Current Limiter Configuration

For the current limiting, the settings are shown below. Refer to Figure 2-3.

  • CFG setting with current limiter enabled
  • IMONOUT jumper J12 removed
  • SYNC connected to VCC for forward current limit
  • IMONOUT with resistor and capacitor in series to GND - see Figure 2-2

Note: EMV shows only placeholder for components. Names and symbols do not always reflect the component type and value which are placed there. For example, CR18: 2.2nF and R17: 700Ω
