A power semiconductor package includes a substrate having a plurality of metal leads, a power semiconductor die attached to a first one of the leads and a magnetic field sensor integrated in the same power semiconductor package as the power semiconductor die and positioned in close proximity to a current pathway of the power semiconductor die. The magnetic field sensor is operable to generate a signal in response to a magnetic field produced by current flowing in the current pathway, the magnitude of the signal being proportional to the amount of current flowing in the current pathway.
