1. If the voltage on Vctrl (the negative input of the amplifier) is higher than the positive amplifier input, and it is increased by
1mV, the sinking current at the output OUT will be increased by 3.5 mA.
2. The internal voltage reference is set at 2.5 V. The voltage control loop precision takes into account the cumulative effects of
the internal voltage reference deviation as well as the input offset voltage of the transconductance operational amplifier.
The internal voltage reference is fixed by bandgap, and trimmed to 0.48 % accuracy at room temperature.
3. When the inverting input at Isense is greater than 50 mV, and the voltage is increased by 1 mV, the sinking current at the
output Out will be increased by 7 mA.
4. The internal current sense threshold is triggered when the voltage on pin Isense is 50 mV. The current control loop
precision takes into account the cumulative effects of the internal voltage reference deviation as well as the input offset
voltage of the transconductance operational amplifier.
