Reducing RFI Rectification Errors in In-Amp Circuits -  AN-671 Analog Devices Application Notes  (app note added 2/06)
Resistance, DC Current, AC Current & Frequency & Period Measurement Errors in Digital Multimeters AN-1389-2 -  Agilent Application Note  (added 6/06)
Scheme provides high-side current-sensing for white-LED drivers -  19-Feb-04 Issue of EDN  White LEDs find wide use in backlighting color-LCD screens in most portable devices, such as cellular phones, PDAs, and MP3 players. Multiple LEDs often connect in series to ensure that the same current flows through every LED. To forward-bias these LEDs, a voltage of 10 to 16V comes from an inductor-based boost regulator, such as an SP6690.... [Design Idea by Dimitry Goder, Sipex Corp, San Jose, CA]
Simple circuit provides high-side Current-sensing -  10/12/00 EDN-Design Ideas....In power supplies or battery chargers, you often need information about the current flowing in the high-side rail. Figure 1... [Design Idea by M Ossmann and B Kazay, Aachen University of Applied Sciences, Germany]
Solar Current Meter -  This circuit is used to measure the current from a solar panel. It has very low power loss for currents in the 0-10A range. It also works as a general purpose DC current meter. The circuit can be used on either the positive or negative side of a DC circuit.... [G. Forrest Cook]
Strain Gage Measurement using an AC Excitation -  AN-683 Analog Devices Application Notes  (app note added 2/06)

Topics on using the LM6181 New Current Feedback Amplifier  -  National Semiconductor Application Note  (app note added 2/06)
Transmitter accurately transfers voltage input -  15-May-03 Issue of EDN  When you connect remote sensors to a central process controller, a simple, robust, and commonly used interface is the 4- to 20-mA loop. The advantages of this current loop include the simplicity of just two twisted wires that share both power and signal, the loop's high noise immunity in harsh environments, and the de facto loop standard within the process-control industry.... [Design Idea by Clayton Grantham, National Semiconductor, Tucson, AZ]
Two Sensors Measure Three Line Currents -  09/01/95 EDN-Design Ideas.... EDN is migrating links. This link is not verified.  Search the "title" + "EDN" for new link.
Voltage reference improves JFET -  26-Oct-00 Issue of EDN-Design Ideas....The common JFET current-source in Figure 1a has average output impedance and depends heavily on the JFET's VP and IDSS variations. These manufacturing variations limit the initial accuracy of the current setpoint that the circuit can obtain with a fixed R1. Most users of JFET current-sources sample VP....PDF has several circuits, scroll to find this one.... [Design Idea by Clayton Grantham, National Semiconductor, Tucson, AZ]
Ways to Optimize the Performance of a Difference Amplifier -  AN-589 Analog Devices Application Notes  (app note added 2/06)This Application Note presents several ways to build and optimize the performance of a discrete difference amplifier. It also recommends amplifiers that will make the overall solution cost/performance competitive with monolithic instrument amplifiers.
