PRODUCTION DATA.
The sense amplifiers are configured to be unidirectional through the registers on SPI devices by writing a 0 to the VREF_DIV bit.
The sense amplifier gain and sense resistor values are selected based on the target current range, VREF, power rating of the sense resistor, and operating temperature range. In unidirectional operation of the sense amplifier, use Equation 24 to calculate the approximate value of the dynamic range at the output.
Use Equation 25 to calculate the approximate value of the selected sense resistor.
where
From Equation 24 and Equation 25, select a target gain setting based on the power rating of a target sense resistor.
