Hi,
I am getting the current reading of approx. little over 140ma for both side (r1 and R2) after the fine tuning of the shunt to about .053v (53ma) with the load. Is the 140ma correct? It was adjusted to .25v (250ma) before the adjustment for the shunt setting.
Thanks, Milton

Hi Russ,
Not sure I understood your question.
I was just checking the R1 and R2 for the current readings after I adjusted VR1 and VR2 (via R13 and R14) for the shunted current.
Hope this helps on clarifying my question for checking the R1 and R2 reading of about 140ma each side to make sure the readings are as expected.
Thanks, Milton

Ok, then based on your measurements things look just fine. Your setup should work well.
