PRODUCTION DATA
Voltage at IMON pin VIMON 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 maximum IMON pin voltage at full-scale load current. The maximum IMON pin voltage must be selected based on the input voltage range of the ADC used or the value suggested in VIMON(Max) Recommended Values, whichever is lower. RIMON is set using Equation 15.
For ILIM = 18 A and considering the operating range of ADC to be 0 V to 3.3 V, RIMON can be calculated as,
Selecting RIMON value less than shown in Equation 16 ensures that ADC limits are not exceeded for maximum value of load current. Choose closest available standard value: 732 Ω, 1%.
