Ammeter

Abstract

This ammeter comprises an element made of magnetoresistive material in a thin layer located on a first face of a substrate; first connection means connected to the magnetoresistive element in two zones along a first direction (XX') and enabling the element to be supplied with current; second connection means connected to the magnetoresistive element in two zones located along a second direction (YY') perpendicular to the first direction (XX'). This ammeter enables the measurement of the value of the current flowing in a conductor preferably oriented in a direction (ZZ') parallel to the first direction (XX').
