Abstract

A single wound single current transformer impedance measurement circuit for determining a circuit element parameter in a ground fault circuit interrupter circuit. The circuit includes a transconductance amplifier having first and second input terminals and first and second output terminals. In an embodiment, a first detector has input terminal coupled to the first output terminal of the transconductance amplifier and another input terminal coupled for receiving a first electrical signal. A second detector has a terminal coupled to the second output terminal of the transconductance amplifier and an input terminal coupled for receiving the first electrical signal. Alternatively, the second detector has an input terminal coupled to the first output terminal of the transconductance amplifier and another input terminal coupled for receiving the first electrical signal.
