Vishay has introduced a precision isolation amplifier with 5kVrms isolation test voltage and 150kV/μs typical (100kV/μs min) common-mode transient immunity: VIA0050DD. “Isolation amplifiers in the VIA ...
High-side current sensing detects downstream shorts and avoids many sources of electrical noise and EMI. For over a century the standard method of measuring amperage has used a current-shunt ammeter ...
Sensing current by measuring voltage across a resistor is simple and elegant, but issues arise with the electrical interface, sizing and selection, and thermal/mechanical considerations. Measuring ...
