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 ...

As the primary switching device used in a broad range of power conversion applications, MOSFETs play a central role in power supply design. Defining their performance characteristics is crucial to ...

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.

With a primary-current rating of 10A and an isolation voltage of 500 Vdc, the 5600 series current-sensing transformers are capable of both measuring and monitoring ac currents. They are available in ...
