The current sense resister seems odd to me. I'm trying to make sense of the marking. The SRX uses a 0.5mOhm sense resistor (M50), but the SD540 has a marking of "50m", which doesn't make any sense to me since the math wouldn't add up (50mOhm). Is there an alternate interpretation of that marking?

I think R50M is 0.5mOhm. It's kind of a weird label, but it's the only thing that makes sense. http://www.tai.com.tw/index.php/en/p...istors/111-rlf

What's a current sense resistor doing here though? I didn't know it needed to measure current.

Also - I just noticed it has 8 FETs (two in parallel everywhere), compared to the Talon's 4. Kind of odd.
