Questions about TIPD205(TI Design) applying DRV425

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV425, TIPD205

Dear, Sir.

My customer is considering to measure DC+/- 400 ~ 600A.
It looks possible to refer TIPD205 appying DRV425.

Could you please tech us several things because we are not familiar with the product.

1. DRV425 Fluxgate.
 a) I have a chance to see the principle of Fluxgatre, before.
   It was configured with Excitation, Sensing, Compensation coils & 2 magnetic core
   (Non-Inveting, Inverting).
   I wonder DRV425 is integrated the Exciation portion inside the ic?

2. TIPD205.
 It is mounted 2 pcs of DRV425 to measure the absolute position, and show as Voffset.
 b) I wonder the influence of geomagnetic & adjacent fiild will be observed on Voffset?
 c) I wonder DRV425 is just measured above, So won(t do automatic correction, it will be
     implemented by external MCU to capture the signal through ADC?
 d) Is it possible to realize +/- 100A DC current sense using just 1 DRV425?
     If yes, Please let us know the bottle-neck to realize that(for instance, accuracy got
     worse than the case of 2 pcs DRV425 because the current unbalance on rght/left side
     of hole could not be involved, etc)

Best Regards,
H. Sakai
