PRODUCTION DATA
For this example, assuming a peak current of less than 15 A, the Current_LSB is calculated to be 457.7 μA/bit using Equation 2. Selecting a value for the Current_LSB of 500 μA/bit or 1 mA/bit significantly simplifies the conversion of the returned value from the READ_IIN and READ_PIN commands to amperes and watts. For this example, a value of 1 mA/bit is chosen for the Current_LSB. Using this value for the Current_LSB does trade a small amount of resolution for having a simpler conversion process on the user side. Using Equation 1 in this example with a Current_LSB value of 1 mA/bit and a shunt resistor of 2 mΩ results in a MFR_CALIBRATION register value of 2560d (or A00h).
