We developed a high-sensitivity magnetoimpedance magnetic field sensor using a FeCoSiB amorphous wire and a coil wound around it. The amorphous wire had the diameter of 0.1 mm and the length of 5 mm. The magnetic field resolution of about 20 pT/√Hz was achieved. But the dynamic range of the magnetoimpedance magnetic field sensor was only about ±0.7 Gauss, which was not enough for some applications, such as the defect evaluation of steel plate. The linearity of the system was also not good when big magnetic field was applied, which will cause some noise when the system is used in unshielded environment. We developed a feedback method to improve the dynamic range and the linearity of the magnetic field sensor. The operation point of the magnetic field sensor was fixed by sending a feedback current to the coil. Using the feedback method, the dynamic range was improved from ±0.7 Gauss to ±10 Gauss and the linearity was also improved over 100 times better. An eddy current testing system using the magnetic sensor was developed, and the crack defects in steel plate and in 3D-printed titanium alloy plate were evaluated.

We proposed ten requisite conditions for successful development of wearable I-o-T smart magnetic sensors considering recent development of some successful micromagnetic sensors. We reported application topics using the amorphous wire CMOS IC magnetoimpedance micromagnetic sensor (MI sensor) on the geomagnetic field sensor for the electronic compass installed in the smartphones, the pitching ball self-spin analyzer installed in the professional baseball, self-driving magnetic guidance system, and the biomagnetic field sensing. Performances of the MI sensor overcoming the ten requisite conditions are discussed as a smart micromagnetic sensor on the basis of the magnetoimpedance effect in the amorphous wire.

ABSTRACTA novel magnetic field sensor, based on the giant magneto-impedance effect is described and analysed. The sensor utilises an amorphous wire, annealed under optimised conditions. The conditions required for the optimisation of the magnetic properties of the wire are shown. The wire can be up to 2m long, and integrates the field over the length of the wire. It operates in open-loop mode. With a bias field of ∼500 A/m it achieves a sensitivity of 0.02 A/m and linearity of better than 5% for external fields between ±300 A/m.

Operation on the principle of the giant magnetoimpedace (GMI) magnetic field sensor was designed and tested for the case of CoFeSiB amorphous wire of 6 mm length. We considered magnetic field displacement of the order of 10 Oe. Piece of amorphous wire was placed as a central conductor of a coaxial cable. The maximum slope of the sensor GMI characteristic was observed at the terminator resistance RT = 50 Ohm, while the maximum of the GMI ratio variation was observed in the not “matched” (RT = 75 Ohm) but closer to the “short” mode. Amorphous wire placed as a central conductor of a coaxial cable serves as a sensitive element with high sensitivity with respect to applied field making possible to use a simple design with a miniature coil for magnetic field biasing.
