The coil is placed round the conductor and can be shaped in arbitrary form provided
only that the ends of the coil are brought together. As showed below its output voltage
is independent on the magnetic flux way caused by a measured current.

Cancellation of external interferences
The response of the copper shielded coil contains a large high frequency oscillations
due to the screen and coil acting together as a coaxial transmission line. This oscillation
component can be removed by terminating both ends in the characteristic impedance ZT.

Integrator with input current compensation
In order to bias forward the diode R1 in parallel with R2 are relatively small. If the
diode current is selected correctly both diode and op-amp input transistors temperature
sensitivities cancel out. The resistor RB is large, so the op-amp is biased and no input
current flows through the integration resistor R.
Much longer integration times can be achieved with this circuit, but when the input
signal does not center around VCC/2, the compensation is poor.
Non-inverting integrator with inverting buffer
As known double inversion is positive. The same lossless integrator can be obtained
by addition of inverting buffer with absolute gain slightly more than one. This easiest
way to get true non-inverting performance costs just one more op-amp.

Inverting integrator with resistive reset
In this circuit the low frequency attenuation is sacrificed for the reset circuit. There
is continuous discharging of the integrating capacitor. A breakpoint plots flat until the
breakpoint where it breaks down at –6 dB per octave. It is –3 dB when f = 1/2πRC.

Inverting integrator with electronic reset
The source of the FET is at the inverting lead that is at ground, so the Q1 gate
source bias is not affected by the input signal. Sometimes, the output signal can get
large enough to cause leakage currents in Q1, so the designer must take care to bias
Q1 correctly.

Considerations for given task solution
It is obvious that after differentiation of the current rise an rectangular pulse of the
coil voltage is obtained, its width is the same rise time.

As known the cable RG-59 is more thick than RG-58. The diameter of the

Choosing of specific integrator capacitor
Main features:
Among host models of high voltage resistors one of the most suitable is MG7 series
produced by Caddock Electronics, Inc. Because short duration of the current pulse due
resistor power is low comparing with DC 3 kV×2.98 mA case. The chosen parameters
given in the table. If total accuracy 2%, capacitor tolerance 1% then precision of each
1M and 510k resistor is better 0.5%.
Main features:
The Rogowski coil due to the given task was designed and assembled. It was concluded
that the inner dielectric of two popular cables RG-58 and RG-59 is suitable as core for the
coil. The maximal output voltage of the coil was chosen approximately 3 kV. With this
fact the number of the coil turns in RG-58 case is 88 and 56 for RG-59. Because first cable
was more available for author it was used for the coil building. The passive integration
method with RC circuit was chosen. The precision rated correctly components therefore
were found. In both cases the maximal output voltage of the integrator was close to 30 mV.
If an external interference
or percussive excitation take
place in practice opposite or
bifilar winding of the coil is
recommended respectively
(see figure on the left).
