Sourcing or sinking high current through a resistive path is going to generate heat; dissipating that heat is a fairly common challenge engineers encounter. With internal shunt products like the INA250 and INA260 , wherein a physical shunt resistor is…
Hello,
I would recommend looking at the INA250. It is a similar part in that the current shunt is integrated.
I would also recommend looking at the reference design below for how this part can be configured in parallel to support higher current…
Hello Nikos,
1. The datasheet was written over 40 years ago...I don't know if it was actually built...the original authors are long gone. But it is a common circuit.
2. Assumptions were probably a large current .The LM324 is not considered a "precision…
