White Paper: Current Sense Transformer Application Guidelines

The standard for precise current measurement in instrumentation and other high reliability equipment applications has been the current sense transformer. They are accurate, easy to implement, and reliable under harsh environmental and thermal conditions. In electronic systems applications such as switch-mode power supplies, current transformers are generally used for control, circuit-protection and monitoring features. With the increasing availability of off-the-shelf standard current transformers, a simple guideline can greatly help in the selection of proper and cost-effective components for many applications.
