CurSns3 – High-Side Current Shunt Test. Blog Index. This section, CurSns3, will test a High-Side Current Shunt to demonstrate: High common mode voltage Big (massive) error using 2-wire connection Why you should use 4-wire connection whenever possible The advantages of isolation amplifiers...
Blog Index. This section, CurSns2, will cover Current Sense Resistors (RSense) in different circuit configurations: Low-Side High-Side 2-Wire 4-Wire A current sensor is used to convert current to an easily measured voltage that is proportional to current. There are a wide variety of sensors...
CurSns1. Current Sensor Introduction. Blog Index. Voltage and current sensing are fundamental to electrical and electronic circuits. Pretty much all analogue parametric sensors have a voltage output that is going to be compatible with the input of some measuring device, for example an ADC or...
