uCurrent and clones question
« on: November 25, 2024, 12:35:38 am »
I understand the principal of how the current amplification works but the question that I can't resolve is that if the resistance of your test leads or wires to the inputs of the uCurrent/clones add to the error budget especially in the .01 ohms range? Say you have crap China test leads that are .5 ohms or worse each.

That's degrades the burden voltage but does not impact the current measurement  accuracy.

Thats what my thoughts were leaning towards, thanks for the sanity check.
