So depending on ohm’s law “ ”, we have a shunt resistor, and we have a current passing
𝑉 = 𝐼 · 𝑅
through it, so the voltage will be generated around it. And then we will measure this voltage using the
multimeter, this way we have converted the current into voltage.
8.4.1 Example
In this circuit, we are going to use a 7.5 Ω resistor as a shunt, and calculate the current using
Ohm’s law.
Now, we need to measure the voltage around the 7.5 Ω shunt resistor using the multimeter.
