When tasked with a current sensing requirement, designers typically look first to using dedicated resistors designed for this task. Occasionally though there is the temptation to consider sensing ...

Riedon has expanded its portfolio of precision current shunts and is now able to provide one of the industry’s broadest ranges of current ratings. Additions have been made to the company’s RCS, RSH, ...

The circuit in Figure 1 is a high-power analog of the popular TL431 programmable shunt regulator. This two-terminal circuit is convenient when the drain of the P-channel FET is grounded, since it ...

The world has turned to renewable energy in an attempt to wean itself from depleting carbon-based sources. The increase in the number of solar, wind, wave, and tidal power sources has pushed the need ...

AMS’s latest reference design board measures current to an accuracy of ±1% by monitoring the voltage drop across a copper track on a printed-circuit board (PCB). The new technique uses AMS’s AS8510 ...

Our 1ED44173/5/6 are the new low side gate driver ICs that integrate over-current protection (OCP), FAULT status output and enable function. This high integration level is excellent for the digitally ...

A common complaint around modern passenger vehicles is that they are over-reliant on electronics, from overly complex infotainment systems to engines that can’t be fixed on one’s own due to the ...
