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 ...

I got a couple of INA 219 modules from an online seller overseas. I was looking for a different dc current sensor module to start a small battery charger project, so I welcomed them. The INA219 based ...

If you want to measure AC or DC current with an oscilloscope, a current clamp is a great way to do it. The clamp surrounds the wire, so you don’t need to break the connection to take your measurements ...

There’s many different ways of measuring current. If it’s DC, the easiest way is to use a shunt resistor and measure the voltage across it, and for AC you could use a current transformer. But the ...

Fluxgate current sensors have emerged as a robust technology for the measurement of both alternating and direct currents, harnessing the non-linear magnetic characteristics of ferromagnetic materials.

With distance and speed of charging vital in the competitive EV sector high-power integrated traction inverters – which convert DC into AC and capture energy for the vehicle – need to combine ...

Asahi Kasei Microdevices (AKM) and Silicon Austria Labs GmbH (SAL) have completed a joint proof of concept for integrating a current sensor into a power module to be used in automotive applications ...

The partnership combines the best-in-class current sensor ICs from Infineon with Swoboda's expertise in the development and industrialization of sensor modules to address the fast-growing market of ...

The MarketWatch News Department was not involved in the creation of this content. New technologies designed to support solar, storage, and smart infrastructure will debut at North America's largest ...

More efficient, smaller, and lighter traction inverters for EVs can be created by integrating current sensors directly into SiC-based power modules. Silicon Austria Labs (SAL), a power semiconductor ...

AC and DC Current: AC (Alternating Current) and DC (Direct Current) are the two fundamental forms of electrical current, differing in how electricity flows through a circuit. Understanding this ...
