May 26, 2005[Ideas For Design] Measure Current On Positive-Grounded Systems
In telecom power systems, the positive rail is usually grounded. This forces designers to place a shunt resistor on the system's negative rail to measure current. Yet there are other ways to sense the system's current. Some methods even use a transducer, like Hall-effect or magnetic inductance current transducers, instead of a shunt resistor. These transducers are made for only certain current values (50, 100, or even 200 A). Although effective, such solutions are more...
