Current sensors, also commonly referred to as current transformers or CTs, are devices that measure current running through a wire by using a magnetic field for detection of the current and generate a proportional output. They are used with both AC and DC current. They are used in various applications such as motor driving circuits and inverter circuits. Current sensors are used in various industries such as automotive, consumer electronics, telecommunication.
Rise in adoption of power management system in data centers for improved efficiency & speed with reduced power expenditure fuel the market demand. The current sensors integrated with backup power systems such as inverters and UPS systems enable protection of battery at the stage of charge and offer efficiency, increase their demand in data centers. Moreover, stringent government regulation in relation to the control of data center power consumption is also one of the major factors that influences the current sensor market growth.
Adoption of industrial robots and increase in trend of hybrid vehicles in the automotive industry drive the current sensor market growth. However, technical issues and high costs associated with current sensors across the globe hamper the current sensor market growth. On the contrary, rapid adoption of 5G technology increases demand for closed loop current sensors, which is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the current sensor market.
The global current sensor market is segmented on the basis of type, current sensing technology, end use, and region. On the basis of type, the market is bifurcated into open loop and closed loop. By current sensing technology, the market is classified into hall effect, current transformer, flux gate, and Rogowski coil.
