Motor control circuits in appliances including refrigerators, washing machines and air conditioners, need to operate more efficiently, reliably and safely while meeting cost requirements. With energy ...

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 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 ...

This post is a quick writeup about Winson WCS Series Hall Effect Linear Current Sensors! I have the Winson WCS2702 current sensor in my hand right now, so I will write about it here. According to the ...

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 ...

Recently, [Solder Hub] put together a brief video that demonstrates the basics of a Hall Effect sensor — in this case, one salvaged from an old CPU fan. Two LEDs, a 100 ohm resistor, and a 3.7 volt ...
