9.2.2.9 Choosing the Current Monitoring Resistor, RIMON

Voltage at IMON pin V(IMON) is proportional to the output load current. This can be connected to an ADC of the downstream system for monitoring the operating condition and health of the system. The RIMON must be selected based on the maximum load current and the input voltage range of the ADC used. RIMON is set using Equation 23.

Equation 23. V(IMON)=(VSNS+V(OS_SET))×0.9×RIMONRSET

Where VSNS = IOC × RSNS and V(OS_SET) is the input referred offset (± 200µV) of the current sense amplifier.

For IOC = 15A and considering the operating range of ADC to be 0V to 3.3V (for example, V(IMON) = 3.3V), RIMON can be calculated as:

Equation 24. RIMON=VIMON×RSETVSNS+VOS_SET×0.9=16.52kΩ

Selecting an RIMON value less than shown in Equation 24 verifies that ADC limits are not exceeded for maximum value of load current. Choose the closest available standard value: 16.5kΩ, 1%.
