Accurate measurements of surface currents are crucial for coastal monitoring, rip current detection, and predicting the path ...

When measuring electrical current, the goal is to insert an ammeter in series with the circuit so that the current measured by the ammeter is identical to the current flowing through the circuit. In ...

Inrush current effect is common in electric motors. Sometimes, in case of ill-designed electrical wiring systems, switching on the motor may activate the fuse. It is caused by the inrush current – ...

What do a Rogowski coil, a magnetic core, and a hall effect sensor have in common? They are all ways you can make oscilloscope probes that measure current. If you think of a scope as a voltage ...

Makers, developers, and hobbyists looking for a way to measure both voltage and current simultaneously may be interested in a new Arduino project published on the official Arduino blog. This project ...

Over on YouTube [Kiss Analog] reviews the New Zoyi ZT-QB9 Smart Clamp meter. If you’re putting together an electronics lab ...

Designers often use a current shunt to measure low current being sourced out of their power supply since many of today’s power supplies do not offer adequate accuracy from their built-in measurement ...

Today's SoCs (system on chip) have many modes of operation. Subsystems are shut down when not in use. When the entire SoC is in a “sleep” mode, many subsystems may be shut down or run on minimal power ...
