Selecting Sense Resistor

Power dissipation in sense resistors and the input offset error voltage of the op amps are important in selecting the sense resistance values. This design uses two sense resistors in parallel. Individually, each sense resistor is designed to carry a nominal RMS current of greater than 60 A, which combined in parallel allows for a total nominal RMS current exceeding 120 A. Choose the sense resistor according to power needs during design. A high sense resistance value increases the power loss in the resistors. The internal op amps of the MSPM0G1507 have an input offset error of 1.5 mV.
