Issue with influence between channels in a dual-channel high-side current sensing circuit

I've designed a two-channel current sensing circuit integrated into a board that outputs two separate signals. However, I'm encountering an issue where one channel seems to influence the other, which, ...

Current sensing resistor placement [closed]

I will be adding a current sensing resistor to a Buck-boost DC-DC converter. Based on the IC datasheet, the resistor is placed at the low-voltage side next to the power inductor. But, as far as I know,...

Low side current sensing grounding question

I recently made a low side current sense circuit to test a power supply. It works well, but I am trying to understand the strange behavior that happens when I apply the negative lead of my probe to ...

Microamp-milliamp Measuring Circuit: will my circuit work? Feedback/Advice

I'm developing a device which must be able to measure milliamps and microamps on one of its lines (down to 1 microamp, but also clearly seeing if it's less than 1uA). It's going to be DC of different ...

Current sense op-amp with integrated shunt vs expensive resistor

To simplify my question lets assume: I need to convert +/-7.07A RMS AC current into +/-707mV RMS voltage with high acurracy (0.1% or better). It may be also higher voltage, up to +/-2.5Vpk. For now ...

Current sense trace vias underneath shunt resistor

I need to connect current sense traces from a shunt resistor to my PMIC on the other side of the board. Due to space constraints, I'd like the traces to pass through vias directly underneath the shunt ...

Four-terminal resistor pinout?

Anyone can tell me (or preferably, point me to a source that explicitly shows) the pinout of the 4-pin current-sense resistors? I'm seeing the datasheets for three different models (including Rideon'...

What are shunts, as related to their use in current sensing in microcontrollers?

Within the manual for the I/O module I'm using (a Loytec LIOB-153) there are wiring diagrams to aid in wiring up your sensors and other inputs/outputs. There are two wiring diagrams for the purpose of ...
