Hi folks,
I've just had a look at the AN606 application note from microchip
I'm having problems in calculating the average current from the current profiles given in figures 3 and 4 (page 2) (The values of current are also shown on page 1, Table 1). This voltage is across a 99.4 ohm resistor (Rg).
For fig 3 I get:
Power-up region:
Vaverage = 40mv
Iaverage = 40mv/99.4 = 400 microAmps
Active region
Vaverage = 84mv
Iaverage = 84mv/99.4 = 840 microAmps
Sleep region
Vaverage ~ 6mv
Iaverage ~ 6mv/99.4 = 60 microAmps
The above does not give the correct answers (found on Table 1; 261KHz RC mode) - anyone know what i'm doing wrong?
regards,
Ozzy
