FUNCTION
Ground
Supply Voltage Input. Bypass to GND with a 0.1µF capacitor.
Power-Side Connection to the External Sense Resistor
Load-Side Connection for the External Sense Resistor
Voltage Output. VOUT is proportional to VSENSE ( VRS+ - VRS- ). Output impedance is
approximately 12kΩ.
No Connection. Not internally connected.
