POWER DISSIPATION
The maximum allowable power dissipation of the
device for normal operation (Pmax), is a function of
the package junction to ambient thermal resistance
( ja), maximum junction temperature (Tjmax), and
ambient temperature (Tamb), according to the

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The following lines describe how to scale a load
current to an output voltage.
E.g.
A 1A current is to be represented by a 100mV output
voltage:
1)Choose the value of R
> 500mV at full load.
For example V
0.1/1.0 => 0.1 ohms.
2)Choose R
100mV.
