The title says it all – this article describes a microcontroller-compatible current sensor module you can build yourself, using an inexpensive 8-pin chip as an ‘active shunt’ for measuring ac/dc ...

There are many cases where a power supply needs an internal current-limiter function, usually built using a current sensor, a control circuit, and a pass transistor. The current sensor itself can be a ...

To complement the 2-wire and 3-wire sensor transmitter blogs that Kevin Duke and I have already published on Precision Hub, my next few blog topics will be on 4-wire sensor transmitters. The blogs ...

The first step can often be the most important in any design activity. It certainly is true when engineers work to integrate sensors into their product development process. Here, the first step is the ...

The battery packs in electric vehicles (EVs) are only as safe and effective as the battery-management system (BMS) watching over it. The BMS plays a pivotal role in the EV, monitoring the voltages in ...
