Hello to all! I'm doing a battery monitoring card with the MAX1660. The card basicaly has a high current loop (this loop has the pack external connector, the battery connector and a 30mOhm resistor to measure the current). My doubt is: where should I put the analog sampling part of the MAX1660? Solution 1 +Near the sense resistor Pro: -> minimize the trace length from the sense resistor to the analog input Con: -> more vulnerable to noise Solution 2 +Far from the sense resistor Pro: -> avoid the noise generated by the high current loop Con: -> the trace length from the sense resistor to the analog input is bigger Maxim in the MAX1660 Eval kit puts the Max1660 far from the high current loop (the trace from the sense resistor is bigger). Is this the best solution?
