1. An apparatus comprises:

  • a printed circuit board (PCB);

    a current sensor coupled to the printed circuit board, the current sensor including a first conductor portion to carry a first current to be measured by the current sensor;

    a second conductor portion to carry a second current;

    wherein the first conductor portion and the second conductor portion form a current divider to divide a third current;

    wherein the current sensor includes one or more input terminals to receive the first current from the PCB and one or more output terminals to supply the first current to the PCB; and

    wherein the second conductor is directly electrically connected to at least one of the one or more input terminals and at least one of the one or more output terminals.
