SLUU224A May 2005 – March 2022 TPS40100
The TPS40100EVM-001 provides the user with remote sense capabilities. Remote sense is used to provide more accurate load regulation by compensating for losses over terminal connections and load wire resistance.
When remote sense is used properly, the converter will regulate the voltage at the point where sense connections are placed. These remote sense connections are usually placed at the intended load. As the load is increased the direct output of the converter will rise to compensate for IR losses.
