>There's other solutions to this problem too. Look at isolation >amplifiers from TI(try ISO120) or Analog(try ad202 or ad210). I better solution is the Agilent HCPL-7800 which is designed for isolating motor current sense resistors in exactly the way described by the OP. get the application notes as well. These are great linear opto-isolators, but can handle only small input voltages. -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
