Shunt resistance is a device that dissipates power when current flows through it. These resistors are designed to be high-resistance to current but have a low-temperature coefficient of resistance. This makes it ideal for measuring the amount of current flowing through the system. A shunt resistor is also very easy to use. The following are some of...

Shunt resistors are typically used in electrical circuits for measuring current flow. They dissipate power when they are not in use, and they are ideal for low-voltage applications. Their resistance value is low and their temperature coefficient of resistance is low, so they provide an accurate measurement. In addition, they are RoHS compliant,...

DC Shunts are very low-ohm resistors used to measure current. They are connected in parallel with the measuring device. The entire current flows through the shunt. The resistance of the shunt is determined by the voltage drop across it, and the current is calculated from the voltage drop. Ohm's law is used to calculate the resistance. DC shunts...
