In this seminar current sensing techniques are presented that have the potential to fulfil the requirements of modern power converter applications.

Today, current information increasingly needs to be available in digital form for digital control or monitoring purposes. This requires the output signal of a particular current sensing technique to be acquired by an analogue-to-digital converter. As an example, shunt resistors have been used extensively in power electronics due to their low cost, small size, and relative simplicity, whilst providing reasonable accuracy.

To achieve higher integration, higher efficiency and enable more sophisticated control techniques.....
