s HOW TO SET OUTPUT CURRENT
The output circuit is configured in a push-pull type as shown in Figure 1. The ON current value of the output current waveform shown in Figure
2 is a constant current and the OFF value set by RE is set by a time constant. Each output current can be calculated from the following expression:
• ON current = 1.5/RE (A) (Output current setting pin voltage: VE ≈ 1.5 V)
• The OFF current time constant is proportional to the value of CB.
