The better the analog front-end for measuring battery current, the more accurately you'll be able to gauge the remaining run-time for your battery-backup system. Here's a discrete front-end design ...

Today, practically every control and monitoring circuit uses shunt-based current measurements as an alternative to sensors. To make these measurements accurately, it is useful to understand how shunts ...

The new current measuring transducers from the ECM UC product family from Phoenix Contact save users plenty of time with the intuitive device configuration via web-based management. The products ...

What is the bandwidth of the current measurement circuit? What is the DC gain of the circuit? How can we alter this circuit and double the bandwidth with out changing the gain? The 0.4pF capacitance ...

Measuring current is always a nuisance because you have to break the circuit to put the measuring device in series with the circuit. That problem never goes away. Still, any high-end digital ...

Measurement triangle: this quantum metrology triangle shows the relations between the three electrical units volt, ohm and ampere and the involved fundamental constants. Researchers at PTB are ...

What Kind of an Electrical Device is a Current Transducer? A transducer indicates an electrical instrument or device that has the capability and ability to transform and alter a form of energy into ...

The Melexis IMC-Hall extra high-field current sensor is capable of measuring current beyond 2000 A for emerging automotive applications. Melexis has extended the accuracy of its IMC-Hall technology ...

When measuring current with a shunt resistor, what side of the load do you put it on? If you're amplfying the voltage drop across the sense resistor and digitizing that voltage, it makes a difference.
