The current sense circuit provide a current output that is proportional to the load current and this current will be sourced into an external resistor to create a voltage that is proportional to the load current. This voltage may be measured by either an external ADC or by the internal ADC. To ensure accurate sensing measurement, the sensing resistor should be connected to the IC GND pin if using the internal ADC. On the other hand, if using the MCU ADC, then the sensing resistor should be connected to the same ground potential as the microcontroller ADC.
The 10-bit digital current sense output can be read from the ADC_RESULT_CHx_I (H2 shown as example) register. The ISNS_RDY_CHx bit is set if the ADC conversion result is updated in the register from the last time the register was read.
