Malvern, Pa. — Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. touts its high-temperature 1-watt (W) surface-mount Power Metal Strip resistor is the industry's first current sensing resistor in the 2512 case size to ...

Measuring dynamic current flow has always been an important parameter for managing system performance, and doing so has become even more so with the proliferation of smarter management functions for ...

The CSR 3 reverse-geometry current-sense chip resistor offers values down to 0.003 Ω. Housed in a 1225-case-size package, Tolerances are 1% and 5%, typical inductance is less than 0.2 nH, and TCR is ...

Vishay has created a 5W 1206 current sense resistor range. Called WSLF1206, it is available in values down to 300μΩ. Only the 300μΩ and 500μΩ versions are rated at 5W, and that is only up to 70°C ...

When measuring current with a shunt resistor, what side of the load do you put it on? If you're amplfying the voltage drop across the sense resistor and digitizing that voltage, it makes a difference.
