor.)
Thank you for your help in advance
