Typical Application

The following text describes how to scale a load current to an output voltage.{ l } V _ { S E N S E } = V _ { I N } - V _ { L O A D } V _ { O U T } = 0 . 0 1 x V _ { S E N S E } x R o u T ^ { 1 }E.g.

A 1A current is to be represented by a 100mV output voltage:
1. Choose the value of RSENSE to give 50mV >

VSENSE > 500mV at full load.

For example VSENSE = 100mV at 1.0A.

RSENSE = 0.1/1.0 => 0.1 Ω .

Choose ROUT to give VOUT = 100mV, when

VSENSE = 100mV.

Rearranging 1 for Rout gives:

ROUT = VOUT /(VSENSE x 0.01)

ROUT = 0.1 / (0.1 x 0.01) = 100 Ω
