Sensing current, especially in higher-voltage settings, is often a challenge. It’s generally more difficult than voltage sensing, as it is usually “invasive” and requires “breaking” into the ...

The best place to measure current consumption is in the main power feed. The technique is called high-side current sensing. However, measurements at that location are fraught with problems. Of primary ...
