Hi.
I am using IL300 optocoupler for my voltage isolation (except 1 output voltage value rest all linear to the input). I want to use the same for current sensing and connect it to my ADC. I am not sure if for the current sensing its the same circuit as mentioned in the datasheet under typical application circuit or its different.
The current range I want to measure is from 1 amps to 2 amps.
I am using a voltage divider circuit for my voltage sensor configuration and I believe it should be the same for my current sensing circuit.
my load is 185 ohms and my power resistor (across which I am measuring the voltage) is 1 ohms with 25W.
I am not sure if this will help or not, my microcontroller is PIC18F4550 and I am using external oscillator.
