This is the underlying principle behind the current shunt. A current flows through a resistor, and the voltage drop across the resistor is measured. If the resistance also is known, the current ...
There’s many different ways of measuring current. If it’s DC, the easiest way is to use a shunt resistor and measure the voltage across it, and for AC you could use a current transformer.
Offered in the 8518 and 8536 case sizes, WSBE series devices feature a proprietary processing technique that produces their extremely low resistance values. Combined with high power ratings and ...
A Chinese user has developed a prototype 16-pin connector that can determine if a certain pin is drawing too much current, preventing connector meltdowns.
As illustrated by BuildZoid below, on cards using 8-pin and 6-pin power connections, a typical GPU has a shunt resistor for each plug. On the 30-series, Nvidia treated its 12V connector as three ...
User Wing King posted images of a 12V-2x6 connector prototype on Bilibili, capable of monitoring current across each pin. The design has been developed to help monitor the current on each 12V pin of ...
Ideally, each of the six 12V pins should have its own shunt resistor. With the RTX 30 series, Nvidia included three shunt resistors, which, while adequate, is not ideal. The updated design ...
