  2. Current sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_sensing

    In electrical engineering, current sensing is any one of several techniques used to measure electric current. The measurement of current ranges from picoamps to tens of thousands of amperes. The selection of a current sensing method depends on requirements such as magnitude, accuracy, bandwidth, robustness, cost, isolation or size. The current ...

  3. Measurement and signature intelligence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measurement_and_Signature...

    Remote sensing geometry—relationships between scanning sensor and target The instantaneous field of view (IFOV) is the area from which radiation currently impinges on the detector. The swath width is the distance, centered on the sensor path, from which signal will be captured in a single scan.

  4. Hall effect sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_effect_sensor

    The current's charge carriers are deflected by the Lorentz force in the presence of a magnetic field perpendicular to their flow. The sensing electrodes measure the potential difference (the Hall voltage) proportional to the axial component of the magnetic field that is perpendicular to both the current's axis and the sensing electrodes' axis. [5]

  5. Biobattery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biobattery

    Like any battery, bio-batteries consist of an anode, cathode, separator, and electrolyte with each component layered on top of another. Anodes and cathodes are the positive and negative areas on a battery that allow electrons to flow in and out. The anode is located at the top of the battery and the cathode is located at the bottom of the battery.

  6. Electric current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_current

    The electrons, the charge carriers in an electrical circuit, flow in the direction opposite that of the conventional electric current. The symbol for a battery in a circuit diagram. The conventional direction of current, also known as conventional current, [10] [11] is arbitrarily defined as the direction in which positive charges flow.

  7. Four-terminal sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-terminal_sensing

    Four-point measurement of resistance between voltage sense connections 2 and 3. Current is supplied via force connections 1 and 4. In electrical engineering, four-terminal sensing (4T sensing), 4-wire sensing, or 4-point probes method is an electrical impedance measuring technique that uses separate pairs of current-carrying and voltage-sensing electrodes to make more accurate measurements ...

  8. Faraday's law of induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_law_of_induction

    Indeed, a galvanometer's needle measured a transient current (which he called a "wave of electricity") on the right side's wire when he connected or disconnected the left side's wire to a battery. [10]: 182–183 This induction was due to the change in magnetic flux that occurred when the battery was connected and disconnected. [7]

  9. SQUID - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQUID

    Electrical schematic of a SQUID where is the bias current, is the critical current of the SQUID, is the flux threading the SQUID and is the voltage response to that flux. The X-symbols represent Josephson junctions. Left: Plot of current vs. voltage for a SQUID.
