Precision Current Sensing & Resistance

Current measurement as a control input

Current sensing can influence protection, control, monitoring and energy-management decisions. MarlinTek's approved portfolio includes precision alloy shunt resistors, low-resistance current-sensing technologies and modular measurement systems.

Key engineering considerations

Selection can involve resistance value, temperature coefficient, continuous power rating, transient loading, thermal environment, mechanical construction and long-term stability.

Applications

• EV charging infrastructure
• Battery management systems
• Motor drives
• Precision power measurement
• Industrial and power-electronic monitoring

Related technologies

Current sensing often works alongside power semiconductors, capacitors, magnetic components and reliability analysis. See the Isabellenhütte page and Applications.
