Hey guys, I'm building a little automated pump project and I was wanting to install a current sense circuit in line with the 12V DC pump so I can output it's current consumption to the IC using an ADC pin.
My issue is I am only really experienced in sensing lower currents using a low value resistor with an op amp. And a resistor with a current rating of 10A-15A is a little bit rediculous.
Any suggestions on what sort of circuit I could use?
Cheers
