It’s not easy being a current-sense resistor: so much is expected of this basic function of determining current flow by simple measurement of voltage across a known resistance, then applying Ohm’s Law ...

Although there are several ways to sense current flowing from a source such as a battery, or to a load such as a motor, the current-sense resistor is among the most widely used approaches. There are ...

VPG Foil Resistors rolled out a current sense resistor for the medical, energy, military and aerospace markets. The high-precision, surface-mount, four-terminal CSM3637F current sense resistor is an ...

The power transistor must be chosen to provide fast response while also withstanding high power dissipation. Several electrical and thermal characteristics must be considered: 1. An array of N current ...

If you’ve got the hankering to own a lab full of high-end gear but your budget is groaning in protest, rolling your own test equipment can be a great option. Not everything the complete shop needs is ...

The Toshiba TC78H670FTG two-phase, bipolar, stepper-motor driver removes the need for any external current-sense resistor by incorporating on-chip current detection. It’s often desirable or even ...
