Thanks for the quick response. We had been examining the possibility of using any temperature/current offset relation to mitigate the effects of drift from the two current sensors (Ia, Ib).
The principle issue is that most drives typically employ sensing of two of three motor phases, with the third phase current being inferred from the two measurements. Necessarily, this assumes a balanced 3 phase system, and any offset in the two measured phases propagates through the calculation of Ic. Again, while this is not an issue for many applications, we have requirements for precise torque control, primarily at very low velocities.
As you suggest, we could attach a temp probe to the current sensing device, and we shall try to track down the current sensor module manufacturer to determine any established temperature response.
We also thought that it would be more effective to create an external current sensor module that measures all phases using integrated hall sensors (Allegro MicroSystems, etc), as this would solve almost entirely the problem of sensor offset. Possibly DT would be willing to create (or assist in creation of) such a sensor module?
