Before we dive into the specifics, let's understand what a shunt resistor actually is. A shunt resistor is a passive electrical component that's designed to provide a low-resistance pathway for electric current in a circuit. In a direct current (DC) circuit, a shunt resistor is connected in parallel to the load, diverting a fraction of the current away from the load and creating a known voltage drop across the resistor.
