Würth Elektronik eiSos is a supplier of current sense resistors. These are used to make the current in an application measurable so that the result can be processed in further electronic circuits.
We give an overview about the different possibilities how to measure the current and then we go into detail about the current sense resistors. Here we answer questions like why there are different pad geometries, what the TCR means and where the current sensing resistors are used in an application.
