What is shunting resistance?
(1/1)
ballsystemlord:
I tried to search, but I only got shunt resistor results, which is not what I'm looking for.
I was reading this: https://download.tek.com/document/Obtaining_More_Accurate_WP.pdf
I'm not understanding at all what the top half of the 2nd page is trying to convey. If I measure between points 1 and 8, there's only one resistor there, so I should get an accurate result, right?
Thanks!
soldar:
The current is also going through all the other resistors. Look carefully.
ballsystemlord:
Ah, yes. So that's what they mean. Thanks!
