Abstract
A method and circuit for implementing high current capability Kelvin connections and measuring the resistance of the contacts and connections to verify that the conducting path is capable of carrying the high current without damage or degraded performance. Included as well is the means and circuit for efficiently dividing a high current test stimulus current into 2 paths with low losses and voltage drops.
