Current-Sensing Topology with Multi Resistors in Parallel and Its Protection Circuit

Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Author must incorporate following comments:

1. Paper structure should be presented in systematic manner. At present this is missing in the article.

2. Title should be revised. "Research on" word should be removed from the title. Title should be professional and technically sound.

3. Improve the quality of Fig 16. Its visibility is poor.

4. Validation of results with previous publish results is required.

5. Put Notation section.

6. Put new relevant literatures.

7. Put conclusion section. 

8. Abstract is vague. It should be rewritten.

English need to be significant improvement. Improve the storytelling of the manuscript.

Reviewer 2 Report

1) In figure 15, no experimental results (graphs) are visible. The authors have shown only the experimental devices to conduct the experiment.

2) Number of references are very few.

3) Paper must be concluded appropriately in the form of 'Conclusion' section.

4) In Table 4, duty cycle has not been mentioned for Sine and Triangular waveform. Justify with reason.

5) Elaborate / Explain all the graphs in fig. 16 to show their significance.

6) A brief background (with some literature) must be provided in the Introduction section.

Reviewer 3 Report

In this study, an interesting approach for current sensing has been proposed, involving the utilization of multiple resistors arranged in parallel. By increasing the number of sensing resistors, the method appears to be solving the problems of high heat consumption and huge layout area occupation caused by peripheral switches and freewheeling diodes in the series sensing method. Some important points are as follows:

·       What is the reason for the implementation of this particular sensor? What are the comparative advantages of this sensor to other sensors? What are the deficiencies observed in other sensor technologies? To enhance the comprehensibility of the introduction and conclusion sections, it would be advantageous to provide explanations for these inquiries using simpler language.

·       What is the purpose of crest factor and peak factor explanations?

·       The accuracy of ripple estimation can be described in a slightly more detailed and understandable manner.

·       Figure 15 may additionally depict the hardware circuit. There could be a single number instead of 14 and 15.

 

·       Waveforms in Figure 16 will be more understandable if the background is used as white.

 

English requires some attention.
