Recently, I’ve been working on a solar off-grid monitoring system. In the system are a few split-core Hall effect sensors to monitor DC current in the solar panel current, the battery charge current, ...

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.

Which is the best current sensor for your power measuring application? Solid-core current sensing technology provides good performance at low cost. But split-core sensors are making strong progress ...

Current sensing is on a trajectory to intersect with the global high-voltage trend of robust, high-performing systems. Discover the tradeoffs between isolated shunt-based, closed-loop Hall-effect, and ...

Current sensing technologies and magnetic sensors have evolved remarkably to address the demand for accurate, real‐time monitoring in power distribution networks and industrial applications.

The technique is called high-side current sensing. However, measurements at that location are fraught with problems. Of primary concern is that the measurement is at main line voltage, a problem if ...

THERE is no better way to ruin a perfectly good day than to make a mistake in the use of your air monitoring instrumentation. Industrial hygienists; military, industrial and public-sector hazmat teams ...

Traditionally, resistance-temperature-detector (RTD) sensor resistance is measured by applying a precision current source and measuring the developed voltage. This approach usually requires a ...

Allegro MicroSystems had introduced 1MHz bandwidth current sensors that can measure hundreds of amps – the first fruit of its acquisition of Crocus Technologies. The technology is tunneling ...
