We can use a shunt resistor and ammeter concept to find out how much maximum current a transformer can give, in other words, we are trying to know the current rating or amp capacity of a transformer. If you do not wish to read the full article below, you can feel free to watch the […]

How to Measure Very Low Current [Circuit Diagram]
Accurately measuring very low currents of a few microamps or less using a regular panel meter or multimeter is not feasible. To make such precise measurements, you need to employ an active circuit, like the one depicted here. This circuit low current ammeter circuit can be constructed as a self-contained unit or integrated into an […]
2 Simple Milliohm Meter Circuits [Measure Low Resistances below 1 Ohm with these Circuits]
The low resistance measuring circuit I have explained below can be used for measuring all milliohm resistances below 1 ohm with extreme accuracy. The resistance to be measured can be as low as 0.01 ohm or 10 milliohm. The output of the circuit converts the resistance value to exactly equivalent volts, which means the output […]
How to Measure Gain (β) of a BJT
In this post we’ll study a simple opamp circuit design which can be applied for measuring the beta or the forward current gain of a particular BJT in question. What is beta (β) The beta (β) is the forward current gain that every BJT inherently possesses. It determines the efficiency of the particular device in terms […]
What’s PWM, How to Measure it
PWM stands for pulse width modulation which signifies the variable nature of the pulse widths that may be generated from a particular source such as a discrete IC, MCU, or a transistorized circuit. What’s PWM In simple terms a PWM process is nothing but switching ON and OFF a supply voltage at a particular rate […]
How to Measure Dissolved Oxygen in Liquids
In this post I have explained a sensor device used for measuring the level or amount of dissolved oxygen in water and other fluids. The idea was requested by Mr. Amit Technical Specifications I didn’t find sensors or sensor modules for Dissolved Oxygen or pH readings for us to use with controllers for our projects. […]
