8.1.5 Maximum Output Current

The XTR117 provides accurate, linear output up to 25mA. Internal circuitry limits the output current to approximately 32mA to protect the transmitter and loop power or measurement circuitry.

Extending the output current range of the XTR117 is possible by connecting an external resistor from pin 3 to pin 5 to change the current limit value.

CAUTION: All output current must flow through internal resistors; therefore, damage is possible with excessive current. Output currents greater than 45mA can cause permanent damage.
