High voltage 1100 V current sense on the high side
I have the circuit that you see below.
My load is a photomultiplier tube equivalent to a 3.63Mohm resistor.
My power supply can deliver max 4W (2kV and 2mA). I use it on 1100V and the load draws ~...

Removing the effects of Parasitic Inductance in current sense resistor – Low side current sensing
We are evaluating MIC21LV32 from microchip in one of our applications.
For the current sensing we have used 3 mΩ sense resistor (1206, 1 %, 1 W), as these sense resistors have higher ESL+ parasitic ...

Using a switching DC-DC converter in high dynamic range current/voltage sensing
I'm thinking of making a power meter circuit which will have a high-side current-sensing amp (LTC6102), a resistive voltage divider for sensing the voltage, a dual op-amp (OPA2365) as a buffer for the ...

Current sensing application
The purpose of the application is to maintain a constant current at the load, even if the resistance changes.
I understand that the ADC is reporting the voltage and current values at the load to the ...

Designing a current sensing op-amp circuit for an AC load
I'm trying to simulate a current sensing op-amp circuit. My AC voltage, 24 VAC, is across a load of 10 Ω. I used a 100 μΩ resistor and measured the voltage across it using an op-amp.
Looking at some ...
