AI Article Synopsis
- The circuit can accurately measure tiny currents in the nanoampere range while operating at very high voltages (up to 25kV).
- It transmits its measurement data to a grounded system using optical fiber for safety.
- The focus is on the design and construction methods that ensure the circuit operates reliably, even when exposed to high voltage spikes and discharges.
Article Abstract
A circuit capable of measuring nanoampere currents while floating at voltages up to at least 25kV is described. The circuit relays its output to ground potential via an optical fiber. We particularly emphasize the design and construction techniques, which allow robust operation in the presence of high voltage spikes and discharges.
