Hi,
The output rating of my CT is 100 mv/amp. I need to measure current from 0 to 1 amps. So when 1 amp current flowing the output of CT will be 100 mv AC signal. But i need to interface this with A/D in pic microcontroller. Since this is 100 mv 50 hz signal the conversion is not proper. Since this amplitude is too small i cant able to use bridge rectifier to convert this to DC and measure.
What should i do to interface CT with the A/D module of pic microcontroller?
Thanks,
Murugesh
