8.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure

The resistor RS must be selected such that current IR remains in the operational region of the part for the entire VIN range and load current range. The two extremes to consider are VIN at the minimum, and the load at the maximum, where RS must be small enough for IR to remain above IRMIN. The other extreme is VIN at the maximum, and the load at the minimum, where RS must be large enough to maintain IR < IRMAX. For most designs, 0.1mA ≤ IR ≤ 1mA is a good starting point.

Use Equation 2 and Equation 3 to set RS between RS_MIN and RS_MAX.
