Interfacing Isolated DO with External Loads
Connecting to external resistive loads
Figure 3-15 presents connecting to external resistive loads. The
left side illustrates driving an external LED using the internal
ISOPWR source; the right side illustrates driving an external 5W,
24-VDC Bulb using an external power supply.
