Method and device for measuring current

摘要

A method and an electronic device are disclosed for measuring a current. The device measures a temperature between a first sampling point and a second sampling point on a metal structure carrying a current to be measured. The device outputs a first signal according to the measured temperature and a second signal after sampling and filtering the first signal. The device detects the first voltage signal at the first sampling point and the second voltage signal at the second sampling point. The device samples and filters a difference between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal and outputs a third voltage signal. The device restores the second signal to a temperature value representing a temperature between the first sampling point and the second sampling point and calculates a resistance value between the first sampling point and the second sampling point according to the temperature value.
