Monitoring the current taken by a mains-powered appliance can be a challenge, particularly if the application demands an inexpensive solution that must provide galvanic isolation for user safety.

Measuring AC current (220-V mains RMS current) is not as simple as measuring DC current. In DC current measurement, you can simply hook the oscilloscope probe to the shunt resistor and calculate the ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Bob Zollo, Product Planner, Power and Energy Division, Keysight Technologies Efficient use of energy is a key factor in ...

The input back ripple current is defined in milliamps peak-to-peak (mAp – p), usually at the nominal input voltage and full load. But before it can be filtered, the ripple current must first be ...
