However, the drawback is the crosstalk current effect between adjacent elements, which will lead to high measurement error. Although several solutions have been reported, they mainly focus on RSAs with high resistance (\u2265100 \u2126). There is a lack of research that addresses RSAs with resistor values below 100 \u2126. Here, we introduce a new circuit design named the dynamic zero current method (DZCM) to further decrease the measurement error. From the low value RSA test with ideal resistors, the DZCM exhibits lower error than the zero potential method (ZPM). In the case of the error variation ratio of amplifier offset voltage, the DZCM has a 4%\/mV (row) to 7%\/mV (column) ratio, while the ZPM has an almost 25%\/mV (row) to 45%\/mV (column) ratio and it increases with array size.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23031406","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,27]],"date-time":"2023-01-27T01:27:58Z","timestamp":1674782878000},"page":"1406","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Dynamic Zero Current Method to Reduce Measurement Error in Low Value Resistive Sensor Array for Wearable Electronics"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Huanqian","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"BME, National University of Singapore, Singapore 119077, Singapore"},{"name":"Shanghai Institute of Microsystem and Information Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shanghai 200050, China"},{"name":"China Nanhu Academy of Electronics and Information Technology, Jiaxing 314001, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jee Chin","family":"Teoh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"BME, National University of Singapore, Singapore 119077, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2859-5053","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jianfeng","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Bioelectronics, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Longteng","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"BME, National University of Singapore, Singapore 119077, Singapore"},{"name":"Research Center for Humanoid Sensing, Zhejiang Lab, Hangzhou 311121, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4019-9782","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chwee Teck","family":"Lim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"BME, National University of Singapore, Singapore 119077, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1606425","DOI":"10.1002\/adma.201606425","article-title":"Stretchable and Soft Electronics using Liquid Metals","volume":"29","author":"Dickey","year":"2017","journal-title":"Adv.
