High side current indicator/


schematic


simulate this circuit – Schematic created using CircuitLab Hi! I am in need to make a high-side current monitor for detecting whether load (R1) is present or not. As currents running through my system are in range of few amps, I have tried my best with a small shunt resistor to keep voltage drop below 0.3V and used comparator in hope to get binary output. Unfortunately the output of the system is also high in absence of load.


Could you suggest me some simple solution to this (potentially) trivial problem?

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
