Multiple Current Sensors

[tommsehurra]

Allow multiple Current Sensor readouts on the OSD Like the temperature sensors. Via i2c. This would help a lot with Solar on Planes and energy management

Problem with this, there are literally no 0V to 3.3V Logical Voltage Output Current sensors i can find. Maybe they are not available in my country but i'd imagine germany to have things like that. AliExpress does not have these either. ADC724 Current sensor.

How much current a you wanting to measure?

When I look at Ali Express for "hall current sensor", an assortment of ACS758LCB-050B/100B/200B-PFF-T come up for a dollar each. (50 amp, 100 amp, 200 amp).

For lower currents, the current sensors typically included on an FC are nothing more than a low-value resistor and maybe an op-amp.

Maximum 5A from solar... I will try to design a pcb suitable today. But would adding i2c for multiple sensors not work because of something?
