Abstract :
A new and improved design of the JV current shunts for 30 to 100 mA has been developed. The new shunts use surface-mount resistors mounted in a star configuration. AC-DC difference less than 3 muA/A at 100 kHz and less than 5 muA/A at 300 kHz has been achieved. Calculated and measured values agree very well.
